Cumberbatch, who also plays dark spirit Necromancer in “The Hobbit” films, said Smaug’s characteristics could convey a more contemporary social message.

“You could read him as some sort of emblem for all that’s gone wrong in the past decade with free market capitalism if you wanted to.


Smaug does nothing to create his own wealth but simply takes from others who were successful. He lays around doing nothing and creates a nasty smell in the residence he does not own or pay for.

Sounds more like an indictment of the typical obama voter
