They must send pronunciation guides to all the sportscasters and annoucers who have to promote this movie during their telecasts - they have all been very consistent in how they say "Smaug" rhyming with "ow".

When I read it as a kid, I thought 'Smaug' sounded like "smog", with the 'au' sounding like it does in "augment".
