There are definitely some interesting structures within The Hobbit, such as, as you point out, the death of Smaug not being the climax of the book, just the opening of the final act.
One of the songs I want to do in Lord of the Rings Online involves a rewrite of the lyrics to Chicago's 25 or 6 to 4 as Five Armies Battle At My Door. Had the idea months ago, haven't really pursued it. I'll get there eventually. Converting/remixing the music isn't too difficult, but getting the words to work well and convey a good story is another thing entirely.
