Smaug was fiery, tempestous, and flying, and has a fantastic voice. He makes red and green flames and is golden, which makes a lovely sight. He lives close to Esgaroth, which is a very lovely place. (Thus, he obviously has good taste.) Besides, he was killed by one of the coolest Men in Middle-Earth.
Glaurung is a stupid and lazy worm who cannot fly and gets stabbed by Túrin, who is not of the most adorable characters in Middle-Earth.
