What event causes change in Bilbo?
Bilbo's personality changed quite a lot. He was, in the beginning a coward, who would rather stay inside and have company than go out on an adventure (as were all hobbits). Over the course of the quest, he became a brave warrior, willing to fight for his friends. he also became a bit crooked near the end of the hobbit, due to the power of the Ring.
What was Bilbo's role in the dwarves' quest?
Bilbo is hired by 13 dwarves as a thief or burglar, as well as to make the party 14 rather than 13.

Is Bilbo a thief?
Technically, Bilbo became a burglar in chapter 5, Riddles in the Dark, when he stole the Ring from Gollum. Thorin said, "...now is the time for him to perform the service for which he was included in our Company..." So yes, in chapter 12 Bilbo did what he was supposed to do all along. Be a burglar.

Are fili and Kili brothers?
Indeed they are. Fili is the older and more responsible one, whereas Kili is more carefree and does not feel the pressure of royalty as much as his older brother. Fili and Kili were both born of Dis, Thorin Oakenshield's sister. So, to Thorin, they are his sister-sons, and to Fili and Kili, Thorin is their uncle. They became rather close to Thorin, who became their idol, and developed a thirst to impress him.
Why does Thorin refuse Bard his requests for treasure in The Hobbit?
Thorin was a proud and stubborn dwarf, and like all dwarves was a bit too fond of his gold. The notion of sharing his fathers' hard won treasure with anyone, even the Lake Men, was not to be borne.Basically Thorin is overwhelmed by greed for the wealth of Smaug's hoard. There is far more wealth than he could possibly use, but rather than share it with his neighbours, he wants it all to himself.But although this is at the bottom of his behaviour, there is some sense in his anger. He must feel like a man who has won the lottery, and all of a sudden, everyone is his friend and wants a piece of the winnings. Indeed there can be no doubt that that is exactly why Bard and the Elvenking have come to the mountain, believing Thorin and his companions to be dead. Greed is pretty high in their minds too. Thorin's response to the Elvenking is particularly telling--why should Thorin be nice to a guy who locked him in the dungeons. (Ironically, Thorin was apprehended by the elves for begging)

Why is legolas in The Hobbit movie?
Thorin and Gandalf had a discussion which eventually led to the expedition to Erebor. Thorin was to be the next king of Erebor and therefore was able to round up all the dwarves in the area to go on the adventure. He turned out to be a poor leader and it was a good thing Bilbo went along. Thorin was good at giving speeches and was a great warrior, even though he died because of his wounds in battle. Thorin's desire to retake Erebor set the events in motion that led to Smaug's demise.
