Biter was a blade forged in Gondolin, and slew many goblins.
The goblins recognized the sword from earlier days. It had been used in the great goblin wars and had killed many of them.
The Great Goblin
The leader of the Goblins of the Misty Mountains in the Hobbit was called simply The Great Goblin. After the death of the Great Goblin, the goblins of the Misty Mountains were ruled by Bolg, son of Azog.... who knew there were female orcs...
I take it you mean the great Goblin? well in the film the great goblin was going to take Thorin to Azog the defiler, as they both had unfinished business together. Bilbo had fallen down into the caves below, where he finds the One ring Gandalf rescues the dwarfs and they all have a battle
'Beater and Biter' are names that the goblins/orcs gave to two swords: Glamdring, ancient sword of the King of Gondolin, and Orcrist, another famous and ancient blade. Being forged by elves, the two swords glowed blue in the presence of orcs. You see, in Middle-earth, people and especially orcs know the names of the most famous swords, as well they should, considering how many of their kind they lose to them. Thorin and Gandalf took these swords from the trolls' cave, and used them from then on. "Glamdring" means "foe-hammer" (the "dring" part means "hammer"), hence "Beater". "Orcrist" means "orc-cutter", hence "Biter". The orc-names are based on the Elvish names. In the Silmarillion, Tolkien described the city of Gondolin and its king, Turgon, who was Elrond's great-grandfather.
There are so many conflicts. The goblins of the Misty Mountains were a huge conflict, but also the wild wolves, the giant spiders, the wood elves, and of course the most important conflict of all, Smaug the Great Dragon.

in the war of goblins and elves or dwarf's (i forget which) the swords carried by gandalf and Thorin were both used by great warriors, who killed many goblins using the swords, the swords are synonymous with goblin death. they even went so far as to call the swords beater and bitter

Tolkien describes the wargs in "The Hobbit" as large, fierce, evil wolves that are in league with goblins and are under the control of the goblin leader, the Great Goblin. They are depicted as being cunning, cruel, and capable of communication with one another.
because they were afraid

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.
By 'the hobbit', I'm supposing you mean Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit? If so, he faced Smaug the Great Dragon, King of the Lonely Mountain.
The most suspenseful of the four is most likely The Hobbit. Though they are all great if I had to choose one, it would be The Hobbit.
