New Hobbit Trailer
 
Old Hobbit thread seems to have fallen away, but whatevs, new trailer is here! (I suggest clicking through for full quality!)



Link for HD downloading.

And what's more, the official site has a flash version where you can choose one of four additional ending bits which consist of: Gandalf telling Bilbo that the dwarves placed bets on whether he'd show up, Bilbo reading the contract, Elrond translating sword runes, and a Gollum/Sméagol moment. (All of which I think are actually better than the "real" ending.... >> )

EDIT: HD Trailers now has download links for the alt. trailers.

This is pretty much going to be me all the way to release date

Hmm, is that shiny veneer over everything from that 48fps shenanigans? Anyway, looks like something I won't be missing, although still a little confused as to what the third movie is going to entail (if it's going to be that bridge movie, or if it's going to be spread out over three movies...)

Fuggin' Gollum
 
I remember asking my parents at some young-ish age if they had any fantasy books and finding an old copy of The Hobbit on their bookshelves (and not my brother's, surprisingly). So you could say this story is the reason why I came to know of Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings. I'm very happy for that.

This tale is definitely a good one, despite my typical eye-rolling at dwarves and dreading what I knew would inevitably happen to Smaug (I often root for the dragon). It definitely made me appreciate hobbits, especially ones as lucky as Bilbo. It's exciting to see them putting the same quality effort towards making a movie for it.

The latter. The "bridge movie" concept went away as soon as they wrote the script, back when Guillermo Del Toro was going to direct.

When it was just two movies, the split was going to occur after the barrel riding sequence. Now it seems the first movie will end with the eagles rescuing them from the wargs and goblins in the burning glade. (You'll notice that nothing that occurs after that part of the book shows up in this new trailer.)

Could be Eagles, or it could end after Gollum...

Reverence. Joy. Anticipation. Frustration towards the limitations of linear time.

Rebuttal:
SPOILER except it was in the trailer so not really but still just in casehttp://www-images.theonering.org/ima...iler02-126.jpg


Oh and also, someone did go and put those alt. trailer endings into one video, so if you didn't feel like wading through the trailer 5 times, well, here you go:

"the desolation of Smaug"?

What, are they getting to the Lonely Mountain in the second film?

I wonder if they'll try to make some of the third movie the bit where Bilbo ran into some other trouble, "but was never in any real danger".
