TDKR trailer: dope
The Hobbit trailer: doper
Prometheus trailer: dopest

All of these movies releasing within 6 months of eachother: I need new pants
 
Every video and trailer I see related to this movie makes me feel good. The cast's enthusiasm is infectious and Peter Jackson is a lovely man. Gonna be so great visiting the Shire again. :P

Isn't it actually two new Malick films next year, magically? Or maybe just two under development. Either way, it's great to see him so active (provided no unfortunate personal reasons prompted it).
 
Unless the Riddles in the dark scenes in the trailer are trailer exclusive, the clothes that bilbo wears and how the ring is placed doesn't match up with FOTR prologue.

Interesting..

There's his sixth feature , which he should be done with soon, and he said back in August that he wants to finish the IMAX short The Voyage of Time after it's finished. Then starting in June he's shooting two new films back to back.

It's pretty crazy. He was long the legendary disappeared filmmaker of the 70s, but it looks like he might end up being remembered as a prolific filmmaker of the 10s.

If they're doing what I think they're doing, it's really quite clever.

Remember, Tolkien wrote two different versions of that chapter (he changed it after LOTR came out).
 
Trailer was gud. Better than that boring nonsense they released for TDKR. (Nolan is apparently not in any way interested in continuing the story after the third film :/ )

I liked the slightly sillier, lighter tone in the trailer. Though honestly I haven't doubted Jackson's ability to deliver since he knocked it out of the park with the LotR trilogy.

Yep, I was about to say.
 
I didn't like that trailer at all, the entire first part of it came dangerously close to self-parody and I was half-expecting a record scratch sound effect to stop the music and one of the dwarves to say a "Funny" line or fart.

But the portrayal of Gollum in the original chapter is very different, he's far more passive and less attached to his 'present' and that is in conflict with his character portrayal in the trilogy. I don't know how they could reconcile the differences effectively (Bilbo's perspective of the event versus what actually occurred).

hehe,
I actually thought that too.
Not sure why.. too familiar?
 
I think it would have worked my sense of nostalgia better if i hadn't just rewatched Lotr on blu ray. More than the characters, would have loved to be teased more about new locations.

They don't have to use that exactly as originally written, but the reason Tolkien gave for the retcon of that scene is the setup they're using for old Bilbo and Frodo being in the movie.

He's shooting two films next year, but only releasing one (The Burial, or whatever it's called).

There's also Voyage of Time, but that's not really the same thing and who knows what's going on with that anyway.

Hobbit > TDKR > Prometheus.

Yeah, I said it.

I'm really excited. I mean, I've gotten a bit burnt out on the LotR-films after so many years (I only watch 'em once a year now, in a marathon session with some friends), but dammit, that trailer made me excited for more.
 
the trailer did feel kind of off pace for the first half but once the dwarfs started singing it really picked up, really happy :D

Just remember Ridley Scott has made pretty much all shit for the last 11 years. The movie still looks cool and I'm REALLY hoping it'll be incredible but yeah...

Ridley Scott is inconsistant but it's an inconsistancy that ranges from 'good' to 'mind-blowingly amazing'.

As far as the trailers go, The Hobbit and Prometheus were both great to me in different ways.
 
Man I've rewatched the trailer probably 10 times now... haven't been this excited since I saw the first LOTR trailer. I love the song, it also seems to be the theme for AUJ and it's already my favorite of "all" LOTR movies!

Love the fact that they've built Hobbiton permanently now! I'm so childish when it comes to this stuff, I love that the set is actually alive in real life, that the actors are inhabiting a real world.

I genuinely will want to choose to get married in Hobbiton. It's the only place I would be sure about. If I can find a girl who feels the same now..
