I'll never understand that move. Completely ruined the ending of the second film for me, and makes me worried the third one is going to feel rushed so that they can have Smaug's smotation AND get all the shit set up for the battle.

Spoilers for the book
If this is really like the book, he'll probably go down like a bitch in the opening scene. He didn't really last long.
Get Edmond on the line, but from everything I remember
he was merely "driven out" of Dol Guldur by the members of the White Council.

to be fair having rewatched the trailer
she does seem to be cradling Gandalf surrounded by the nine so she may fuck them up, but later on it seems like shes on the floor broken holding onto someone else so who knows
v interested to see if they play up the Saruman/Sauron alliance

What about The Two Towers?
Well, I like The Hobbit movies more than the last two LOTR movies.
Fellowship of the Ring continues to tower over them all, though.

Better than I was expecting. Sounds like Shore finally decided to give a damn for this final soundtrack.
Also, this is no longer Bilbo's story. The main character gets 10 seconds of screentime and one line. Shame.

I'm pretty sure that's not Shore's work.

Um... I'm confused.
I thought the bad guy was Smaug. Who's the bad guy for this movie? I don't know what to expect.

Jesus, God no.
Soundtrack in the trailer was great. Build-up was great too. And then I saw the love interest again, Legolas and so many CG Orks that I reigned in my expectations again.
Well, it probably will at least be entertaining.
Kind of book spoilers for those that don't want it answered:
He is, but multiple races want to claim the treasure that he has. Battle of the five armies.

I hope theaters do a triple feature with all three Hobbit movies. I did the double feature for DoS and it was awesome.
Peter Jackson being dead this whole time would certainly explain why the Hobbit movies have been so bad.

Looks pretty terrible imho, just like the other two hobbit movies.
I still maintain that turning the book into a single, more light hearted movie, would be way better than the mess of a story they got in this trilogy.

Maybe they should use sock puppets. They're "actually there".
My first thought...
Come on WB... don't hold back. Be the first film to release a 48fps trailer online!

What an amazing first reply. :lol
I like both Hobbit films more than the LotR films, but I would not go anywhere near that far.

I have no clue about The Hobbit (or any of the LOTR books) in general, so I was shocked when the dragon didn't die at end of DOS. I enjoyed DOS much more than Hobbit 1 but I will check this out when it hits VOD
I hate going to the movies at the actual cinema

Yeah, it's fan fiction.

But... it did. At the end of DoS, two things have happened:
1) The Dwarves have reclaimed Erebor and their treasure.
2) Smaug is flying to Lake-town to set it on fire.
Literally everything that happens in the trailer is the direct result of at least one of these things.

There are scenes in the trailer that are directly related to the events at the end of that movie, and there are scenes occurring in Lake Town which is where Smaug was headed at the end.
it's based on a children's book. that's what i meant.
