Looks alright; too much CGI backdrops, which is giving me a Star Wars prequel vibe. But I loved the singing, and the Gollum appearance gave me nerd chills

Cool trailer. Hate the subtitle. Music mix was a little weird at the end, I could see what they were going for.

I have a feeling though that many of the people who liked the LOTR movies will find this might not be their kind of thing. Less action and more lighthearted fun.

Maybe it's because I just saw the Prometheus trailer before this one, but this looks tame. What's the budget/scale for The Hobbit?

it's not the teaser. it's a really high/nice quality cam vid of what's coming on Thursday. it's looking pretty incredible.

Looks great. I love Peter Jackson and I LOVE the cast of this movie. Particularly Martin Freeman as Bilbo. Perfect casting.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle Gollum in this movie – whether they stick to his original model or completely redesign him. I hope they go for the latter, because Gollum looks atrocious now on repeat viewings of the LOTR trilogy.

Gollum was the only one I thought stood out. The rest was pretty good (aside from the fact that the sweeping shots were obviously NZ.)

The CG in LOTR is mostly still great other than Gollum. The battle at Helm's Deep? omg dat CG

can't do much better than WETA. They're the industry standard, as far as I'm concernced

This movie will make PD yearn for Kiwiland even more.

I always liked the Hobbit more the LOTR as a book, so hope the movie will be the same

It's funny though that the business with who-gets-what at the end and Bilbo's stunt with the arkenstone is more morally ambiguous/complex than anything in LotR. But it's done in such a great way and slots in super well with the rest of the story. Really looking forward to the movies, hopefully they don't fuck it up.

The Hobbit novel is nearly as big The Lord of the Rings. I believe it has sold more than 100 million copies. One of the highest selling books of all time. It shouldn't have a problem.

And this will outgross Return of the King I think. No question. 10 years of ticket price inflation? Plus the 3D & IMAX"tax" Return of the King didn't have? It won't have to sell as many tickets to easily outgross it.

brob · « **Reply #35 on:** December 21, 2011, 06:56:13 AM »

never read it. looked it up on wikipedia and it appears to be a heist story? but instead of a bank, it's a dragon's treasure? that seems novel. Hopefully it turns out well.

The treasure is the dwarves originally. The dragon stole it. They are on a quest to reclaim their treasure and kill the dragon. There is a side-story as well of Gandalf and the other wizards fighting Sauron.

Well it takes place after the intro to FOTR when he lost the ring so he won't look like the big armor guy. Not sure exactly what he will look like, I don't think Tolkien ever described how he looked in his Necromancer state which is what he'll be in this film.

This is who is playing Sauron in the Hobbit films though:
