Those of you followers with good memories may recall that last December, Peter Jackson and the team at Warner Bros provided a massive tease for their upcoming Lord Of The Rings prequel two-parter of The Hobbit with the release of the first teaser trailer for An Unexpected Journey twelve months in advance of its release. Well, a lot has changed since then, with two films becoming three thanks to a whole lot of appendices content allowing for a big project expansion, and thus we've now arrived at a brand new trailer for the first movie out of the trilogy.
My thoughts? This new theatrical trailer does wonders to silence those who were feeling cynical about the three-film split, boasting fantastic special effects, very intriguing lore moments for even the most hardcore of fans, and a great mix of British and Hollywood talents. That we get just one drawn glimpse of Smaug and that we're only likely to get a brief CGI tease of the dragon at the film's climax doesn't seem to matter, which is really saying something for the quality of Jackson's storytelling abilities. And the best part? There's only three months left to go! The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey hits cinemas everywhere on December 14th.
