Surely this time I am first?

 

[GRColin]

So awesome! I Thanks for posting this. Nice to finally see a trailer after all the obstacles this film has had to overcome. Looks great!

 

[UghRochester]

I should watch the other LotR films first. Never actually watched any of them.

 

[MattAY]

Well chronologically The Hobbit comes first. So watch The Hobbit - then the trilogy. Sorted!

 

[WickedLiquid]

Amazingly amazing.

 

[LinksOcarina]

I am amazed by the sheer continuity they are keeping in the look...

That in itself is impressive.

Oh man, I can't wait.

Oh man, this is going to be so much better than Star Wars.

 

[Shaft]

^which is way better than Star Trek

 

[BlackStar]

Totally, but let's not kid ourselves, even Harry Potter is better than Star Trek.

 

[Bretimus_v2]

And how about them Twilight movies, amirite?

 

[UghRochester]

Psshh, nothing compared to the Justin Bieber film.

 

[Gunner37]

Which is nothing compared to the hannah montana movies

 

[Longo_2_guns]

Best movie ever? Jersey Girl.

Oh man, this is going to be so much better than Star Wars.

Well LOTR was better so it's not a huge leap.....

Speaking of Star Trek, I wonder if Leonard Nimoy is going to do another Bilbo Baggins song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC73PHdQX04

The Hobbit is going to be a two-parter right?

Add to that the inevitable extended editions of the hobbit somewhere being released around Christmas 2014...

So coming 2015, we can watch all 5 Tolkien extended movies in a marathon lasting the better part of a day. Holy shit!

The Hobbit is a two-parter? Oh man, in all due respect, I hope Ian McKellen doesn't die before then.

 

[Chris_Crime]

I just don't care.

Well, the news that the Hobbit would be a two-parter is pretty old and I haven't been keeping up to date on the project, so i don't know if it still holds true. However, from what I was able to piece together from the trailer I've seen nothing that relates to the Lonely Mountain or the men of Dale. So I guess, the story barely progresses past Rivendell, the Elves and the Trolls, which I think is roughly the half-way mark. It has been a couple of years since I last read the Hobbit though.

Also, I think they are expanding the story a bit to show a bit more of the Battle of the Three Armies, because a Jackons/Tolkien movie wouldn't be complete without at least one major combat scene.
