Looks a lot more serious than the last film, kind of conflicted seeing as how the entire book was pretty light-hearted.
I'm just waiting for all three movies to come out so someone out there can make a superior one film cut by removing all of the pointless shit

Yes lets remove the stuff that makes it an adventure movie.

I'm saying remove all the stupid LOTR trilogy and Simalaron shit that doesn't belong in the Hobbit
and trim down the action scenes that are just streeeeeeeeeetched on forever

not really an issue in my book, as long as they keep the tone consistent. the slapstick humor of the first hobbit movie felt so out of place when there were moments like the dwarf kings decapitation by azog.
also, smaug looks really bad lol. whatever happened to this?

What. It's the goddamn prequel and plays in the same universe. It's supposed to have a connection to Lord of the Rings. What the fuck are you talking about.
I think Smaug is fine, personally.
orlando bloom had more lines in this trailer than he did in all of the LOTR trilogy

That says 08, that's probably from when Guillermo Del Toro was in charge of things. Style is first to change when you swap directors. Assuming that's legit, that is.

Peter Jackson does not have the rights to take anything from the Silmarillion, so I'm pretty sure there were none, nor will be any of it in "The Hobbit".
Shame really, a Silmarillion movie would be awesome.

I still want to hear Smaug's voice.
I dunno why but watching this just put a big smile on my face
I love the Hobbit, can't wait to see this

He was in charge at one point?
Jesus, that'd be a fucking unsettling movie

You can see it on the website of Peter König, who made concept art for the movie when Del Toro was on it. I just think its looks fit much more with the creatures of the LotR movies.

I genuinely think it would have been better. It's a shame, imo.

I think benedict cumberbatch will voice smaug.
He has a sexy ass voice.

Already confirmed actually.
Fuckin' Smaug at last. Kept everyone in the dark about him for so long, very glad they finally showed us something.
What a stupid sounding subtitle.
i am smaug actually
How coincidental, I was just humming the theme to the first movie when I popped into the videos section to see what was new.
[QUOTE=shrektheturd2;40996521]i am smaug actually[/QUOTE]
but youre shrek
I don't think they should have revealed what Smaug looked like in the trailer, it would have been cool to keep his appearance a secret until the movie came out.

He voices Smaug and the Necromancer.
Please gawd give him some lines in this movie.
gotta have to watch this in the cinema with 48fps too, shame there is no consumer release with 48fps

I don't think that was going to be Guillermo's final design, since he wanted a classic looking dragon in the film.
From what I remember from the books, Smaug never actually saw Bilbo? Since Bilbo was using the ring the whole time he was down in the dragon's lair.

It might actually be a spoiler for the movie though. :v:

So in other words, Benedict Cumberbatch is Sauron.
ahahah why is he a weird wrinkly cat

I must have missed it because I didn't see Smaug at all
