The Hobbit: the Battle of Five Armies Trailer Released

Posted by Soulskill on from the defining-chapter-in-a-very-literal-sense dept.

An anonymous reader writes: The first teaser trailer for the final installment of the Middle Earth saga, The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies, debuted at Comic-Con, and now Warner Bros have made it available online. While the trailer contains some nice shots on a visual level, very much in keeping with the Lord of the Rings trilogy, about 80% of the trailer's awesomeness is provided by the background music. Pippin's mournful song from Return of the King plays intercut with the doomed mission that Faramir leads on his father Denethor's orders.

    So can I finally get my Lego Smaug now? I've been waiting 37 years for it.

    What's so horrible about The Hobbit?

    The movies are stretched and it shows.

    Sort of stretched, like... butter scraped over too much bread.
