The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug trailer

October 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is The Desolation of Smaug trailer we’ve been expecting to air today. What we weren’t expecting was two and a half minutes that ooze Middle Earth and features certain elves. What do you think? Tempted? Re-energised for the trilogy?

The second official trailer for The Hobbit is out and it looks pretty awesome. Gandalf has to defend his choice of adding a Hobbit to a company of dwarves. The trailer also explains, a little, of what the dwarves want.
