The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies trailer

July 28, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s been a great few days for trailers. Here’s another and it is all the way from Middle Earth.

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?
