It was amazing!

I have my recorder on now in case it comes on again.

I wonder why [In reply to] Can't Post

they didn't use these TV spots earlier and post them online in via the official Warner Bros. channels on youtube. They are much more 'epic' and I think would generate a lot more interest than the ones that have been released. Only thing I can think of is that the shots weren't finished

Good work! [In reply to] Can't Post

Almost certain that shot of Thorin is before the East Moria gate. Are those set fires, or Demon Flames erupting from the gate? Or do the secret doors of Erebor have the same shape as the East gate of Moria?

I hope the balrog is at least alluded to [In reply to] Can't Post

Otherwise the big victory followed by the continuation of dwarven exile will look strange to the uninformed moviegoer

Just saw it. Wow. [In reply to] Can't Post

I am watching TNT right now and just saw the wing of Smaug over Erebor. Beyond that some AMAZING shots of battles, Thorin, eagles. I'd say it was about 50% new footage. Really incredible stuff. Sorry, I had no way to record it.

Strange thing [In reply to] Can't Post

that we get few TV spots for this here in NZ, and I certainly don't think we have the Smaug featuring one yet.

I posted this on the other thread, but it was locked... [In reply to] Can't Post

Having seen the Smaug spot on TV, I can say with 99.9% certainty that it was RADAGAST walking up to Dol Guildur at the end.

Just in case anyone wants to know.

Some of those shots... [In reply to] Can't Post

are really making me second guess my resolve to see this first in regular 2D. I can just tell that this will probably be jaw-droppingly awesome in 48fps 3D. I mean - just look at that swooping Goblin-town shot! Shocked

Wow, just wow. I'm getting those familiar chills down my spine...
