BOFA: Trailer Game! Can't Post

Let's do another one!

The rules: write a list of 6 characters of which you think they'll occur most, in ascending order, numbered from 1 to 6. For example, if you think Tauriel will be the least occuring character, you put her under number 1. If you think Thrain is the one who will occur the most, you put him under 6. The number of the character determines the number of points you receive for naming him.

Example:
1. William the Troll (the one who will have the least appearances)
2. Great Goblin's Scribe
3. Sebastian
4. The Talking Purse
5. The Moth
6. Tauriel (the one who will have the most appearances)

Counting:
After the trailer is out, all the characters and their appearances (by the number of shots they are clearly visible in) are counted.

The sum of one's points is calculated by the formula: 1 x (shots with character under no. 1) + 2 x (shots with character under no. 2) + ... + 6 x (shots with char under no. 6)

Let's do this. [In reply to] Can't Post

I could see the WC being saved for a second trailer... Will exclude Gandalf. I could see him narrating the trailer with only very few shots.... Smaug probably only in a few shots flying over Laketown. I think they will focus on the gathering of the clouds and especially the relationship of Thorin and Bilbo will stand at the core of the trailer imho. Therefore the people involved there should show up more often.


1. Gandalf
2. Tauriel
3. Thranduil
4. Bard
5. Thorin
6. Bilbo

"I am afraid it is only too likely to be true what you say about the critics and the public. I am dreading the publication for it will be impossible not to mind what is said. I have exposed my heart to be shot at." J.R.R. Tolkien

We all have our hearts and minds one way or another invested in these books and movies. So we all mind and should show the necessary respect.

“And the ship went out into the High Sea and passed into the West, until at last on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise.”
