Sting Has anyone else seen the Hobbit trailer?

This was posted on TORN 2 days ago. I downloaded it and thought it was good for a fake film. Its made up of bits of PJs LOTR films and Dragonslayer. It is a 19mb download, took me an hour on dial-up.<P><A HREF="http://www.lathamfilm.com/hobbit.html" TARGET=_blank>Fake Hobbit Trailer page here.</A>

But not a sight of a Dwarf in it! <P>I only wish it were true...but at least there is the excellent graphic novel version of it. Anybody else love that book?

I just saw the trailer and as clever as it may be, it's just a fake... The thing I liked the most about it was the music (Summer's overture from the movie Requiem for a dream)

The picture was very choppy, but I saw it. Wow! It certainly looked real, and I loved the music as well.<P>I love the book too! Did anyone see the cartoon version? Come on, Elves were supposed to be HANDSOME!

I saw it, doesn´t whether a film comes or not, the trailer is cool <P>@Burzdol: But in which films are dwarf scenes that aren´t Snow-white-like? And please, don´t say D&D, the dwarf looked to odd

I saw it. It took a while to load though, and it slowed everything down. I thought it was really good for a fake movie trailer. I just hope that when or if someone like...PJ makes a real Hobbit movie that it will be better. The music on it was great. I downloaded four different versions of Summer's Overture before I finally found the one they used. If anybody is wondering which one it is, It's TTT trailer remix. Anywho, I thought it was really good, but If it was real, I don't want to have to wait til 2006!!! They should've somehow put at least one dwarf in. The dwarves make up so much of the story, it's a shame that anyone would leave them out of the movie trailer.<P>Ranger of the Dúnedain,<P>Aerandir Carnesir

I love that music. And the whole thing looks pretty good except for the lack of dwarves, and the focus on the ringfinding, instead of other stuff.

The music was actually on one of the Two Towers trailers. I can't stand the elves in the animated hobbits, they look even worse than some orcs. I've got powerlink so it to less than seconds . I love powerlink. It was a cool trailer.
