The Hobbit Trailer

As was mentioned already I'm sure, the Hobbit trailer that is found on Kazaa and elsewhere is a fan-made trailer. It was created using scenes from Fellowship of the Ring trailers and from other movies non-LOTR movies. The scenes representing Smaug were taken from the movie Dragon Slayer. The trailer can be found on either of the following sites.

No doubt the hobbit will be remade eventually, but it is not clear yet if New Line or Peter Jackson will be the ones who do it. I think Peter Jackson has his hands full enough as it is since he still has to complete the Return of the King and the Return of the King Extended Edition and has already signed on to do a remake of King Kong when he has finished those.
