It was announced that the first trailer for THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG will be online very soon but the first poster for the movie is going to have to tide you over until then. While it isn't boring the poster also isn't an instant classic and it's about what you'd expect of a poster for the Peter Jackson film.
Although THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY had very mixed reviews the second film should have less filler than the first one. Fans of the book have said that Peter Jackson added quite a bit to the first film that wasn't in the novel. Hopefully THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG will feel more like a proper return to Middle Earth than what many fans experienced when the first film came out last year. One thing THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG has going for it is red-hot Benedict Cumberbatch appearing as the dragon Smaug. Since the actor will portray Smaug through motion capture I'm very interested in seeing how the character turns out and to be completely honest the idea of a wicked dragon with Cumberbatch's voice scares the shit out of me.
THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG will be in theaters on December 13th, 2013 and the final part of the trilogy, THE HOBBIT: THERE AND BACK AGAIN is scheduled to be released on December 17th, 2014.
