The first teaser trailer for Peter Jackson’s final chapter in The Hobbit Trilogy has arrived. It shows us plainly that The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies will mostly be about one thing – war, as Thorin Oakenshield puts it here in our first real glimpse of the film. But if it has that special Jackson, Walsh and Boyens touch behind the script and direction that the teaser seems to imply, this should prove to be quite an emotional ride as well.
It really is a well put together trailer, featuring the song “Home is Behind,” as sung by Billy Boyd in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, playing over images of armies marching to battle and beloved characters facing ultimate peril against the various evil forces threatening Middle Earth. Oh, and we see a bit of Smaug burning things, which of course is really cool. All in all, quite a tease indeed! Hit the jump to watch!
