However, I'm a little torn on this trailer, as An Unexpected Journey left me a bit underwhelmed. I still liked it, but Jackson's interest in cramming whatever appendice material Tolkien wrote really bogged it down and the pacing suffered as a result. Hopefully there's less fluff and more of the good stuff in this one.
Also, I'm surprised by how prominent Legolas is in the trailer. He wasn't even in the bloody book!
