The end of the prequel trilogy of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings is here. The official main trailer of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies has just been released and from the looks of it, it’s going to end with a bang! Take a look and make sure you blow it up full screen in 1080p HD. The film will be released on December 17th.

The “1-4-0″: As someone who worked in a newsroom for close to 10 years, I can tell you that director/screenwriter Dan Gilroy’s dark and twisted crime journalism film, Nightcrawler, walks a fine line that borders on farcical.

We’re in the middle of October and films are beginning to become better.
