Tar-Jêx has just left Hobbiton.

Now that the new trailer is out, I think it's safe to say that the terrible romance subplot is going to be forced upon us once again. I really hope that Tauriel is nowhere near Kili when he dies, because if she is, it's just going to be disgusting.

I'm under the impression that the rock handing scene happened while Kili was dying.

No-oo… my guess is that’s an early, pre-battle scene of Very Subtle Foreshadowing; however, there’s a brief shot towards the end of the trailer in which our favourite red-headed Elf-Sue is shown weeping, and I’d guess that’s when Kili actually kicks the bucket. There’s also a shot of Tauriel being flung against a wall, so that might be when *she* dies.

I'm not sure whether you're ok with the terribad romance subplot, or just being sarcastic.
People are allowed to like their favourite characters, unless the character never existed. Screw Tauriel, she's a terrible plot device which should just be eaten by Smaug for some reason.

It’s okay, I was, in fact, being sarcastic.

With any luck, Morgoth will return through the Door of Night, having developed a 5-megaton thermonuclear warhead with which he puts all of PJ's moronic characters out of our misery......

This thread... such a graveyard of buried hopes.
