For a while there it looked like ‘The Hobbit’ wasn’t even going to get made, with the lawsuits and contract negotiations and all that. But it’s coming, and fans can now geek out over the first trailer for the next entry in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ saga.

It seems like we’ve been teased forever when it comes to the Christopher Nolan’s third and final ‘Batman’ movie, but that’s all over this week as the official trailer for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ has hit the web!

Remember the story of ‘Jack and the Beanstalk?’ Well, ‘Jack the Giant Killer’ will make you forget all that. This new movie is a big-screen adventure, with epic battles and warriors on horseback and a farmboy accidentally opening a portal to another dimension. But those magic beans still figure into the plot.

If you thought the first ‘G.I. Joe’ had a lot of action, guns, and explosions, wait until you see the trailer for the sequel below. ‘G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation’ doesn’t have Dennis Quaid or Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but it does have The Rock and Bruce Willis. Oh, and a female ninja named Jinx.

If you’re sick of hearing about ‘New Year’s Eve,’ there’s a new romantic comedy starring a big ensemble cast coming in May 2012: ‘What To Expect When You’re Expecting.’ This one stars Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Rock, Anna Kendrick, Chace Crawford, Dennis Quaid, Elizabeth Banks and ‘Glee’s’ Matthew Morrison.

‘John Carter’ is one of the more eagerly-awaited movies of 2012, and the first full trailer has geeks, action movie junkies and fans of ‘Friday Night Lights’ star Taylor Kitsch freaking out.

‘Titanic,’ the highest grossing film in movie history, is getting a 3D retrofit that is scheduled to hit theaters on April 6, 2012. On Wednesday, director James Cameron introduced a trailer for this 3D update on the Titanic Facebook page. “I’m the king of the 3D world!”

The full-length trailer for Pixar’s next movie ‘Brave’ has hit the Web, and it looks like another winner. Hitting theaters next summer, ‘Brave’ is Pixar’s first fairy tale and their first film with a female lead. The story involves a land where “the first born child of each of the great leaders must prove their worth.” But feisty archer Merida has other ideas.

The first full-length trailer for ‘Mirror, Mirror’ — one of two Snow White adaptations scheduled for big screen release in 2012 — hit the web Wednesday. The movie stars Lily Collins (daughter of Phil Collins) as Snow White and Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen. If the trailer is any indication, ‘Mirror, Mirror’ has a farcical ‘Princess Bride’-like tone to it.

‘The Hunger Games’ is one of the more heavily-anticipated movies of 2012. And now the first full-length trailer has hit the Web.

We posted the Japanese trailer for ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol’ a couple of weeks ago, and while it was good, it wasn’t great. But now Yahoo! has an exclusive new trailer for the Tom Cruise flick promising plenty of action for the holiday moviegoing season. It also contain major spoilers.

Way back in 1999, ‘Star Wars: Episode I -The Phanton Menace’ reignited the ‘Star Wars’ franchise. Now, with a new trailer for the 3D version hitting the Web, ‘Wars’ mania is back in full swing. Ready to party with some Jedi like it’s 1999?
