I can only mirror sentiments already expressed here. It seems a very ambitious project but apparently they've copied PJ:s visual style almost to every last detail, which to me is a shame, as a copy will always pale in comparison to the original. The biggest eye-opener though is the sheer quality of that trailer: sweeping birds-eye views of snowy mountains, fighting-scenes with lots of fully and ably costumed actors, a believable CGI-Gollum. Very impressive indeed. Perhaps it won't be long before we see a fan-filmed Silmarillion or Children of Hurin as well...
