Reaction to Hobbit sneak peak

A 10-minute preview of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit has drawn a mixed reaction from viewers, with one film website saying "everyone hated it".

The Kiwi director previewed 10 minutes of footage in the United States yesterday, showing wide landscape scenes shot in New Zealand, Bilbo and his nemesis Gollum, and the band of dwarves he has adventures with.

The footage showed Bilbo lost in Gollum's cave, Gandalf persuading Bilbo to leave the Shire, and trolls engaging in a battle.

Orlando Bloom was shown reprising his Lord of the Rings role as Legolas - a character not in Tolkien's Hobbit book.

There is also a scene of the White Council featuring Saruman, Gandalf, Galadriel and Elrond.
