I went to see the Hobbit opening night and they did NOT show the trailer, I was disappointed to say the least. I want this movie to succeed and if they'd rather show friggin Ronin 47 and 300 sequel as opposed to Godzilla for the box office smash hit Hobbit 2 then I have further concerns for Godzilla's advertising.

So it's crucial that you people answer this question:

DID ANYONE WHO SAW THE HOBBIT SEE THE GODZILLA TRAILER IN THE PREVIEWS?

I'm pretty sure I told you a while ago, that those type of trailers would be shown before Godzilla, but at least they finally released a trailer to the public so I can't complain too much, but yes the advertising is horrible so far, especially when as I've pointed out before, there are quite a few big name movies coming out the same month and advertising needs to start soon if Godzilla hopes to keep up.

I saw the Godzilla trailer during the Hobbit. I don't know what's wrong with your theatres.

According to this official guideline for cinema managers put out by Warner Bros., it says Godzilla should be shown on both 2D and 3D versions of THE HOBBIT. Check it out.

I'm surprised your cinema didn't show it - did you go to a cinema that isn't part of a big chain of theaters? Perhaps some privately owned cinemas didn't "get the memo" in a sense.

@INSTINCTIVEGIGAN I just got back from my local Odeon (Brighton, UK) & didn't see it either! Was disappointed to say the least. But not majorly disappointed, as the movie was pretty damn good! So I hooked up my laptop to my hd tv & stereo, turned up to 11 & stuck on the trailer. I now feel much better! :)

Perhaps they have different trailer schedules across the pond?

We had to see the 48FPS 3-D version because the only other show at the time was sold out.  Godzilla wasn't played in the trailers.  After 15 minutes we walked out because we both HATED the look of the 48FPS and got tickets to the next regular showing instead.  The Godzilla trailer was in front of that one. 

Evidently the pre-packaging isn't the same for all the version.  Interstellar was only in the regular one as well.

I went to a Muvico here in Florida and saw the 2D version but nothing, instead we got trailers for 300 RoE, Jupiter Ascending, 47 Ronin, The Amazing Spiderman 2, Divergent, Vampire Academy, and The Nut Job. I couldnt believe they replaced Godzilla with Vampire Academy and the Nut Job, I heard only the 3D verison had the trailer and me and my friends couldnt go 3D because we didnt have enough money. In the end we didnt care because the hobbit and especially Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug made it up for us. Still I feel slightly cheated we didnt get a trailer for this showing, was one of the reasons we went to see the hobbit.

@Des9876 whats the big deal with 48fps? Isnt it good movie looks more realistic, I saw it in 2D and it looked fine, very fluid movement especially during the smaug scenes.
