As of now we're about four months away from the December 13th release of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, part two of Peter Jackson's latest trilogy set in Middle Earth. With the date nearing it's only a matter of time before we're up to our ears in dwarves, wizards, and hobbitses. Oh! And one giant dragon.



Setting the tone for the promotional surge to come are these two images discovered by TheOneRing.net, who point out that judging by their highly stylized look we'll likely see these images on, "toy packaging, calendars, Facebook photos, desktop backgrounds, [and] board games." Basically, anywhere you look in the coming months will have something Hobbit plastered on it.



For an early look at The Desolation of Smaug's marketing blitz imagery, hit the jump.

Tolkien. The film continues the adventure of the title character Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) as he journeys with the Wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and thirteen Dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) on an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor.
