Magic & Loss
I'll reserve final judgment until I see it; however, one thing that continually irked me while watching the trailer was just how... human some of the dwarves looked - simply not stocky/stolid enough. Especially the lead (Oakenshield).
In regard to the somber tone of the movie, I don't doubt it had something to do with the studio wanting to keep it similar to the Lotr movies for fans otherwise ignorant of the book(s).
