It was some totally non action flick, that was I think New Line, so that was why it was run, and run first. I cannot remember anything about it. Mainly because I too was wondering at the time why the Bilbo with a D was this preview being run. Maybe imdb can do a search by New Line and 2004 Last Full Measure? Could be.
