TV Watch: Starz! goes Middle-earth

From: Scout

Sometime this week STARZ! had a little news on LOTR. It was during their "Movie News" filler between movies. They were talking about movies due in the future. It was done from the perspective of New Line releases. They showed the conceptional artwork from the main site and had a brief commentary from a "Variety" writer. No discussion of cast. They mentioned the modest budget and Jackson's ability to deliver a blockbuster in light of his limited resume.

I bet it was no more than a minute long. It's supposed to be repeated tomorrow 2-18-00 at 7:30 PM EST.

Xoanon here,

If anyone gets the gusto to pop in a tape in your VCR and hit record and send it on over I'd love you for it :)
