Patricia writes: I wanted to inform that Cynthia and Tony Royal who own and tour with Blanco/Shadowfax have taken on a rather daunting rescue mission, that of rescuing a herd of 27 horses, including 9 stallions. With hay out here at around $25 a bale, they personally don’t have the means to support them, but hope their goal is to use them for equine assisted psychotherapy to eventually be able to get grant money. In the meantime, they desperately need donations. Cynthia has asked me to drive people to www.PegasusRising.org so they can read the story, see the video and hopefully donate. If everyone we know would donate $25, they’d be taken care of for a year.
Now as to our big beautiful Blanco/Shadowfax, he has not been feeling well, Cynthia and Tony think something metabolic, so their are unable to travel far with him and book further shows. Please keep keep Blanco, Cynthia and Tony in your thoughts. It seems that everyone is dealing with problems whether financial or health concerns but together maybe we can help this great threesome out.
From canada.com: Everyone loves a franchise. And why wouldn’t they? Franchises always mean more of a good thing. More books, films, video games, and unnecessary novelizations for the fans and more money for the Hollywood types. It’s when franchises crossover into new territory that fans get a little nervous. Adapting that awesome comic book or beloved novel into a film can send even the most optimistic and loyal devotees into spasms of fear. With the release of Twilight, an adaptation of the insanely popular series of novels by Stephenie Meyer, we take a look at ten film franchises that had to please rabid fan bases. Great Expectations
November 23, 2008 is when the Celebrity Millennium will set sail with a group of your fellow Ringers for the Cruise to Middle-earth. One set of our Fellowship are already down in New Zealand right now doing a pre-cruise tour as part of the Wizard’s Journey. They are currently in Queenstown and will then transition to Wellington in the next day or two. The rest of us, on the Hobbit’s Journey, will join them this weekend. TORn’s own Tehanu is leading the Wizard’s Journey, showing everyone Rohan and Amon Hen, Rivendell and Ithilien, among other locations. I leave the US tomorrow evening and will make the occasional post from the ship so you will know what our Fellowship is up to. And yes, there will be pictures too.

The Lord Of The Rings star is to revive his role as the fantasy creature in prequel The Hobbit and despite the hard work involved in playing the part-computer generated character, he is looking forward to it. Andy said: “In 2010, if all goes according to plan, I think they’re gonna start thinking about The Hobbit. “It will be nice to drag Gollum kicking and screaming back out again. It will be great.” The 44-year-old British actor was speaking at the royal premiere of A Bunch Of Amateurs where he had been invited to give the Loyal Address to The Queen. Andy said: “I got asked because my wife Lorraine Ashbourne is in the film so I have to welcome the Royal family and introduce the film.” Andy Serkis eager for Gollum return

Claire writes: UK residents can see Andy Serkis on TV on Saturday 22nd November, on BBC2. He’s playing Albert Einstein, while David Tennant (the present Doctor Who) plays British scientist Arthur Eddington, in the film ‘Einsten and Eddington’. Details of the schedule are here and the BBC’s press notice is here. For those who miss the broadcast on the 22nd, the film may be available on BBC iPlayer for seven days after that date. And as the film is a co-production with HBO, I would expect it to be shown in the USA, though I can’t see anything about it on the HBO website at the moment.
