Greetings visitors!
Gandalf wanted to drop you a line to tell you a bit about the internet’s best Tolkien chat! From the desktop of the Wizard himself:
“Hullo fellow Ringers!
Do you have any Tolkien topics or ideas that you just can’t seem to figure out? Ever wonder why Cirdan is the only elf mentioned with a beard? Or what happened to the rings of the Nazgul? Then come on in to Barliman’s chatroom! If trivia is your thing, and you think you can stump the Barliman regulars, then come on in and try! Whatever is on your mind, you are welcome to Barliman’s.”
— Gandalf
We talk about the movies being filmed in New Zealand all the time, too. Curious about the latest Spy Reports or news items? Perhaps you’ve found out something yourself you’d like to pass along to the higher ups…. Interested in meeting site founders Xoanon, Tehanu, Calisuri or Corvar? They frequent the chat regularly, as well as a host of Tolkien enthusiasts from around the world.
We hope to see you soon! If you have trouble connecting please email me and we’ll take care of you.

Super Spy Aiglos found this bit of news!! We now know that there are two other real audio files.
The first is basically the same as the “live from the set” on the site now.
However, the third is VERY interesting indeed! It is a report from the interior filming at Bag End. Here is an excerpt:
“One that is really tiny, so that when actor Ian McKellen, who plays Gandalf walks inside, he appears to be the height of 8 feet tall, that Gandalf is in the story…“
“Then we have a full scale sized Bag End where the hobbits..(Naming cast)..when they walk in, it appears to be a normal environment.“
“Eventually these two images will be merged so that you won’t be able to tell that Gandalf and the hobbits where in different environments.“
Wow! Check it out here: [ listen ]

Ringer Spy Dave snot here (don’t you love that name?) sent me this computer image, from the official site, all ‘fixed up’ to get the lines out. [More]
