OK, no Gollum, but Gimli. Our image of Gimli seems to have made himself at home on all the movie websites, we might as well give him a home here too! MAJOR SPOILER!!! (this is a direct link to the image) [more]

Sorry for the delay folks!
The time has come folks! The long awaited interview with Gary Gygax is now posted! TheOneRing.Net Staff member Gamgee did a wonderful job getting this interview, and selecting the questions! We wanted to thank you all for sending in such very interesting questions and, again, thank to Mr. Gygax for giving this fine opportunity to speak with him about Tolkien, D&D, and the whole fantasy world in general! [interview]
If you want to check out Mr. Gygax’s official site, check out “The Creative World of Gary Gygax.”
The Mythopoeic Society will be meeting in Hawaii this year for their anual Mythcon! Great combination if you ask me. They have also updated their homepage with an LotR movie section and other great fantasy-genre items, news, and articles of interest.
Recently we reported an ad for extras that sounded like it could be an ad for LOTR extras, given the location (Canterbury) and the physical types required. Or, one of our more suspicious natures decided, it was an attempt to get people to sign on who didn’t have a hope of working for LOTR.
The agency, Modelpool Talent Promotions, are understandably annoyed with that inference and rang to say they supply 80% of the extras in LOTR and are also casting for 8 major international feature films being shot in NZ. So the ad was genuine! Go for it!!
