More on Cannes and LOTR
From: Deagol
I just tracked the origin of your last news concerning the trailer…
Cinébobine reported the news from here:
http://www.chez.com/angrenost/Textes/Courrier/cyrille.html
So, and for what it’s worth… the translation of the french text is not complete nor accurate. There’s a few tidbits inside:
According to the spy:..
- December 2000: world presentation of the new teaser and press conference live from NZ.
- Cannes 2001 : “a big launch of some sort “… in fact, it says: World launching, presenting the 1st movie and the trailer of the 2nd movie! (It could mean a world premiere in Cannes!), major press event.
- Fall 2001: world premiere of the final trailer.
- December 2001 : worldwide release of the first film.
(and that’s a great news… especially in France where we had to wait 5 more months to get SWE1) (the three movies are planned to be released in 25 different languages.)
- US marketing: over $ 50 million
