I do feel sorry for the people in charge of this ‘Rant & Rave’ feedback…but here goes..
R & R QUESTION NO. 170: BASED ON TRAILERS AND PREVIEWS, WHAT FALL OR WINTER MOVIES LOOK GREAT, WHICH LOOK TERRIBLE AND WHY?
This came to mind for two reasons. One, there was considerable buzz around the office water cup — that’s all we can afford, one cup — about the new trailer for “The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.” On the other hand, there’s a trailer for a film called “How High” that seems to suggest two rappers with joints can outsmart the intellectuals at Harvard.

I was reading the Daily Express earlier and I came across a very small thing on Sean Bean (Boromir):

From Jessica:
My friend (who is not a LOTR fan, but will be if I can help it) told me about this today, I thought that it might be something you would want to share with all the others who are counting down the days to Dec. 19. At selectsmart.com, under Arts & Literature, there is a little test you can take that tells you what character from LOTR that you are most like. It’s just a little thing that keeps ya going until December! [More]
