May 2002 – The Two Towers teaser trailer released in cinemas
I will try and get some scans to you tomorrow if you haven’t already been sent them…BUT Later on I can’t remember a specific month – (end of summer, beginning of fall), there is a SECOND teaser trailer being released. As I said, I will try and get appropriate scans for you.
Well here’s another great ‘poll’ to swamp, on June 6 MTV is handing out their MTV 2002 Movie Awards and naturally LOTR:FOTR is nominated. Now the great thing is we can vote for the movie we would like to win, and we can vote all we want! So if you have a few minutes spare, head over to MTV.com and vote for LOTR:FOTR! It’ll only take about five minutes of your time so we can all vote 15 times an hour, 360 times a day and, with June 6 being 30 days away we should be able to get a good head start! [Vote Now!]
