Hullo fellow Tolkien fans!

I’m thrilled to report that TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT!!! At 3:00 a.m. EST [12:00 a.m. PST, -8 GMT, 7:00 p.m. NZT, take your pick ;)] New Line Cinema will give us what we’ve been waiting for, a sneak preview of Lord of the Rings movie footage. So get up early or stay up late, but wherever you are, come on down to Barliman’s to oooh and aaah with The Regulars. Help us decide what we’re looking at and watch the news unfold!

Hope to see you here,

Tookish

Just in case you are really (and I mean REALLY) out of it, there is a New Line Exclusive Internet Preview happening in 5 hours. :’ )

The place to be in 5 hours is the official site: http://www.lordoftherings.net. Be there, or be a ninnyhammer.

Hello again Tolkienites! It’s another fine day in Middle Earth, and what better way to spend it, than trying to solve my trivia questions? Our victor yesterday was John Smith!!! Good Job John! The answers were: 1) The High Hay 2) Celebrant 3) Gandalf
Here are the questions for today:
1) “Who was the mother of Theodred?”
2) “aadngubd” (scrambled Tolkien person, place or thing)
3) “There were rowan-trees in my home.” (Who said this?)
As always, Mail me with your answers, the 1st person to mail me all 3 answers, in one letter, will be posted here tomorrow! Good Luck!!

Ninnyhammer LOTR Rumors

How can I put this? Well, I don’t think we have a Xenarwen problem at the moment. Or not the problem we thought we had. Read about it all at Scoop Still, look on the bright side: those charging orcs must have looked very convincingly terrifying.

I have already received some emails asking about how to get quicktime and what timezone 12:01am April 7th refers too.

To download quicktime just follow this link.


get quicktime
get quicktime!

I am trying to get an answer on what the exact time is for the download. Personally, I’m going to go with Tehanu’s initial report of 3am Eastern Time (12:01 Pacific, 7pm NZ time) Or, 10 hours from this post..:)

Hope that helps, and we will keep you updated as news comes in…

Followup from Corvar: We have just received confirmation that it is Pacific Time.
