Lonely Planeteer here with some news on what they’ve been filming this past Tuesday and Wednesday, August 8,9. While I was lying in my cold, empty cot, contemplating my empty life, I know for a fact the production team were shooting the following scenes.

Hope this helps,

Love to see what and who is filming! Makes it all so REAL! This was just this past week!

Today, August 11th marks the 10th month of principal photography in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Filming this past month has mostly been in the studio. Scenes we think they’ve filmed this past month have been the flooding of Isengard, and SOMEONE being impaled behind a blue screen.

So who is this John Forde person who writes those monthly E!Online reports? Wouldn’t that be the dream job? NZ’s ‘Pulp’ magazine had the bright idea of interviewing him. Read the 2 part interview here. [Part 1] [Part 2]

Being Canadian, I can sympathize about the horrible weather, summer up here lasts for about 3 hours.
