Ringer Spy Josephs sends in news regarding the LOTR primere in South Africa.
Don’t know if this info is of any interest to you, but I’ve been following your coverage of the release dates for LOTR.
I live in South Africa and I decided to check at a cinema to see when we’d be getting LOTR. The manager went to check his files or something (obviously of expected release dates) and told me that she thinks it’s going to be released on the same day as all the other countries (I said something about December next year) and she nodded and said that that sounded right. She also told me that she had seen the Interent trailer.
Well, South Africa dosn’t get films MUCH later than other countries (about a 2-3 week delay), but it looks like we’ll get the first LOTR film right when everyone else gets it!
Xoanon Note: Claire Raskind called the TORN offices this afternoon to re state that the release dates for LOTR will be, as already reported in the press, a world wide simultaneous December 2001 release.

I wanted make you aware of an article I discovered today. I am an avid pipe smoker and nothing had a greater impact of my decision to take up the pipe than J.R.R. Tolkien. Almost everyone in THE books enjoyed smoking a pipe. I came home from work today and to my great DELITE I found the newest issue of Pipes & Tobaccos Magezine. I proceeded to open the packaging and LOW AND BEHOLD the cover story is about the man himself, J.R.R. Tolkien. I must say that I have not read the article yet but I did want to share this information with you as soon as possible. The article looks to be four pages in length and I know you can purchase this magezine at most major bookstores. I have seen them at Books-A-Million.

There’s been so much speculation and to be honest pre-emptive whinging about how the characters in the ‘Rings’ are going to sound that the Dialect Coaches on the film production felt moved to defend themselves against what they felt was misinformation propogated on the Net. They wrote to Beren to set the record straight on how the Hobbits et al are going to speak, and you can see their letter over at The Company of the Ring

Without more detail, it’s hard to tell…guesses so far include the Houses of Healing, and two votes for the court in Minas Tirith with the remains of the White Tree. From Stevanos:
“My guess for the new set is that it will be the garden outside the White Tower of Ecthelion atop Minas Tirith. The wall is part of the Tower, and the hole is where the (Dead) White Tree will go. It will also make a symbolic backdrop for the romance of Faramir and Eowyn – and especially when the new White Tree is planted.”
All the details we have so far are here
