Continue ReadingProbably been reported already but here’s further confirmation via Lasse in Finland:
“I just read from a Finnish gaming magazine (where there is an article with old pics) that it is huge – 2h 40mins. In the article is nothing so special, just telling about Jackson and his effect group Weta and stuff…“
Ringer fan Tero sends us this fron Finland:
“Just to tease you a little bit by the telling that here in Helsinki, the local tv network broadcasts the latest FOTR trailer almost in every 30 minutes. So we can enjoy it atleast 30 times a day : )“
Those lucky Finnish! Anyway, if you want to read more about Lord of the Rings and the films in Finnish, jump over to our community member Kontu.
Tolkien geeks! Are we? Aren’t we? Either way, is it a good thing or a bad thing? When the line is drawn, do you want to be on the side of the nerds? Who’s on the other side of that magic line?
Read this article in ‘Village Voice, and this article, and be very confused. Or is it just too late and and I’ve had one too many, that I can’t get a grip on either of these points of view?
Thanks to Goldmund for this one.
Ringer Spy Riskbreaker sends in more news on a story we reported back to you on January 25th
I have spoken with someone on the “inside” of the movie memorabilia production industry. He has told me that United Cutlery is releasing their licensed versions of STING, GLAMDRING and THE SWORD OF THE WITCH-KING all before the film. [More]
Ringer Spy Riskbreaker sends in more news on a story we reported back to you on January 25th
I have spoken with someone on the “inside” of the movie memorabilia production industry. He has told me that United Cutlery (http://www.unitedcutlery.com/) is releasing their licensed versions of STING, GLAMDRING and THE SWORD OF THE WITCH-KING all before the film.
Sting will come in October, followed by Glamdring and the Witch-King sword both in November. There will be more swords in the future, but these are confirmed for those dates. The prototypes already exist. In fact, United Cutlery has sent out pictures of each of these swords on their plaques lying next to the actual prop. My contact (a sword afficionado) has said that they are “beautiful” (no, my contact is not at United Cutlery) but that he cannot divulge the pictures until July 1st, as is apparently United Cutlery’s deal with New Line.
But, I know you guys are talented spies, and I hope that this information will cause you to send your men out into the trenches and dig up these pictures. I, for one, am drooling in anticipation. So is my movie prop collection. 🙂
Aragorn’s sword is indeed one of the more notable weapons in the Lord of the Rings, and the Sword that Was Broken will not be wielded by the future king at Weathertop in the Fellowship of the Ring movie. !SPOILERS! [More]
