I went into my local Cinema (Movieland 5 , Porirua, Wellington , NZ) and in a metal frame was the LOTR poster With Elijah Wood looking at us with the ring in his hand. Well anyway the thing is they had a ‘countdown clock’ built in to the frame. It was counting down the days , hours, minutes , seconds and even 10s/100s of seconds.
If you are anywhere in Southern California, get your Tolkien posterior over to Comic-Con 2001! Today, Ringer staff members Tookish and Quickbeam will be presenting a behind the scenes look at the upcoming movies. (not to mention handing out very cool bookmarks):
6:00 Lord of the Rings with TheOneRing.net – TheOneRing.net is excited to take you one step closer to the Lord of the Rings movies at Comic-Con! TORN will offer a one hour presentation highlighting locations, cast, crew, movie info, and rumors. Come meet some of TheOneRing.net staff and take a bite out of Tolkien fandom! Room 6A.
I’m sure Tookish and Quickbeam will be sending many reports from the trenches, so look for them right here.
Calling all Tolkien fans! We just set up a new links page and, well, it is REALLY empty. So please take a moment to go to the following URL and add your favorite Tolkien related websites. Submissions are reviewed by our staff, so you won’t see them online right away. Thanks for your help in advance. [More]
