Just got back from a local supermarket where I came across an interesting magazine with a few LOTR articles in it.

Extreme Collectors Magazine boasted a LOTR cover, with drawings of the hobbits, Aragorn and Gandalf, and had TWO articles inside dealing with our favorite subject.

One was a run down and review of the new LOTR CCG card game from Dechiper. It had several pics as well, including two new ones that I hadn’t seen before (one of a random orc and one of Lurtz). The article ran about four pages long.

The other article was about Bakshi’s animated LOTR cartoon (*shudder*) for some reason, and it features a pic of some Baskhi LOTR merchandise.

I did not purchase the magazine, otherwise I’d have a more in-depth descripition and scans.

Anyone out there with scans of the article send them along!

On May 25th, 2001 we had our first real preview of the Fellowship of the Ring. The two minute teaser was our first real look at the story and the look of the forthcoming films. This week, Hall of Fire heads into
movie-land, hosting an in-depth discussion of this recently released trailer. Fellowship of the Ring: Trailer 1 — dream … or nightmare? [More]

Check out the covers for some new editions of LOTR and other Tolkien books due to hit our shelves this fall. Thanks to a super top secret spy for the info! [More]

Just read news about the Ultimate Edition of the Terminator 2 DVD. What was interesting, is that it will be shown on the IFA (“International Funk-Ausstellung”/ International Media Convention (my translation)). What will also be shown on IFA, will be “Scenes from the first part of The Lord of the Rings”. It’s not clear what scenes, Trailer or new scenes.
