We recieved this report from a production insider concerning the council of Elrond.
Sources tell me Bilbo wasn’t present when they were shooting the Council scenes – which isn’t to say that he couldn’t be added in later I suppose, but I doubt it, because Frodo was there at the time.
Also, we’ve seen many pictures of the Council, and none of them have shown Bilbo. I’m pretty sure the hobbit sitting next to (anticlockwise) Gandalf (or rather his empty seat) in “889.jpg” is Frodo (or rather, his small stand-in) – c.f. 1166 and you’ll notice the clothes are the same.
You’d think that if Bilbo was there, he’d be sitting next to Frodo, but you can see from pic 889 that no-one is. Hmm, you know what else is weird? In the trailer (trailer02_49.jpg) where Frodo is standing up, there isn’t a chair next to Gandalf at all…
Seems an odd change to have, what do you folks think?

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: Two sets of designs are in for the upcoming first film in the trilogy. These images will be used on promotional items such as posters, T-Shirts, lobby cards, billboards, postcards, etc. later in the year but there’s a catch – they’ll only be used internationally, domestic promo items will have entirely different graphics.

From Daddy Threefoot and Dauvit The Hobbit:
BBC2 in England sometime in the Autumn (Fall) are showing a profile of JRR Tolkien. The programme will apparently include rare interview footage with the great man himself. One can only speculate that there may be some extracts from the film? Lets hope!
You know the old adage: Good Things Come to Those Who Wait. Check out the huge August additions to Green Books:
