Carl writes, “Just started is an exhibit on ‘World Famous People in Porirua’. Porirua is about 20mins north is Wellington and probably the most world famous to come out of Porirua is Peter Jackson.” [More] “The exhibit is only small, so don’t get too excited and expecting a huge Peter Jackson display… They have small video clips on each person and the PJ one is taken from the Bad Taste DVD Special Edition, where he talks about his childhood and how he got into filming and also shows some of his earlier films before Bad Taste.” Nice photo of PJ though.

Thanks to hard work of Staffer Asfaloth we can now show you a short clip from the MTV Movie Awards followed by Andy Serkis’ and Gollum’s acceptance video. As most people will know by now (and if not I’m sorry but I’ll spoil it for you) Gollum won ‘Best Digital Performance’! The Quicktime-video can be found in various sizes for your viewing pleasure: [8.2 MB] [5.6 MB] and [1.03 MB]! But mind you: it does contain some very strong language…
Ringer Spy Kate sends in this batch of scans from the new edition of Starbust – a UK-based magazine. It’s supposedly a RoTK preview, but there’s not a lot of new stuff in this – the vast majority of the images are in fact from Two Towers. The cover is an (oldish) RoTK image, so the spoiler wary may want to avoid. [More]
WeeTanya sends news of a small videoclip of the event which is available on the official Christopher Lee (Saruman) website. [More]
