Sven writes: I’ve just been watching an interview programme in Oz called “Enough Rope” with Andrew Denton. This evening one of his guests was Annie Lennox of “Eurythmics” fame. It was an engaging interview but of particular interest was her mention of spending the “last couple of days in studio” recording music that she’s been invited to work on for “the next Lord Of The Rings film..”. Looks like we’ll be hearing her beautiful voice in ROTK. Can’t wait!

I attended the New Line presentation Sunday and was pleasantly surprised to find that Elijah Wood and Dominic Monaghan both showed up on top of the RotK preview, Andy Serkis with a look behind the creation of Gollum, the TTT extended edition preview, costumes put together live on the stage, and Sean Astin talking about his short film.
It was a tremendously awesome hour and they even gave away a prop sword and about 30 mysterious gift packages (my friend won one, go her!) that are “to big to give out here” and “must be mailed”. I also checked out the TORN booth and picked up a “Don’t make me get my ring” shirt as well as a Gandalf for president pin for good measure. Anyways, here are the pictures I have from the presentation. Thanks for your time and having such a completely wicked rad site that keeps me on top of everything LotR.
