From Ringer Marina: The Tacoma News Tribune in Tacoma, Washington is predicting The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is the one movie to come out on top.
“Handicappers are predicting this is the one to beat. The thinking is that academy voters have held off showering the series of statues in the major categories (the first two won a combined total of six in techinal areas) until all three parts are out in the world. If The Return of the King matches the scope and excellence of its predecssors (and since they were filmed back-to-back, there’s little reason to think it won’t), director Peter Jackson can probably look forward to a very pleasant evening next year at the Oscar academy.”

ATLANTA – The best thing about Dragon Con is that it never sleeps and the worst thing about Dragon Con is, naturally, that it never sleeps. We staffers are hopelessly behind in Con coverage and we are having trouble fitting writing in with presentations, give-aways, interacting with other fans, distributing buttons and having a little fun.
Fear not TORnados, full reports are on their way but DCon is winding down and after a little travel time the full monty will be delivered. Highlights include Brad Dourif, Elvish lessons, tons of Tolkien tract events, fantastic costuming and even TheOneRing.net presentations.
August has crept into September leaving us only a few short months until the force of nature that is “Return Of The King” is unleashed on us and the rest of the world. DCon has, if it is a good gauge of ROTK interest, shown that not only are Tolkien fans excited for the third film in the trilogy, but the rest of genre fantasy community has their blood in a boil in anticipation. Stay tuned for further reports!
