Even though New Line Cinema stopped counting the pennies in regards to ‘The Two Towers’ box office earning, we haven’t! BoxOfficeMojo has just listed TTT in 4th place of all time moneymakers. It just passed Jurassic Park with $920.4 Million dollars (JP has $920.1 Million). In third place is The Phantom Menace with $925.6 Million. [More]

Roger Friedman’s latest article on the Fox News website has this small blurb on ROTK. And by the way, Messrs. Shaye and Lynne — how’s the new “Lord of the Rings” movie coming? Will it make its mid December deadline? “Just barely,” was the unanimous answer, although I am paraphrasing. Turns out director Peter Jackson is in London frantically trying to finish all the special effects. “But we did have a screening last week,” the pair reported. “And it’s phenomenal.”

I tend to think Friedman mis-quoted, PJ is/was in London working on the score, not SFX.
