We have a few extra shirts leftover from our Spring 2011 Collection. There are two designs in this collection: ‘TheOneRing.net Lousy T-Shirt 2011‘ and ‘Mirkwood Pest Control – No Spider too Large!’ If you would like to own one of these shirts, we highly suggest you place your order immediately. In most cases, we have less than 2 of each size and style. If you get to the ordering page and notice your size is not listed, it has sold out. Proceeds from the sale of these shirts will go to our server costs, so Thank You in advance for helping keep TheOneRing.net online! [Buy the Lousy T-Shirt 2011] [Buy the Mirkwood Pest Control Shirt]
At least that’s what Ringer Jim decided when he built his new shed, and four and a half years later, that’s just what he’s got.
Jim said “I needed a place to put my lawn tractor and outdoor tools so I told my wife that I was going to build a shed. She said: “Fine.” Then I thought it would be pretty cool if the shed was built like a Hobbit house. When I told my wife I think she said: “You’re crazy. …”
Well crazy or not, we think it looks pretty good. So check out this unique and rather cool shed, here at Jim’s page where he shares his four and half year quest. While you’re there why not leave a message for Jim letting him know what you think and then head over to our message boards and tell us.
Do all of Bilbo’s guests now need 3D glasses to see properly in Bilbo’s home. After seeing Sir Ian McKellen sporting his new shades, we wondered this to ourselves. Or maybe it’s just the wine and ale that’s making everyone see red and blue or double?
Here’s The ‘old’ The Fellowship of the Ring Bag End in 3D! Check out these two videos with your classic 3D glasses:

30th July 2011, Bar Convent, York This summer’s Tolkien Society Seminar will be at York’s historic Bar Convent on the theme of “Tolkien’s Trees” that gives scope for papers on the trees, gardens, woods, forests, and forest dwellers of Middle-earth and elsewhere in Tolkien’s works, and our understandings of them or what they may signify. The Bar Convent is a working convent just 15 minutes walk from York railway station. Lake Evendim Smial will organise Innmoots on the Friday and Saturday evenings and depending on interest we may arrange a tour of York Brewery at 5pm on Friday (£6 for adults); a group meal on Friday evening; a group walk around York on Sunday morning; and/or a group visit to Duncombe Park near Helmsley to see the trees (c. £10). More details will be sent to those who register and any charges for these will be payable on the day. Registration Rates £15.00 members, £18.00 non-members
The cost of places at the seminar includes refreshments on arrival, mid morning and mid afternoon. Lunch is not provided, however the licensed café at the convent will be open and there are many other places where you can eat lunch within a short walk. The seminar itself will start at 10:00 and finish by 17:00. Continue reading “The Tolkien Society Seminar “Tolkien’s Trees””
We’ve got another special update for you about the upcoming The Lord of the Rings Extended Edition 3-Night Event. If you weren’t excited by the 30 second spot we shared last week, take a gander at this 2 minute spot! And if that doesn’t make you want to join fellow fans on three Tuesday nights in June, we’re not sure what will! [Buy Tickets] If you are unlucky enough to not be near a theater (like me!) then we’ll just have to wait for the LOTR Ex on Blu-Ray, June 28th. New theaters are still being added, so don’t give up hope just yet! [Pre-Order Blu-Ray]
