We posted a link to a TV3 report on their trip to the cinema last week to ask moviegoers what they thought of the LOTR trailer. They updated their site with the next days’ news before everyone that wanted to had seen it – but they did notice the surge in visits to their website! So they’re reposted it, and here it is, with a little video clip.

Regular readers will know how good Sir Ian McKellen’s ‘Grey Books’ reports are, with their insider’s observations of the LOTR film project and his experiences while playing Gandalf. Sir Ian’s latest update is available here

All three stories of J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy series were filmed consecutively on location in New Zealand by director Peter Jackson (“Heavenly Creatures”). The project has inspired hundreds of fan Web sites.The trailer can be accessed at real.com or at lordoftherings.net.
