Continue ReadingAfter much hassle, Ringer fan Dark Spar was able to get this news on the trailer in Singapore. Unfortunately its not good.
“We are the cinema exhibitor not the film distributor but i managed to get some information on the this film, the film opening date is around december 2001. The trailer will be in november 2001.”
So it looks like Dark Spar and other Singapore fans won’t be seeing the teaser trailer in theaters for a while. If you have more information, please send me an email.
Calenial sent in word that the Teaser Trailer, (now available online in Real Player format at http://www.lordoftherings.net) will not show until February 2nd in front of the film ‘Vertical Limit.’
It’s looking good! No Mr Fathead blocking the view of Frodo’s hand catching the ring. Go to the official site and click on the ‘Fellowship of the Ring’ at the top left.
Regular LOTR film fans will remember the sudden dismissal of Stuart Townsend in ’99, a week into his role as Aragorn. Earlier this week we reported an interview where he sounded OK about that; this interview in the Irish Times gives a different story.
“Just to let you know, the entertainment supplement with todays Irish Times (17/01) contains an interview with Stuart Townsend where he briefly talks about his short time on the LOTR production.
Quote: ‘I spent two months working on it in pre-production in New Zealand,’ Townsend says ‘and then,the day before shooting started,I was off the picture without filming a single scene.’ His cheery demeanour changes at the mention of the film. It was a ‘horrible’ experience, he says, and not one he’s keen to dwell upon to any extent, although he is becoming more philosophical about it. ‘Now I am glad that I’m off it. I really am. It was a very interesting experience, but I’m glad because it left me free to do another big studio movie, Queen of the Damned, which was wonderful to do”
Eeeep! Thanks to Cormac for that.
Finally the trailer’s opened here and we’ve got some responses to the project that’s been going on round our ears for over a year. The NZ Heraldwas there, as was TV3 who included quite a lot of footage from the trailer.
Super Spy Fleagol got his hands on the latest Entertainment Weekly and sent us these scans. WOW!
