Elisa Lipsky-Karasz writes: I hear that New Line Cinema is out for blood over Monday’s catastrophic Washington screening of its Christmas blockbuster “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.” I’m told that the first full-dress battle scene, more than a hour into the 3-hour, 17-minute epic, was run upside-down for some 30 critics at the Loews Georgetown. “At first I thought, ‘Wow, that’s a totally cool camera angle, from the perspective of someone who was felled in the battle,” one witness told me yesterday. Baltimore Sun movie critic Michael Sragow said: “It was the first massing of forces, and you got these elephant creatures coming on screen upside down. Obviously, it was about the worst way to see a movie.” Worse still, the influential audience had to wait 45 minutes while the projectionist re-threaded the film, only to restart it after a huge gap in the action. In due course, an upside-down Frodo appeared, and the screening was halted again for another 45 minutes. “Obviously we’re upset as anyone would be, and we’re in discussions with Loews,” a chagrined New Line spokeswoman told me. “We want to know if Gollum was in the projection booth.”

Kristina: I just wanted to give you guys a little report on what my sister’s and I saw on the red carpet at the DVD Awards last night. Apparantly Billy, Dominic, John Rhyes, and Andy Serkis were supposed to be there but, only Dominic, John, and Andy showed. In any case, we met all three and were able to get our Fellowship Visual Companion autographed (It was already autographed by Viggo, Peter J, Fran Walsh, Philippa, Sean Astin, and Sir Ian McKellen). They were all verious gracious and ever willing to interact with their fans. I even got a kiss from John. He was very sweet. [More]
