Ringer Spy Lapp took his Hollow Man juice and traveled down to the Edoras set and snapped a few pics!
Ringer Spy Dwarvo risks an Orc attack and braves the dangers that is Lake Mavora and gets some great snaps of the LOTR set! I’m thinking Boromir’s Funeral at Emyn Muil? What do you think?

Hi just writing to tell you that I stumbled across a LOTR site yesterday the 12-09-00. Its at mavora lakes 45k nw of mossburn southland, I was tipped off about it by a guy and his wife going to the lake to fish when they came across it. When I finally got there (what a mission) I could not believe the magnitude of it, it was huge. I saw the security guard on his post when i got there but i just drove on by as if i never saw him. I continued on until I came right up to the set, i came face to face with a land buggy which was towing a trailer with some what looked like extras with costumes on, they were so close. I was trying to get past as if i were there to do some fishing on the lake but was stopped by a security guard who told me i could not get through. There was misty smoke every where to the point where i could not see, so i reversed up and left the area, but as i was leaving i noticed another little road going down to the lake front where the guard could not see me. So I went down there and sneaked a few shots of them filming a boat scene on the lake.

” ‘Welcome to Middle-Earth’
That’s the title of the article about ‘The Lord of the Rings’ movie production in the Sci-Fi News magazine. The september edition brought a two-pages report wih everything about the movie, and also lots of informations about the fantasy genre moveis in Hollywood. Brazilian fans can run to get it!
Another thing that surprised me is the sub-title: “In an era where the space batles of ‘Star Wars’ dominate the public, the classic ‘Lord of the Rings’ promess to be one of the greatest cinematograph attractions of the beginning of the century.'”
