Continue ReadingFinally, the first official trailer for The Return of the King arrived on September 27th. Most ringers seem to agree that it is simply the best trailer even shown in a theater, and it’s quite hard to disagree with them. First glimpse of Shelob, Minas Tirith under siege, the rohirrim massing before the charge on the Pelennor. Let’s make the wait for this Christmas a bit more bearable by having a closer look at the trailer in #thehalloffire this weekend.[More]
Finally, the first official trailer for The Return of the King arrived on September 27th. Most ringers seem to agree that it is simply the best trailer even shown in a theater, and it’s quite hard to disagree with them. First glimpse of Shelob, Minas Tirith under siege, the rohirrim massing before the charge on the Pelennor. Let’s make the wait for this Christmas a bit more bearable by having a closer look at the trailer in #thehalloffire this weekend.
First and foremost; does the trailer meet with your expectations of The Return of the King? What kind of ‘feel’ do you think this last instalment of the trilogy has compared to the two prior movies?
Minas Tirith, Cirith Ungol, the Pelennor, Minas Morgul, Frodo with the phial of Galadriel, Aragorn on the paths of the dead; are these places and situations how you imagined them to be?
We will of course also discuss that famous first glimpse of Shelob, and debate more detailed matters like whos voiceover we are hearing, and what Aragorn and Legolas are talking about in Edoras. Join us in #thehalloffire as we take a look at the trailer that has brought ringers all around the world to a frenzy.

From Kansas.com: Patty Ehrlich could easily have won the Best Mom in Wichita award Thursday, at least from her 14-year-old son. She was first in line for tickets to the one-time-only marathon showing of entire “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy at the east-side Warren Theatre. [More]

Wild Bill writes: Hello, after reading a recent article on your site about a possible hidden image of Peter Jackson from what looked to be a still frame from TTT extended, I decided to email you 2 images that I have noticed to be just like that. The first is from the Fellowship, so if it’s already been reported and I missed it, I apologize. [More]

The first is from the Fellowship, so if it’s already been reported and I missed it, I apologize.
The image in the Fellowship is from Chapter 16 after Gandalf communicates with the little flying critter, it flashes to falling trees and orcs and such. The image “in question” is when an orc is tossing a log into the fire, there is what appears to be a face in the wall, somewhat hidden by a flame. I see this every time and it’s been driving me nuts.
The second image is from TTT, Chapter 30, entitled “Arwen’s Fate.” Arwen is standing by Aragorn’s grave in tears – what I spotted was a ship sailing in the clouds behind her, hinting the ship the elves set sail on.
Hopefully these images don’t make me look insane, or someone who just saw the obvious and assumed he’s the only one. Either way, here’s the images. Maybe you have a better way to get the images, mine were taken with a webcam looking at my TV.
