DonDavis sends in word about the teaser and theatrical trailers for ‘Return of the King’, when we can expect them, and more intestingly WHAT we can see in the teaser! I’ve yet to confirm this is the real deal mind you, so take it all with a grain of salt. However, this news can be considered a Spoiler!! [More]
Update: Ringer Spy Mike and Ringer Spy Jeff have combined to land what appears to be a killer blow against any hope of an RoTK Teaser Trailer. Looks like we’ll all have to wait for the DVD stuff. [More]

DonDavis writes: My name ** and I work for ** and I have recently been looking at you website and have noticed that you have shown a lot of interest in the return of the king trailer. I can now tell you that a teaser trailer will be released buy the end of July and a theatrical trailer buy the end of September.
I have only seen part of the teaser trailer, it showed clips from Minas Tirith and the battle at the black gate. It also showed brief clips of Gandalf riding with a hobbit (Pippin?) through some woods and Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas in the mountain of Erech, But nothing of Sauron, if you were wondering.

LadyOfRohan writes: The guests on the Charlie Rose show episode that aired last night (July 2nd) on my local PBS station were three film critics. Charlie Rose asked them to name their favorite movie. The answers were 2001:A Space Odyssey, L.A. Confidential and “Lord of the Rings, Parts 1 and 2”. All four of them then had high praise for Peter Jackson.

Moz writes: Ian McKellen (Gandalf) was interviewed on Home Truths, TV3 last night by John Campbell. Apparently he has now finished his reshoots for ROTK and has headed off back to the UK. There is supposedly a transcript of the Home Truths interview somewhere on TV3’s website but I can’t find it. (RealPlayer needed) [More]

From IMDB: The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Wednesday converted its marketing “guidelines” under which filmmakers can campaign for Oscars to “regulations” and warned that any member “who has authorized, approved or executed a campaign activity that is determined by the Board of Governors to have undermined the letter or spirit of these regulations will be subject to suspension of membership or expulsion from the Academy.” It also warned that if there were serious violations of the rules, a film could lose its eligibility for Awards consideration. In a statement, Academy President Frank Pierson said, “There will now be personal consequences to improper campaigning.” In an interview with today’s (Thursday) Los Angeles Times, Pierson added that stripping a film of its eligibility is “a weapon we’ve never used, but we are definitely putting it out there.”
What could this possibly mean as far as ‘For Oscar, Please’ ROTK ads? Who knows.
