Early news, but maybe you like lots of advance warning: Respected magazine Cinefex will be covering TTT’s effects in issue 92 early next year. The classy ad for it is here. Thanks to Richard for the link.
We running short of Orli news? Oh no! Here’s a clipping from the Daily Mirror which is on OrlandoNews. [More] Thanks to HobbitLover for the link.
Release dates in Hong Kong, Mainland China, South Korea and Taiwan; can anyone confirm that Japan won’t see TTT until next March? Dubbing vs. subtitles….Ringer spy Lucifer also mentions LOTR SFX man Jim Rygiel’s coming appearance at a Taiwanese animation festival. There will also be a big Ringer event in Taiwan for TTT. [More]
Lucifer wrties that Jim Rygiel will visit Taiwan on October 20.(He’s heard that Jim will complete his part of work around October 18(!!!)) Rygiel will be one of the three instructors at Taiwan’s International Animation Seminar.
Lucifer also sent in the details about the release of TTT in various Asian countries, and offered some options for fans in the area.
“Will it be dubbed or subtitled?” asked a fan? Lucifer wrote “I’m not sure about Korea. In Mainland China , most of the copies will be dubbed( like in Japan). But there would be a subtitled version in big cities (Like Beijing ….)”
In Japan, TTT won’t come out til March, according to Ringer fan Abby. [Is that true? – T] She was wondering if there were countries nearby where she might see it earlier.
In South Korea, FOTR didn’t come out until January this year, and on mainland China, not until April. If the same thing’s going to happen with TTT, fans might be interested in another suggestion from Lucifer: Taiwan’s release date of TTT will be December 21 or 28 (Not yet confirmed), it’s close enough. “We Ringers in Taiwan are organizing an thousand-Ringer gathering( The biggest theater in Taiwan already agreed to this, it has 1200 seats). Maybe you can join us. According other Ringers, they have friends in Japan considering this option.”
