I recently was flipping through the channels and caught a shoe commercial playing one of The Fellowship of the Ring scores! I couldn’t believe it. I wish I could remember what brand of shoe it was. It might of been a local company, but I’m certain that the music was actually ‘Concerning Hobbits’ from The Fellowship of the Ring.
Shelton writes: While watching TV, a KIA commercial came on advertising their ” Test drive a KIA and get a free Fellowship DVD ” offer. It started out with an SUV in the woods, and then a horde of Ringwraiths on their steeds came galloping up (it was very reminiscent of Arwen’s flight to the Ford scene with Frodo) Then suddenly one of the wraiths pulls off his hood and low and behold it is “Bob” from the KIA dealership who tells them about their great new offer.
Zach and Sleezy both wrote in to say that two days ago on the television show “Farscape”, Bruce Spence (Mouth of Sauron) was a prominent guest star in the episode ‘A Prefect Murder’.
‘Middle Earth inhabitants have bought more than 250,000 copies of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring since video and DVD versions of the movie went on sale around New Zealand on Monday. The film’s distributor is staggered by the success, especially the demand for the DVD version.’ [More]
