The biggest Finnish newspaper, Helsingin Sanomat, has a LOTR ad in the Saturday (Oct 27) issue on movie pages. The ad picture shows silhouettes of the Fellowship walking on a ridge. Over the picture there’s text (in Finnish):
“53 days to Middle Earth. The Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring. In theaters December 19.”
Black Wolf chimes in to report that Games Workshop’s monthly magazine (November #262) has a whole section about the new LOTR game! Take a look! [More]
The great thing about casting actors for characters is, every has a different opinion on it and a prime example of this was in the early stages of making Lord of the Rings into a movie, when every person seemed to have their own opinion on a role. This weekend the Hall of Fire discusses the Cast of Lord of the Rings. [More]
From Cameron:
I don’t know if you want to make mention of this (you may already have done), but my local Games Workshop store (Greensborough, Victoria, Australia) has a couple of the painted LOTR miniatures in it’s windows (Gandalf, Pippin, and a few rank and file troops). If the one in Greensborough has them (and Greensborough is commonly referred to as ‘out in the sticks’) then I dare say the city store would have them as well.
From George:
I just wanted to inform you that you could obtain your own elf, gondorian, or goblin, from Games Workshop. There is a painting contest going on, and you can get a free miniature from them, and paint it, and you could win a free starter set. I have my own spiffy elven bowman, so you may just want to pick one up if you can or inform people of their opportunities.
(If anyone has any more info on this contest, where to pick one up, or any other reports about Games-workshop, send them My Way!)
