From GodlyWench:

Only just found this as I logged on to my AOL account (UK) might be too late to join in but they might print highlights tomorrow or something. “Star of upcoming film ‘Bandits’ Cate Blanchett will be joining AOL Live for a chat on Tuesday 9 October at 10pm.“

It’s short notice…but any Ringer out there who pays a visit to the chat, write up a report on it and send it in!

From Anders:

I just saw in the commercials on Swedish channel 4 that they will have a show this Saturday called “Bionytt”, about the films that will be released this year. There was quite a lot of footage from LOTR, and I hope there will be more on Saturday.

Chris from TheRingsofPower.net mailed me to say that eMerchandise have got four new Fellowship of the Ring posters in and ready for sale. Each one depicts a scene from the films, with some decoration to make them look even prettier. These posters just seem to get better and better… [More]

I recently bought inquest magazine and there is an advertisement for the lotr fanclub. There is a small sign at the bottom that says join the lotr official fanclub (there’s a phone number and website i believe thats where you join) the number is 1-800-451-6381, the website is www.lotrfanclub.com, but I couldnt get to it but maybe someone else might have some luck.

(The site is not active yet, and the number is busy whenever I call..whoever gets through, drop us a line -Xo)
