Just wanted to let you know it seems like channel 4 in Sweden will have a report about LOTR fashion in the program Frivolt tomorrow (1/10) at 8.30 pm. First they viewed a few clips from the second trailer and then they showed some kind of fashion show and said the next program would be about “LOTR fashion”. Clothes inspired by the movies perhaps? I have no idea actually, it sounded a bit strange to me too. Well, guess I’ll find out tomorrow… 🙂

Frodo Lover sends in word on a book fair this past weekend on Queen Street in Toronto. [More]
From: Frodo Lover
Today (September 30th) was the Toronto Book Fair!!! I went down to take a look at the fair, which took up all of Queen Street, to see if there was any Lord of the Rings booths. Hey and what do ya know booth number 214 there was a giant cardboard standup of Gandalf and also one of the four Hobbits, promoted by Harper Collins. I was quite disapointed they oney had the Black versions of the Trilogy and thats all they had.
They also had tattoos, two different kinds, and bookmaks which had Bilbo and Saruman on them promoting the movie. They said I could only have tattos and bookmarks if I bought something, since I already had this set I did not need to buy them. I was glad to see the booth was packed I think this will be really good for sales in Toronto!!!! Hope some others got to go as well.
