<\/center><\/p>\nRinger Spy POD<\/b> sends along this interesting bit of information. <\/p>\n
Just to let you know I know that some more filming will be going on near Mt Ruapehu shortly as I am part of a -snip-<\/b> and have seen evidence that filming will be taking place.<\/p>\n
The filming is suppose to happen between 25-31 May 02 so I will check then whether I will be up there, I will keep you informed.<\/i><\/p>\n
Mt Ruapehu<\/b> archive information:<\/p>\n
For the past 3 years we at TheOneRing.net have covered many locations all over New Zealand. We have quite a few news stories about Mt Ruapehu, including some great pictures! Take a look!<\/p>\n
PJ and his crew visit the mountain on a scouting trip back in late ’99<\/a><\/p>\n Ianman contributed this little image of one of the signposts the production company uses to point the way to filming – in this case, round Ruapehu in early 2000<\/a><\/p>\n The Y2000 Mordor Walk, a gang of TORNadoes head on up Ruapehu in search of Mordor…<\/a><\/p>\n TORN staffer Thorongil recounts his tale of visiting the mountain in his NZ exclusive report, 2000<\/a><\/p>\n Super Spy Xtem tells all about the scenes previously shot at the mountain in this report from May 23rd, 2000<\/a><\/p>\n Tehanu dishes the news to us from one of the many sets she has seen in New Zealand back in 2000, this report dates back to May 26th, 2000<\/a><\/p>\n Womans Weekly Magazine scored some really great shots from Ruapehu back in late May 2000. They captured what looks like scenes from The Two Towers with Sam and Frodo!<\/a><\/p>\n Ian sends us an amazing set report with pictures from Ruapehu back in June of 2000. He writes; “Mordor filming, Mt Ruapehu-style. The huge banks of orange lights were apparently not to counter the strong blue sky, but to give the filming an evil colour (such as beneath a thick smoke layer in Mordor).” COOL!!<\/a><\/p>\n
