While The Biting Faery<\/b> sends along a great tale of meeting a star from LOTR. I truly do not believe that Chrisopher Tolkien was at Comic-Con, but I can confirm that this LOTR star was!<\/p>\n
Yesterday (Saturday, July 21st) was, as you know, the NewLine Lord of the Rings promo presentation. <\/p>\n
Well, later on that day my love Jeffrey and I heard the loudspeaker paging a ‘Christopher Tolkien’. We rushed on over to the Show Office to see if we could catch a glimpse of him, but no luck. I had my doubts as to whether or not it was the real Christopher Tolkien until about an hour later. <\/p>\n
We were waiting in line to get renowned faery artists Brian and Wendy Froud’s autographs. Jeffrey sat down on the floor and I crouched beside him. I looked up for a moment and did a double take as Elijah Wood, Frodo himself, walked by us. Quickly I told Jeffrey (who thought I was joking at first), grabbed his hand, and we pursued the hobbit. He stopped to look at a booth when I slipped next to him and uttered a very shy “Mr. Wood?” He turned around and I gushed some sort of babble about how much Jeff and I were excited over the film, how we thought he was a wonderful choice for Frodo, etc. etc. etc. and Jeffrey told him how he had been a fan of his since ‘Radio Flyer.’ <\/p>\n
Elijah was very polite and kind, as well as softspoken with his ‘thank you’s’ and whatnot. We ended by shaking hands and thanking him for his time. <\/p>\n
This confirmed our thought that it was indeed the real Christopher Tolkien who was paged. I wonder if any other of the movie’s stars were there… <\/p>\n
