Maquiladora reports from TORN on the Pop Goes the Evil thread...

With a certain level of secrecy, the top brass at New Line Cinema just got back from a visit to New Zealand. As the rumor has it, they were there for an update on the status of The Two Towers and to see a 'rough-cut' of the film. The information we have tells us they absolutely loved what they saw. Most seemed to agree that it was even better then Fellowship of the Ring.

I should have posted that, but I forgot about it! oops!

Thanks for passing it along, I was excited to hear that.

BTW, this week they are supposed to start shooting additional footage or doing re-shoots with some of the cast--Sean Astin (Sam) and Elijah Wood (Frodo) for sure, can't remember if anyone else is involved.

Did you all know they're going to have some additional Boromir footage in TTT or RotK? That sounds intriguing--I wonder if they will be doing flashbacks to Faramir and Boromir and Daddy-dearest discussing their dreams and who should attend the Council.

C'mon HOTD, out with it. How is it? What's different? Do they show the flying Nazgul? We promise not to tell PJ you reneged on your promise! ;^)
