LoTR: Return of the King - Pictures, spy reports and spoilers thread (ongoing)

many

[Mamzelle]

Something to cheer about--study the box office stats for December and January at boxofficemojo.com . "Gangs" hasn't made its money back, and it looks as if "Chicago" and "Hours" haven't, either. Nothing touches TTT for success.

Pic of all the guys (sans hobbits and Gandalf) riding like the opening to Bonanza....

Think they may be dropping the Grey Company off at the Paths of the Dead.

[dixierose]

Thanks for the pic!! It'll be interesting to see who's right about where they are going.

[ksen]

Maybe all heros of Gondor get to wear stuff like that.

Heh, yeah, we Gondorians are just naturally cool. ;^)

[ksen]

Anyway, that's what I think...I think he's riding toward the Morannon, proclaimed as king by Imrahil.

Well alrighty then, until I hear a better reason, that's the one I'm sticking with. ;^)

[HairOfTheDog]

Spoiler alert!

Careful! He's got a knife!

[2Jedismom]

Excellent!

[HairOfTheDog]

Heh.... Doesn't it look like the girl in the hat has just realized she is in the wrong place?

Excuse me.... is this the tour group going to the art museum?

Hi, HOTD!

[HairOfTheDog]

More pics of Smeagol and Deagol in the boat...

[HairOfTheDog]

The RoTK countdown clock is here!

Click the Pic....

[RMDupree]

Thanks for the spoiler pics, Hair! FMM!

Looks like Grima is getting ready to make an end to Saruman. Goody goody!

And that poor girl looks like she saying to herself "Well this certainly doesn't look like the Ladies Social Club to me!"

Oh, and may I add that Smeagol (if that is his face we see on the boat) was not very friendly looking to begin with. EEwwwwwwww!

[maquiladora]

Wormtongue on the roof of Orthanc, before he slashes Saruman's neck and sends him spinning down on the infamous spikey wheel!
I wonder if it will still be Legolas who shoots and kills Wormtongue?
I've seen this pic a few months ago Hair, but this is the thread it belongs to now! :-)

Roll on Dec 17th! Dear oh dear, it is so very far away!

[Mamzelle]

An end to Sharkey!

FROM TheOneRing.net™ Yesterday:

RoTK Two Towers Preview Rumours
Demosthenes @ 1:37 am EST

In March last year, Peter Jackson attached a four-minute Two Towers preview to the end of Fellowship of the Ring. It's starting to seem quite likely that he'll be doing a similar thing for Two Towers. This of course gives us something to look forward to in just over a month's time. Check out this spoilericious report from the boards of Comingsoon.net.

This report was posted on the Comingsoon.net forums on January 30 by Jedi5150. Now, keep in mind that at this stage it's still pretty rumoursome, but this is what Jedi5150 had to say:

"SOURCES" are reporting that PJ in the coming weeks will be viewing fine cut and complete footage of RoTK for the extended preview to added to TTT in March. "THEY" say that PJ has a short list of certain scenes he wants to put in and then he will view any other footage to add and make it complete. According to "SOME" this is what PJ's list is said to include:

• Aragorn handing the brooch back to it's rightful owner, Pippin. This sounds cool, because if you remember TTT preview the opening scene was of Aragorn picking up Pippin's brooch, and to have the preview of RoTK to start with this scene, it makes for a great continuation. That would (also) be our first glimpse of the reunion aka the road to Isengard.
  
• Ride of the Rohirrim
  
• Merry pledging his sword
  
• Pippin approaching the palantir
  
• Shots establishing Gondor, perhaps moments before the SIEGE OF GONDOR
  
• The meeting between Faramir and Eowyn
  
• Establishing shots of Pellenor fields
  
• Mouth of Sauron
  
• Aragorn walking up to the palantir
  
• Pippin riding with Gandalf on Shadowfax
  
• Shots establishing moments before the battle at the black gate
  
• Aragorn in his Gondorian armor, riding into battle
  
• Paths of the dead
  
• "Minor" shots of Shelob

(And although) they do not want to show too much... Denethor

FINALLY (for) THE BIG FINALE, I have possible dialouge to go with this one ... Frodo and Sam by the crack of Doom, SAM: DESTROY it Mr. Frodo! FRODO: no ... I will not destroy it! THE RING IS MINE!!!
