Lord of the Rings:
Return of the King!
Pictures, spy reports and spoilers thread (ongoing)

Countdown to December!

Beyond this point there be spoilers!

Don't want spoilers? – Click HERE and don't look back!

Don't say we didn't warn you! Spoilers are what this thread is all about. So bring your rumors (substantiated or not!), spoilers, spy reports, and bones of contention about them here as the snippets of RoTK news, photos and interviews come rolling in.

I wouldn't even recommend pinging people to this thread unless you know they want to see them. There are a lot of purists out there that hate to have anything given away before the movie comes out. I, however, am not one of those.

I will start a "RoTK spoilers ping list" separate from the other Tolkien ping lists… so let me know if you want to be on the spoiler alert list!" If we use this thread for that kind of stuff, we won't shock people who don't want to see it. (though I bet they look anyway!)

Report 'em if you got 'em!

One tip….. Don't embed images from TORN (TheOneRing.Net) on this thread. If possible, load the image to another server, or just post a link to the TORN page. TORN's servers are powered by fleas I think, and are horrendously slow, particularly when they have something that is particularly good!

Well, see...that just makes it harder for me to decide. I really would only go to support my line. And I'm considered one of the original line members...

I'll probably go.

[maquiladora]

My line party is getting together to see this Lions film...I am still debating if I should go. I kinda want to support my line, but I hate going to the movies...usually...

Remember, than even though Secondhand Lions is opening tomorrow, the ROTK trailer won't be attached to that movie until next friday, the 26th.

Yep, look out for the trailer to go up on the offical site in the latest Quicktime format. It will probably debut the day before it opens with Lions or maybe the same day. Not sure. The trailer has been delayed because PJ insisted on making it something special, he wanted to wait for WETA to finish some of the major FX shots so he could show them off in this trailer, which by the way, will be the only trailer for Return Of The King.

Sorry about the double post guys.

As to where I found this out. It's mostly just from websites and a couple of other things. No great secret! :-)

[HairOfTheDog]

will be the only trailer for Return Of The King.

I will appreciate all and whatever he lets us see!

[2Jedismom]

OK! OK! OK!

;-)

[2Jedismom]

Our party is scheduled for the 27th...

[maquiladora]

Sounds like a safe bet.

I hope this trailer is worth the wait! We've really been promised a lot.

And this V. nice picture of Aragorn http://www.councilofelrond.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=My_eGallery&file=index&do=showpic&pid=13075&orderby=titleA

Sorry about the messiness of this comment I amot on my laptop with all my stuff and I didn't feel like doing it right.

[HairOfTheDog]

It's OK FBF! We'll take sloppy presentation on new stuff!

Spoiler alert!

See above!

[radiohead]

I'm glad to see the crown. I have a paperback that has cover art w/a really stupid looking crown on Aragorn. The wings go outward instead of lying flat against the head. This is much better. The pic of him all dressed up in battle ain't bad either!

[2Jedismom]

FMM!

[Fire-Breathing_Freeper]

Like this one?

[Fire-Breathing_Freeper]

Uh Here is anotherpicture of Gandalf, and a better one of Aragorn. Aragorn Game Poster

[Ayn Rand wannabe]

Try this site www.lotruk.com. It has a name translator on it. Worth a laugh, I think.

My names:
If you were a Hobbit, your name would be Clovyan Norcross
and if you were a (female) Man, your name would be Zerraweth
and if you were an Elf, your name would be Elriowiel
and if you were a Dwarf, your name would be Rullyra
and if you were an Orc, your name would be Gushnak
Your nearest Tavern might be called The Open Book
and your sword would be called Aigthais

[radiohead]

OMG!!! That's awful. The one on my book is almost as bad, but the wings aren't as tall. Sheesh...

[HairOfTheDog]

See above... Nice shot of Gandalf out there on the plaza.... Gorgeous sets again folks... this is fonna be a great film.

I think I have the same one. Is that the dorky one with the HUGH white wings?
