The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I like peanut butter. Have not tried this diet, tho, but have eaten some peanut butter (w/o sugar added) while following lo carb diets.

Good morning! - [blink]
I need more sleep! Any news in the country?
Mr. Rogers had to go? snif...I grew up watching him. Wonder if he will wear the wing-tips or the sneakers in heaven. Heh....
To: HairOfTheDog; g'nad; ksen
I think when new folk are around we should all wear skivvies. You'll never get g'nad to go for that.

I didn't know Mr. Rogers was Presbyterian. Was he a Presbyterian Pastor? Would OP have approved? ;^)

FROM TORN:

New Line: 'No Plans for ROTK trailer behind TTT'
leo @ 1:25 pm EST
Well, I think we woke someone up with the last batch of rumors.. Apparently there will not be a trailer for The Return of the King attached to The Two Towers, that is at least what ComingSoon.net is reporting...
Word has it that New Line Cinema will copy last year's strategy when they placed a new preview for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers at the end of the first film after it had played in theaters for some time. The rumor is that the studio will attach a preview for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King at the end of "The Two Towers" in March.
Not so, the studio tells us. New Line says that there are currently no plans to attach a clip for the third and final installment onto the second film.
That, of course, doesn't rule out the possibility we'll see a new trailer for "Return of the King" soon. New Line has Willard coming out on March 14 and then A Man Apart on April 4. Both could be candidates for them to attach a trailer to.
Source: ComingSoon.net
So there we have it; there are no plans (at the moment) to attach the trailer at the end of The Two Towers, but we just might get to see it in front of another movie...
