  • Back when we wore more clothes, my precioussss…

    Take a gander at Smeagol over at Ain’t It Cool News–is this a flash back scene? We don’t know yet…

  • Gollum at his best, my precioussss…

    The folks over at the official site have a five-part, informative interview of Andy Serkis to read, plus Gollum screensavers to download!

  • Misery loves company…

    Brave enough to look at these pictures from Ain’t Cool News? Are you sure?…these are pictures from The Return of the King…you will gasp!

  • Every picture has a story…

    If you haven’t done so already, then here is some encouragement–the Tolkien Society of New Zealand is urging us all to read the trilogy, “If (they) do, it will make the story as portrayed in the film so much richer” –read the whole story at Stuff

  • A Happy New Mojo to us all!

    At Box Office Mojo you can see just how much money The Two Towers has brought in! Hmmmm….how much of that is thanks to you, my dears? A lot, I bet!

  • Perfection

    “Nobody could find fault with this film.” Read another review of The Two Towers, this time from a London Premiere perspective, at Ain’t It Cool News

  • Not for the squeamish?

    Here is an article at Reuters with more hints as to what to expect from The Two Towers–and be sure to read the last line, a bit of The Return of the King there!

  • In the nick of time

    At Sideshow Toy you will find miniature weapon collections. The Arms of the Fellowship, of Legolas, of Gimil, of the Hobbits, of the Nazgul, and of the Moria Orcs are made from polystone and are very nicely detailed.

  • Opportunity knocks!

    Ain’t It Cool News has a lengthy and detailed review (with pictures, even!) of The Two Towers by a lucky person who was at the New York Pemiere! I would rate this article PG-13 in places for language…but still, it makes for fun reading!
