December 3rd. 7 days to go \'til the very first premiere in London. 16 days to go \'til I will be able to see it. And the reviews ( from early screenings ) thus far has been EXCELLENT.

Rolling Stone rated it no. 1 on the top 10 this year.

Here\'s a link to a very positive review ( that will give you a good image of what is to come ): http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=10911



I have been waiting forward to this movie since christmas \'99. Meaning that I have checked few of the LotR movie-sites ( TheOneRing.net for example ) in daily basis for two years, gathering all the info, script excerpts and images I have gotten. Now I have a pretty clear image of what I am facing, and that image is dark, depressing, emotional but BEAUTIFUL.

Even if you have never read the books, go and see the film.
So, am I the only one excited, or is this countdown going for nothing?

There was a post about this a while back that asked people which movie they thought would do better, LOTR or Harry Potter... I said Harry Potter, but we will still have to see.

I hope Lord of the ring makes more money and that Harry Potter\'s record is taken away right after they got it.

I doubt it though...

You\'re not the only one, Darth...I can\'t wait for this movie either.  I saw the trailer when it premiered during an episode of Angel, and it blew my mind...it looks exactly like you would imagine Middle-Earth would, and the Ringwraiths look evil as all Hell...I\'m already practically standing in line for this one...

I think New Zealand is the second place that gets to see it. Thats where it is made. A lot of it was shot about an hours drive away from where I live.

I\'ve got my ticket for it

Isn\'t there good Kiwi in New Zealand?

I know how to say New Zealand in Chinese:

Xinxilan

It means the "Great West Orchid"

I take chinese, ;)

Not gonna beat Potter at the box office IMO.

Heard that the sequels are already filmed and are ready for releases in 2002 and 2003?
