Harry Potter my hairy a$$!! The LOTR trilogy will be THE biggest thing since sliced bread.

And yes, Peter Jackson is the first in the world to film a trilogy at one time. The sequels still need a lot of effect work though (that\'s what they\'re gonna spend the next year or so on).
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

You guys should of seen Minis Tirith in real life. At least I think it was Minis Tirith. It looked so cool. They like built the whole thing, not like some movies. Like it was a town or something. You could walk into every room and the whole room was filled with stuff even if it was a room that wasnt gonna be shown in the movie

lol - I did see them Lady :) Few of my friends from TolkienOnline got interviewed as well.


Our local theater started pre-selling the tickets today - but I\'m not going to get them yet ( as I haven\'t yet planned with my friends whether we attend the midnight showing on tuesday/wednesday night or not - which would, btw., start a minute earlier than in Helsinki :) ). There was a \'making of\' document on Sweden\'s TV4 last Tuesday, and it was AWE-SOME. Some of the scenes just looked mind-blowing.


They also showed a 1 minute clip of the Moria sequence. OMFG. That\'s the best i can do to describe the feeling I got.

The movie is going to ROCK the **** out of Star Wars AND Harry \'the nerd\' Potter

Why are you folks in Finland / Sweden etc. going to get the film released so soon?  New Line is an american company, and usually the films are released in the US first.  Then they take a few months to prepare the international releases, and loop the other languages into the audio.  

For LOTR, do you think you\'re going to get a version in your national language, an english language version with subtitles, or will you just get the same version we get (english language / no subtitles)?

LOTR is a DEFINITE for me.  I\'ve read these books over and over through my years..and can\'t wait to see this production.  Other attempts typically have sucked lemons...but this version simply looks superb.  Can\'t wait!!!

Not like in Germany, Italy, France they dub everything.. :D

I slept outside the cinema for 3 days with almost 100 other peeps there.... Yes, I GOT THE TICKETS :)
It is 5 years ago since first time I touched the LOTR book :) I have been reading that book 3 times now and it is realy the best story ever to be told. I saw Harry Potter yesteday, it was a good movie...... but not the best I have seen. Now I know what all the hype is all about. Kid movie
MM told me to have a 5 line signature. I count now

Coredweller: it\'s going to be in english but subtitled. Would be crazy to have finnish dubs - would ruin the whole movie :)


Yes, it is a world-wide release - and reasons to it, I believe, are the facts that the movie is VERY expensive, and because all the three movies were filmed at once. But, I\'m happy this way - and actually show Mr. Lucas the middle-finger for not doing the same with Star Wars!

I will go and get my tickets in an hour! Yeah.


Also, yesterday there was a two-minute clip of Frodo and Gandalf  sitting in Bag-End, Gandalf throwing the Ring into the fire on BBC1, an american channel. I\'m waiting someone to upload it online, you see ;)



BUMKICK!
up you go.
