Re: 6 days till the preview!
You think YOU guys are excited, they sent out the 4th day graphic to the Tolkien movie site Webmasters early today. I've gotten so many graphics for this countdown I'm losing track of where I am!

It´s here!!!
i´ve been watching it, though i´m having problems: i can only see it once after waiting a lot to load. When i try to play it again Quick Time hangs down. Besides, my net access also have hang down several times.
WARNING, TRAILER SPOILERS BELOW! Need i to say it´s worth enough? You cannot see anything with the details you´d desire, but playing it in slow motion... well i think it gives stuff enough to keep us discussing for a couple of months. hehe, Arwen has her ears neatly covered by her hair, i think nobody could say if she´s an elf or a woman, but perhaps that was the true intention of Tolkien. My fave shot is that of the fell orcs running in a battle. Awesome. We have also some shots of the "scale effect" between hobbits and men. It seems that PJ is going to force a lot the pitch of the shots. I like the pan down to the approach of the back riders to the hobbits, but i´m not sure i like the shot of the hobbits staring to the riders. The music is quite well, but i hope better things for the movie. Well, there is a lot more stuff, and many shots i couldn´t recognize. I´ll leave it to y´all. Perhaps we can do a detailed shot-by-shot schedule of the trailer. I think the first shot we see is a fantastic recreation of the house of Celeborn & Galadriel. Great! |

Re: It´s here!!!
Okay... it's been quite the adventure getting the trailer today... I'll tell you guys more about it sometime. It's quite the intruiging anecdote, I assure you. But on to the trailer itself...
GOD I WANT TO SEE THIS FILM!!!!!! This, my friends, is the one to line up for come Christmas 2001, 2002, and 2003. I'm on the pavement for this one. I am THERE. The orc design is absolutely brilliant. This is how orcs were meant to look. It really doesn't get that much better than that. The Black Riders... if they're this terrifying in the trailer imagine how they're going to be in the film! Of course, the thing I really loved about the trailer was the cool forging of the Ring transition effect. Man, this looks incredible. Except... well, maybe Aragorn will look taller in the film... I expected him to be taller than he looked. Arwen doesn't look bad at all, but I'm seriously worried about what they've done to her role, and the trailer doesn't relieve that one bit... in fact, I'm even more worried now because she's one of the first-billed names at the end of the trailer. Oh well, maybe it's because Liv Tyler is well known and say, Orlando Bloom is not... One thing - that shot of the HUGE army of orcs coming in over the field... I can't think of where that might be except Pelennor. Could they have shot Pelennor already? Curious. |
