Lord Of The Rings Trilogy: Extras

**Leiali** · December 30th, 2004, 06:35 AM

I went to the exhibition at the science museum just over a year ago! It was really good - very pricey for such a short tour but worth it as the weta workshop stuff, the costumes etc were great.

I don't like animals as a general rule and probably my favourite bit on the extras on the dvd was the Horses of Rohan. Some really amazing people worked on it, and some pretty amazing horses - I felt as though I knew them all by the end of it. Particularly Viggo Mortenson's horse and Blanca. Great stuff!

Aunt Pam, are you still having trouble finding the easter eggs?

This is how you do it (it's been a while though...):

Pop in the first disc of FOTR, TTT, or ROTK. Go to 'Scene Selection', then bring up the LAST few scenes on the disc. Scroll down through them. When you're at the LAST scene on the disc, scroll down one more time and a RING should appear. Press 'enter' on the Ring, and you should have your Easter Egg.

FOTR and ROTK have one on each disc, TTT has it only on the first disc I believe.

Thanks, Evil Agent. I've been looking for the ring on the menu screens -- didn't realize it was hidden, like a . . . like an Easter Egg. Duh me.

I will try again. Isn't one of them supposed to be Gollum at the MTV Awards? I've never seen that.

I feel like this whole 5-year LOTR journey has been a little bit of a dream (just as Frodo felt when coming back to the Shire).

I'm pretty sure The Hobbit has been announced to 2007, at least that's what I heard.

Regarding the Lord of the Rings Extras, my favourite deleted scene has to be the one when Aragorn, Gandalf, Gimli, and one of the hobbits, stand in front of the black gate and are greeted by Sauron's Mouth. I have no idea why they never included it in the theatrical version.

As far as I'm aware, there is absolutely no information on a Hobbit movie yet. No one knows if or when it's happening.

Probably the best place to check is TheOneRing.net, by far the most comprehensive source for any LOTR/Hobbit related news. I've been following that website for about 5 years now! It's the best fan-based site on the Web apparently.
