There is a new picture posted at
Ain't It Cool News of pre-production art from
ROTK depicting Minas Morgul, for anyone interested. Probably in the finished movie it'll look different, 'cause the picture's pretty sketchy, but... *shrugs*
In unrelated news - what I heard on the radio, re: Sean Connery at the Oscars - "It's gotten to the point that even Sean Connery is mimicking his own accent..." Heh. It was amusing at the time. :)
[added 3/31/03, 10:29 PM] By the way, did you guys know that Sean Connery was up for (or was considered for) the part of Gandalf? Heeeheeee...."Shauron'sh forchesh have begun their attack...thish ish but a tashte of the terror that Sharuman will unleash...you musht fight!" Heehe. Oh, I make fun, but he's a pretty cool guy. ;)

And also, the latest in
Prisoner of Azkaban (Azkaban...how cool is
that word?) news is that the actor who plays the Slytherin quidditch captain has not been approached to reprise his role in the third movie (the Gryffindor quidditch captain won't be in it, either), which really doesn't bode well for likeliness of there being quidditch in the movie. I don't know; at this point, nothing's been
really confirmed yet, and I don't think they'd really cut quidditch out entirely...would they? Let's hope not. It's not so much the quidditch itself that I'm worried about, but there are a few things that are quidditch-related that happen in the 3rd book that would be a shame to cut from the film...well, we'll see. *shrugs* Not like it really matters, I'll go see it anyway...
