Subject: [OT] Tolkien Movie/Movie Rumor Site
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 1997 17:05:39 -0700
Someone asked for details on the upcoming Lord of the Rings movie. There
is a cool web site that lists rumors for tons of upcoming movies, some
obviously more real than others. It's a valuable resource I thought
people might be interested in:

Anyway, Saul Zaentz owns the movie rights to Tolkien's stuff and Peter
Jackson will be directing. It's in pre-production for filming in New
Zealand. An interesting rumor is that Sean Connery has been contracted
to play Gandalf.

Of course, the interesting casting thread is over on the Rolemaster list,
where they are discussing how to cast a Muppet version.
