Is this the NEW LOTR Poster? Or is it a load of old pipe weed?
 Hmmm..... Hmmmm..... What can be said about this then? Well at first glance it looks, looks, well kinda dull doesn't it? I mean this poster is based on the 1998 conceptual art that was used to inspire the film's construction. And you can't feel a little dissapointed with the end result. I mean in one sence it doesn't scream Hollywood success. That from the Tolkien fans POV is a good thing i guess. But, for your joe public, the audience that New-Line are targeting, it doesn't look like it's the blockbuster film it was set out to be. If I saw this poster in the cinema it wouldn't really inspire me to go see it. That is if I knew nothing about LOTR already. If this is indeed the LOTR poster we'll be seeing in December, I'll eat my hat. Come on New-Line, you can do better! :)

Jackson goes Balistic with a chainsaw in NZ
 Yup that's right. PJ is at it again. After a break of hmmm... 14 years, he's back to his old tricks with the chainsaw ;p
The theatre, built in 1924, is being overhauled to restore it to its original glory ahead of the New Zealand release of Rings. The $700,000 project is being funded through an interest-free loan from the Wellington City Council. The theatre is calling on members of the public to help with the restoration by providing images or photographs of the cinema in its early days to help with the renovations. Pictures of the entrance, the ticket box and downstairs and upstairs lobbies are most urgently needed. The theatre will be closed till August 9 while some of the major restructuring takes place, but will be open as normal after that, though the job will not be completed till early December. The first part of the Rings trilogy is set to show in Wellington just before Christmas. In Bad Taste, Jackson played an eccentric Beatles fan who helped defeat an invasion of aliens wanting to use humans as meat for an inter-galactic chain of fast food outlets. The film ended with him stowing away on their space craft, and destroying the head alien with a chainsaw.

Bad Taste.... But in Another Sense
Okay... Now I know this isn't PJ related, but I feel so drawn to write an article about it on TBHL so you can all hear about it. Last night on Channel four (in the uk) they screened a Brass Eye Special, which for all those people who don't know is a hard hitting, satirical, current affairs show. And what I saw for the 35 minutes it was on, was one of the greatest piece of television ever put on screen. What it has achieved is amazing, it took an issue that is so resident in the uk, if not the world, and shown all sides to it. How the media blow issues up out of proportion, and how it manipulates the public. Now I'm not going to tell you what the issue is, jesus I can't even spell it correctly! But if you have the bandwidth, and the time..... you HAVE to download this programme, not only am I ordering you to.... I'm making sure you do, your IP is already tapped ;p Brass Eye Special Part ONE 42.1mb
