The Hunt For Gollum

[Earl]

Got a spare 40 minutes this afternoon? Fancy watching a Lord of the Rings fan film?

The Hunt For Gollum premieres at 16:00hrs this afternoon, it's a totally non-commercial film created by fans of Lord of the Rings and I must say it looks well worth a watch. Here's the trailer:

What's it about anyway?

Address not found?

[timey]

Yeah, when I clicked the link. It's working now though, and the embedded video is now showing up, which it wasn't before.

[timey]

That looks pretty good.

I just hope my broadband can hold out to make it watchable when it becomes available.

[Earl]

I might download it, that's what I did with Vile Pervert. Streaming videos are a bit of a ballache if they're over a couple of minutes long.

[timey]

Yeah, I might try that.

OT, but I'm "hoping" to get my BB upgraded in June or sometime thereafter, if O2 get my exchange upgraded (it was meant to happen last year. ).

[Earl]

Ours has just been upgraded. It's worse than ever!

[timey]

It'll still be better than mine.

The main thing is I'll get it much cheaper once the upgrade has been done.

I just finished watching it, I thought it was really quite good. The plot is very, very basic and it replaces what was practically one scene that could have been removed from Fellowship of the Ring, just kind of fleshed out.

It's basically what Gandalf and Aragorn were getting up to just prior to the hobbits meeting Aragorn at the Prancing Pony.
