[LotR] Two Towers trailer online

http://www.lordoftheringsmovie.com/#...oTowersTrailer

Note: I haven't successfully downloaded anything yet- the fanboys are clogging everything. I'll keep trying, but be aware that as far as I know, this could be an April Fools gag that didn't get shut down today. Good luck.

Well, even if it isn't an april fools joke, I'll wait until somebody makes a .mp3 of it. Quicktime *SUCKS*.

I hate when the bad fanboys prevent the fun of the good fanboys, myself.

OMG!

This isn't an april fools joke. It is real. The quality isn't great, but the content is there. 3 minutes 30 seconds long of a trailer. And omg, this has me excited

I was all anticipating it being an april fools joke, but it isn't. Hope you all can get at it, I'd post my site but.. my dsl can't handle the hits hehehe

All I have to say is that it's worth the download. Well worth it!

I saw the new material at the end of LOTR in a showing last night (4 minutes of TTT stuff). Does anyone know if this trailer is the same material?

I haven't seen it in theaters, but it sure looks like it's bootlegged from inside a theater. Still worth it to see it all for free! Looks like December can't come fast enough again!

Unfortunately, the full version seems to have taken a powder. The bits I saw of the partial are bloody impressive, though.

If anyone's got a copy of the long one, my work account can handle the bandwidth, and I'd be much obliged.

Try this...it's not much better quality, but it's over 3 minutes long.

A friend of mine said at the LOTR show he saw last night they had a full trailer. He was slavering and dithering like a madman...look what that evil man Jackson has done by making us wait until December... lol

Works fine for me. Try just www.movie-list.com

I know the site is a bit twitchy at times and I'd recommend downloading the trailer as a file as opposed just opening the link.

Can someone with access to the site please ping it for me and post the IP? Maybe there's a DNS problem.

The IP is 65.164.35.17

Wow! It's just like I imagined it. It looks fantastic. No treebeard in this trailer though.

Thanks for the IP! It did the trick, however the actual mirror links still aren't working. Oh well, maybe later tonight it'll be up.

That's what I thought the first time I watched it...look again closely, and at one point (somewhere toward the middle), there's a scene of one of the hobbits climbing a tree. He looks closely at the trunk nearby, and notices it has eyes, much to his dismay. :P

Finally got it after two looong, slow tries late last night (my dial-up connection is a joke due to old wiring). It looks for all the world like someone smuggled a video camera into a movie theatre - poor image quality, muddy sound.

But I love it! 75% more Aragorn. Eowyn is just the way I imagined her. And Theoden's poem, in the word of Keanu...whoa.

The only bad part is that it's only April.

Yeah, I think the trailer's whole: you just can't see jack squat. Hard to see Treebeard, hard to see Gollum when he's climbing that rock (at least you can hear him muttering, so you know it's him.)
