New Trailer For The Two Towers
Drakkar writes "As most of you know, the new trailer for the Two Towers was online last night for AOL users, but the link was given on the official site, LordofTheRings.net. It's in real player format. A new trailer with higher quality will be up tonight, midnight ET.
This new piece of film is awesome. (the song at the end of the trailer isn't from the TTT soundtrack, it's from the movie Requiem for a Dream)" xTK-421x points to more links: "Now available is the new 3 minute trailer for Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Available here in MOV and here in RM. Reported first at Aint It Cool News."
this is gonna suck ass
that MOV link from AOL came in at 400 Kbps. fastest download from a slashdot-linked site, ever?
MORTAR COMBAT!
considering that the full-length film of "return of the king" can now be downloaded.
If you just can't stand not knowing what's coming up in the next movie, rumor has it the 2nd book (and even the 3rd and final book) are out now! ;c)
And what kind of horsepower do you need to pull two towers anyway?
Seems like it would just be easier to just screw the trailer and leave the towers in the same spot.

What the hell is going on here? I was actually able to go to the link and actually see the content of the article. Hell I was even able to see the trailer.

Seriously. I'm amazed at the excitement generated by an advertisement. Hey Look! Nike has a new commercial out, it is SO awesome!
Deserves excitment! I daresay this trailer does. Many that are geeks deserve excitement. And some that are sarcastic deserve being treated as a naysayer. Can you not give it a rest? Do not be too eager to deal out sarcasm in judgment. For even the very wise sometimes cannot "get it."

Actually, in the end of Return of the King, they actually return to their jobs as hemp farmers and Pippin does not, in fact, become Thain.

No, they both die together at Helms deep, shortly after the orc eating scene above.

Actually, they cancelled the Arwen - Aragorn marriage and are replacing it with a Frodo - Samwise "domestic partnership agreement".

Hope that clears some things up. Hope there weren't any real bad spoilers for you.

Go to the bookstore. Buy the book "The Two Towers". Turn all the lights in your computer room to off. Turn the brightness on your monitor way up and make sure energy saving features and screen savers are turned off. Turn the book so the text is facing the monitor. RTFB. When you come to a part you want to visualize, stop reading, close your eyes, and pretend.
Elvis is coming back man, Elvis.
No, Elves are coming back!
I'm sure this is just a sign of my own immaturity, but I read "Please, Moorcock, please!" and just about collapsed in a fit of laughter :)
I'd suggest you don't use Slashdot as your only news source, or you will suffer permanent brain damage.
They'll just use the money you spend on this movie to try to take away computers.
I'll happily donate my $7.50 if I can be assured that your computer will be among the first to go.
