Return Of The King Footage From E3

Arathorn writes "TheOneRing.net has a Quicktime movie up of just over a minute's worth of live footage from Return of The King , as shown at E3. The quality's pretty abysmal, but it gives a much-needed taster of what RoTK's going to look like. The soundtrack (such as it is) is from the final act of The Two Towers." Update: 05/21 18:47 GMT by T : Reader Adam Roben has set up a BitTorrent session as well.

  1. Umm... the game? by Uller-RM · · Score: 4, Informative

    The video is of the Return of the King video game, as shown at E3... not the movie.

    At least, that's what the article seems to imply.

      As the AC said, it shows video clips from the movie.. the last few seconds are from the game. Also, if you're on dialup, I suggest NOT downloading this. It's really poor quality, and it looks as if the guy can't even hold the camera steady (obviously hasn't heard of a tripod).

  2. For the game but has scenes from the movie by noackjr · · Score: 5, Informative

    Subject says it all...

  3. We already know what it would look like by GothChip · · Score: 4, Informative

    All three LOTR films were filmed at the same time so they have a consistent look and feel about them.

    "the King" means he is one of many kings.

    "The King" means he is the one and only king.

    I suppose it could go either way in this context (king of the dwarves, king of the elves, king of the humans), but the fact that "the" is an article doesn't automatically mean it isn't capitalized.
