short fat guy online

I missed seeing the new announcement by mere seconds.  I was just at the official site, but it was seconds later at TORN that I saw word the new ROTK trailer had been released, right around 3:30 PM (EDT).

Actually it’s a still from “Night on Bald Mountain”

I can’t see it at the Apple site, since I’m behind a corporate firewall right now, and I can’t get the official site‘s Large version downloaded (since WinZip keeps telling me it’s not a valid archive).  I was able to at least get the Medium version, as shown above.  I just have to wait till tonight when I can go home and download things properly.

While waiting for a hopefully better version to show up at the official site, I’m spending my time watching AOL’s Return of the King trailer offering.

A Nazgul on approach to Minas Tirith Metropolitan Airport

Shelob.  Ick.  I’m already feeling itchy.

At last this image of Arwen, first seen way back in the original online teaser trailer, might finally appear in a movie

It looks like Minas Morgul might be exploding

A Nazgul in the sun?  Or maybe a Luck Dragon who’s lost his way?

    By the way, shortly after accumulating the above screen grabs, I found that TORN has a QuickTime version of the AOL version of the trailer.  Of course the official version, coming out later today, will supersede this, but if you want you can download it here.
