man it must be so nostalgic getting back on that suit to play Gollum again, probably for all the returning cast.

It's been almost 8 years since Return of the King. I imagine Gollum will look even better.

@ Ror

That's rich, the guy so dumb he can't spell calling me an imbecile! Don't they have "Hooked on Phonics" in Europe? Or did that go the way of the Dodo bird, and dental hygiene?

I thought you were better than me? Are you, the guy on the high moral ground, calling me an imbecile? Because I asked you why you deleted my post? I guess I had that coming! What nerve I had to ask you a question.

Yeah, I can see the difference. You don't like me. That's the ONLY difference. You [frick]in hack, wanna be.

Saoirse Ronan and David Tennant are not cast. In fact it's very bloody unlikely he'll appear at all. with his play starting in a month and a baby on the way.

At least name confirmed cast in your list rather than rumours :)

Nice job plagiarizing theonering.net's exclusive pics with no credit even given to their photographer.

Racer, you are an imbecile and no I don't like you. I thought that would have been painfully obvious by now. I deleted your comment because you're a homophobic piece of shit. So take your dumb shit attempts at Brit stereotyping(I'm Irish by the way) and [frick] right off. I've had enough of your bullshit. All you do is talk shit, insult people and try to be a menace. YOU'RE just a sad little [female dog] that thinks it's cool to be an internet troll get a rise out of people. OR you are actually as nasty and bitter as you pretend to be on here. And you call me a wannabe? Get a grip on reality asshole. NOBODY on this site likes you, nobody wants you here and nobody gives a flying [frick] about your opinions on ANYTHING.

Weaponxcustoms, I linked the site what more do you want? Personal thanks and balloons?

I AM SUPER EXCITED FOR THIS FILM.....ITS A LONG TIMED COMING. AND I CANT GET OVER THE FACT THAT HAD WE BEEN STILL WAITING FOR THE LOTR TRILOGY STILL I KNOW THAT THOSE FILMS COULDNT HAVE BEEN DONE BETTER THAN THEY ALREADY HAVE BEEN SO I HAVE NO FEAR FOR THIS PREQUEL TO THE SERIES.

THE ONLY OTHER THING I WOULD ADD TO MY WISH LIST AS FAR AS PETER JACKSONS INVOLVMENT IN FILM IS IF HE WOULD STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND HELM A JUSTICDE LEAGUE TRILOGY IN THE SAME STYLE THAT HE DID LOTR.

I have just as much right to be here and post comments as you do. Like everyone here does. Don't like me? Too bad, feelings mutual pal. Get used to it, I'm not planning on going anywhere. You make me out to be some malevolent dark force on this site. Well, to quote the Daredevil movie, "I ain't the bad guy kid."

So what gives you the right to speak for everyone else in regard to my worth here? I try to bring some humor and some debate in an open forum. Just because you don't agree with my points of view, or like me for that matter, shouldn't enter into your editing.

I can't help it you think your big shit and delete peoples comments with no real justification. Quit being an asshole. We wouldn't even be corresponding if it weren't for your actions. All I want is to have my posts treated the same as anyone else's. I abide by the rules here.

You delete my post and call me names because I question why. I am posting stuff that is similar to what Teabag and many others post daily. Hell, others post ALOT more profane and risqué comments and images daily as well. But you don't lift a finger to censor them do you? Leee had the same word on his post on the same thread and you didn't touch it. Your a [frick]ing hypocrite and a windbag.

Oh, and real mature going and in and changing my comments with the "melon" line. Shows your level of mentality right there. You delete my post because of the word "cock", and yet you childishly added a comment about me having my dick in a melon to my post. Yeah, no double standard there.

I side with RacerREX... I'm in your corner man. I get the same grief when I make a comment and bytches come out of the woodwork to slam me. Then when I retort, I get deleted or have an e-mail sent warning me of my post and attitude. I'll post a benign comment and several punks on here will slam me. Fine, that's what debate is all about but when you delete or ban someone for their opinions ... then that is HYPOCRISY! I never post offensive gifs or vids on here; just comments defending my position and maybe some off-color humor but that's about it. Ror has his buddies and if you take a swipe at them ...it's open season on you and BAM! you're deleted or reprimanded. THAT'S BULLSHIT... I GUESS THE FIRST AMENDMENT DOESN'T PERTAIN TO A BUNCH OF NERDS,GEEKS,DWEEBS and MISFITS arguing over fictional characters! It's the debates, insults and put-downs that makes this site entertaining. "YOU BASTARD ARE BYTCHES"!

I appreciate your support but I disagree with your over all tone and tactics Bryanferryfan I have seen your posts and they seem to be more aggressive and derogatory than I can condone.
