castaliaHas anyone else seen the trailer to a fan-made film called "The Hunt for Gollum" that's supposed to be a sort of "missing scene" for LOTR?
According to an article at the BBC, it was filmed in North Wales (gorgeous choice, IMO) and other areas of the UK on a budget of only 3,000 pounds. And it looks way more impressive than most fan films I've seen. They've got the look of the trilogy, for sure.
It's supposed to be available online this month, presumably for free since they were told by New Line that they had to be non-profit. I'm looking forward to it. They hired real, trained actors, and it looks like it'll be good. Interesting, at least.
ETA: The movie is actually up already! Watch it here
