<font color=skyblue>I want to buy this poster.</font>

I agree Larry. That is cool!

Yeah, that's an awesome picture. I can't wait for December 18th [img]smile.gif[/img]

Since the Two Towers is supposed to be partially based on the battle for Middle Earth (that's what it's called, right?), they should have the two forces on opposite sides at the bottom of the poster. There should be more included in this poster, as it lacks that eye-catching quality.

who be the woman on the right? me no like her!

Why not? i think she is nice lol but anyway it will be great to se this movie! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

She is probably Lady Eowen. Don't know how the actor is.

Just wait and see, you'll love her... [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font color="lightblue">Apophis likes it too- he`s staring right at it :D </font>

That's Miranda Otto, an Australian actress - and I've heard she's very fond of you.

This is a just a poster
There's LotR poster whichj only shows the nazgul
ya can;t say that really repesents the movie now can ya

Nifty! But I wonder why Gollum is never on the posters? He´s a lot cuter than Viggo Mortensen [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img] ...

why is liv tyler there?are they going to give her a part in the up coming movie?her character is not in the the two towers.

The man has a point. What is Arwen Evenstar doing in this flim? I mean, she shows up at the end of Return, and in Fellowship, but I cant recall and appearance in Towers. Either I need to re-read the book (as if I need an excuse) or someones screwing with the plot.

I've got the DVD FEllowship and the Towers preview in it clues you in that the woman on the right is Eowyn (which was, coincidentally, also the name of one of my first girlfriends ages past - how cool were her folks?). As for Arwen, my take on it is you can put Liv Tyler in any movie for any reason and I won't question it at all. And I've felt that way since I first say her in Aerosmith videos.

And, you should check out the DVD's behind-the-scenes stuff on Viggo. Apparently, he is the best swordsman that the LoTR fight-master has ever trained, and the everyone-in-the-cast-agrees vote for hardest worker.

Now, if only they hadn't left out Tom Bombadil.

<font color = aqua> *sigh* Viggo Mortensen, I can't wait. The movie should be good too. ;) </font>

no,arwen was in the fellowship of the ring.but it was a small part.and her part in the return of the king was just as small.i guess they figured they couldn't get women to see it if there was only one major female character(eowyn).

Oh puh-lease!! I won't deny that even I think Liv Tyler looks fantastic on that pic, I mean, woooow.... [img]graemlins/1drool.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img] *cough* Anyway I was saying, you have got to be kidding! I don't think it's the *women* they are trying to lure by putting Arwen in that movie... [img]graemlins/dontknowaboutyou.gif[/img]

For once, I agree with the mighty Melusine. ;) I love Liv Tyler's face, and Eowyn is my favorite character in the book. I have always, (well, since 1970 or thereabouts), thought that JRRT should have put more Arwyn Evenstar in the book.

Larry I'm gonna get that poster in my bedroom too. We can be poster buddies. :D

<font color=skyblue>This is not the official poster, nor is it the only one that exists...it is just my favorite. I would tell you why Arwen is in the second movie, but I do not want to give out spoilers...let it suffice to say that Tolkien briefly mentioned some background items that were in effect, and even Gimli picked up on how the Gray Riders knew that Aragorn needed their help in the ensuing battle that is to take place in the third movie, but he never explained exactly how the Gray Riders were told to go help...though it is hinted at...

I can say no more...plus, I am nearing the edge of getting this thread moved to the book/movie forum. I only wanted to show off a very lovely picture. ;) </font>

I dunno Mel, I'm inclined to agree a little with khazadman on this one. Not so much about making Arwen a bigger part but in really making the hard sell when it comes to the Arwen-Aragorn love story in order to get lovestory fans who wouldn't otherwise pay full box-office prices to see the film to shell out their bucks to go and see it in the cinema. It's a pretty sound business move on the part of the producers and doesn't negatively affect the story in any way (the love story is a real part of the books anyway), so I don't blame them at all.

Miranda Otto also appeared in a film called The Well. That's if you want to do any...er...research into her.

There is also a Two Towers poster showing the two towers themselves, one tower very close up, the other in the distance, with Sauron's forces swarming underneath. I have that hanging up in my room, as well as the poster from The Fellowship of the Ring.

I like Larry's pic, (Liv Tyler looks gorgeous), but I think it's abit white.

Sorry Mel I have to disagree. You know how you ladies insist on a bit of 'love interest' in your films. ;)

Ah, sod off you ;) :D
You know very well that the only thing I demand from a movie is good subtitles! ;)

Oh and Hierophant, I'm not saying there isn't a certain type of woman [img]tongue.gif[/img] who needs a love story, but take it from me as a woman (there's an argument you can't get past :D ) that this is NOT the case for most of us - just give me the LOTR story! And again, honestly, I don't think Liv Tyler is there to attract women, pretty as she may be. Every guy I know drooled over her in the first movie, while the women seem to prefer Orlando Bloom (Legolas) and Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn) ;)
