A slew of teaser posters for long-awaited flicks have hit the web in the past few days, included the one-sheet for Adaptation, four more character-oriented TTT posters, and this first look at the lovely Monica Bellucci as Persephone in the Matrix sequels. (Notice her head isn’t cut off as in the first six preview posters…as it turns out full versions of each of them can be seen at the official site.)

Foundations of Stone.
With a little more than a month to go (better start boning up now), TTT news is coming fast and furious. The soundtrack listing is out, meaning beaucoup spoilers for how the movie starts and ends (don’t go if you don’t want to know), along with a number of new pics. (My friend on the inside told me Bjork was going to be on the soundtrack, but I suspect he confused her with fellow Icelander Emiliana Torrini.) If you’re getting annoyed with all the LOTR coverage here, by the way…I’m afraid it’s only going to get worse.
My Precioussss….
The official poster for TTT debuts….looks like no love for Merry and Pippen this time, or Eomer, Faramir, Theoden, Treebeard, or Wormtongue, for that matter. Nevertheless, we’ve got less than two months until the big show, and exactly two weeks until the extended Fellowship…it’s a good time to be alive. Update: Are PJ and Sir Ian thinking of The Hobbit?
Oldest Living Thing.
It seems the seal may have broken on TTT news. A day after the new trailer is released (you owe it to yourself to download the full-screen Quicktime version), this pic of Treebeard pops up. Lookin’ good… Update: Hmmm, they seem to have taken it down, but be vewwy vewwy quiet…
A new power is rising.
Treebeard! Gollum! Balrog! Oliphaunt! Wargs! The Two Towers trailer has arrived, and it looks absolutely amazing…It’s a thing of beauty, and the Requiem for a Dream theme fits nicely too. I’m not sure how I feel yet about what PJ’s doing with Elrond (And where are he and Aragorn having this discussion?), but he’s earned my trust thus far. Update: Take it frame-by-frame.
Six Days
until the next TTT trailer. Hopefully I’ll be able to get this on Kazaa that day and not have to resort to scavenging the huge pile of “700 free hours” AOL CD’s in the lobby.
Fishing Expedition.
More spoiler-filled pics from The Two Towers, including the first look at Smeagol and Deagol. We’re getting closer…
No Strength Left in the World of Men.
Since no update would be complete without ’em, we’ve got more Two Towers pics, including all-new shots of Eomer and Faramir. Spoilers for those who haven’t read the trilogy.
Pics for your Precious.
Custom FOTR covers, for your regular edition FOTR DVD. Some of these are quite nice.
The Rings Motherlode.
Elves going west, Bilbo writing, Isildur in trouble, and Gollum on a log(!), and that’s just the Fellowship stuff. TORN.net gets their hands on tons of precious stills from The Two Towers and the extended Fellowship [Spoilers, and, if you’re keeping score, give yourself ten points.]
