'The second film splits into multiple stories and we can follow different charates as the stories intensifies and the stakjes go up'- PJ
I am actually pleased at this- it should make it all the easier to do a purist edit if he keeps all the stores seperate.
Mirkwood drawings look good. Hope they dont screw it up with the colouring and lighting though like Rivendell was screwed and I hope for once Pj doesnt shy away from making it actually dark and gloomy. His idea of dark in Mordor was like a Scottish summers day.

kinda agree with you petty. also, seperate storylines may also "feed" the story, i mean, there isn't so much you can fill the second movie with.

well, i like it, i just have other reasons 
but yeah, mirkwood should be dark, but not so dark you can't see anything, it must look like a forest, an enchanted forest and mystical and all, and not a cave

Did he say "Ssssccccchhhhhhhhmaug" ?
He couldnt really answer Stephen's question, Why yap on about a bloody mug? Digressing there. And "stealing"? Oh yeah, Id say stealing seemed apt. I think the questions were easily picked out so as not to embarrass PJ, he didnt give THAT much away? Mirkwood looks good on paper but on film is another kettle of fish, (easy frank) Fingers crossed !

Yeah. Basically the contrast between the two pictures; it's dark and all the food's gone.

I actually can see the sense in mocapping him, sort of, Im not sure how much the animators will really be able to translate- and that will be interesting to see in the dvd extras, but I can see how it might let the actor express the character with a freedom just standing in a booth with headphones on talkng into a mic might not.
