Cool."},"content":{"rendered":"

At a recent NZ\/UK cricket match, Peter Jackson got the crowd riled up (riled up cricket fans! yeep!) and cranking out sounds for the Battle of Helms Deep <\/a>for the next LotR <\/i>movie. Wow.<\/p>\n

First up Peter Jackson came out and explained that the sound was for the battle at Helms Deep he then asked everyone to stamp their feet up and down like they were marching which in a stadium filled with 25,000 people sounds so cool you could almost see the troops of orcs marching to battle. Next up was some chanting in orc now i’m not an expert in the black language but it went kinda like this Darbgoo Darshshoo,Darbgoo Darshnoo, or somthing like that. Next we had to rhythmicly slap our chests,then they wanted to experiment with sounds and got us to all whisper and then to hum and then we had to growl\/cheer like we were being addressed by the commamders of the army and were getting ready to kick some butt then he thanked us all and said we could look forward to hearing ourselves in the film and left it was a lot of fun and it was amazing the controll he had over a stadium full of boozed up cricket fans and in case you wanted to know New Zealand won the cricket. <\/p>\n

The article also has rumor about the Keen Stuff in the Fellowship <\/i>DVD (an extra thirty minutes of Tolkieny Goodness!), as well as when the Two Towers <\/i>trailer is hitting the theaters.<\/p>\n

I’d like to make an open invitation to Mr. Jackson (or is that Sir Peter?) that if he needs a voice artist to intone the Ring inscription for the trailer again, I will gladly do it. If he’s looking for someone with a different pitch of voice, I’ll have mine surgically altered. If he’s looking for a woman … well, we can negotiate. <\/p>\n
