The Noldor, New Zealand: Wellywood T-Shirts
http://nznoldor.blogspot.com/p/zazzle-store.html
The Noldor, New Zealand. Your personal guide to Wellywood's Lord Of The Rings locations (including news about The Hobbit). If you have been to Wellington New Zealand, you may have noticed that there wasn't much in the way of Wellywood souvenirs around. There's a few things for sale at the Weta Cave, but none of it is specific to the Wellington Film Industry. This has always annoyed me a bit, so here are a few of my own designs, created through www.zazzle.com. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Blog by Jack M.

Back in January, we celebrated our Anniversary by visiting the Hobbiton set in Matamata, north of Taupo. I had wanted to show the photos here much earlier, but was unfortunately prevented from doing so by the Non-Disclosure Agreement they made everybody sign there (as you buy your ticket). The road to Hobbiton is (coincidentally! Just check if anyone's in?

I received one more update from my source down south (previous reports here. Apparently while he had some spare time in Te Anau he drove around to one of the lodges, where the Hobbit headquarters were rumoured to be. If anyone knows what "LR" stands for, drop me a line. My contact mentioned that the "hired goon" was fri...

Smials are local groups of The Tolkien Society which meet on a regular or occasional basis, named after the word Tolkien uses for hobbit-homes. You don’t have to be a member of the Society to join a Smial, so get in touch with the contact for your nearest group (or perhaps start your own if there’s not one close to you). To form your own Smial, have a look at his short guide.

The Noldor, New Zealand. Your personal guide to Wellywood's Lord Of The Rings locations (including news about The Hobbit). Saturday, 31 January 2015. Rounding things off. NZ-Noldor is winding down. As you may have noticed, this blog has been pretty inactive in the last few years. I've been concentrating my actions and attention running on the Wellington Tolkien Fellowship, Welly-moot.com. Which has in fact, always worked anyway. I will, in all likelihood, NOT be updating this site after this post (Ha!

The Noldor, New Zealand. Your personal guide to Wellywood's Lord Of The Rings locations (including news about The Hobbit). Thursday, 6 September 2012. In the last few days an article has appeard on the Guardian UK's website from a fellow named James Russell, who asserts that Peter Jackson's creative juices may have dried up, as evidenced by the fact that he's split the book into three parts. I got a call from a local radio station about what I thought about it, and heres the interview:. Links to this post.
