interviews

Check out my podcast interview regarding my new book Middle-earth Lore Tolkiens Legends Revealed with Christian Nerds Unite Host Ricky Pope

This thread should be for collecting and discussing Tolkien's interviews. To start with, I found a collection of filmed interviews on Youtube:

French interview with John Howe about his work on the series What did your work consist of? Imagining the world in which we would evolve. I mainly worked on the settings. We would start by discussing a subject, I would go off and make a series of sketches, and then we would have a long...

Someone posted this video on Reddit. I haven't watched it yet but figured I'd be interesting to others here as well 😊

This may have been posted before but I found this interview from 1967 and thought I'd share. Link

And has a fanboy moment:

Hey, I don't know if anyone here speaks French, but if you do, you should read this article: http://www.lemonde.fr/culture/article/2012/07/05/tolkien-l-anneau-de-la-discorde_1729858_3246.html It's quite interesting. I'm not sure if it is translated into English anywhere out there. It was...

After 40 years of media silence, Christopher Tolkien speaks about the films and their effect on his father's legacy to the world. This is the English translation of an interview given in French to Raphaëlle Rérolle of LE MONDE. The original French text is linked at the end of the article...

It's Charlie Rose interviewing the three Mexican dirctors (Alfonso Cuaron, Guillermo del Toro, and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu) It's almost as hour long, but well worth watching. It, for me, gave me a real look at...

Anyone like the idea of having a thread where we can post links to any interviews with Del Toro that will be happening between now and the film's release? May 1st Del Toro interview with TORN (originally posted by Barliman) April 2nd - GDT with EW (Posted by Firawyn) April 28th - GDT talks...

Maybe someone's long beaten me to the punch on this one . . . but I've come across an interview with the writer of a 1993 treatment for a motion picture adaptation of LOTR (which obviously was never made). The treatment itself is unavailable as far as I know. But have a look at who they were...

Hollywood Jesus interview Did Peter Jackson actually read the book?

I stumbled across this nine minute radio interview of JRRT whilst doing a search. I would warn you that I then spent about an hour downloading the software from another site (linked) to listen to it , but if you're keen enough, you can find it HERE So, the Elves aren't immortal after all...

Just saw an interview with Liv Tyler on Norwegian TV this weekend. There she said something about her Arwen part that I found interesting. She was not comfortable with the first scripts of Arwen, because it went too far away from the book. She supposedly argued this with PJ and the other...
