Have you ever heard of the TV show "Icons Unearthed"? Can't Post


It's an annual special documentary series of 6-8 episodes that spotlight the creation, production, and history of some very popular films/shows... and they do a GREAT job with them! Five of the previous shows pictured above are: The Marvel films; The Simpsons; Fast & Furious; Star Wars; and James Bond. The Marvel series is the only one (SO FAR) that has 8 episodes while the rest have 6 episodes. They had a LOT of stuff to cover ;)


I just saw an advertisement that announced their latest project:




Icons Unearthed: The Lord of the Rings *spasm!* The weekly episodes start on March 20 on VICE (channel) at 10 pm et. A short description of what you'll see: "Cast, crew, and experts will reveal never-before-heard stories about the most iconic film and television series."




Here are some screencaps of the advertisement. They show several people involved with the production. The narrator of this series is Dwalin / Graham McTavish.






Mark Your Calendars!!! This is gonna be fun :D

How can Barrie Osborne and Sarah McLeod look like they've aged 25 years? [In reply to] Can't Post

I still think of them as they look on the DVDs! I'm not sure I'm ready for this...

(I'll have to see if this show is streaming anywhere.)

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Me too! [In reply to] Can't Post

But I like how they pretty-much timed this release at the end of the trilogy's 20 year Anniversary. :)

My daughter found the Star Wars series on the Paramount channel; but none of the other titles were there.
