Big News Can't Post

But we don't know what is:

Guys we just verified one of the things and tomorrow is going to be a huge show. Tune in live 5pm PT / 8pm ET.


That would be the TORn Tuesday livestream on YouTube and I think Periscope. Cliff Broadway says it's a big scoop, and it's going to be huge. I'm taking that with a grain of salt, but I thought people here might appreciate a little advance notice in case they want to watch the big reveal (or the final destruction of TORn's reputation, whichever the case may be) in real time.

Assumptions [In reply to] Can't Post

Of course, I am assuming this "big scoop" is related to the Amazon series and not, say, an upcoming game, or the 4K ultimate collector's edition release of the films, or something like that.

Speculation [In reply to] Can't Post

No problem.

It occurs to me that it might be helpful to provide a little bit of speculation for those who haven't been following TORn Tuesday in the past few weeks. It seems that TORn received something more than just a tidbit. I believe it was an actual photograph of something related to production (and more than just the distant glimpses of sets we've seen before). However, they only received it from a single source, and could not verify that it was specifically related to the Amazon series. They were waiting for confirmation from another source before going forward with it. My speculation is that this is what the news is about.

I'm not sure that I'll be able to make it live, but I'll try to watch it on YouTube shortly thereafter. If someone is able to watch it live, and I'm right about it being a photograph, it might be prudent to take a few screenshots during the livestream, or even record your desktop, so you have your own copy to refer to in case something happens to the original.

.. the final destruction of TORn's reputation


I think everyone will be very pleasantly surprised, and our 'reputation' will remain intact. Smile

Guarded optimism [In reply to] Can't Post

Just a jocular disclaimer. TORn has been known in the past for being the go-to site to find out details about the production of the LOTR and Hobbit films. Since the Amazon deal, TORn hasn't had as much success getting reliable information on production. I'm looking forward to whatever bit of news has landed in TORn's lap, but not being privy to what TORn has seen myself, I can't vouch for it just yet.
