Well... hehehhe, E! has gotten a damn fine LORD OF THE RINGS update up, and... well ol Richard the Lion Hearted here, dropped us the scoop. So, go check it out!
Hi Harry,
I'm not sure if this is old news or new, but I haven't seen this link on AICN before. E! Online is running a Lord of The Rings Special. This month's update includes a report from a reviewer who has seen Sauron on set:
"The Face of Evil: It's one of the most closely debated and frequently asked questions surrounding LOTR: How will Sauron be represented? Will he be a burning Red Eye, as Tolkien describes him, or something else? At last, here's the answer--sort of. We were allowed to "see" Sauron on our last set visit, during a scene from the second age. Sauron, played by a stunt actor, was completely encased in shiny, jagged-steel armor and a ragged, dark blue cape. The armor features a poison-ivy motif. Sauron's helmet, which masks his face completely, is like a sheep's skull with six jagged spikes. Think medieval knight meets kitchen appliance. We can't tell you what Sauron looks like beneath the armor, nor can we tell you what he looks like in the War of the Ring. But we can tell you he's a terrifying presence."
There's also some location reports and interesting bits of on-set gossip. Find it all at:

Keep it up!
