POSTED ON 01/15/01

It was bound to happen...

Remember "Star Wars" folks? Well, the first "Lord of the Rings" teaser played in theaters last Friday with copies of "Thirteen Days". New Line Cinema announced that the teaser would not hit the Internet until this Friday...officially, of course.

Well somebody entered the theater with a home video camera, taped the trailer, digitized it, and released it on the Internet so the rest of us could enjoy it.

Even though the quality is a bit mucky, it'll satisfy those of you who can't wait til Friday.
