Walsingham Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 It wouldn't be Middle Earth if it wasn't filmed in NZ. The unique landscape of NZ brought LotR/Middle Earth to life. Excuse me, but 1) The Shire is - as Bill Hicks definitively stated - England. 2) In what way is Mordor or the enormous chain of the Misty Mountains, or the sunbaked land of the Southrons or still vastness Mirkwood, the small island state of New Zealand? Having said that, I don't know very much at all about this issue. I just think that a Hollywood studio is bilking a union. "It wasn't lies.

Sounds like you need to go to New Zealand some day...

Zoraptor Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 We have 100 metre sand dunes up by 90 mile beach. Only about two of them, and they are right next to the sea so it would be rather... limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
