FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING Has Rating and Running Time!!

Hey, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab.

We've been getting letters all day from readers asking us variations on one question:

"The MPAA has rated FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING a PG-13. How can you rate an unfinished movie?"

Easy. The movie's finished. According to sources, there's a locked print that runs 2 hours and 45 minutes, and it was indeed delivered as a PG-13. This was on Tuesday night, and the decision has come down: no test screenings. The film is finished, and they'll show it to an audience when they're good and ready.

Jesus... a finished FELLOWHIP is out there. Locked. Ready to be watched. I think I need to organize a black ops tactical strike. Excuse me. I've got calls to make...

"Moriarty" out.
