Nothing excites fans more than video footage, and One News brings a few unique moments to Lord of the Rings movie news coverage with their online video clips. They don't disappoint this weekend.

Since the New Zealand news media is going nuts over Peter Jackson's first news conference since principal photography began on "The Lord of the Rings", (and all the fan sites are eating up the news reports), we thought we'd take a look at what One News might have put up.

We weren't disappointed. Although barely the length of the famous Internet preview, the video clip contains a few shots and comments not reported elsewhere (that we've seen, so far).

The clip covers Jackson, Sir Ian McKellen, John Rhys-Davies, and Elijah Wood talking, and includes the quotations we've read and a couple of other remarks.
