Hilarious TBS Promos For The Lord Of The Rings

These cracked me up, particularly the one entitled "Frodo":

okay i see them now, these are hilarious. you know what sucks, is that normally if you told a client or anyone you wanted to promote a movie/product this way, then they would say you're crazy, but now look at this style fly. I had funny ideas for commmericals when I was in the advertising program at UT in austin, and people were like, that's not right or appropriate! Now, all the best commercials/promos are subversivly funny.

And White Horse came before Erotic City!

I think these movies will age badly, even worse than the Matrix series... because of the guadiness and melodramatic aspects of their style. but there are brilliantly realized sections that are deeply moving from the sheer spectacle of it, like the end of the first one as you mentioned.
