The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
The Eye

Ah, well spotted Maika. The Update was not there when I posted before. Well, that's a relief. I didn't like the look of that lead figure.<P>I believe that the picture posted by dancing spawn, which has been around for some time, does show Shelob - well, some of her legs at least. It is pretty indistinct and that's the way that I hope she stays until the film is released.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> More of a Tarentula lookalike creature than a daddy long legs. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I absolutely agree, samrohan. I believe that Jackson, or one of the production team, mentioned in an interview that she would be modelled on an Australian funnel-web spider (a nasty critter indeed). It was mentioned on a thread here some time ago and someone posted a picture (of a funnel-web spider that is, not Shelob). I think that it was on one of the Spoiler threads ...
