Turbine is stepping it up with their newest Lord of the Rings Online: Siege of Mirkwood trailer, Lieutenant of Dol Guldur. The voice acting, editing, music, creatures and setting are all enthralling to a degree that goes beyond our standard expectations. We've no doubt this one will get people's blood pumping, and in a good way. Seriously, this is the kind of stuff you expect when a company adopts an important IP -- especially where the voice acting is concerned.

We can't wait to see what the future holds for Turbine trailers, especially considering the locales of Middle-earth the game has yet to expand into its world. Rohan? Helm's Deep? Minas Tirith? Osgiliath? Thinking of trailers for all these places makes us tingle with anticipation.

Check out the trailer after the cut.

Cinemassively: The Search

It isn't often that I come across quality movies from Lord of the Rings Online. No offense to the players of this MMORPG, but so far, I've only found movies of characters playing their musical instruments. While The Search isn't perfect, I applaud ulfalhad's effort to break the mold.

Part one of the story begins within the walls of Minas Tirith. The hero, a brave warrior doomed by the war, goes on a journey for love. As his lady patiently waits, not sure of when he's coming home, he forges on. In part two, he looks back once more on his trek through dangerous lands. I hope to see more of his adventures in the future!

You can check out part two after the jump ...
