[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	So ironic that the original trilogy was made against all odds (no big name director, studio had to agree to film three big budget movies at once, no huge stars, and fantasy was not that big in Hollywood at that point), and now the second set of films, despite every reason in the world to make them, keeps finding roadblocks. -----signature----- (none)

Yeah, pretty sad that they keep running into legal issues. Hopefully they can get it resolved soon. -----signature----- (none)

	Well now Del Toro has left the project (no sooner than I commented to someone that if this delay lasts any longer Guillermo is gonna walk) Maybe Jackson will find time to direct it now, but honestly I preferred GDT. Fortunately his design work and contribution to the scripts will apparently be kept. -----signature----- (none)
