The January 22, 2002 issue of the trade newspaper Daily Variety features a great shot of Christopher Lee in an Oscar consideration ad for LORD OF THE RINGS. Although it's an ad touting Peter Jackson as Best Director, Lee dominates the picture, as he is standing in the middle between Ian McKellan and director Jackson as they stroll on the lawn outside his tower at Isengard - it's the same pic titled "three Wizards in the LOTR companion book.

Also, LOTR's seems poised to get multiple nominations, probably at least ten, as it already is a finalist in the three annouced preliminary categories (of Make-up, Special Effects and Sound Editing).
