With the release of Lord of the Rings on Blu-Ray in a little more than a month–April 6–the official Lord of the Rings website has finally gotten a much needed facelift after these many years.

Granted, it’s really only just  a couple pages with external links to promote the perpetual LOTR tie-ins, but it’s nice to see a change. If you do click the “Menu” item in the upper right, you’ll see that most of those pages are maked as “Coming Soon”.

Hopefully we’ll see a website for The Hobbit sooner than later… it’s been a LONG time since there’s been any substantial news on that front.
