I live in New Zealand, the first film of Lord of the rings was filmed 2 mins from my house, and the river scenes were filmed behind my house.
Rivendell is at a Camping ground around 15-20 mins drive from my house, Kaitoke is the name of the camping ground.
I think me and Peroxide are going up to Matamata in like a week or two, which is The Shire
so ^_^.
Also I have a Lord of the Rings banner from the premiere, they hung them on the lamp posts here during the premiere and my sister stole one, anyone want to buy it
?
