Don't get too excited yet....

Today is December 28th - the Day of the Holy Innocents in Spanish countries.

This day is analogous to April Fool's Day in the United States.

Due to the differences in the rights of operation and disitribución of this film in domestic video, that vary depending on each country, we were with the paradoxical situation of being first in enjoying this important launching in high resolution. Something that already has happened to other titles although not with as much relevance.

That's why it is called "Babelfish". It does a mediocre job at best of translating.

i considered that it might be a joke, though it just doesn't seem particularly humourous. my spanish friends aren't this poor at humour, so it seems unlikely. scorchio!

I would give this a 50/50 chance that it is fake.

I really have a feeling that we'll know about LOTR well ahead of time, just like we know about Sleeping Beauty and Finding Nemo now.
