Less than one day

in 0 days, 15 hours, 42 minutes, and 43 seconds, , , and will sit down to the most important event of the year, the premiere of “The Two Towers.”

Some here at work have scoffed at my prioritization of the event (fuck them), but these premiere dates will only be happening once in my life. These days are as infrequent ans as important as graduations, weddings, funerals.

Tonight is the midnight show already mentioned (in Fairfield — still tickets available if anyone wants to join us)

So tomorrow I am taking the day off. In the morning I will be cooking a heaping Hobbit (read: English) breakfast for and , then we’re off to the 3:00PM showing in Rohnert Park. joins us after work and we’ll take up the 10:45 showing in Rohnert Park.

So it is three times for TTT. It doesn’t match my 4 vieiwings of FOTR last year, but I did one too many screenings last year anyway. We were falling asleep anyway in one showing.

Tonight, tonight! We’ll be sure to bring a few boxes of tissues. I cannot wait to hear the Entmoot or watch the White Rider leading the charge – I’m excited for Gollum’s characterization, Theoden’s healing, Eowyn’s struggle.

This year really seems to have flown by now. Remembering the long year ahead as it loomed when FOTR ended that first time I saw it last Christmas, It’s hard to realize the wait is near over, and it will be over so (too) soon.

So — everyone go see TTT! Mutiple Times!

  1. I’ll be seeing it Wednesday… so tell me if I need to not drink anything so there’s no fear of needing a bathroom run!

  2. We’ve got our tickets for tomorrow afternoon (being as t’s working too late tonight to make a midnight show). I’m all bouncyhappy with anticipation!

    Then there’s the weekend, and my sisters want to see it when they come up, and making t watch it more than once so he can quit grumbling about what’s been changed, and…

  3. Dave and I are hoping to go tomorrow; we should probably give in and buy our tickets ahead of time via the web at the fancy-schmancy theater near my house, but we’re grumpy at them. (the theater just opened a few weeks ago, and we didn’t realize they have assigned seats until we got there, which resulted in crapalicious Harry Potter seating)

  4. I’m not that impressed by the idea of movie theater assigned seats, but that might be because going to see a movie is rarely a planned event for me — usually it’s sort of a “hey, let’s go to a movie an hour from now” kind of thing, which doesn’t leave much time for pre-purchasing tickets or reserving good seats.

    I can see how they’d be good if you’ve been planning on say, seeing “The Two Towers” for the last six months or so, though.

  5. I was just thinking in general for nice theatre type places. If it is at a googleplex, it seems silly.

    But to have assigned seats for a nice movie you’ve been planning on really appeals to the snob in me.

    none of our seats for TTT are assigned, it’s the line for us.
