I've just managed to purloin a couple of tickets (face value £50 each (grand circle G13 & 14) for a total of £64 including postage so almost half price) for the opening preview of Lord Of The Rings on May 9th ...

To say reviews have been mixed is an understatement from these

I guess the point is the critics were always gonna slag it off anyway - and opening it in Canada first always seemed weird..

Anyway - I always ignore critics and fans seem to like it - which are usually good signs to me as i'm easy to please, and i also suspect some tweaking has been done between Toronto and here ... So

nickeyb and I will be there in a couple of weeks ... I'm quite excited in fact ;)
