When are you planning to see TTT?
Just curious when everyone is planning to see TTT? Are we all racing out on Wednesday so that the Downs will be deserted that day?<P>I am going to try for Wednesday afternoon on my own so I can concentrate on what's going on, and then go back Saturday night with my family and friends.<P>sharon

I will be going at 3:45 (EST) tomorrow! I bought my tickets for it back in late Nov. It is my sisters Christmas present. Of course it is mine, too! I have been dying to tell her! And hating the wait. She's still in school, so I made plans to have my mom take her out of school at around 11 am, and I will take her back to my house and we are going to watch the Extended DVD of the FOTR, and by that time, it should almost be time to go!!! <B>I can't wait!</B>

I broke down and bought a ticket to the midnight show at a theatre two minutes from where I work. Since I get off work at 11:30pm, I'm going straight to the theatre from there. <P>I couldn't help myself! Most of my friends and relations wanted to wait until after the holidays. (You know how us old folk are about standing in lines). <P>But since most of the line parties are going to be at the "cooler theatres" downtown or on campus, I may have the "boring" suburban multiplex to myself tonight. (The West Side of Columbus is known more for its Buckeye and NASCAR fans, not people who dress up like Elves and hobbits. )

Monday, 11 am. <BR>What's a line party? It can't be as simple as it sounds (a party while standing in line).

Don't worry, I will be here tommorow, I don't have my full liscence yet, and I am not going to walk what takes 45 min in the car. Oh well, you folks will just have to spoil it for me ASAP!

Line Party = party while in line.<BR>It is as simple as it sounds.<P>It is something that was started by TheOneRing.net... and now there are tons of them worldwide! I am the administrator for the Chicago Line... which basically means that I had to put together the whole bloody thing (contest, prizes, games... etc.). I hope that it turns out OK, because if people are bored it becomes my fault <BR>It's a little frightening.<BR>It should be fun.<BR>If you want to know more about Line Parties and find out if there is one in your area, go to <A HREF="http://www.theonering.net" TARGET=_blank>www.theonering.net</A> ("movies" -> "Line Party"). We also have events that don't involve just seeing the movie. We find other ways to hang out. It's a lot of fun... I recommend it to everyone! I have met many great people through mine.

I'm going to see TTT at 3:45, friday afternoon, with a few of my friends, for my BIRTHDAY!! YEAH!! I can't wait!!<P>Everyday a friend of mine, who goes to my school, and I, when we walk past each other in the halls, say to one another, "Only 4 more days till TTT!!", or, like today, " Only THREE MORE DAYS TILL WE SEE TTT!!!!!!!!" <P>I am so excited!! Not only is my birthday on Saturday, but I also get a huge present, to see my favorite movie in the whole wide world the day before my birthday. TTT!! <P>Oh, how I love those three little words.... THE TWO TOWERS!!!!<P>I know that I am getting carried away, but I am REALLY getting excited now!! WE already bought the tickets, and I keep seeing commercials for TTT on the t.v. Those drive me insane!! I love them, but they fuel my impatienceness to see TTT!! The other day on one of those commercials I saw..guess what...a NAZGUL!! I got SO excited. I was nearly bouncing off the walls!!<P>I want to see TTT SO badly!! I just can't wait till I get to see it!! <P>Until then...I will think about TTT every moment of the day...I will daydream about TTT...I will watch t.v. JUST to see previews of TTT....AND I will dream of TTT. <P>Goodbye, my fellow Downers!! I hope that you all are excited about TTT as much as I am!!

Me and two friends of mine are going to school tomorrow, and then we are getting picked up by my friend's dad to go see the one oclock showing. Which is cool, because to get there early enough, we get out of school at 11:30. So, we will not only miss all the boring classes at school, but we will also not have to eat the trash they give us for school "lunches" (I don't think they can be scientifically proven to be food ). So, It's all good. <P> <P>Aylwen

I'm going tomorrow (Wed.) at 3pm. I would go to a midnight one but I have semesteer exams. I try not to think about it a lot so its a big excitement when I tear off the farside comic for my off-the-wall calander and see 'TTT' in big black bold letters. But the excitement will build throughout the day when I'm taking my exams. I just hope that I don't start writing about TTT on my english exam. Well, I hope everyone else is holding out as well as me.

I am going to see it after the initial rush by fanatics and teenyboppers is done. Matinee. Cheaper. Less crowded.

Unexpectedly, I was invited by someone I could not refuse to go this evening. I had not planned on watching it, if at all, until it came out on video, but the best laid plans...<P>A stream of invective directed at Hollywood and dislikeable, mindlessly violent blockbusters can be reached at my email later tonight...<P>

Originally, I was planning to go on Wednesday, but I was too busy, so I hope to go on Friday. If not, it'll be Sat. It's such a busy time of year.
