We're celebrating Father's Day (and the longest day of the year) with a Lord of the Rings marathon. We're showing all three films, extended versions, on 35mm starting at 10am. Advance purchase tickets are available at a slightly higher price to help cover the cost of accepting credit cards.

Showtimes:
Fellowship of the Ring: 10:00am - 1:30pm
The Two Towers: 2:15pm - 6:00pm
The Return of the King: 7:15pm - 10:36pm

Advance online purchase tickets:
Adults: $22 good for all three shows
Children/Members: $16 good for all three shows
(The slightly higher advance ticket prices help cover our credit card costs.)

Actually not quite true, but the first two are extended versions, and the third is the regular theatrical version.

I wish WB would strike a couple of prints of ROTK extended version. I'm sure lots of folks would be interested in running it.

Ah the power of the Ring ! Here in Kansas City, the KC Symphony was presenting a concert of Music from LOTR. Sales were sooo good, they started giving away tickets on any radio station they could find....

"Caller 7 wins tickets to KC Symphony and Music from LOTR !"
( 10 min later ) "Still looking for Caller 7 for those FREE tickets to Music from LOTR !" [bs]

The Colonial is the preferred movie theater of "The Blob". Since we usually celebrate Father's Day on Saturday with a big family picnic I would have gone to this if they had a extended print of ROTK. New Line is really clueless...see my post in "The Afterlife" about LOTR.
