On Saturday (November 16th 2002), the Cinemark Legacy theater in Plano TX had four different Two Towers posters hanging from the ceiling in its lobby. A couple of the posters had hand-drawn signs promoting advance ticket sales attached.

All staff members were wearing red Two Towers T-shirts. The back had the address for the movie fan club, www.lotrfanclub.com.

I don’t suppose you’ve heard whether a digital print of TTT will be released. The Legacy, I’ve heard, was the first theater in the country to get a DLP projector (it’s about a mile from Texas Instruments).

Where once was light, now darkness falls.
Where once was love, love is no more.
Don’t say goodbye.
Don’t say I didn’t try.

These tears we cry,
are falling rain
For all the lies you told us,
the hurt, the blame.
And we will wait
to be so alone.
We are lost,
We can never go home.

So in the end,
I’ll be what I will be,
No loyal friend,
was ever there for me.
Now we say goodbye,
we say you didn’t try.

These tears you cry,
have come too late.
Take back the lies,
the hurt, the blame.
And you will wake
when you face the end alone.
You are lost,
you can never go home.

You are lost,
