SW writes: I just spoke to UGC Cinema Group Head Office in UK – ( they had said that they were going to do a trilogy in one or two places). Now distributor has pulled plug on this idea. Spoke to distributor – they said – “no decision” has been made, but probably will not do a trilogy showing until after opening of ROTK. Direct quote from them was “This film has cost us a lot of money and we’re going to do whatever we can to make the most out of it.” When I pointed out that we seemed to be the only country on the planet that seems to be incapable of organising this event reply was “We don’t care what other countries do – we will make our decisions on the basis of what is best for us”
They obviously are totally unaware of the strength of interest in this event. I do believe that this bunch could not organise anything in an alcoholic drink production establishment.
Xoanon here, this is the first I’ve heard of the event NOT taking place…if anyone else has more information (not theories or complaints or petitions…INFO) drop me a line at xoanon@theonering.net
