Lovely Lembas writes: There is a Lord of the Rings movie marathon being held on Saturday the 18th of September at the Astor theatre in Melbourne, Australia. It starts at 12.00pm and costs $15 a ticket for all three films, $12 for the last two films and $10 for the last film. More information can be found at astor-theatre.com. Buying tickets through Ticketek gives you preferred seating but incurs a booking fee. Hoping to see lots of Aussie LOTR fans there to make it a great day!!
