The Embassy Theatre in Wellington has sent out their latest newsletter. The big news is that they will be screening all three LOTR films this March as part of their summer series (North America’s winter). From the newsletter: Peter Jackson’s Academy Award winning films should only be seen in the luxury of our leather armchairs and on our giant screen.
LORD OF THE RINGS: The Fellowship of the Ring – March 18
LORD OF THE RINGS: The Two Towers – March 4 – March 25
LORD OF THE RINGS: The Return of the King – March 11 – April
TheOneRing.net, TORn Message Board Members, myself and many others actually have our names on a chair in the theatre. I had the pleasure of seeing ‘March of the Penguins’ there last April. Take a look at some of our photos from the trip.

TheHutt writes: During their TotalHD press conference at CES, Warner announced that New Line was working on the Lord of the Rings trilogy for both HD DVD and Blu-ray. While they did confirm that the titles were in the works, no details were given. A source close to the matter gave us a few details of the upcoming release, these include:
- Main feature will be a single DL disc on both HD DVD and Blu-ray. (no word if it will be a TotalHD disc (TotalDVD is a double-sided combination of HD-DVD and Blu-Ray)
- The movies will be the Theatrical Versions of each film.
- Both discs will be encoded using VC1
- These will be the first titles to use Dolby TrueHD 7.1 Audio
- Due to bandwidth constraints, as of now there will be no IME (“In Movie Experience”) like features.

Ron writes: I just wanted to let you all know there will be a marathon screening of all three films at the Music Box Theatre in Chicago, December 28th. It’s a great theater and it should be a lot of fun. I missed out on Trilogy Tuesday (remember that?) way back when, so I’m looking forward to this. Just wanted to give a heads-up to any fellow fans in the Chicago area. [musicboxtheatre.com]
