I have received my confirmation number and instructions on how to pick up the tickets at the theatre box office. I also checked around for the other theatres across the country and it looks like they are all activated for purchase. Good luck!!”
We had heard that Famous Players tickets would be on sale by 10/31, but not other chains. You all might like to check with your local Trilogy theater.
UPDATE: Demandred writes: The ad for Trilogy Tuesday showing on the front of the Famous Players website actually states that tickets are not on sale until Oct. 31, so its kinda funny. If you click into the ad and keep going you’ll get to the point you can purchase tickets. [Famous Players Cinemas]

Hector writes: I was one of the thousands that bombarded you with e-mails saying “What about Canada??!! So when I saw your posting about the Canadian Trilogy Tuesday List I was needless to say VERY interested. I just wanted to add that in today’s copy of the “Metro” newspaper (a small newspaper handed out free to commuters in the Toronto area) had a small blurb and said that tickets go on sale tommorrow, October 31!!!

Next week the original painting for the cover to the 1982 edition of The Lord of the Rings goes on sale for the first time. The artist, Roger Garland, who contributed more than 40 paintings for the book between 1982 and 1985, has never before been convinced of the financial merits of selling these particular paintings, and admits he has no idea how to price them. To this end he is only selling one painting to “test the market” as he puts it, although there will be some rough sketches on sale as well. “To be honest, I’ve always struggled to find a market for my work,” he says.
