Losillë sends along this great entry from the World Without Sundays website. “We played all three nights this weekend. Friday was at the O.R.C. convention which stands for something to do with Lord of the Rings. It was really fun. Thanks to everyone there for the warm welcome. They had a chocolate fountain and rice crispy treats on sticks but the bar closed too early. Those two factors kind of cancel each other out, but the audience was fantastic… really fun people. Sooner or later someone will realize that we, in fact, had nothing to do with Lord of the Rings and the bubble will burst. Until then… still party time.” [More]
(Next year…we’ll keep the bars open MUCH later -Xo)

Apparently fans were camping out outsite the ticket booth (in 20F by the way) waiting for it to open. But worry not! 3 more screenings are planned at the Murray Theatre, check out the Ringers site for more info.

“The Great among these spirits the Elves name the Valar, the Powers of Arda, and Men have often called them gods.” (The Silmarillion) As we continue our discussion of Tolkien’s mammoth history, we turn our thoughts to those most enigmatic and interesting of his creation, the Valar. Servants of Ilúvatar, formers of Middle Earth, of all of Tolkien’s creatures, perhaps none have been more discussed, debated and wondered at. [More]

Samantha writes: Last night I went to see a musical parody of FOTR in a small theater in North Hollywood, CA. It was just hysterical. Really, really well done, and much better than my friend and I were expecting. It has gotten rave reviews by critics and all, and, I think, every night sells out. [More]
