I filled out their online contact us form and asked them if this was the offical running time or not. I got this reply a few mins ago:
Thank you for your email.
This is the confirmed runnning time for Return of the King.
Kind regards,
Greater Union/Birch Carroll & Coyle
So there you have it! You cant email them directly, you have to fill out the online form thing. This seems pretty concrete to me!
The Greater Union site is “a 50/50 joint venture” with Roadshow Distributors according to their website. So I guess we can hardly get a better confirmation than that. Roadshow are the ones who distribute the prints to the cinemas in Australia!

Initially I called, but after being put on hold for 45 minutes I was disconnected and decided to take a cab over to 66th and Broadway. When I got there at 11:15, there was a winding line of about 50 people standing in a constant rainy drizzle.
At 11:20, a security officer came out from the box office to tell everyone that Saturday’s events were completely sold out _ the only thing still available was “A Conversation with Peter Jackson” on Sunday. When I finally got to the ticket booth I asked how it was possible that the movie viewings were sold out if tickets just went on sale a half-hour ago and there were only 50 people in front of me. He said that Lincoln Center season-ticket holders got first dibs, and they were snatched up ahead of time. Phone-line tie ups and quick box-office sell outs?
This is starting to sound like Trilogy Tuesday all over again. Anyway, I was able to snag a pair of tix to Sunday’s event, so I’m looking forward to that.
