I know for sure that there are midnight showings all over Canada, at Famous Players locations at least. In fact, I already have my tickets.
Why skip school? You have school at midnight?

NOOOO! This means I'm stuck in the exact same boat as last year because..."No staying up abnormally late on a school night."
Which means I have to wait 3 whole days! Not fair. Oh well.

Shelob has been moved to the beginning of the ROTK movie. Not sure how they'll end TTT for Frodo and Sam. Perhaps after they leave Faramir and begin their ascent around Minas Morgul?

Likely. Chronologically speaking, they don't even reach Shelob until Gondor is already being thoroughly ravaged... in the book, there's only a two day gap between their parting with Faramir, and Faramir's arrival in Minas Tirith.
A final shot of Frodo, Sam and Gollum at the Cross-roads would not be unlike FOTR's final shot of the descent into the Emyn Muil. In terms of the film's narrative, that would make sense.

Just because it's secret doesn't necessarily mean it's Shelob.
Though I'm wondering if Shelob's appearance will be completely concealed from all marketing materials, just as the Balrog's was...

ee...Shelob...*shudders*
I was absolutely disgusted when I saw the spiders in"Harry Potter." I think I'm arachnophobic...I almost hyperventilated. So Shelob...eek...I'll probably be out refilling my popcorn or else fainted under my seat. And that end to TTT sounds very feasible...but again, kind of dissapointing to everyone who hasn't even read the books. Heehee...suspense and cliffhangers are so lovely when you know what's going on!
