Well, I could say stuff that would get me banned but I chose not to. Congrats all round Ben, how much did it cost you?

Well, you've blown it. I thought you had the sense to surprise everyone with your report at the trail on the 15th, but apparently not (can't ya see I'm jelious?)

The New York tickets are being offered for $125 on a first-come, first-served basis off the official Web site for a limited time.
I will NOT be attending either of the premiers. |

Bacchus is right. I have no clue what MM is saying. There is only one lotr premier in NY (other two are in London and Calf. I think), so what do you mean by you will not be attending either? Are you talking about the same thing? Selling tickets for $125 on the website?? You have to get invited...plus Bacchus is right and they are $250. So what are you talking about Michael Martinez? Maybe give us a link or something... Ben isn't going to the cast party, they sold out of those tickets.

And, trust me. They put the tickets up for sale at $125 on the official movie Web site earlier today. The offer was, as best I could tell, for a limited time (while supplies last!) but open to anyone. The announcement came through a New Line newsletter (not private email, although I had received private notification earlier in the week).
Here is the link: http://www.lordoftherings.net/index_events.html I make no guarantees about the availability of the offer at any time. This is New Line's deal. |
