    The first part of Lord of the Rings opens in theatres on Wednesday, 12/19/01. I think there would be enough interest among Chicago Force to make an event out of it, but when? Well, when would be good for the most people?

    I will point out now that Saturday, 12/29 is out for me, but I added it because it might be the only day the rest of y'all could make it....

    The question of where will be next, but first I want to figure out when. So get your votes in!

    I plan to see it opening night, and then again that weekend... as for a group outing, I voted for the weekend after New Years because that would avoid potential conflict with any holiday activities. However, any date but the 29th is great for me!

    Oh, I'm gonna see it. But I still don't get the whole Tolkein thing. I can't read those books - they make my head hurt.

    Didn't you say the same thing about Little Golden Books, Jeff?

    hee hee hee!

    Only two votes so far, and both for after the new year starts... so it's looking like this may be our first CF event for 2002. Or not. Who knows?

    We will go to see it when we can, but I think we may be visiting family on that SAturday. We usually go to movies on Saturday, cuz it is the only day all 3 of us have off together. Maybe we will just have to take Mom & Dad and sisters and brothers-in-law to the theater.

    Jeff-skip the prologe! Those made my head hurt too! Just go right to the story and start with the Hobbit first. Don't give up on the first 100 or so pages, it does get very, very exciting and isn't all just about a bunch of dwarves talking and eating and smoking.
    I have read much more than 1/2 way through FotR. I will have finished it before the movie is released. It also has some very descriptive (slower) parts, but I can tell it will get very exciting soon and I will miss my stop on the train again while reading!

    I'm going opening night, and I will join the CF gang for the outing. Count me in. After the hollidays sound like a great idea.

    well, the poll didn't get many responses... I set it to close early in case we got a lot of opening-night or -weekend responses. Heh.

    Should I re-open it for a few days?

    I'm actually leaning towards an opening-weekend event now, perhaps Friday 12/21? If we see it at the Loews @ Streets of Woodfield, we could have dinner beforehand, or a Gameworks session, and then see the movie.
