A reporter from the New Zealand Herald got to see an advance screening of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, and has posted — well, it’s not really a review…
The Return of the King is … sorry about this, but we’re not allowed to tell you what we think of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King until next Tuesday.
[…] So we can’t actually say whether it was the single most amazing cinema experience of our recent memory or not. Neither can we say in which bits we may or may not have got more than a little weepy, or whether we were emotionally affected at all. And we certainly couldn’t even hint at which film is clearly the best in Peter Jackson’s trilogy now that we’ve seen all three. We probably need a second look at The Return of the King to decide for sure. Or maybe a third or a fourth…

p>Something tells me they liked it. 
In the meantime, it’s three weeks until LotR:TRotK opens here. Next weekend, I’ll be seeing the Extended Edition of LotR:TFotR at the Cinerama. The next weekend, it’ll be the Extended Edition of LotR:TTT. And finally, the weekend after that, LotR:TRotK.
My precious…

Lord of the Rings III is the geatest movie. it doesn’t happen very often when a screen version of a book is as powerful as the book itself… It’s more than words can say, and it deserves the best awards.
