FOTR: EE @ the cinema

EE = the extended edition
Excuse me while I emote at you. I found out via Honest Trailers that they were releasing the extended editions of the Lord of the Rings movies in the cinema because it’s 25 years (25 years!) since the first film was released. So, of course I checked if this might be happening near me, and it was, though being middle aged now, the thought of seeing all however-many hours of it without a break made me quail (at home you have the natural break of changing discs), but the chance to see it on the big screen was so very tempting. I managed to get a ticket – the auditorium was full, a range of ages and a substantial minority were female.
ANYWAY, it was worth it, ( tl;dr )
