Wellington, New Zealand World Premier

Submitted by Jen G. (aka Magpie Jen or Laughing-Magpie), Raj and Emma, Canada

A sampling of photos from the red carpet and the midnight showing at the Embassy Theater in Wellington, New Zealand. There were only a handful in costume, so we seemed to generate some attention – we were asked several times if we were in the movie or somehow officially part of the festivities J. TV crews also seemed rather interested in a group of Canadians in costume at a premiere half-way across the globe... hmm, they seemed to think we were really big fans or something J.

A huge Gollum was unveiled on top of the theatre with fireworks and confetti set off to celebrate him. A set of Emyn Muil/Morder-like rocks and scrub was put up in front of the theater entrance for the cast and crew to enter through. A tremendous opening for a fabulous movie!
