Even before this very evening, the hype had begun. Me myself, I queued
for 4 ½ days outside the cinema Palladium. And then there was a month of
nervous speculations, would the movie keep up with our expectations? As the
evening grew nearer, plans were made. Many smaller groups ate dinners, and
watched the FotR, to get "in-character". We decided to walk along the
Avenue, me and my friends: the elf from Mirkwood, a Gondorian, one lonely
Uruk, and a lovely Rohan lady. We were the first in place, and during the
next hours greeted more and more of the lucky ones who got a premier ticket.
There were Arwens, hobbits, elves, Gondorians, Rohirrim and even three
ringwraiths (lucky for us, also two or three Gandalfs and one random Istari).
I even saw a Gollum. There was dancing and singing outside the cinema, and I
understood why I had camped in the queue for so long - the hype and
excitement made the air almost sparkle.
