As you may or may not know, New Line Cinema is allowing select theatres to show all three Lord of the Rings movies back to back on the day Return of the King comes out. Onodrim got screwed over when trying to get tickets for the Chicago showing, but was able to manage to get 2 tickets for the only other Illinois showing in Springfield. She and I planned on going down there to see all three movies and then staying with a friend that night and driving back home the next morning.

However, since almost every theatre showing the trilogy sold out within about 48 hours, there is a huge demand for these tickets on eBay. Granted, Springfield isn't Chicago, but I'm pretty confident we can make at least $100 profit off these two tickets if we were to sell them. Of course, that would also mean we wouldn't get to see the entire trilogy back to back to back on a movie screen.

So, what do you think we should do? Sell them? Or keep them?
