We're you there on Tuesday the 17th?
Because I visited that day, and I had a wonderful, spectacular time
I came from Washington State, and planned an entire trip to Boston, just so I could see it. I would have not missed it for the world.
It was so wonderful. The costumes and the armor were amazing. I kept going over to Galadriel's costume just because it was so beautiful and glittery. I also loved the weapons, and of course the jewlery, and just getting to see everything up close. The Ringwraith was like the ultimate halloween costume, and the Boromir "dummy" (I don't know what to call it) was so realistic you could have sworn that it was real. I also thought the drawings by Alan Lee and others were quite cool.
I would very much encourage anyone near or far from the Boston area to try to make it to this exhibit. It is very amazing.
