Just to clarify any possible misconceptions which readers here might construe, I said with such short notice I was unable to attend the screenings given other commitments this week. I declined the suggestion to attend but I didn't dismiss or refute the idea of seeing the Ring Cycle films.

I think it's quite an interesting avenue to explore, particularly since Tolkien believed that drama ought to be seen on the stage and not simply read. Given he and Priscilla attended the opera in Florence, one might assume he felt that opera should also be seen and heard rather than read. And this is just such an opportunity.
