The Legion’s more than 75,000 members will demonstrate the true power of fandom through a passionate and fully engaged social media and in-theater grassroots campaign, culminating with hundreds of “Tolkien” fan-led meetups at theaters across the country during the film’s opening weekend. The meetups will eventize “Tolkien” screenings, giving fans of the iconic author a unique community viewing experience featuring an exclusive item related to the film.
