“I own all three box sets of this series and I absolutely love it. The box sets are very awesome looking on my shelves and they come with a lot of cool extras.Definitely recommend to any fans.”
“One of the problems with theatrical releases, is a problem with running lengths demanded by the studios. Things get cut for the sake of running time. The additional time added to an extended edition as value to understanding the film. E.g., between the Steward of Gondor and the elder and younger sons. You get a better understanding of the story line. Following the book doesn't necessarily give you that glimpse of what Director Jackson conveyed on the scream. BTW, Looking at the Hobbit, gives me a better understanding of the LOTR trilogy. What I hate is buying the theatrical cut LOTR trilogy, then studio releases the extended editionDVDs. But I like many others will suffer thru the process. While some say that Two Towers is not so important as Fellowship andReturn of the Kings, it serves a useful purpose of adding meat to the last film RK. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to the Hobbit trilogy.and suffering thru the problem of releasing the short version before the extended edition. I am so happy that Director Jacksonis doing both projects. The continuity issue doesn't exist. BTW, I sometimes have a LOTR night playing all night long. Now I playHobbit first, to set everything up.”
“Love these movies and having a blu ray is essential to me. Unlike many here I already had the DVD and extended and just wanted blu ray. I also like having the theatrical because most times I don't have 3-3.5 hours for an extended.”
“Ich hatte mich darauf gefreut die 30 Minuten die neu hinzugefügt wurden zu sehen. Leider ist es nur die alte Version auf Blu-Ray... Sehr enttäuschent”
“Diese ungeschnittene Version ist noch viel befriedigender als die Kinoversion. Vor allem für jene, die auch das Buch gelesen haben. Die Schauplätze und Charaktere erhalten mehr Tiefe.”
