Hi I am new here but I wanted to ask one question since there is a super extended lord of the rings trilogy that has not been released yet and each of the films would be five or six hours longer.
My question I was asking is there a more scenes and hours that never made it to the extended...
So there are approximatly 20 minutes of footage that has never been released say for small snippets in trailers and video game cutscenes and refferences in other supplimentary material. I just really want to see it and would be happy if anybody has any knews about a potential releases of it all.
This is something that has stumped me for a while, so I'm curious if anyone here might know...
On the Fellowship Extended Edition DVD case (inside the Slipcase), there is what appears to be an elven heraldic device. I have not been able to find anything that says what it represents. It's...
Has anybody seen it yet? I just received it in the mail a few days ago. I'm doing The Hobbit with my grade 7s and I decided to watch it fresh with them for the first time.
The only thing I hope for is....PLEASE let there be more of Beorn in the battle! I was SO disappointed to see about 5...
Firstly, I was a bit annoyed that download purchasers got to watch the film a good two weeks before my DVD copy was available; but I'm over that now.
I don't want to give too much away, for those who haven't watched it yet; but I think that the extended edition is a better watch than the...
So I've had the blu-ray of The Hobbit Extended Edition sitting on my shelf for a few months because I couldn't get myself to watch this movie again. I've already posted my review in the other thread I think, but wanted to write something about the Extended Edition. I watched it last night and...
I think you lose a lot if you dont watch the extended cut of "the fellowship", because some majour aspect themes were included, and some vital scenes too - like the gift-giving in Lorien, and many other little bits that they had to cut, because the movie was too long. i always watch the...
A Special Report from the Outside World
Peter Jackson confirms Return of the King Extended Edition running time
by David Haber, Wizard News Editor
In an appearance at a screening of Fellowship of the Ring at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood last night, Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson...
I am guessing a confrontation between Gandalf and the Witch King - because there is a scene of that in the Theatrical DVD ROTK Preview that was not in the movie.
Obviously the Saruman resolution scene.
Possibly another scene with Eomer on the battlefield crying and holding a fallen comrade...
I read at thelordoftherings.net that the tickets for the extended edition of Two Towers go on sale today. However, I tried to purchase them through Fandango but wasn't able to. If anyone knows where I can buy the tickets on-line please let me know. Thanks.
From an article on theonering.net:
USA TODAY got an early preview in Wellington, New Zealand, last week at director Peter Jackson's private screening room. Though a two-DVD set with the original three-hour Towers arrives on shelves Aug. 26, Rings completists will find plenty of fresh...
Found this little tidbit..
The Two Towers Extended Edition
We explore the trailers for The Two Towers to speculate what the Extended Edition may hold.
January 03, 2003 - It's almost common knowledge now that both The Two Towers and The Return of the King will each receive special...
whats the deal with this extended version of FOTR and the easter egg and TTT trailor?? i've heard a great deal about it (doesn't that sound like a line from LOTR?) and i'm not sure what it is. what is this easter egg thing?
I looked over the the first disc of the appendices and was amazed. Things worth mentioning:
* The documentry on Tolkien. I thought this would be a truly brushed-over affair, but I was pleasantly surprised to see the kind of thematic material they went into. It went on much longer then I...
After a viewing and a half, I thought I'd put out my feelings on the EE.
To be honest, I had gotten the impression, up to now, that the EE would simply be more of FotR, and thus by it's nature be a better film. However, I think PJ said it best: It is better to think of this as a different cut...
Check out this story from the theonering.net. Sounds awesome to me, though I'm sure the purists will enjoy ripping some of these scenes apart with glee:
