I posted my thoughts about the extended scenes here (http://216.73.105.30/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=24831). Overall, I was quite pleased.

And maybe I'll take you up on that offer for RotK, Ryla. :)

Maybe when I get a real job and time off and stuff (goes back to his big book of evil Microsof stuff.)

And Gimli insults elves in Dwarfish, plus Aragorn backhands a snring Dwarf!

And the Aragorn singing bit... what a nasty and fortelling line right at the end...

"She dies"

Yes, Marcus, I loved that bit... I thought this version really reinforced the idea that initially Aragorn is a reluctant heir... moreso than Elrond's "He turned from that path a long time ago. He has chosen exile." line. The scene with his mother's grave, and him singing about Beren and Luthien... just beautiful.

Well, I have spend an ungodly amount of time goingthorugh 4 discs - havent even gotten to the fifth!. 3 days so far and not on repeated play on anything. This is an amazing amout of stuff - good and worthwhile stuff - they shovelled on. Best DVD set released ever by a mile, just for the additions and the special features.

And the really great part about the added stuff is that, for the most part, it's not just a rehash of another special, it really is stuff we haven't seen before. And of course the easter eggs of the mtv spoof of the council scene is... interesting.

Here's one of the new extended scenes you may have missed:

"I must see the head of my order. He is both powerful and wise. He'll know what to do."

The added scenes really give the film a lot more depth and sense in spots. I'm really pleased. I have the only other thing I want on my list.

If you don't even have a VCR, you might as well buy a DVD player and get it on DVD. :D

Yup...although they do have that nice VCR/DVD combo. You could go for that. :)

Are you two going to buy this wonderful thing for me? :D
Cos I have no money. Hence my lack of vcr, cable, and telephone. I only have my precious cable internet because it's part of my Christmas gift(s) from my parents. :(

For some reason I don't like those things, I'm afraid that one of them will break. ^_^;

If I had money to buy and send something to canada.. well, I would... but :crack

I got the SE of LOTR the other day... I really liked the extended/added scenes.. Aragorn.. singing.. :mischief

Some of those things, I swear were in the trailer, like when the elfs give the Fellowship the cloaks.. and the wood-elfs leaving middle earth.

Thanks for the thought Leeloo. I think I might see if I can get an extention thing on my student loans and save up.

I wanna see Aragorn singing :cry I don't wanna wait till Christmas :(

For all those that are interested... You can check out a sound clip of the song of the Wood Elves here (http://www.ryla.net/music).

Poor Boromir. No wonder he tried to take the ring - Galadriel didn't give him any goodies.

Gimili got hair. . .

If you know your Tolkien, you'll know why this semingly bizarre gift was in fact quite a good gift for a dwarf.

I liked that part in the book. With Gimli and the hair, I mean. Maybe she knew Boromir was gonna kick the bucket, she didn't wanna waste anything? :lol
