I'm thinking that I'll wait for the 3 films to be released in their entire glory, as a set . Christmas?

TheBlueRaja · 16-10-2004, 18:34

Not much point - you will still need to get up and change the DVD half way through each movie

So this is the extended version?

You mean they actually cut crap out of the cinema release?

I dont wish to sound too negative, but I really think they are cashing in a little bit too much on the LOTR crap.
Firstly we get 3 movies, all 3 of which were terminally boring, then each movie comes out on DVD, then its released again with other crap, then they release it again with even more crap, then they release the trilogy they then go back and release the 3rd movie again with even more crap in it.

Sorry but thats just how I see it. Star wars is pretty much doing the same kinda crap, OK First time on DVD....wow, how many releases on video? how many "free" showing on TV? yet they still make money from a gullible public that buys movies they already have over and over again because the newest version has an etra 5 minutes of behind the scenes in the catering truck section!!!

Come on guys, whilst the movies were well made, they are not THAT good.

Not crap, no - Only parts that would make the film too long for a theatrical release, personally I think even when all 3 have had their extended versions released it will be too short and have important parts missing.

Not crap, no... But then if you didn't like the original version I wouldn't expect you to understand/appreciate this.

5mins? - Can you post a link where you saw an extended version of either LOTR OR Star Wars where the extras only consist of this please.

Yes they are, In my opinion

- While you don't agree - that's fine too

Edit - I am also probably not alone in the hope that 'The Hobbit' is made as soon as possible

- but you probably aren't looking forward to that either

whether the content is to anyone's taste - and to be fair, you don't have to buy any of them, if that is the case, I do think the way they do the versions is wrong - we should be able to choose either the 'standard' version or the 'extended' version at the same time. The way they do it now does 'bully' people into getting both, imo.

I love the films, & I first read The Hobbit 40 years ago

I tend to agree with Timewarrior, we went down the route of buying the books, the niser newer book, then going to all the films at the cinema, buying the first editions of the DVD's then the enhanced editions etc.
However, given the time it has taken to bring this out it has all lost it's appeal, we no longer hanker for watching it all again so that we can spot a few extra minutes of filming.

We won't bother thanks.
