Info on the LOTR:FOTR DVD

Posted by Hemos on from the forth-coming dept.

WonderBoy Cox writes "IGN's FilmForce has an interesting article about the much anticipated Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (LOTR:FOTR) DVD coming in the fall of 2002, and the next two movies. According to Jackson The Two Towers is fairly complete in rough cut and Return of the King is coming along nicely. "Both films will be between two-and-a-half and three hours in length with 500 to 600 effects shots, much like the first movie." But, the best part, is that he DVD will have around 30 to 40 minutes of extra footage! "

    Cut out almost all of the Bilbo, Samwise and Gollum shit. Boring, boring, tramp through the decaying landnear Mordor, boring, boring.


    Just give me lots of Eowyn pining after Aragorn, and Merry copping a feel on horseback.

    How much more lingering over painfully attractive, bathetic, cloyingly emotive faces can one tolerate before shaving one's head and climbing the nearest water tower? I guess we'll find out.

    Tell your sister it's just a movie and not to be scared.

  5. Extra Footage? by liquidsin · · Score: 1, Troll

    So, 30-40 minutes extra footage? How many more scenes of Frodo crying does that translate to?
