LoTR RoTK Extended Edition Specs Released
It's pre-pre-Christmas season, and ThePrinceofWands writes "OMG! It's official, 25% more unbelievable greatness in this version." The linked description (on the official LotR site) starts "DISCS 1-2: The Feature
FEATURE (approx. 250 minutes) - A new version of the final installment in the epic trilogy! The Academy-Award winning film now has 50 minutes of never-before-seen footage incorporated into the film for this highly-anticipated video release." The extended version can be ordered starting on Oct 1st.
I suppose with all the backstories and history, JRRT will be particularly amenable to this ... if you look at the "extras", about half are production details, the rest is documentaries on Middle Earth and how they brought it to life ... very interesting, but I'd rather wait for Discovery Channel's "How they did it" and chat about the series with my other nerdy friends.
