This set is fantastic. The extented edition makes the movie even better. Peter Jackson did a great job. I know it sounds stupid, but after watching the Movie, I want to be a filmaker.

What was your favorite scene in the movie?

To many to mention..

It was so extra good..

I love the trilogy... the extras are cool too. The cast was tremendous.

sag10 said:

Favorite moments..when Gandalf speaks to Pippin about Grey Heavens.

Favorite lines... Aragorn to Hobbits:"My friends... you bow to no one."

It's ok.


It lacks the depth of Sam Firstenberg's greatest films though.
The problem with Rings is that it just doesn't speak to our generation.
Firstenberg's material is always spot on.

Jackson really needs to take notes from him.

Thats some funny shit.

I feel the same about the liv Tyler character.

so does it warrant a FOUR disc set? i still haven't seen this one, and i'm wondering if i need to slog through four discs of hobbits, or if there's just one damn disc i can look at so i can finally get through all this. i like these movies, but for my pointy little brain, a little bit of tolkien can go a long, long, LONG way.

Anxiety said:

yes, it does warrant 4 disc set. I find the extras very interesting. Not only is it about making the movies, but it is about the relationships that the cast had developed over the years. If you enjoyed the movies -- get the set.

Anxiety said:

Just go out and rent Fame. It's more your pace.

This from someone who asked me to explain "New York Minute" to him because he wasn't able to suspend disbelief.

AsianBomb777 said:

well, you got me there on both counts.

slm4m said:

that was an awesome moment

slm4m said:

Another great one: Eowyn's "I am no man!..." before slaying the Witch-King...

oooooh yeah! aww man this is making me really want to watch it again

The Extended Edition is LOOOOONNNNGGGG. I like it though.

They cut out quite a lot of scenes involving Merry and Pippin, didn't they?

Favourite scene: near the end when Frodo wakes up and the whole gang's there, giggling away at some mad in-joke.

Favourite line: Aragorn: "My friends...you bow to no one."

I watched it last weekend.

Favorite scene: the shot of Gollum dancing after finally getting the ring back inside Mount Doom and Frodo starts to charge him. Visually, it's just a great shot that gives me chills each time I've seen it.

Scheduled for next year is the "Holy shit, this motherfucker is so damn long, I dare you to watch it without a bathroom break" Bladder Burster Extended Edition.

I'm there!

It is wonderful movie, it makes the whole story so great. Even though I have the story quite different in my mind.

My favourite scene (well, one of them) is the one where Éomer finds Éowyn from the battlefield and takes her in his arms and cries like a baby holding her, so touching *snif*.

If you just like the movies, I'd say settle with the one-disc version. I like this last one best, but even still it was far too long for me. One hour's worth of endings! Add 40 extra minutes on to that and it's over 4 hours. A lot of it extra character development - not something you need with a series that is already 9 hours plus.
