Forums - Sony - The Lord of the Rings hitting Blu-Ray late next year...

pffft. I love Lord of the Rings, and would definitely say that as a trilogy it's my favorite "movie", but I'm not buying the blu-ray versions of the theatrical releases...I'll wait until they release the "real" versions of the movies..

Delayed releases for tie-ins for the lose.

This is great news for present and future Blu-Ray owners. 'Tis a shame that the extended version aren't coming with the package (Fellowship and Towers extensions are fantastic, somewhat lackluster for King imo), but still, a great series is a great series.

Hopefully Blu-Ray players will be at a more affordable price by the time LotR comes out. It may just push me over the edge.

Oh, and my favorites go in the order of Fellowship, Towers, and then King. All are great though.

Agreed 100%.

@smeags: C'mon, the Mouth of Sauron rocked. 



omg,
can't wait to watch The Lord of the Rings in blu-ray.
it must be awesome



Ah yeah, forgot about him.

It's just that the whole Path of the Dead sequence was made kinda lackluster through the added scenes. Kinda ruined the suspense when we know that they would fight.

Still... Peter Jackson was killed...

well in my opinion its the best thing ever filmed. to the guy who said titanic, its my second actually.

2009 is year of AVATAR!



 

   

Hells freakin bells with Peter and his general and extended versions. I got the extended version of KK and later he releases his Director's extended edition. This is turning into that South Park episode---don't rape him Peter .......ahh NO!!!!!

 

edit: LotR is my favorite movie trilogy.  I don't want them to screw it up with releases, re-releases, extended re-releases, sequel box sets, collector's edition releases like Star Wars.  I said screw it all and got Adywan's version.



You know, I always wait for the extra disc special edition bullshit, and then never end up looking at any of the bonus stuff.



Ok that's great, but I still need Star Wars on Blu Ray.

I don't really care about the special features.  I just want the extended versions of the films!
