Most Recent Customer ReviewsDate : 2010-03-11 Summary : Insulting What, Warner? Do you think we are all morons? You released the extended edition on DVD years ago. Since that footage obviously exists in an edited form, do you really think we would forget about it and buy the theatrical release again just because it's in high definition?
We will not be duped into your double-dip attempt. Either release the extended edition on Blu now, and profit from it, or you will wait for my money.
Date : 2010-03-11 Summary : "Hey Ho to the bottle I Go" I was really disappointed that not only is there no new footage, which I thought for certain would be at least be a special feature, but it is the theatrical release!!!!!!!! Bah Humbug!
We love LOTR,all movies and books. But sadly we will not be purchasing it on blu-ray unless it is the extended edition, which according to Amazon isn't due out until 2011 or 2012! It will more than likely coincide with the release of "the Hobbit. Part 1"
Well anyways. Count me in on this protest. Love you, New Line Cinema, but seriously! Really? You think we are that gullible?

Date : 2010-03-11 Summary : Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me! I bought "LOTR" in theatrical and extended versions already. This is just a Greedy RIP-OFF by the movie studio. WAIT until the extended Bluray version is released Before buying! Probably around Christmas.
Date : 2010-03-11 Summary : Fool Me Once Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. No thanks. I'll wait for the blu-ray Extended Edition (EE). Forever, if need be.
I have the DVD EE of [what I consider to be] the greatest movie ever made. And it upconverts nicely to a very good picture.
Do I blame the studios? No. They are doing what corporate mentality is suppose to do. Take as much of your money as is possible and let the buyer beware.
In this instance however, I would like to see a planet-wide boycott of this "rip" release.
Even if you don't care about the money, care about the cause.
Can we all pull together on this one? We shall see?
Don't buy this standard edition release. If you do, shame on you!
Date : 2010-03-11 Summary : Why no extended editions How many times must we buy this movie? Your fans are smart enough to realize when they are being ripped off.
