Any Extended Edition News?
 

Anyone perchance know if there is any news or release date for the DVD or Extended Edition? I couldnt find any, but maybe someone has connections?

The release date for the Extended Version DVD of Two Towers is November 2003 (I don't think they have given a day of release during that month yet)<P>The theatrical version will be released August 2003<P><A HREF="http://www.theonering.net/perl/newsview/8/1042832069" TARGET=_blank>Link to release dates - click here</A><p>[ January 22, 2003: Message edited by: Boromir's Lady ]

i can tell u some things i'm pretty sure are in the extended edition:<P>*a scene where aragorn releases brega (theodrids horse), as he's gone a bit mental, with all the stuff with theodrid n all. Aragorn sez he's seen enough war. (yes that's how he appears later)<P>*a council of elves, deciding wether to help the race of men<P>*a scene where gollum recounts the tale of murdering deagol for the ring.<P>*a scene where grishnak and others are talking about what it is they are meant to obtain for their master.<P>hope that helps

Is this based on something or just guess work?<P>Anyway ...<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> *a scene where aragorn releases brega (theodrids horse), as he's gone a bit mental, with all the stuff with theodrid n all.

Do you mean just before he goes into Helm's Deep he lets the horse go and says, "More war, this I don't need."?<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> *a council of elves, deciding wether to help the race of men <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Sounds cool. I love it when Gollum calls Smeagol "murderer". It would be nice to put it in context. Poor Deagol. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>*a council of elves, deciding wether to help the race of men. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>More arguing elves? Maybe it helps set up Haldir better, but this sounds pretty dull to me.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> *a scene where grishnak and others are talking about what it is they are meant to obtain for their master. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>More arguing and foul tempered orcs. I like that. I think this would be usefull for those that didn't read the book.<P>H.C.

That sounds pretty awesome!! I can't wait to see it!!

Two bits of dialogue I would love to see reinstated: <BR>Gimli crying out Baruk Khazad! Khazad ai-menu! when he jumps. <BR>And Legolas' line during the chase of the Three Hunters: 'Come! Let us go on! The thought of those merry young folk driven like cattle burns my heart.'
