And I can't help it, I just get annoyed when I see interviews with Elijah. READ THE BOOK, you airhead.....

First quibble: That isn't in the Houses of Healing; it's in Eowyn's room in Edoras. If you look behind them, the architecture is definitely Rohirric, not Gondorean.

Second quibble: I completely agree. Not only that, he's a very verbose airhead.

Length of Movie: 250 minutes; or 4 hours and 10 minutes. That means the new scenes amount to approximately 50 minutes total. *green* And, as AbercrombieOfRohan said, the appendices are about 20 hours. w00t.

Essex, I agree with you on that. That was one of my favourite little scenes in the books. I'm glad PJ&Co. put it back in. ^_^

Rimbaud, I would think that you would need to set aside something like 12 hours to watch all the Extended Editions in one sitting.

I agree that the Extended Editions have replaced the theatrical releases as "the real films". Despite knowing that they would be superseded pretty quickly, I still couldn't help buying each of the theatrical releases on DVD when they came out.

Still, at least these Extended Editions do offer a lot more in return for the additional expense.

I still think the mouth of sauron looks silly. He seems to be too small and according to me he doesn't look frightening at all

Wow! Awsome sneek preview... and some laughs...

For example when Boyd says, "Look how pretty i was..." Dominique gave him a doubtful look...

And, of course when saruman smacks grima...classic evil overlord to minion affection...

plus! I got to see boromir another time! Yay-ness! *Ka does victory dance... He looked ultra pretty, and with the classic-cannot- forget- deviant- grin. (I watched that four or five times... yes, i'm guilty!

) I wonder if Denethor has always thought that about him...

And when aragorn talks to sauron... it reminds me of how my friend threatens apple when his ipod breaks...Ah, so refreshing...

Lovely! Now i have to go and buy the dvd again! (I was smart and waited for the TT to come out on special edition... but, someone gave me RTK widescreen awhile back. It was sort of a thank you gift...)
