The movie is very good, I enjoyed wacthing it for the 4th time (I saw it 3 times at the Cinima!) :) The specail fetaures disk was good too, I really enjoyed the 3 documentarys, the featureette's I had seen before so wacthed them on the DVD, same with the Enya video and TV spots.
I did wacth the Trailers again because they are superb and well worth wacthing again. The computer game looks rubbish on the Playstation 2, I'm hoping the recently addnoced Gamecube version looks better as I will be buying it.
The preview of The Two Towers was great! Helms Deep looks better than anything I imagioned reading the book and I'm no longer skepical about Andy Serkis as Gollum, The BBC radio play's Gollum is still the best but the movie one seem's to be very good! The woman playing Eyrowin looks quite hot :smirk: can't watie to see that movie! :)
The extended DVD preview was okay, but keeping the gift giving sence out of this verson of the movie was a little stupid. We already have that on pre order :D
All in all a good DVD package. Not the best but still very good :)

Hmm... I think I'm one of the few people who haven't seen it. I'm really not into all these BIG movies that everyone always raves about. I haven't seen Spiderman, or Attack of the Clones. I haven't seen Gladiator or American Beauty, or any of all these Oscar-winning movies. I tend to like ones people hate. ;)

Yeah the indie scene is where its at in my opinion. I was suprised by Lord of the rings. I don't like movies where all the money is spent on effects, and theen just throw a story together.

No I liked lord of the rings, I mentioned it earlier. It's just in general i don't like big budget movies. Guess I shoulda made that clearer.
50 year old book thrown together. LMAO:)

I love Lord Of The Rings and Aragorn is HOT!!. I got the DVD on the day of release and have watched it about 8 times, i love the dvd and all the special features especially The Two Towers trailer, i cant wait til it comes out in the cinemas in December.
Excellent movie, some great ideas, conceptions and adaptations, but, like in 95% of the cases, the book is slightly better.
