My guess is that is the same reason that cut the last Harry Potter film in half.

I’m talking about blu-ray edition. He released the blu-ray theatricals a year or so ago, and a lot of people were put out that they couldn’t release both on DVD together. I didn’t buy the theatrical, but I plan on buying the extended. There’s just so many that I have shelf room for!

You’re right, there’s only so much space in people’s homes. I think I have LOTR in every format and they need to stop. Although, all home video release decisions are made by Warner Brothers and the guy in charge of that division is a madman.

That's why Peter is doing The Hobbit in two films. There is so much to cover, if he were to try to do just one film, it wouldn't do justice to the book.

Hi Race,

It’s December 2011, Starz has the trilogy playing all month. Do you know if they are playing the extended versions? I caught part of one movie, which had scenes I don’t remember. Do you know what was added on? Was there enough to buy copies of the extended versions for 15 bucks on Amazon? Thanks, FReegards Race

No Idea, I bought the set! :)

and the very last one in Return of the King skips and I threw out the receipt before watching them all!

I was not impressed with the HD version, I thought just using my 1080P upgrade screen to the old version was okay enough, but, it was a nice picture
