Maybe it’s the geek in me, but for my money there is no finer film series than Lord of the Rings. To me, it represents the pinnacle in filmmaking. I know many of you disagree… and that’s fair… it’s just my opinion. However….
I HATE HATE HATE it when studios play with us by releasing 8 different DVD sets for the same movie. And now New Line is doing it again. Here comes a new DVD set for all three Lord of the Rings films:
For each film, disc one presents both the theatrical version of the film and its extended edition through seamless branching, while disc two features an intimate, never-before-seen documentary created by Costa Botes. The feature-length documentaries, with more than 300 minutes of never-before-available footage, focus on a number of complexities and circumstances and affected the making of the movies.
GIVE ME A BREAK! “Oh, we have a new behind the scenes documentary for Lord of the rings! Wanna see it? Well ya CAN’T unless you buy the whole entire movie again! MMuuuhahahahahaha! We’re not just gonna charge you $10 for the documentary… no no no… we’re gonna charge you $30 to buy the movie… that you already own… AGAIN!!! HAHAHAHA! Lucas has nothing on us!”
I really hope people aren’t stupid enough to buy this… unless they don’t already own a copy, then it’s fine.
