1 VF-1 2NV Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I'll rent it, watch it, return it, and then wait to get the extended version. Quote
Uxi Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Waiting for extended and borrow my impatient friend's copy of the first one until then. Quote
GobotFool Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I wonder if Jackson when he releases his masterpiece whole boxed set of the movies if he is just going to merge them all, in other words, no credits at end of Fellowship. it goes straight to Two towers, which would have no opening credits, and after the end of two towers no end credits going straight to return of the king. Kinda like when they take an anime ova and take all the eps and just make one long movie out of it. Granted the lord of the rings set would be a 9 hour movie, more like 10 and a half if he keeps all the extended scenes. and who knows he may even add more Quote
Commander McBride Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 cwb, the Gollum statue is where I draw the line. would you want something that ugly staring back at you? Who wouldn't? Quote
Chuey Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 From what I remember I seeing on E!, they will do the same thing as with Fellowhip of the Ring. They will release the standard edition and release the expanded version in November. Personally, I am waiting to buy all three movies in one collection. Quote
Drad Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I'm not sure if I'm buying it. I'm kinda tired of LOTR DVDs coming out in six trillion versions. We'll see. Quote
007-vf1 Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I am waiting for the whole trilogy digitaly remastered with extra-new-featured-directors-cut's-cut and extra-extended-edition film version..... Until then I am just renting them; much cheaper. W end up buying 3 versions of the same movie? Quote
batpinoy Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Now how many people hated the way the Directors cut of LOTR fellowship was made. I mean you had to switch disk in the middle of the movie. Was it possible to have one soundtrack (DTS and Dolby Digital) to be on seperate disk we did not have to exchange disk. Quote
mikeszekely Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Besides, this week, gotta save the money for Soul Calibur II. Ah.....same here. Which one are you going for? PS2? Gamecube? X-Box? I gotta have my favorite character - LINK! B) I'm going to have to go with Xbox. The PS2 version was out of it from the start, since I heard that there are mad load times, slow down, and Heihachi sucks (for Soul Calibur II, anyway... well, yeah, with that diaper, he sucked in Tekken 4, too). It was close for Gamecube and Xbox for me, since the Cube has the cooler character but the Box has the better controller. I eventually decided to go with Xbox, since my best friend is getting the Cube version. I want to play as Link, I'll go to his house. He wants to play as Spawn, he can come to my place. Quote

Actually, I don't think I could sit through LOTR without that little break in the middle to go to the bathroom, take a nap, something. Quote
SuperOstrich Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I'm definitely waiting for the DC version. The first movie was so much better as the extended version. Quote

Toby Danger Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 I'm going to buy it on pay-per-view, record it on a VHS, and then have that to satisfy me until the extended version. Thats my game plan. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 Whohoo! My first post on the new board. I will probably pick up both versions, since the extras in the regular edition won't be showing up in the extended cut. For those who are buying the DVD coming out tomorrow, what is the best price you have found so far? Around Southern California, the lowest price I've found so far is Circuit City ($14.99). Quote
EXO Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 That's a good price. It's not even worth driving around to find a better price with our gas hikes in L.A. Luckily my brother will get this, so I can wait forthe extended version. 1 more day! Quote
MrDisco Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 i've got the DC version on preorder. along similar lines i think i'm going to pass on matrix:reloaded and wait for the eventual super-duper box set. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 Just found a review of the exclusive contents of the 2 DVD set, check it out: AICN review for TTT DVD Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 26, 2003 Author Posted August 26, 2003 Well. On my way home from the gym I decided to pass by Best Buy, I was only looking to pick up The Simpsons 3rd Season on DVD. But I cracked and picked up the Two Towers for the heck of it. Quote
Tekkaman Blade Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Nope, I'm waiting for the Extended Version. Since it's not an anime. I can wait. Quote

I was comparing the advertised prices from the Sunday paper ads. Brought Circuit City's ad to Best Buy today and got them to match the price, plus 10% off the difference. Less driving for me, yay.

treatment Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 well, i just bought the WS-version for +ACQ-15 at the local wal-mart about an hour ago. :) Quote
Effect Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 I picked up the widescreen dvd version at walmart today for $15. I might buy the extended version as well when it comes out, it would really depend on my mood and money on me at the time I'm at the store. Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 27, 2003 Author Posted August 27, 2003 well, i just bought the WS-version for +ACQ-15 at the local wal-mart about an hour ago. :) The sad thing is I still haven't found the FLCL boxset edition. Quote
treatment Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 (edited) well, i just bought the WS-version for +ACQ-15 at the local wal-mart about an hour ago. :) The sad thing is I still haven't found the FLCL boxset edition. Sadly, no flcl-boxset unless you buy it from online, i guess. Even suncrap don't have the boxset on retail. FLCL disc-3 (non-boxset) is out on Software Etc, Electronic Boutique, and GameStop stores for $24. You might ask the clerks of these stores if they have any boxed-version left.

Gerwalker Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 Psst, why pick it up & sell it? Just rent it, much cheaper!I'm waiting for the extended edition, it's only 2-3 months until it's out, and the video quality is so much better. Because by the time it is out in Brazil..... the 4dvd edition will be out. And besides.... I don't have a R4 DVD player. Wrong Abombz!! The DVD (region 4, spanish, portuguese and english ) is out today here in Argentina and since the dvd was made in Brazil I assume that it is out there too. The extended edition of FOTR was never edited here and I'm afraid Two towers will follow the same fate. Quote
