Not Worth It If You Already Have 12-Disc

This extended version dvd set of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy is quite good, though I cannot recommend it if you already own the 12-disc box set or the 4-disc extended versions individually. There are some new bonus features on this most recent version, but unfortunately almost all the previous bonus features from the past dvd releases have been dropped, as has the DTS audio. Fanatic fans may want to purchase anyway, but it's a unnecessary and costly investment in my opinion.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The trilogy for all time

The extended version is really the best version out there, and with all the extras you can't go wrong. Peter Jackson wove whole new story lines just for the extended versions.
This is definitely the version to get.
The only drawback is that these versions are LONG. It will take almost 12 hours straight just to watch the movies so this isn't just a Saturday afternoon pop-in-a-simple-movie thing.
