Q: I'm very interested in getting this special extended edition of the trilogy, however i'm seeing images of the films in a slipcover than the special collectors case i wanted which worries me. I i were to purchase it, what version i would be getting?

A: This set comes in a cardboard sleeve box with individual black blu-ray cases containing 2 blu-ray movie discs, 2 DVD Appendices discs and a Behind the scenes DVD for each movie. The Appendices and Behind the scenes discs are the same ones in the individually boxed DVD versions of the extended editions. To my knowledge this has been the only packaging for the blu-ray set, other than the initial blu-ray release box that came with an included replica of the One Ring.

Q: This isn't the remastered version is it? Just want to make sure

A: No. It's the extended edition on blueray. The video quality is excellent. It's like being when it was at the theatre.

Q: Does this include the extended versions of all three films? The description makes it seem as if this is only one of the three LOTR movies.

A: Yes this is all 3 movies. Trilogy is the term use for a set of 3.

Q: Does this blue ray collection also work in a DVD player? The description mentions dvd but I want to make sure as I do not have a blue ray player. Thanks!

A: If it is a standard dvd player, then it will not play blue ray dvds. However, if you have a gaming console such as a ps3 or xbox, it will play the movies for you.

Q: Does this set have the option to watch the theatrical version as well? We may not always want to sit through the extended versions.

A: undefined

Q: Will this set deliver with Dolby Atmos surround sound?

A: These do not use Atmos encoding but are in DTS-HD Master Audio 6.1 surround.

Q: Are all the discs BluRay? Do all the discs work in the US on a regular Bluray player?

A: Only the movie (2-discs) are BluRay. All the additional content is on DVD. This set sold by Best Buy in the US is region 1 and plays on US players

Q: When will this be available again?

A: undefined

Peter Jackson’s Masterpiece Trilogy
Peter Jackson hit it out of the park and set up fans of Tolkien’s middle earth work to cheer for the big screen. The audio (score and sound effects), crisp picture and wonderfully compelling storylines weave textures through multiple themes. This 15 disc Deluxe edition blu ray box set is by far my favorite film trilogy adapted from literature. Enjoy in 5.1 or 7.1 surround, in multiple languages, closed captioning or in Director mode. There’s something to learn with each viewing.

The product is great which is why I’ll give it a five star rating; the service provided by Best Buy to get my item was terrible/ worst experience ever. Originally ordered for pick at the front desk for check out and my item which would be ready in an hour for pick and was not ready; Once I got there I waited 3 hours because they mentioned they were behind on orders and then they couldn’t find my order, so I walked into the store and picked the item off the shelf myself and witnessed one guy/ Best Buy Employee casually walking around the isle searching for movies taking his time all while other customers are waiting for their orders (no wonder they were so behind) It looks like the employees can’t work together since I saw the manager doing most of the work while the rest of the employees hardly tried to get orders in on time. Very, very slow workers; you’re better off going to the store and picking up the item off the shelf as well and you’ll be lucky to not experience terrible service by an employee there I recently went on November again to buy a printer; my bf asked an employee a question and he smirked and gave him the answer as if my boyfriend should have known the answer, obviously we asked a question because we are not aware and don’t know, the least the employee could do is kindly respond and not be so arrogant. By the way we never lost our cool, we were kind and patient in both situations. Hope this review helps in bettering customer service.

Great set
This is an awesome set, there is a ton of behind the scenes content. Just to note: the cases themselves are pretty fragile, so handle them carefully.
