LordoftheRings
|Posted .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.

Peter Jackson’s Masterpiece Trilogy
|Posted .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.

Not as advertised
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.DON'T BUY IF YOU WANT COLLECTORS CASE!! I mainly bought this pack because the photos showed that it was an enclosed blu-ray collection, with gold trim and protective special case etc, (just look at the customer photos). Unfortunately this was not the case, it's a pretty standard slip case box for all of the blu-ray to slide in and out of in their respective film cases, but nothing special. I'm glad I got one of the last ones, because I'd had old DVD copies forever, but there is nothing really special about this. Inside each movie case was a lot of weird residue or something that I had to rub off as well. Not really happy with the box, hopefully there's nothing wrong with the films, haven't got around to watching them yet. I'd say the price should have been cheaper though I purchased it on sale, because it was advertised incorrectly and without the special edition awesome box I'd seen previously. A few of the discs have scratches as well, but IF the movies work - I'd say 4 stars is fair. ( for my photos I took out the blu-rays and the inserts to show how dirty the insides were)

LOTR Extended Blu-ray Trilogy most excellent
Posted .2012 LOTR Trilogy Extended Blu-ray with 15 discs is excellent on my Best Buy purchased 2011 Samsung 55" SmartTV 3D Blu-ray with high 240 Hertz refresh rate that is awesome to watch. It was retailed at $99.99 with a $60 discount, so it was $39.99 on November 19, 2012. I would not buy the 4K that is so inflated in price, plus you have to buy a 4K TV.

Great set
|Posted .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.

Great content, but beware of packaging
Posted .Let me start with the good, the content is great. The disks were flawless and the image quality is everything you would hope for. You get all three extended edition films, plus several disks worth of bonus content, behind the scenes, documentaries, extended lore, everything that's been in previous versions of these films is here in crisp high definition. The exterior packaging is gorgeous, the cardboard case that holds all the plastic movie cases is very well made, with a magnetic latch and very pretty box art. !!!HOWEVER, BE WARNED!!! The three cases inside that hold the 15 disks are very poor quality. Each case holds five disks on a set of plastic inner leaves that hinge at the back of the case and allow it to open like a notebook. This plastic is EXTREMELY fragile. When I opened all three of my cases, they were filled with shards of broken plastic. Every single hinge in my set had shattered and the inner leaves were hanging at odd angles. Even the tabs that the disks press onto to hold them in place are fragile, and many of those had shattered as well, leaving the disks just sort of floating around loose. Luckily I did not see any scratches on my disks and to transfer the disk to different generic DVD holders I had laying around, and just display the empty cardboard case on my movie shelf. If you purchase this set, do so with the knowledge that you may very well have to abandon the packaging it comes with, pretty as some of it may be, in order to protect your disks from scratching.

WORTH IT
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendIve stood by and listened to nerd culture rant and rave about "ThE exTenDed EdiTiOn", and took no action. Then the lockdown happened and I found myself bored at home. I decided to finally see what the big deal was. Well, turns out the movies don't feel 4 hours long if you get immersed in the world, which for Tolkien, is basically the goal. Great to watch with your nerd family if you have one. If you don't, that's ok just browse r/lotrmemes for a bit and you'll get the feel of it. Do you have to be a dweeb to like this? NO. I'm not saying it doesnt help, but for real, this is an ADVENTURE story with action! and romance! I feel like Peter Falk trying to sell The Princess Bride to a young boy... look we all know these movies are the shizzle and that geeks make a lot of money anyways so who are we kidding. To sum up: BUY IT, DON'T YOU WANT TO LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE??
Q: QuestionDoes 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.
Asked by Monique.
- A:Answer Yes all three movies are extended
Answered by Onestepbehind
Q: QuestionAre all the discs BluRay? Do all the discs work in the US on a regular Bluray player?
Asked by RS.
- A:Answer I can't be definitive, as I haven't watched all the disks. I think that some are blu ray, and some are dvd. ie, the 6 bluray disks of the movie (2 each). Some of the extra disks are bluray and some are reg. dvd. The quality of the movies and the extras is great. Better than the original dvds and better than the bluray 3-disk set I had bought. If you are a LOTR fan, you will be happy with this purchase.

Q: QuestionDoes 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!
Asked by Dvd.
- A:Answer The movies themselves are on blue ray and will not play in a standard DVD player. The bonus features are on regular DVDs which is why it is mentioned in the description.
