The seven-disc box set is officially titled “The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy” and will contain the theatrical versions of all three films.
Unsurprisingly, no details have been given for the extended versions of the films. It’s obvious Warner are hoping to milk this release for all it’s worth before unleashing the much desired extended edition box-set for the hardcore fans. No doubts some will buy this and then upgrade to the extended edition as soon as it comes out (including me I guess …).
The retail price has been set at $99.99 but it’s now available for pre-order on the Amazon US website for $69.99, although a release date is not yet available.
No sign of it yet, on Amazon UK, other than an entry with the option to sign up for a release notification, but I can’t imagine it being too far away from the US release, whenever that maybe.

I just love it when a movie appears from nowhere, with no huge media hype, and looks as promising as this does (remember when The Matrix came out?). This is director, Duncan Jones, first major film, having only directed a scifi short, Whistle, back in 2000. From the looks of the trailer, it certainly seems that he has done an excellent job. The movie poster also looks fantastic.

The film first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and was quickly snapped up by Sony Pictures Classics. It will be released in US, at limited theaters on 12th June. Haven’t been able to find out a UK release date, but I’ll probably wait till it’s out on blu-ray anyway.

I have really high hopes for this film and hope it turns out to be as good as the trailer.
