Warner Home Video has officially announced the Blu-ray release of the
extended version of The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy
for June 28, 2011. This three-movie collection will be presented in a
15-disc set (6 BDs, 9 DVDs), packaged in multi-disc elite packaging
inside a premium rigid slipcase, selling for under $100us or 60#uk.
Each movie will be split across two discs. The audio will be 6.1 DTS-
HD Master. The Fellowship of the Ring has been re-mastered from the
original 2k digital files. Go to the specific LOTR title pages for
content details.
NCM Fathom and Warner Home Video are bringing all three The Lord of
the Rings Extended Edition films to U.S. movie theaters nationwide.
The events will begin with a new personal introduction for each film
from Peter Jackson captured from The Lord of the Rings prequel set,
'The Hobbit', and will be immediately followed by the Extended Edition
feature presentations which altogether include nearly 3 hours of
additional feature footage carefully selected by Peter Jackson.
The trilogy will be featured in an exclusive series of three in-
theater events including - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of
the Ring™ on June 14, 2011; The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers™ on
June 21, 2011; and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King™ on
June 28, 2011. Each event will begin at 7:00 p.m. local time. All
three have been digitally remastered for high-definition.
The trailer for the soon to be released thriller, 'The Devil's Rock'
can now be accessed from the Sneak Peek Trailers page. There have been
some release date changes for dvds of older titles. 'The Returning' is
scheduled for 20 June; 'Came a Hot Friday' is now scheduled for 20
July; 'Illustrious Energy' and 'Sons for the Return Home' will both be
available starting 20 August. 'A Soldier's Tale' and 'Shaker Run' have
both been rescheduled for 20 October.
I am testing "Chat Box" at the Sneak Peek Trailers Page before adding
it to other pages. I therefore would appreciate your comments and
suggestions, but please keep it brief as it is not designed for long
dissertations:)
