Return of the King Extended Edition

[Christopher Walken]

I want to get the lord of the rings: extended edition dvd soon, but i want to wait till after finals are done. has anybody watched it yet? extra 50 minutes of footage any good? I thought the extra footage in the previous 2 made the movies even better.

I got a few of my questions answered with the extra footage, but I don't want to spoil it for you.

Yeah...i liked the part where saruman gets killed and the other added parts..

I'm hoping the wife gets it for me for Christmas. I have the 4 DVD Extended Edition of the first two movies, I have to get this one, too, to complete the collection.

Huh??? The 20 minute ending was like 15 minutes too long already. Luckily there was no extra scenes added in the extended edition.

Saruman death really added to the movie though it does go against what occured in the book.
