Lordof the rings the trilogy: Extended or original

I am wondering whether i should pay £23 extra for the extended edition of the lord of the rings trilogy but am unsure what the benefits of the extended edition are.

Please could you guys tell me what the features of both ones are.

4 disc sets compared to 2 discs, on average, 45 minutes of extra footage for each movie, director commentaries which are key, and a ton of special features.

Get them used, if you can.

Yes, once you go extended edition, you never go back. Great special features, all those cut scenes, brings the actual movie to roughly 4 hours. I got it, and consider it great value and quality.

it took me 12 hours to watch the LOTR extended trilogy as 1. the annoying thing is is that each movie is split up into 2 disks/parts. thats the only reason im giving it 9/10 instead of 10/10

Extended you get a basically 4 hour movie and you get like 10 hours of documentary and special features.

Yes, quality production, quality product, a good addition to any collection. I would say "a must have", but I wont. Well actually I just did, but eh.

Your a moron. Are you trying to act independent?

All of mine were purchased new at about $25 each. Not too bad considering they're being sold for $50 in some stores.

Hollywood Video is trying to pawn them off at @ $40, which they will never sell. I got FOTR, and ROTK for $22, and TTT for $25, all about 3 weeks ago when they had them on sale at Best Buy.
