VVanks 0 Posted October 18, 2004 DON'T WATCH IT!!!! It is full of spoilers! If you want to be surprised, don't watch it. The trailer kinda summed up all the extended scenes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlickWili 0 Posted October 19, 2004 VVanks, don't you just hate it when the marketing gurus do this? It's like, "ok, so I'm paying extra to see what I just saw?" Grrr... Many times I've gone to the theatre to watch a comedy because of a couple of good trailers that I've previewed, only to find that the funniest jokes were the ones we already watched in the preview! Yep. Definitely throwing down some hard-earned cash for this puppy... to complete the Extended Edition collection I have. Although some of my friends are waiting for the complete 3-set, uber-boxed, ultra-magnum, mondo-mega release to come out. I presume that this ed. will have even more footage and interviews and director's blurbs, etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead, it showed me the coveted Mouth of Sauron, the Scene between Aragorn and the Palantir and Gandalf vs. the King of all Wraiths. I wanted to be amazed when I finally put that DVD into my player, and watch it for the first time. Now, I feel like I'm buying the ROTK:EE DVD for collection reasons. Couldn't they have made it like the Starwars teasers? Where they showed about 1 second of footage interlaced with a lot of fading in, fading out and coinciding with Darth Vader's breathing? Here's what I would've done: Low Drum Roll like the army of Sauron in ROTK Title: Return of the King: Extended Edition Fade in: Gandalf and Merry on the horse, but don't show the Nazgul king. Fade out Fade in: Frodo and Sam Fade out Fade in: Aragorn and the palantir but nothing afterwards Fade out Fade in: The mouth of sauron standing far away so it's out of focus. Fade out And flash Sauron's One eye End title; Coming December and with the Bam bum, bam bum LOTR music from the Fellowship of the Rings when Sauron first appears.
