    I thought I already got this. Must be stoned again.
    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

        My wife insisted on buying the "regular" version when it came out, now I'm insisting on the extended version (I warned her...). Now she's not in a rush to get it. Bah!

        I'm really looking forward to the extra footage; it made the first movie so much better, so I'm hoping it does the same for the second.

          To watch, purchase, or read any LOTR product, film or merchandise would be to break my promise to God.

          I dont want to go to hell...

            223 minutes? The original was only 180 minutes--that's a LOT of new stuff. Fellowship only had 20 minutes of new scenes.

                I thought Fellowship had 40 minutes of added footage, and Two Towers would also have the same amount?

                Either way, I'll be buying both Extended Versions very soon.

                  the new stuff is good. the faramir stuff shouldn't have been cut(180 minutes is painful tho).

                      yes there is more backstory and exposition on the journey of faramir's character in the extended version.

                        They waste more time on a journey that, not only didn't happen, but goes totally against Tolkien's character of Faramir?

                        What a tragedy.

                            No - I'm waiting until all 3 come out as a box set next year.

                              I just bought the regular DVD ($10-used) so unless it's cheap- nope.
