Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A sequel better than the first...
Review: When it comes to trilogies, its rare to find one much better than the first. For LOTR Trilogy, its one of the rare.

I enjoyed the first LOTR: TFOTR Special Extended Edition DVD Set with the extras, the documentaries plus others (only dissapointed that there are no trailers) and with LOTR: TTT Special Extended Edition DVD Set, I never expect to enjoy even more.

With new deleted scenes and documentaries, your watching experience have become a whole lot much better compare to what you have enjoyed in theatres. And this is one of those DVDs I recommend to any fans out there to own it today.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Extended version is the best
Review: If you are a LOR fan the extended version is a worthwhile purchase. As with the first extended LOR the additional footage completes the story. While the theatrical version is whats intended for the masses the extended version makes you feel like you understand everything thats transpiring. Definite buy. I love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Extended Version far superior to theatrical release.
Review: Many Tolkienites who viewed Peter Jackon's adaptation of The Two Towers could not help but feel somewhat disappointed by the fashion that Jackson strayed from the book concerning the role of Faramir in the hobbits' quest. In the original cut, Faramir comes across as dark, cruel, curt and almost malevolent, a man who then at the end unexplainably lets the captive hobbits go. Of course, in the book Faramir is a noble character, who is only ever-so-briefly tempted by the ring.
The Extended Version shows that Jackson, while still deviating from the book, was attempting to explore the character of Faramir more deeply than even Tolkien bothered to. In extended footage, we see Faramir as a neglected son, desperate to win the confidence and love of his father, and thus tempted to bring the Ring to Gondor in order to "prove his qualities." A flashback effectively establishes the relationship between Farmir, his now late brother Boromir, and their less than noble father Denethor. Furthermore, an added monologue by Farmir musing over a slain Southron adds a degree of moral ambiguity and reflection to a war story that usually seems to be unabiguously good guy vs. bad.
The extended version also has an important scene developing Frodo's relationship with Gollum. Some critics and movie-goers complained that The Two Towers lacked much of the character interaction that made Fellowship so charming; much of that interaction was edited out in the original cut of Two Towers, but has been edited back in to the Extended Version.

Summary: about 'The Two Towers
Review: When I first saw it in December, two years ago. I actually thought that the first 'Lord of the Rings was better. When I left the theater it seemed that few of the scenes were pretty broing, and not as much work in the characters then the first. But when I bought the Extended Version dvd, it gave me a, real good backround of the whole thing. 'Cause when I saw it in theaters, it felt like bits of pieces were missing. Then again, all in all, I think there was more effort put into the first one. I had recently seen 'Return of the King, and the war scenes were much better than the first, and second. - 3.5 stars

Summary: attn. eric t miller
Review: i would like to know who you think is more of a fairy in LOTR, than Jack Sparrow in POTC. Really, im curious. reading your review i felt angry, not that you hate LOTR; i could care less what you think. You frighten me; you sound like someone who would murder a homosexual for no reason. eric t miller better be an alias; you sure arent making any friends here.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love the commentaries!
Review: Besides the amazing extra footage that comes on this DVD (actually put into the movie; love it!), my favorite features are the commentaries. Most entertaining commentary; the one by the cast. Sure, it's slower at some times than others, but it would definitely be worth your time to watch the whole thing. Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan are absolutely hilarious; they make me laugh so hard I cry. Funniest ever during the scene at the Entmoot.

Mmmm...Pumpernickel...

Anyway, if you are a huge fan of the LOTR movies/books, you absolutely must get this DVD to experience this phenomenon to the utmost.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best movies
Review: The movie was right. It was one of the best movies i seen that month. That was like the only movie that continued it correctly. Like in the first one i thought Gandolf was dead when he got pulled of the cliff or bridge. because they didn't show where or how he had landed. You had to opinionate what happen. But in the 2nd one they showed clips from the 1st one and show what happen to him. I also like the characters in the movie and the battle and where the battle took place.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Middle Earths finest pile of crap
Review: Why in the world this film is SOOOOO revered is well beyond my capacity. Too Long. Too much bad CG. Too much running from annoying non-plot driving "threats". Villians that ain't scary and a slow motion death scene the like of which havent been seen since B rated schlock. You people can have have your sad devotion to a trilogy of films that have more flaws than 10 Star Wars prequels. It is a sad day for cinema...I am only staying anonymous to avoid a hundred thousand virgins emailing hate towards me.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I like it.
Review: I like it very much. Please try.
