 Re: Return of the King - Extended Version
Forgive me, but I was a big fan of the extended versions of the first two LOTR movies, but this so-called "extended" version of Return of the King is kind of an embarassment. If you watch the trailer for the theatrical version, there are TONS of things that did not make the cut in the extended version that would have been well worth it. For example, expanding the discussion between Arwen and Elrond. Come on, in the middle of the scene she somehow changes her clothes and starts reading an unidentified book. There was much more to this scene that didn't make the extended version, which is a departure from what PJ tried to do in his first two. I was really disappointed, I didn't feel the extended version expanded on anything, which is what the first two extended versions really tried to do and succeeded in doing. |
