Extended-extended Version?
B. Cook

I would like to know if anyone has heard that
New Line will release, after the 2004 release
of LOTR/ROTK, an extended-extended version
of the three films. What I'm trying to get at
here is that I want to purchase the extended
version of LOTR/FOTR, and the probable releases
of the extended versions of the next two
films. But, I'm not willing to do so if, after
all three have been released in an extended
version, New Line decides to release a boxed
set of all three films in a "newly extended-
extended version." I'm all for the Free-Enterprise
System but, I'd really be ticked if this happened. Any news/thoughts? Thanks.
