Return of the King DVD

[James]

I got mine today. At Best Buy, it came with a free Entertainment Weekly collector's edition all about the trilogy, including interviews with almost every main and supporting character and major crew members, a round-about discussion of the making of the films with various cast members, summaries of the trilogy, including information on what is one each extended version (including RotK), an interview with the maker of the LotR animated movie, trivia/eggs from each film, details on what happens to characters after the trilogy, glossary definitions for various places, persons, and things from Middle Earth, and more.

Quite a bit for jusy 76 pages, but a very entertaining read.

And for those who care, here's some of what will be in the extended version of RotK, which will be 49 minutes longer and have 300 new FX shots;
