The 12-disc special edition of “The Lord of the Rings” is a dream come true for fans


At the end of the four-hour running time of the final instalment of The Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King, there were those die-hard Middle Earth fans who did not wish to say goodbye to Frodo and company.

Now with a special 12-disc extended version of the trilogy, thanks to Eagle Home Entertainment, one can put off the final goodbyes for a bit.

The DVDs feature the three movies, Fellowship of the Ring , The Two Towers and The Return of the King with new and extended scenes selected by director Peter Jackson himself.

In all, 123 minutes of footage have been added with digital effects to go along.

The multiple-award-winning (17 Oscars in all) trilogy features the who’s who of the film industry from Cate Blanchet, Elijah Wood and Viggo Mortensen to Sean Bean, Sir Ian Mckellan and Liv Tyler.

Howard Shore has composed an extra musical score to go with it. The handsomely-produced box set has six discs with the movies and six discs of special features. If all this is not enough, there is a super cool carry bag, a brilliant all-star poster and a chance to win a trip for two to New Zealand, a plasma TV or a free DVD worth Rs. 499.
