Believe it or not, Ron, zero.The important question is this: how many of those are concerts?
See, that's the beauty of acronyms. TLA could just as easily signify Two Letter Acronym. DoD is fond of Twenty-seven Letter Acronyms.
Carl, they do not. Perhaps that will come with the EE uber set. Meanwhile, there's a box set "complete recordings" for each movie, with not only the soundtrack on 4 CD's, but the complete pieces as written by Shore, on DVD-A (DD Surround and DD stereo). I have ROTK and hearing the full versions of the lighting of the beacons and the Rohirrim charge is well worth the price of admission.Are they including the multi channel soundtrack in hi rez as well separate from the movie? I love the soundtrack to LOTR.
For those who may not own the set, Amazon is selling the individually packaged LOTR Blu-rays for $7.99 each. Hard to say "no" to those kind of bargain bin prices.
http://digitalbits.com/#mytwocentsWhat's more, our sources are NOW telling us that WHV (and their now in-house New Line label) is ALSO planning to release Peter Jackson's long-awaited The Lord of the Rings Trilogy: Extended Editions on Blu-ray sometime this year. No kidding. We suspect that, now that The Hobbit films are finally about to begin filming, the studio is eager to get more product on store shelves to keep the franchise fresh in the minds of fans. The Extended Rings films on BD are the obvious choice for this year. Farther down the line, of course, there will be the obvious Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D versions of The Hobbit films, and sooner or later an "ultimate" box set of all the films with all new extras custom created by Jackson. Anyway, our sources tell us to expect some kind of official news on all this ....... from the studio in the next several weeks.
I bought these Blu-Rays from Amazon. There is a lot of hand-wringing on the Amazon site because these are not the extended editions. I've seen the extended editions on regular DVD. They're fine but I don't really care if the additional scenes are on the Blu-Rays. The movies are long enough already and can stand on their own.
Same here. I won't be double-dipping with the Extended Edition either.
Good Morning John. I was able to purchase each of the Blu-rays from Amazon when they were $7.99 each. I like the extended versions of the films much more than the Theatrical Releases because they provid much information that better tells the story. So, for me and having paid so little for the individual releases (and even though I have the extended versions on DVD) I plan to purchase the extended Blu-ray versions once they are released.

For those awaiting the EE, the trilogy is now up for preorder @ Amazon. Release date 2011/2012 and details are still somewhat vague, though it's been posted that video codec is MPEG-4 AVC, whereas the theatrical release version was VC-1.
The ultimate extended release is the original book!
