lotr-extended......

ok, so most of us sat through all 4 hours of the extended version last night.....and such extra scenes!.......the best was the one with gimli and legolas in the great hall of rohan...during the big memorial celebration.....they are having a 2-person drinking contest......and as gmili is falling backwards off his chair from too many mugs of ale, legolas comments that he feels a slight tingle in his fingers......and then proclaims...'game over'...it was great fun......the romance between farimir and eowyn is really fleshed out int he extended version.....and includes their time at the healing place as well as a scene after the rohan feast where eowyn professes her love to aragorn only to have him turn her down.....so does peter jackson have any more unused clips.......so that he could release the even longer extended versions of each film in the trilogy........maybe call it the directors uncut version or some such...the exhaustive version......i would be a sucker for it......i can't seem to get enough.......happily we have so many new movies on hand after christmas that i will not be watching all 12 hours of extended versions any time soon.....but that day will come....maybe i will save for my next snow/ice day.......oh how i love public health..........
