Special Edition DVD Preview....

Ok, this really can't get lost in the mix of the other thread cuz if you watched the Preview for the Special Edition DVD there are many awesome things coming!!

Huorns!!! That's all I need to say about them

Boromir is in it, during a flashback sequence involving Faramir and Denethor. Also, with Boromir rejoicing about retaking Osgiliath, and then of course with his horn being found cloven in two.

More scenes with Gollum, always a plus!

Aragorn and Gandalf talking about how Sauron is fearful.

Sam and Frodo climbing down the mountain wall with the elvin rope.

The drinking of the Ent draughts

The burial of Theodred.

Gandalf riding to find the Rohirrim.

Flotsam & Jetsam...


I am so excited about this as well, because from the preview it looks like there are scenes in there that many of us thought PJ just forgot about, but I guess not. I definitely can't wait for this!!

In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.'

'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin

Yes, I think this overview of the interactions between Denethor, Boromir, and Faramir will be great and possibly shed some light as to why Faramir came across as he did in the movie. Anyone remember Celeborn theatrical version vs Celeborn Extended DVD version? It added alot of depth.

I too look forward to the entdraught scenes, and also of the scenes not glimpsed in the teaser on this DVD.
c'mon November!

I'm absolutely stoked about this. This may well address every single issue I have about the theatrical cut (just as FOTR did in pretty much every respect).

I mean... HUOOOOOOOOOOOOOORNS!

Also, I'm glad to see that many of the scenes we saw in the original March 2002 TTT preview at the end of FOTR are being put back. ("So Gandalf Greyhame thinks he has found the lost king of Gondor..." / "Sauron is not so mighty that he is above fear; he fears you, Aragorn" / et al.) I wonder if we'll see the bit in Rivendell where Arwen says, "You have the gift of foresight, tell me what you have seen!"

Now, as for the whole "Flotsam and Jetsam" chapter being put back in - well that takes some weight off ROTK. I don't think we'll see Merry and Pippin smoking Southfarthing weed when the others arrive, though - without the Scouring of the Shire it doesn't make sense.

HUOOOOOOOOOOOORNS!

Sorry to drop in suddenly and be a boor, but I couldn't help saying "I told you so!" I started a thread way back called things you hope will be in the extended cut. I put entdraughts and the shattered horn at the top of my list. ka-ching!

November. I waaaaannnnttt iiiiittt nooooowwww!!!

I love the clips from the entdraugh (spl?) scene, as well as the stuff with Boromir, Faramir and daddy. The floatsam and and jetsam stuff looks cool, and I love the part in the book with the elven rope, and am glad to see it's gonna be in the EE (though, does anybody else think that Elijah Wood's screams are a little silly sounding?).

Me CANNOT wait.
