I too am dissapointed about this news but then I'm not sure why I automatically assumed they would release the EE versions right away. I'm doubly annoyed because I know I'm going to buy whatever they release due to my being such a fan of the movies which means I'll have another two sets of...

Thanks fellas, It's as I thought; It's just that I've had a hard time convincing others otherwise so your input has been useful. I too have the 360 add-on and I'm well pleased with the picture quality. PS does anyone have any links to similar comparisons between the SD and HD versions...

Hello folks, I've heard it said that there is very little difference between the quality of an upscaled DVD on a good player (such as the Denon 1930) and that delivered by a HD disc (whether it be a HD-DVD or a Blu-ray). I struggle to see how this can be so since I always wander where the...

Nice to see some more 'Unbreakable' fans out there; one of my all-time favourite films, and the biggest reason I love Bruce Willis.

Thanks for the pics of Minas Tirith Kami. That's the first I've seen of it - looks great!

RIP Mr.Brando "Look how they massacred my boy..."

Another "Moulin Rouge" hater here...

Regarding James Horner's score, I thought the most effective use of music was during the Hector/Achilles fight; the sparse texture and simple repeated drum rhythm kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. Brilliant! Jefferson, I don't remember the "Perfect Storm" soundtrack, but the main...

I got my Ringwraith on Steed today. Hurrah! The was a consignment of 6 pieces and the first two I looked at had some slightly sloppy paintwork in places. The third was OK though. It is now the pride of my collection (Saruman with Palintir a close second). It has a real presence and I'm...

Thanks for the info Iain. I'm comforted to know it's not just me. Well I remedied the situation today by buying the code 1 Extended Edition and it sounds fine. (It was also a good excuse for me to get the Argonath sculptures too!) I'd never heard of this pitch-correction thing, but I'll...

One place I notice the 'blips' is in the moments after Gandalf's fall when there's a very pure vocal line hitting those hight notes. It's not hugely noticable and I didn't notice it until I got my home theatre system, but now it really spoils that beautiful moment. I notice it also at scene...

My last few viewings of the PAL DVD of Fellowship of the Ring Extended Edition have been spoiled by some slight audio distortion. I notice it most in the dialog, especially when the letter "s" is spoken. There are also some small 'blips' in the audio tracks at times. I hear these both on the...

My Ringwraith on Steed is arriving here in Singapore tomorrow... can't wait either!

Thanks Nick; Gandalf on Shadowfax looks really spectacular!

Hey Kami; thanks for the link to the Morgul Lord statue; I've been waiting eagerly for a glimse of this one. I too find the evil characters more appealing (have pre-ordered the Wraith on Steed). The Gandalf on Shadowfax might tempt me to the light side though...:)

Mark_vdH; The Last March of the Ents music is on the complete trilogy soundtrack; it's about 2min 15secs into track no.17 "Isengard Unleashed". It's one of my favourite passages from the score too. Holadem; I know what you mean about the Lighting of the Beacons music followed by the Gondor...
