Any favorite scene recommendations from LOTR for both video and sound? I watched part of Two Towers last night, and expect that ROTK is waiting in my mailbox now.

Its difficult for me to pick a favourite scene in LOTR ROTK...the whole movie is quite simply amazing.
I haven't watch it for about a year now, I have had the urge for a VERY long time, but I am saving the experience for when I have a full blown theatre (should be within the next 6 months)

Well, if you are talking about ANY of LOTR movies, Bilbo's birthday party with the fireworks gives your surrounds a good workout and an amazing imersive scene in Fellowship of the ring.
It also has a fair bit of rear channel action (the 6th channel).

Not first time overall, just first time since I got the new TV a couple of months back. First time for all 3 was the day they came out in theatres. I don't want to watch too much of them right now. I am planning a Saturday in January to have a couple of friends over to do a marathon session of all 3 in one day, so I don't want to water down the anticipation and excitement by watching them before that. There are 3 of us so far. I don't really want more then 4 or 5, just because of optimal viewing of the TV/sound setup.

Yes 
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

Ok I see. I have yet to watch all three in a single day. Sounds like fun.
I never saw the trilogy in the theatre...and didn't have much interest in it(thought it was stupid  ) until I happened to see a few scenes of The Two Towers on dvd. I was hooked after that!

Well with a set of ears like that, I thought the movie would be of substantial interest to you...
Seriously now, are you joking about not seeing the film? I guess it's not for everyone.
