I don't know about the EE version, but the regular has been posted on Amazon for a while. The latest rumor I've heard for it is it will be out in time for the Christmas shopping season.

I guess I am the only one looking forward to the lossless audio \:\) . What audio format are they using Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master?

I usally find these formats to have better overall clarity and superior dynamic range. The surrounds seem to come alive more too . If there is one movie that can take full advantage of the transfer to Blu-ray and high-resolution audio is this LOTR series.

One ring. Three movies.

I got the email from amazon today as well. I won't be buying the theatrical versions though. I guess I have to keep waiting. Bummer.

The extended versions made already long movies, more too long. I'll probably be cool with the theater cuts.

I’m usually disappointed with extended versions of just about any movie. LOTR’s extended versions are the exception. I much prefer the extended version over the theatrical.

I enjoy the series, but wouldn’t consider myself a fan. All my friends are though, so I’ve sat through them several times. They’ve all been dieing to see them on BluRay. Oh boy….here I go again.
