The Fellowship of the Ring

Not seen in theaters, this unique version of the epic adventure features over 30 minutes of new and extended scenes integrated into the film by the director. In every aspect, the extended-edition DVD The Fellowship of the Ring blows away the theatrical-version. No one who cares at all about the film should ever need to watch the original version again. There's more character development, and more background. Extremely useful are the chapter menus that indicate which scenes are new or extended.
