Lord of the Rings, The Motion Picture Trilogy (Extended & Theatrical)(4K Ultra HD + Digital) [Blu-ray]

When buying the Lord of the Rings trilogy I can’t recommend enough buying them on Blu Ray. These films are timeless and I can rewatch them again and again, this box set is ideal.

All three Lord Of The Rings Movies in stunning Blu-Ray sound and picture quality all together in a boxset for just over ten pounds OK these aren't the Director's Extended Cuts they are the cinema versions, and only come with a single disc of extras for each movie but for the price this set is superb value for money. An undisputed five star essential purchase. Superb.

I felt compelled to write a brief review in support of the theatrical edition Blu Ray of the LOTR trilogy. There seems to be more whinging about this edition from people who haven't even purchased it than any other film. (only Bladerunner coming close !) I even delayed buying this edition because of all the bad reviews, waiting for the extended version to go down to a sensible price. Well the extended version trilogy still hasn't gone down to a sensible price and at less than a tenner for the shorter theatrical versions ( a mere 9 hours !) for 3 blu ray films and 3 extras DVDs I thought what the heck I can't go wrong! I think the whingers have forgotten what brilliant films these are , they were good enough at the cinema and are still great to watch again and again. Of course I have the extended versions on DVD so can watch the 10 1/2 hours for all 3 if I want to, and to think I paid over £20 each for those, so didn't want to spend another £40+ for the blu ray copies. From a technical point of view the Blu ray copies are better than the up scaled DVDs, but with less layer break glitches and the whole of each film on one disk ! Sound quality is significantly better but that's just my opinion and picture quality is superb, even on the Fellowship of the Ring. Maybe the techies should stop looking at the screen with a microscope and just sit back and enjoy. Stop the moaning and remember if like me you were lucky enough to see the original LOTR trilogy in the cinema it was probably the best 3 movies you will ever have seen on the big screen . (with the exception of Bladerunner of course !! yes even the 1982 version!) What other films of this magnificence can you get on Blu Ray for £3 per movie ?! BEST VFM so far this year, money well spent in my opinion.! Get them while you can at this ridiculous price.
