Let’s move on to talk about the EXTRAS in this Combo pack. This is a beautiful film, and well worth seeing in such gorgeous definition.īy now, though, you’ve seen the movie, and you know what parts you do or don’t like! (I’m still baffled by ‘Japanese horror movie’ Galadriel, and can’t help wondering if she’s just there by way of a ‘nose-thumbing’ to all the fans who hated ‘nuclear Galadriel’….!) Suffice to say, the film looks stunning and has all the ups and downs it had on the big screen. (Even some of the details we perhaps don’t want to see – such as the too obviously repeated figures in the various armies – stood out!) Moments in the extras, where clips from The Lord of the Rings trilogy are juxtaposed with parts of The Hobbit films, showed just how very far home video release has come in a decade. Every detail of that stunning Lake-town set, and that incredible, terrifying dragon, was clear to see. I watched the Blu-ray version, and marvelled again at the beauty of home video these days. Let’s talk first about the picture quality of the film. I was thrilled to get my hands on a review copy of the Blu-ray Combo pack, which includes copies of the movie on Blu-ray, on DVD and a Digital HD copy – as well as various extras. Many fans, of course, like to wait for the Extended Edition release before purchasing a copy but speaking personally, my collection isn’t complete unless I have the theatrical cut as well. (It’s been available in digital version in many countries since March 3rd but from Tuesday you can get your hands on a ‘hard’ copy.) In the USA, from March 24th, the last in Peter Jackson’s Middle-earth movies will be available for you to take home.
