Finally, for the first time, all three original theatrical versions of The Lord Of The Rings come alive in high definition Blu-ray! See the epic trilogy the way it was meant to be seen with the complete box set containing The Fellowship Of The Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return Of The King!

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy tells the story of Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood), a hobbit who battles against the Dark Lord Sauron to save his world, Middle-earth, from the grip of evil. In the films, Frodo and his fellowship of friends and allies embark on a desperate journey to rid Middle-earth of the source of Sauron's greatest strength, the One Ring -- a ring that has the power to enslave the inhabitants of Middle-earth. The trilogy tells tales of extraordinary adventures across the treacherous landscape of Middle-earth and reveals how the power of friendship, love and courage can hold the forces of darkness at bay. Beside Wood, the films star Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Cate Blanchett, John Rhys-Davies, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Orlando Bloom, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, featuring Sean Bean, and Ian Holm, with Andy Serkis as Gollum. The films also star Marton Csokas, Craig Parker and Lawrence Makaoare.

The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring - In a time before history, in a place called Middle-earth, a dark and powerful lord has brought together the forces of evil to destroy its cultures and enslave all life caught in his path. Sauron's time has come and he needs only one small object - a Ring that has been lost for centuries - to snuff out the light of civilization and cover the world in darkness...

The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers - The fellowship is now divided with Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen), Legolas (Orlando Bloom) and Gimli (John-Rhys Davies) helping to restore some order to the land of King Theodon (Bernard Hill), whose mind has been poisoned by the machinations of Grima Wormtongue (Brad Dourif). Wormtongue is a secret emissary of wizard Saruman (Christopher Lee), now ready to unleash his army of the night on Middle-Earth. Meanwhile, Frodo (Elijah Wood) is falling deeper under the dreaded influence of The Ring, as he journeys with Sam (Sean Astin) towards Mordor...

The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King - The remnants of the Fellowship marshal their forces for one final attack as Hobbits Sam (Astin) and Frodo (Wood) are led by Gollum to Mount Doom in the hope of destroying the One Ring forever.

Thanks Basquille. i was hoping for the the BR version to have the book ending rather than the theatre one. I still can't understand why they changed it. Ah, well.

The extended editions will be out on blu-ray some time next year hopefully.

What's the walkers crisp code? is there a general one?

Kenny_D

Not a general one. You have to sign up for the rainy day promotion, fill out a few questions and you'll get 2 points. You then use the two points to redeem a 10% code. Ordered this morning with quidco for an extra £1.15 cashback so esentially free delivery too

Dades

Have a few Blu Rays waiting to be watched - just need to get a player for Christmas!

Very tempted, but will probably wait for the extended versions since I have to wait anyway.

Just to clarify - this does not have the extended/extra scenes?

Think I may have to wait for the extended one - any chance it'll be out before Christmas?

Nope, it's the theatrical version.

What's the big problem - copy the extended editions on Blu Ray disks and release them!

Or don't ever release them, jack up the price of the normal version, and then watch everyone that didn't jump at this BA eat their own face!

Basq

I'm definitely in the minority here but I bought the theatrical editions on DVD on release (paid €35 for 'Fellowship Of The Ring' alone in Xtra-Vision).

I've a copy of the extended editions also, but I always go back to the theatrical.

Soarer

Mine arrived today. Thanks to one and all!:D

mailrewop

Snake Plisken

Mine arrived today as well, was a bit worried as the Jiffy bag was torn but all seems intact

Basq

Kenny_D

PWEI

Ordered mine on Friday and they arrived yesterday. That's even faster than amazon. Thanks a lot!

Snake Plisken

I was actually surprised today that I got a parcel from Amazon.co.uk using the supersaver option and I only ordered on Sunday! Now that was fast!
