When you do a search, always best to use the 'Advanced Search' and then choose the option 'Search Titles Only' and finally use simple word like Lord or... Rings

Must be close to get some kind of information on the release then now its on zavvi aswell. I normally wouldnt consider at £20 but they are my favourite films so if they arnt jumbo and have good artwork ill bite.

The listing states that it will have five discs. If accurate that would, of course, make it a Jumbo.

Blarg...a Jumbo should only be warranted if all 3 movies were in there, making 6 discs.

5 Discs huh? Bit more then just the 2 extras discs, so maybe it'll also include the theatrical version as the 5th disc too? Either that, or maybe its a double play...

It will be the same five discs from the boxset I imagine:

Pity they are likely to be DVD disc. Have the extras ever been released on blu ray?

Pity they don't put the extra's on blu ray now like they did with Blade Runner 30th Anniversary Collection.

Don't think they have, since I don't think any new extras were made for the blu rays. So, cheaper to just sling in the existing DVDs I guess.

Ahh well, maybe next time if they make a 3D version....or the next format. XD

I wanted these on steelbook, jumbo means instant no buy

 

[zesty]

Surely they must realise that anyone who is going to buy this would already have the DVD extras discs!
Guess I'll have some slimming down to do again

 

[Sixth]

Inside art and not jumbo, I'm in

+1 be a good way of slimming it down to a normal size and then wouldn't be need for a jumbo imho.

just shame they not using larger discs prototyped that have done best size yet 500GB and that was back in august 2008 take it cost still too expensive? but has been 5 years now!

Then sell the old DVD sets? Must admit, I was skipping the boxset for the very reason and had planned to go with the normal seperate extended blus will just the movie, but as always, steelbooks change anything. XD

I dream of a release having a slipcover that looks like the dvd releases of the extended editions

I know, they were so freaking sexy, please let this be...

 

[yeslek]

Any news if it's a jumbo or not??

If it's G2 im in. If its jumbo its an easy pass

With the gold box being so cheap now and so packed with extra content there is no way Im double dipping no matter how nice the steelbook is, I waited months and months for the gold box to come down in price and at £25 its an absolute steal (no pun intended lol)

I vote these covers, without the blu banner.

Ya know, those would make it a hard pass, but as is, I'm just about leaning towards not bothering with these.
The price and artwork would have to be stunning to change my mind as I disposed jumbo ameray/steels so much

I dream of a release having a slipcover that looks like the dvd releases of the extended editions

now those slip/sleeve things were GORGEOUS!
I can guarantee I'd cave on the steel if they used those book style artwork's....even on jumbos
