What he did say though was that he didn’t know why they had done it and stated if they wanted to know the reason for it they would probably have to speak to New Line or Peter Jackson.
The main vibe I got from it was that he couldn’t really comment but he seemed really disappointed, I really felt for him. He has also just stated he won’t be going to the premiere, so it would appear he was cut without being asked, he seems greatly dissapointed. He said there is no point for me or Brad Dourif to go to the premiere we’re not in the movie! Its a sad state of affairs he seems as shocked as many of us are.

Jeff writes: It seems that the two stores you listed earlier are now in fact out of all copies they had, probably due to your posts earlier. I found a place on West 33 Street between 6th and Broadway that had both the Gift Set for $70 and the regular 4-disc set for $37.99. When I returned from my trek to the city, I was notified by my brother that he had seen these also available at Tower Video on Route 17 in Paramus, and at Compact Disc World, also on Route 17 in Paramus.
