Joel writes: Check out these review comments from people on Amazon regarding the blu-ray release of the theatrical editions. There’s a story there how, in this economy, people are angry at New Line for doing the ‘double dipping’ by releasing the theatrical first, and the extended later. It has forced the trilogy down to a 2-star average rating. I’ve not seen something quite like this before – love of the film, but such anger over a release/marketing policy. There’s 34 pages of >90% bitter reviews.
Xoanon here: I’m not too sure how much of ‘New Line Cinema’ exists, so venting to them may not help. LOTR is now a property of Warner Bros., and I assume the release schedule is of their doing. One sure fire way to get their attention is to visit this link and send them a kindly worded email expressing your disappointment. You never know, fans made LOTR a hit, and perhaps we can make a difference here as well.

Mark writes: Last Sunday I went to see the 21st Century Symphony Orchestra perform the Two Towers in sync with the film, in Lucerne in Switzerland. As with the Fellowship last year it is quite a surreal experience, you don’t know whether to watch the film the orchestra or the choir. The German subtitles add to the distractions. It was a wonderful performance, to my ears not a note wrong. I saw the matinee performance, there was going to be another performance in the evening, that is over 6 hours playing in one day, I am sure that those involved slept well.
