More character development, more humor, and more warmth.  It just added to the whole experience of the film.<\/p>\n<p>I especially loved what it added to the relationships built in the story.  You understand more about the<br \/>Frodo\/Bilbo, Gimli\/Galadriel relationships, not to mention others.  You can feel the intimacy building in the Fellowship in this film version.<\/p>\n<p>I especially loved the Lothlorien sequence in the extended edition.  It gave more of the impression I<br \/>had from the book than the theatrical version did. Lorien felt less spooky and surreal.  It still carried a majestic aura but felt warmer and more inviting. The elves (especially Galadriel) were able to show a personable, caring side.  The gift giving scenes were great!<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t write everything I could say but just sum it up as &#8220;Thanks PJ for giving us this version&#8221; and to<br \/>those that are debating on the purchase of this version &#8220;It is so worth it!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazing is all I can say!
