  • Putting this video together took an unbelievably long time. Researching, finding all the material from its original sources, and editing took forever as well. Please help spread the word and share this video with as many fans as possible!
  • @Hashakgig
    We need an Ultimate Edition. I don't care if it will be 4 or 5 hours long. Edit: I love how we are getting more and more insane with the hours. From my low ball 4-5h to 10h to 40h-50h and eventually 1300h. I think we can all agree on one thing. We want more no matter how long.
  • Seeing Gil-galad's death would've shown the audience that not only does Sauron have the ability to kill his enemies using only the heat from his hands, but that he actually prefers to use that method, at least to the people he really doesn't like. Which would answer a lot of questions regarding why Sauron reached down towards Isildur, allowing the ring to be cut from his finger, rather than just finishing him with his mace. Something that wouldn't be obvious to anyone not into the deep lore.
  • This trilogy truly is the gift that keeps on giving Makes me wonder how much different, and better the hobbit would have been if the studio and their execs had given it an equally good of a chance and amount of time to be developed
  • @WMfin
    "..if there's enough interest from people." How do we tell him? There was this petition I already signed.. Peter, do it, I will PAY to see more!
  • Dude, these are insanely interesting unseen shots from the movie! Thanks for going into detail on each of them too. LOTR has so much content. Very cool!
  • I remember watching Return of the King in the cinema 2003 and praying in the last scene” please never end this movie”😄
  • things im willing to buy again and again : skyrim and peter jackson's lord of the ring
  • @Kynokefalos
    18:04 Scary shots of ghosts faces, hideous goblin faces and Gollum scream face YES, a tiny jet of blood NO. I was traumatized with your movies, PJ
  • @mathijnd
    I would love to see the original prologue. It sounds so cool. I also dont mind Galadrial being the narrator. But it is a bit weird since she isn’t in the trilogy a lot. I think Gandalf or Frodo narrating would make mote sense but i still like Galadriel doing it so it doesn’t really matter to me.
  • He didn't go with Elrond & Co. He led them. I believe that Elrond was his second.
  • @oOKomuiOo
    Still sad that Maxi Mark didn't end up in the movies as Gil Galad!
  • I wished they'd just make it into a tv series for each film and get it all up on screen for us all who want to see it all....
  • @m_f_luder
    A lot of these scenes are alternatives to scenes that made it in, meaning that they'd have to remove stuff that we're familiar with in order to use them, which is probably the reason that they didn't make it into the extended edition the first time around. I think it would be cool if they did an R-rated version of the extended editions that included more of the bloody shots. I don't think adding gory scenes would necessarily be an improvement, but replacing kid friendly fighting scenes with more realistic alternative versions might. The absence of blood always seems odd considering the number of characters we see getting killed with swords and axes up close. It makes you aware when you're watching it that it's been intentionally toned down.
  • @pixiesinc743
    - Can we get a extended edition of the lord of the rings? - You already have one - What about a SECOND extended edition?
  • @acharley
    I'd love to see more of these for the other two movies of the lotr trilogy and hobbit trilogy if possible, I love this channel 🙏
  • @camotophat
    Do it. Make a mini series out of it. Everyone would watch it, everyone would pay for it.
  • I love that you used the Official Fan Club Magazine as a source of inspiration information (among else) ! Such an underrated gem !!!
