They'll get the EE out for Christmas. I have no doubt of that. And if we're lucky they'll institute the Annual Extended Trilogy Theatrical Marathon so that every Christmas we may return to Middle Earth on the big screen for 11 hours at a time.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

I'd love to see small theaters doing this all over the country. The Brew 'n View here in Chicago would be the perfect place for it. They already show the first two films separately as midnight flicks quite often.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yes, yes, yes! Please? I'll be very very good every year if I can have this for Christmas.
Also? From the glimpses I got Oscar night of TOR.n pin I was pretty sure it had the White Tree of Gondor on it, and wondered what organisation had lisence to use it.

Yep, the White Tree is on it. The current People magazine--it's in the break room, that's the only reason I read it--has a very nice closeup of it.

For you folks who didn't buy the theatrical releases, New Line is releasing a boxed set of them on May 25th, but there will be no new extra material.

I can't even.
I should point out that this isn't the all singing, all dancing boxset that is rumoured for a release next year and/or beyond. It is instead a simple repackaging of the existing two disc theatrical editions. No new extra material will be included.
Italics mine. I immediately thought, did they get that Whedon guy in for a last-minute touchup?

I loved that too -- all singing, all dancing, all naked, all gay -- that's for the 5 year anniversary, right?

Here's another recap of the The One Party but it comes with soundfiles of JR-D, DM and of BB singing "Jean".

Oddly, Decypher is doing cards for characters not in the movies including:
Goldberry
Radagast the Brown
Glorfindel
TORN also mentions Tom Bombadil and Elrond's sons as having cards.
