Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

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 answer my own question: Nope.

Howard Shore's website says:

23.04 Creating the LOTR Symphony DVD
New Line Home Entertainment are currently displaying the new Return of the King: Collector's Set at this years ComicCon event. The set will include the four-disc extended edition of the film, along with a Sideshow/Weta statue of Minas Tirith and a Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony DVD. The set is expeceted to go on sale in December. p.s. Apparently, I am too excited to make a correct link.

p.p.s. really really unable to correctly link, but I think it's okay now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm getting no love from amazon on the pre-order. Left my e-mail to be notified when the extended edition becomes available, though.

Thanks for the link, sumi! Want Minas Tirith. Want now.

Me too!!!

And it's not just Minas Tirith -- it's storage. So -- practical. (In case anyone needs crazy justification for purchasing the gift set.)

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

TORN also says that you can pre-order now at Amazon and I am not finding that.

I saw a link to preorder from the studio at TORN, but when I looked more carefully, it actually appeared to be an old ad for preordering TTEE. Foiled again! Perhaps the same thing happened to you with Amazon.

Thanks for the link Kate!

Those filmed but not on the dvd extras were great!

I'm so psyched for the new scenes. . . well for the most part.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

They want to play themselves in a comedy about two inept Brits on a road trip around America.

I hope they have lots of love interest.

As in third parties to fall for? Or each other?

Hey, today was the 50th anniversary of Allen & Unwin publishing the first edition of the Fellowship of the Ring in Great Britain (3500 copies.) (Found on Wizard News.)

Also, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review talks about how the LotR concerts are selling out and orchestras are being forced to add dates.
