I don't understand what are they trying to accomplish here. I have dvd extended versions and will most ceirtanly not buy thearetical version even though on blu-ray. Letting us wait 2 more years for extended seems to me like a commercial provocation.

I've never reviewed a movie before its release, so this is a first for me. I'm not even reviewing the movie, just the version.
I'm retired, and watching (and buying) favorite movies is an enjoyable pastime. But, having bought-for example-the first few Harry Potter movies on DVD, and then re-purchasing them on Blu-Ray pushed me near my limit of tolerance and of spending.
I'll probably watch the BR version of LOTR, but guess what, WB. I'll get them from Netflix, not provide you with another $10-$20 profit you would have made from a sale. If I'm still around when the extended set comes out, I might buy it then...
...or I might not. I'm seriously wondering if I should by any more DVDs or BRs at all. I seldom get the urge to watch a movie I own "right now." Given that, it's a far better value proposition to simply rent them.
Hmmm. Now that I've put my thoughts down in writing, I think I'll cancel the outstanding BRs I have on order from Amazon. I already have DVDs of The Wizard of Oz and Snow White. I don't suspect I'll watch them or my other BR order of the new Star Trek movie more than once or twice - certainly not more than once a year.
Thanks WB. Thinking this over, I've changed my mind on buying new disks. I have too many already, and there's no sense in getting more. My life feels greatly simplified! Thanks for the multiple versions. They guided me toward a decision I should have made years ago.

I bought both on DVD and will not buy them twice again even though I would like to have the option to watch either! These movies are awesome but clearly the marketing folk are in the camp of Mordor!

I've got to get on the bandwagon here. Pay attention New Line, we don't appreciate this. We're holding out for the proper editions, and I think you'll find this will sell poorly. Send them a message people, no more double dipping!

No fault of Amazon but this is a total rip-off by the makers.
As many, many have said on lots of reviews across the world, on the net and in other forms of media - WAIT for the fuller versions.
For crying out loud, there is LOADS of space for both versions to be incorporated to this Blu-ray disc but no, "lets rip-off the public as much as we can" is the attitude of the makers.
Its a disgraceful action on behalf of the film company to allow this to be released.
Sadly, some will still buy this rip-off - but a true fan will have better sense and wait.
AVOID NOW - and get the fuller version later.
