Our bedroom has a bigscreen TV (54 or 56 inches...can't remember) with Yamaha digital receiver, and a Bose surround sound speaker system...I even crawled in the attic and mounted the rear speakers on the wall behind our bed (near the ceiling). The front speakers are on Bose stands in the corners facing the bed. It's not quite theatre quality but I can make my wife's crystal figurines move...hehe . After all, fantasy, sci-fi (etc.) movies are just about as important as SE 4 .
Can we visit? I'll book our aifair right now.

Got DVD 1 Last year, Will get DVD 2 this year and will see 3 after a Xmas

Still haven't seen the extended Two Towers dvd I bought recently, but I'm going to see the movie in about 2 hours from now. Can't wait. It's supposed to be the best of the three, and I truly hope it is.

From Penny-Arcade.com:

You may be wondering whether or not this is a good movie. You want to know if the hopes you have invested in it will be dashed, your good heart trampled as it was when you left Episode One - gasping at the naked contempt displayed by George Lucas.

I predict that you will be knocked clean on your ***, in the absence of mercy, pounded by raw craft and quality for the film's over three hour duration. I liked Two Towers well enough, preferred Fellowship, you know, but it'll do. It was better than jabbing your hand into a box of used medical sharps. Return of the King, by comparison, is every element executed with laser-guided precision.

well i just watched the extended Version of the two towers.

All I have to say is that it was a completely different movie. ( i saw the other Version 2 times )

I thought the extended Version was beautiful. I cannot wait to see #3 but I am looking more forward to seeing the extended Version this time next year.
