They had to replace the ears daily (sometimes more than once). Gelatin sort of stuff, melted easily.

All Right!

Thanks, I will look for it. I have the VHS tapes I recorded, but I have less fear DVDs will go bad.

Cricket fans did the orc cries during helms' deep? I will have to watch that bit again and see if I can hear some of them pesky uruks shouting "Howzat" or "Good shot Quentin" or something similar..

Cricket? more painful than having your haemmorroids caught round the U-bend of the loo

It's 3:43 and totals four discs, 2 for the actual movie and 2 for the features.

Let me just say that the feautres in the extended editions alone are worth the price of the DVDs.

ok, thanks.

it's about the same for the other 2?

FoTR EE is 3:20ish and we won't know about the RoTK EE until it comes out later this year. The theatrical Version is 3:12 and rumours have the EE around 4!

right, thanks.

OK, here's a special LOTR treat for anyone with the bandwidth for 300 megs of download:

1- Go to http://compactiongames.about.com/gi/...p%3Fsection=et and download Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory for free. Activision is giving it away for free, so this isn't piracy. Install the game and the patch.
2- Go to http://www.thegameserver.com/et/downloads/etmain/ and download the mml-helm's deep map. Rename the file extension from .pk3.zip to .pk3 and copy it to your game's ETMAIN dir.
3-Run around a beautifully modelled (but not yet entirely complete) map of Helm's Deep, exactly as depicted in the film. It's all there: you can blow up the walls, climb the tower, run around the keep, slide down Legolas' surfing-stairs... every detail is there. The only shame is that you are fighting in WW2 uniforms, taking down the main gate with a tank rather than a batering ram and chucking grenades at Saruman's forces but it's well worth a look nonetheless.
