It was great...again! Overall, I had a great experience enjoying BOFA on blu ray for the first time. Such a beautiful looking film. It was fun to really be able to soak in all the attention to detail with the sets and effects. Sure, I'm buying the EE in November...but I see buying this blu ray as another vote of confidence to the studio and filmmakers. It's my small way of saying thanks to the hundreds who toiled for years bringing these great movies to life so I can sit in my chair after a long day and travel to Middle Earth. One last time? I still think we will see more ME movies! But for now this lovely blu ray will tide me over until November! Money well spent!! :)

since I don't want to cry like that again, and since it's been about a month and a half since I last saw BoFA, I know I'm going to be crying bucket loads. Maybe I'll watch North & South instead, since at least it has a happier ending (and a little romance doesn't hurt). I bought the 3D Blu-ray/DVD combo pack on Tuesday, but I still haven't gotten up the nerve to watch it again (I'm not sure if I ever want to see it again, and not because I hate it, but because of the emotions it envokes. Even the ending of AUJ doesn't do that, which is why I list AUJ before BoFA, right after DoS, which is still my favorite of the trilogy, since I could basically live on DoS).

.....if you weren't so obsessed with Thorin...... ;)
"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
"Do you wish me a good morning, or do you mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not, or that you feel good this morning, or that it is a morning to be good on?"
"Thorin and Company at your service!"
"Stand by the grey stone when the thrush knocks, and the setting sun with the last light of Durin's Day will shine upon the keyhole."
"A box without hinges, key, or lid / Yet golden treasure inside is hid."
"I come from under the hill, and under hills and over hills my path has led. And through the air. I am he that walks unseen."
"My armor is like tenfold shields, my teeth are like swords, my claws spears, the shock from my tail a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!"
"If more of us valued your ways - food and cheer above hoarded gold - it would be a merrier world."
"You're a very fine person, Mr. Baggins, and I'm very fond of you, but you're only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."

I've watched it twice on blu ray already. Between now and November? Ha, I'll wear out the disc! Probably at least once a month I'll pop it in the player and check it out. And then the cool thing is that I'll know the movie so well that the extended edition scenes will really stand out. I watched Fellowship in the theater and then bought the extended edition. I couldn't remember which scenes were new as I had only seen the film once, and a year earlier!

Or at least, how I will see it when WB deign to release it here! 
I will watch the Theatrical version a lot once I have it, to really get to know it and take in all the details. That makes the extended version so much more exciting - suddenly seeing more of something that you already know and love. I've done that with all the films since the EE of Fellowship, and look forward to it.
