Extended Epic

From The One Ring.Net, this little tidbit for fans of the recently-concluded Lord of the Rings Trilogy of films. Peter Jackson has apparently finished the edit of the extended version of The Return of the King. So, how does the final, final, final, more epicker cut of the finale stand?

FOUR HOURS AND TEN MINUTES!!! WOOHOO!!!

That's almost an hour (50 minutes) of unseen, new scenes. This should include the fate of Saruman (Christopher Lee), more battle scenes at Pelennor, The duel between Gandalf and the Witch King, Faramir and Eowyn at the House of Healing, the Mouth of Sauron (whom you can see in the ROTK game for the PS2 and Xbox... UGLY sucker...) and more.

I hope though that these rumored scenes prove UNTRUE...

Denethor's twelve-course meal...

King Aragorn singing... and then getting EVERYONE else to start clapping and dancing to do a finale production number (complete with a can-can).

MORE climbing up Mount Doom...

Heh...

Well, at least movie fans have something to look forward to at the end of the year. Heh.
