Is The Lord of the Rings Extended Edition on Blu-Ray?

Yes there are plans for the extended edition to be released on Blu-ray (amazon.com/Rings-Trilogy-Extended-Editio...) As for the extension of the movies, I think its a great way of giving die-hard fans something to watch (rather than just watching the regular movies). For everybody else, it's probably a bit too long.

A - To me it is because I like to watch movies at home on the biggest possible screen at the highest possible resolution. I still have the DVD editions - which I'm keeping because I like the artwork - and the quality gain on the Blu is significant. Q - Could this edition be viewed as 'the gold standard'?

It has the extended cuts at the highest resolution with the best sound and the most extensive collection of special features. Q - How many Blu-ray discs are in the box? A - There are SIX Blu-ray discs.

The additional 9 'extras' or 'bonus' discs are DVDs. Q - Are the movies delivered on one disc each? Like the DVD extended edition, the movies are delivered on 2 discs each.

Q - Why aren't the movies delivered on one Blu-ray disc each? A - Most Blu-ray players can only read single layer (25GB) and dual layer discs (50GB). Each of the Extended Edition movies require more than 50GB.

Compressing them to 'under 50GB' would have degraded the quality of the picture and sound track. Q - Is the audio superior to the DVD editions? A - Yes, the movies sound track is DTS-HD 6.1 MA.

Q - Are there alternate soundtracks?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
