I spent the evening watching the expanded Fellowship of the Ring. It’s going to take some time getting used to the new rhythms of the movie, but I really liked almost all the new scenes and scene extensions. The movie really does look better than the original two-disc set; the DTS soundtrack is similarly impressive. I’m half tempted to call in sick tomorrow just so I can spend all day poring over the supplemental material.All in all, an excellent birthday/Christmas present. Then again, how can it not be when my very own name is in the credits (and look who’s standing next to me!):
Contributor JFathers adds: “If you call in sick, we’ll send ‘Vinnie’ over to make sure it’s permanent.”
