My wallet is destined to be empty. Last weekend, New Line announced the specs on this December’s release of the four-disc The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Extended Edition. The official movie site has the details, and DVD Answer has screen grabs from the movie and the DVD menus. The Extended Edition contains fifty minutes of added scenes, plus two discs of supplemental material on the making of the film. It will be available on December 14, and can be pre-ordered starting October 1.
Insuring that my bank account must remain flatlined every December, Topps is releasing another Lord of the Rings collectible card series. Once again the series will feature autograph and memorabilia cards, this time covering the entire trilogy.
Note to all family members who may read this: sadly, yes, I will be handing out IOUs again this Christmas.
