From my understanding, the link I posted above is the latest version. The Redux is basically a special edition of his original “The Alternative Edit” where he’s fixed a number of things pointed out on this earlier version and redone the edit with his now more polished editing skills than when he first made the edit.

Interesting to hear you didn’t like it all that much Neverar, will definitely have to give it a watch now to see how our views differ.

I’d read the book a number of times as a kid before seeing the movie as a teen. Thought the movie was pretty epic though at the same time lacking but it satisfied me enough at the time as a big screen adaptation. Having then bought the 3hr extended edition on DVD years later assuming it was the same movie and trying to show it to my girlfriend at the time (now wife - I must be an OK catch if she’s still with me after sitting / sleeping through that experience LOL) we both thought it terrible and I couldn’t even finish watching it myself. So it will be very interesting to finally watch an edit that claims to be better than both official versions. I’m actually a little excited at the prospect of maybe really liking the movie again 😃
