Hello! I am new to this site, but have been researching on this topic and found this thread super interesting so far.
I am not fortunate enough to have seen the original 35mm screening of the Lord of the Rings so I do not know how the film looked like as they originally intended, but I do love the extended edition of the film. The images of the visuals shown appeared far superior than any of the digital releases that I have watched, and combined with the contents added in the extended edition of the film would definitely redefine the film for me.
I am really looking forward to this project, and if possible, the other two sequels as well!
Although, I am curious about the progress of this project and if there are any releases to date. I would appreciate if anyone can update me on this.
Thank you for your hard work and hope for a smooth success!
