I managed to watch this Dremastered 4k release and it’s incredibly better than what we got from the original studio IMO.

I saw the theatrical edition in theaters when released in 2001. I aged a lot, so it may seem hazardous to say that the Dremastered release is the most faithful version concerning the colour grading, but that’s clearly the feeling I had: no exagerated or oversaturated colours, no ‘smelly’ CGI feedback, soft and respectful grain. It just looks… incredibly real… while I have to admit it is very subjective when we are talking about a fantasy universe.

I also saw TTT & RotK and they seem to be a little bit sharper, but that doesn’t minimize the fact that this version of FotR is simply the best version I’ve ever seen at home up to now.

Thanks DrDre! And thanks to the kind people who considered sharing the download links (beware, they are HUGE files! From 80 to 90+ GB each).
