I just watched Fellowship and gotta say you did an amazing job. The 35mm version already looked really good but this is definitely the best way to watch the trilogy.
What would at the moment be the best versions for the extended editions? I know there is a 35mm version and regrades (like 44rh1n version) of fellowship extended, but what’s the way to go for two towers and return of the king?
At the moment I personally don’t think there is a definitive way to watch FotR Extended. As you stated there is the 35mm scan from elendil, or the 44rh1n version. DrDre has released their Dremastered edition of Part 1 of FotR Extended, but there is no Part 2 yet. I believe the majority of their focus is currently on their color grade matching algorithm 2.0, it’s honestly mind blowing based on what they have shared so far (I encourage you to check out their thread on it). Personally, it’s my pipedream to attempt to use DrDre’s new algo, once finished and shared, on the 35mm scan of FotR Extended while targeting the color grade of the DVD Extended. But as of right now this a dream that requires patience.
