Some friends and myself are having the traditional “Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Marathon” again this monday, so for this I am making a rough 10hour movie cut.

its nothing too artistic like most of the fan edits, mainly just rearranging the endings, beginnings and moving a few scenes around to make the flow a little smoother.

so far i havnt found anyone else doing this, but quite a few of us have been fantasizing about it for a while, so i wonder if anyone had any ideas for any additions?

so far I have:

removed the final “farewell” scenes from FOTR and TTT, in exchange for their repsective “hello” scenes
the opening scene with gollum from ROTK has been shortened and slipped into the beginning
the film titles, ie “Fellowship of the Ring” etc have been removed (sadly just cut the footage out)
moved gandalf vs balrog form the beginning of TTT to his little speech when he appears later in the same movie
moved some of the arwen scenes around
moved gollums transformation to a later point during his speech during TTT

thats it off the top of my head.

if anyone is interested i will try and upload it as a torrent later on. its really just designed for a days slobbing around and will rarely be viewed (for health reasons!😛)
