Got a question. Is there even a 35mm film print of The Fellowship of the Ring Extended Edition? All I heard since I was a little kid at the age of 7 to 10 years old from late-2001 to 2004 was that only the Theatrical Cuts were released on 35mm film prints in theaters.

“As if you didn’t already know, these tickets weren’t just for the showing of the three films, but the first two (Fellowship Of The Ring and The Two Towers) would be a special showcase of the DVD extended editions in theaters for the first time. Prints for these films were minted just for this event and at considerable cost to New Line Cinema. One week prior to the on-sale date, the movies’ official web site listed the U.S. screening locations.”

And both 35mm film prints were created directly from their 2k masters, right? Like I said, I knew nothing about this until now, except the fact that I only knew that only the Theatrical Cuts existed in 35mm film prints.

Not sure on that.
