Quote:
In principle, heirs may be a good thing. But for Hobbit Frodo does the legacy of his uncle and foster father Bilbo more stress. On the magical ring that Frodo was left, are in fact just about any existing villains sharp - not the best conditions, when one has made the decision to the heirloom to the benefit of all to destroy Middle Earth. Tolkien's fantasy novel "The Lord of the Rings" is one of the most referred favorite books, the film versions of Peter Jackson are among the bargain to the most frequently mentioned favorite movies. Where should the lead be? In any case, it leads to constantly renewed DVDs: the complete trilogy will appear again as a box set, this time with far-seen documentaries. May, logical, missing in any collector's shelf. (Nh) Features: New Behind-the-scenes documentary feature-length, unpublished pictures.

I don't believe these are region free, but if anyone wants to correct me I'd love it if they were.

yes, the German releases are B locked

edit:
Hmm, strange, as I saw on AVSforum that it was "B", but I guess I was wrong, my mistake!

which exchange rate do you use when calculating costs? I'm a bit confused. Is it denmark, german, or euros?

The United States.

If you're trying to say that $60 something dollars is a good deal for this, you're barking up the wrong tree.

^ I think it's the steelbook collectibilty that's the attraction here.

"Herr der Ringe"....that sounds bad-ass.

yeah, that's why I said it's not a deal at all unless you're into steelbooks. I can do without them (especially after getting burned with the first 6 bond steels and their lack of further steelbook releases).

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't €49.84 x 2.574 over $128? Even for a steelbook that is just way overpriced. And unlike Amazon UK they charge a little currency conversion fee of about $1 too. If you want a GREAT value steelbook go for their exclusive MJ This Is It which was about $27 shipped when I got it (includes all disc and paper exclusives from EVERY US store). I sold my Best Buy copy on Amazon.com for a $30 profit making the German exclusive free

Opp I forgot the 1 on the front, should be $1.2570, so €49,84 x $1.2570 = $62.45.
