I thought Jackson said... (LOTR related)
http://www.canada.com/montreal/montr...4-6EED7735C2D2
An article from the Montreal Gazette has an interview with Ngila Dickson who did costumes for LOTR. Here is the surprising part she says:
And then she drops a teaser - "and I'm already hearing rumours about next year." Pressed, she will say only it's for a "vast, gigantic" future DVD release of the entire trilogy.
This is quite the surprise. I thought I recalled Peter Jackson saying that after the EE's there would be nothing else released.
What are everyones thoughts?

Let them release an even bigger cut. I personally found the TTT:EE a bit overdone. Of course the logical step would be to release a huge complete TRILOGY box with some kind of insane extra that's not available on the EEs.
As long as they release a ROTK:EE that goes nicely with my other two I will be happy.

DVD Talk Gold Edition
I'm not really too bothered about this. I'd buy anything that deals with LOTR, so I guess I'm a fanboy of these movies. What I would like is if all three are presented as one long film. No opening credits for parts II and III, no titles saying FOTR, TTT, or ROTK. I dunno, I'll buy a new gift set.

Yeah, may just be a set with the three movies included. I can't imagine there being that much new material worthy of a re-buy anyways. I wouldn't get too worked up about it

DVD Talk Limited Edition
I'll easily triple dip on the films if they release them as one long 12 hour movie. If it's just more extras though, i'll pass. I got MORE then I need with the EE's

I'm quite pleased with the EE so another release would have to be pretty damn spectacular for me to fork over more $$$.

Listen to the Fellowship commentary: Jackson mentions a possible future release. The change he specifically talks about is changing the Fellowship Gollum to match the new character model used in the second two films.

Don't get me wrong guys, I'm a big LOTR fan and a release of a combination of all 3 movies (as some of you have mentioned) would be cool. I just don't want something to happen like sicklerice mentioned.

He's also indicating that he'd like to direct The Hobbit:
Peter Jackson Wants THE HOBBIT
Posted on Tuesday, December 02 @ 08:54:12 EST by Ajax (804 reads)
LORD OF THE RINGS director Peter Jackson says he definitely wants to direct THE HOBBIT, but it's in New Line's court.
Sci Fi Wire had the details:
Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson told the Australian news.com.au Web site that he is now interested in helming a movie version of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit. Jackson said that Rings studio New Line Cinema had yet to speak to him about The Hobbit and added there were some difficulties related to the rights for the book.
But, Jackson said, "certainly if they want to talk to me about it, I'd be keen. It would be wonderful to complete the set of films." The Hobbit, which Tolkien published in 1937 before starting on The Lord of the Rings, is a children's story about Bilbo Baggins' first encounter with Gandalf, Gollum and the One Ring.
Lord of the Rings executive producer Mark Ordesky confirmed to the site that "there could be a movie about The Hobbit. Enough said." Before that, however, Jackson will have to complete work on his upcoming remake of the classic SF movie King Kong.
Sorry for the slightly off topic post but it IS Jackson / Tolkien / Lord of the Rings related.

Ah yes, the ol' DVDtalk stigma where if its LOTR or Star Wars, exceptions to rules like double dipping and director's vision are ok Anyway, considering how worked up people get about double dipping for 15 dollars, you would think ~75 bucks for all 3 extended editions or ~150-200 for the gift sets would make people a little more picky about a double dip
