Return of the King:Extended Edition date?
It was suppose to be the 14th of December from what I remember, then I didn't hear a followup to this. I think thedigitalbits said that that ended up not being the date. So are they going to put this thing out before Christmas or what (they'd be fools not to). Anyone know the date yet, and have some specs?

I doubt releasing it after Christmas would have a major effect on sales. I know I'd still buy it. There might be a small drop releasing it after Christmas, but I don't think it would be serious.

Hmmmm....interesting. Granted the post is fromt the 9th of this month so I don't know if anything has changed.
Edited:: Never mind, I posted prematurely.
Well, we're now hearing that New Line HASN'T yet officially announced the street date for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King - Special Extended DVD Edition. Earlier today we said that the studio had announced the title for release on 12/14. They had published a 2-page spread in this week's issue of Video Store revealing the street date, SRP and other details. Turns out that the ad got printed prematurely and was retracted. So the street date and other release details are still subject to change. Doh! We've updated the posting below and we'll be sure to let you know when New Line gets their ducks in a row on the release information.

I could care less about a box that holds the movies. It's just cardboard, and it probably won't be seen as it will be sitting between all of my other DVDs. Awesome looking Return of the King: EE though
