This is a great boxed set of the Blu-ray full HD extended editions of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The packaging is compact and beautifully designed. Be careful choosing the set version, though. There are two versions of this same boxed set. One is Canadian and the other is US. The fronts are the same but the backs show some of the set description in French which indicates the Canadian version. I bought this Blu-ray upgrade to replace my previous DVD extended versions. Not only are the Blu-rays far superior in picture quality, but the whole set takes up much less room than the DVD boxed sets. The movies are still split across two discs for each movie, but that just means no compression was necessary to make the long run time fit on one Blu-ray each.

This is almost the Greatest set to get If your a fan of the Lord of the Rings Films. I say Almost because back when this Trilogy came out on DVD they had a great set that included BOTH the THEATRICAL and EXTENDED versions. If this BLURAY set had both like the Special Edition DVD set had then it would be perfect... All the extra dvds in this set are great and have captivating material, but they could have upgraded them to BLURAY AS WELL. But that part does not bother me. What will bother me is in 5 years when they Might come out with a set that has both THEATRICAL AND EXTENDED versions in one set...that will bother me ... But who can wait 5 years right? This is absolutely the best your going to get for the forseeable future.
Lord of the rings trilogy. I wanted to get this in 4K but, it is not been transferred yet. It may not. Because it was only shot in 2K from what I understand. The movie in Blu-ray version is excellent. I have a 4K player that changes Blu-ray to 4K by upscaling. It helps a great deal. The image and audio quality is excellent. I love the movies. That’s why I purchased them.

Best Trilogy ever put together with timeless lessons that always apply, especially in the world we are living in and seeing materialize today. Tolkien was a genius and it is rare that a movie can match the quality and glory of incredibly well written books; but this trilogy does that and more. I highly recommend the trilogy and I love that it has a Biblical theme as it weaves its tale to towards the final "Return of the King," movie.

I have had the extended edition on DVD ever since it came out, and I adored it. Needless to say I couldn't wait until it came out on Blu-Ray. After watching The Fellowship of the Ring, I was underwhelmed. The picture quality was only slightly better than the DVD, not the huge improvement that I was expecting. After inspecting it on my computer with a side-by-side picture comparison, I was even less impressed. I'm not trying to bash this, but it should have been much, much higher quality than this. If you have the DVD set already, think twice before picking this up.
