Me neither! And I have already watched it three times. Of course, when the EE comes out, the theatrical version will be consigned to the shelf to gather dust.
Well, I guess you can keep the theatrical version as a collector's item .

As for the other material, the "shorts" I found rather dull, and once you've seen the film, who wants to see the trailers and TV spots? All in all very poor, I thought.
Although I haven't seen any of the documentaries yet (saving the 'best' [hopefully so] until last), I'm agreeing with you so far. Most of the stuff I've seen is pretty poor, & there was only maybe one or two trailers that actually held my attention. Besides, when practically every one contains the line 'ever path you have tread, through wilderness, through war, has led you to this point', it gets pretty dull after, oh-about the 3rd one. Not to mention the fact that just about all of the trailers contain the same scenes, in different order or not. All in all I really thought the trailers were lame, although the 'supertrailer' was pretty cool. But not cool enough to withstand more than 2 or 3 viewings of it (if that).
