It's great, thank you to that lovely person who put it online! I loved the Pippin-Faramir interaction! Also, when Gandalf is kicked off Shadowfax and Pippin 'jumps to the rescue', do you suppose this is the moment when the horns are heard and Rohan comes at last?

Excellent find!

I was disappointed with the Gandalf-Wiki scene though...I was hoping Gandalf would put up more of a fight instead of losing helplessly. I still think that Gandalf can beat the Witch King, but I guess PJ didn't wanna do that.

Well, it makes much more sense of the Witch-King's line to Gothmog that he will crush the Wizard. And it enhances the power of the Witch-King as an opponent, thus making Eowyn's defeat of him (with Merry's help) even more impressive. I like it.

Um, has anyone else dowloaded this with a dial-up connection? 54 minutes, it said! Being a Luddite I don't have Broadband yet, but should it take that long?

It took me 56 minutes...gosh, I envy your connection speed Lalwendë...wow...

But it was worth it.

Thank you so much Sapphire_Flame! I was just going to ask if any one knew of an RotK EE preview beside the one on lordoftherings.net. My friend wanted to see it, but her computer was having problems. Does anyone know of any others? I need something to entertain me until it comes out.

Well, there's always this bootlegged comiccon footage that has a few new things.
While the blooper reel's quality is extremely poor, it's quite amusing. Especially Sam's "closeup".
