Yay! Sounds like fun!

both MTV MovieAward's easter eggs of previous LotR releases have been dropped in theUK release, because of "adult" dialogues

This is a good thing. I thought the easter eggs on the other 2 were hilarious, but the "adult" dialogues did mess it up.

It's an interesting point regarding "offcolor" language. It can easily become gratuitous, but at times is effective and relevant. I sometimes think
censors/editors get carried away in various editing of films, especially for non-cable tv. Two examples in the U. S.:
1) in "Mad Max" replacing Australian accents with American

and in the first "Smokey and the Bandit" replacing BR line given in response
to the question
"Can you run a forklift?"
"I can lift any forking thing around" with
"I can lift anything."

But I imagine that f***** f**** Dobby and that f*****' hack Peter Jackson
would approve of the changes.

My biggest disappointment in the third extended dvd is that they don't offer
something like the nice bookends that came with the FOTR dvd.
