[QUOTE="Goodsport, post: 295726, member: 1550"]       After further research, I found that it may pay to get [i]both[/i] versions!       Apparently, Peter Jackson wanted to release a six-disc set that included the theatrical version of the film, the director's cut version with 30 minutes of added footage, and [i]tons[/i] of other goodies. They soon figured out that almost no one would buy a six-disc set (imagine the price!), so they broke it up into two sets: the two-disc set and the four-disc set. Neither will have material that the other has (or so I hear). The official reason, of course, is that they didn't want the fans to have to wait for the movie itself while Peter Jackson is still finalizing the director's commentary and other stuff.       In any case, if you can afford it, it would pay to get both the two-disc set, and either the four-disc set or the Collector's Set (which includes the four-disc set, plus other stuff). :)       By the way, will either of these DVD disc-sets compare favorably with the [i]Dungeons & Dragons: The Movie[/i] DVD? ;) -G [/QUOTE]
