Middle Earth 6-Film Ultimate Collector’s Edition is announced
LOTR & The Hobbit in Middle Earth 31-disc Ultimate Collector’s Edition on 4k Blu-ray with remastered Blu-rays & Digital Copies
The Lord of the Rings is a stunning movie for fall and its fans will soon be able to celebrate it with even more aplomb. Warner Bros. will release a Middle Earth 4K ultimate collectors’ edition on October 26. This set includes theatrical and extended versions of all six remastered films from the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies. There will have new bonus content, too. Not to mention, the gift box itself is gorgeous. The set also includes a 64-page booklet that showcases “a collection of costume sketches, photography and production notes” and seven travel poster art cards. We feel spoiled. And no, it doesn’t matter if you already own multiple editions of The Lord of Rings trilogy. A wizard arrives precisely when he means to, and you own as precisely as many copies of these movies as you need to.
These new releases are that the special effects that already look cool (or at least looked cool when The Lord of the Rings films premiered in the early aughts) will look even better with a 4K remaster. Director Peter Jackson oversaw the remastering himself. I want to believe cave trolls and balrogs are real, darn it. One aspect that will help with making a well-rounded Middle-earth is the sound. So hopefully, that got a nice adjustment as well.
