This matches up nicely with the LOTR box set

Improvement to story
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I felt that these extended versions filled out the story a lot more than I expected. As with most re-cuts, there was still some fluff like LotR had, but it seemed that there were more key scenes and story driving enhancements by comparison to the LotR extended cuts. I like those also, but I felt these (hobbit extended) had more value to watch over the original hobbit cuts.

Splendid collection of a fantastic series
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read the books in 1973, watched the cartoon versions, and paid attention to about any LOTR/Hobbit material I could find for the following decades. The movies may have taken a few liberties (some good/some not so good), but overall Peter Jackson brought the books to life, and I'm glad I lived long enough to see these films and share them with my son. I would recommend the Hobbit and the LOTR sets to anyone who enjoys the fantastical, wonderful costumes, great acting, and having their imagination brought to life... I'd have given this 6 stars if I could have!!! -Vaughn

Too Good?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excited for the Hobbit extended movie pack! I purchased the "Lord of the Rings" extended movie pack and it was the best behind the movie bonus material I had ever seen, until this one. If you are a serious fan of "The Lord Of The Rings & Hobbit" this is a must have, but be warned that you may not get much sleep for a while as it is hard to stop watching the hours & hours of extended footage!

For the fan of The Hobbit trilogy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my daughter as a Christmas present. She is a fan of the books and loves the movies. When I saw there was an extended version out of the movie, I bought it knowing my daughter wood be over the moon for it. She had the biggest smile ever when she opened it on Christmas Day. Till this day she tells me that it was one her best gifts ever!

Nice to have the extended version
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This a good movie, though not up to The Lord of the Rings standard (too much computer graphics). On the other hand, it is a good story. The disks work fine; some who have purchased these from Amazon have complained about possible illegal copies and so I purchased them from Best Buy to ensure I received a reliable product.

The Hobbit - in trilogy boxed set
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If your a fan of Peter Jackson and his visual interpretation of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" then a must have. The added materials, not in the book, flesh out the back-history of the characters is wonderful for those who haven't read Tolkien's The Silmarillion, of course it might have been nice in a single movie too....ha ha!

Tons of extras!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This set included tons of extra features that were very interesting. I don't normally watch "the making of" and "commentary" features on DVD's, but for some reason I decided to on this, and I was glad I did. All of the other features that provided extra background for the world of Tolkien were extremely nice, too.

Love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a huge Lord of the Rings and Hobbit fan and I already own the extended versions of the Lord of the Rings and when I found out that there was the extended editions of the Hobbit I had to have it. It is well worth it. Granted they are not like the book but they are still great movies! I loved every second of it.

a required LOTR collector's item
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This set sits happily next to my Lord of the Rings trilogy set and both match eachother. I was very impressed with the added scenes, especially the added battle scenes in the Battle of the Five Armies. Most importantly, I thoroughly enjoy watching the Appendices (making of). Provides hours of entertainment.

Great Book, Great Movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The directors cut movies are always worth buying. The extra scenes make the overall movie more enjoyable. The movie is a recommended purchase. The customer service at the Best Buy I went to could use some work. It was terrible!

Very Good Purchase
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Extended Version of the Hobbit gives you an enormous amount of additional content which includes casting, training, language, makeup, computer use and additional story details, bringing the Hobbit Story and the work behind it into sharp focus. Well worth the money!

Extended Ed. boxed sets are always so much better!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While not as great as the original "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, I highly enjoyed The Hobbit! The extended editions add between 13-30 minutes of extra footage per movie. Def helps the story flow better and makes it feel more complete. I highly recommend this set.

Thoroughly enjoyable movie set
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this set for my daughter for Christmas and watched it while she was home on break from college. The extended edition is well worth the investment, and my daughter and her friends also loved the appendices. If you want the full Hobbit experience, go for this set.

A Must-Have for Hobbit/Lord of the Ring Fans
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extended versions of movies treat the view to things that have to be edited for theatrical release. "The Hobbit" extended edition is more than a treat; it is a must-have for any fan. The extra scenes and behind the scenes footage are priceless.
