@Agent007391 and @Creasy47, I find it also highly recommendable to spend a week or so in middle earth by watching one half film each day. That way you avoid getting overfed like from a one-day-session, and you can enjoy the aftertaste every day all day long.
Also, I've bought the EE of AUJ and already watched it. Not many scenes added, some very good, some of doubtful quality. I'm now watching the Appendixes, there are a lot of references to Bond at some point. In case you don't know Jackson is a big Bond fan (has a collection of original posters for every film in his office) and seems to take every opportunity to show it. Interest in directing one, perhaps?
Jackson for Bond? That´s interesting. Despite having mixed feelings about Jackson´s oevre on the whole (some outstanding, some mediocre), I was thinking when I saw AUJ at the cinema that I wouldn´t mind Bond being influenced at least by the colour schemes.
About Jackson and Bond, yes he had his ups and downs but he's such a passionate director that I think it just might work. Besides, he seems to have gotten along pretty well with Craig during Tintin. I read somewhere (might have been in the Originals thread) that Barbara Broccoli considered him for directing a Bond when she saw Heavenly Creatures but then changed her mind when she saw (I think) Braindead. So, who knows?
I just finished watching the first half of the appendixes for AUJ. As always, it's amazing watching them and I wish there was someone doing the same thing for the Bond films.
That was a very good movie, so I am not quite sure what her problem is.
Jackson would probably write his own script as well which would be interesting, and we'd probably see 007 down under and in New Zealand.
However I prefer Jackson first on an episode of DW.
If Jackson would've directed TWINE it's possible that we would never have gotten the LOTR trilogy as we now know them. So in a way, it was lucky he never made TWINE.
Thanks @Sandy for sharing your research ;-). It´s a pity if the extended parts are not described in the booklet, makes comparing the versions quite a task at that overall length of the film.
Well I couldn´t possibly imagine that Babs still would have something against him after TLOTR ;-).

Yes, I've been checking them. However apparently the story has been absolutely butchered this time from what I've heard. I'm even afraid of what I'm going to find in it.
Yup, along with his family.
Have fun
Yeah, but then another year full of waiting will commence until the final part is released.
