"Is it worth the $70?"

This set is amazing.
From the movie stand point, the extended scenes provide so much insight into the characters. Also, the special features are fascinating (I don't want to spoil so I wont go into them).
The main question is not is the movie is good enough, but rather, is this set worth 70 dollars.
Yes. If you think about it, for a family 5 to go to the movies for a night it costs around 70 bucks (or at least thats how much it costs my family). With this set you get almost 12 hours of movie to watch, plus endless special features. Basically you can spend an entire weekend just watching this set.
If, however, you just simply want to see the movie, no extras, no extensions, just the normal movie, then get the normal movie. If you want the best Lord of the Rings experience get this.

"The Christ in the Lord of the Rings"

With all of the world's problems and the gloom and doom going on today, most people want to get away from reality. The Lord of Rings trilogy takes you from reality to a far off world. But as some people look at films for romance, action, or drama, I look for the Christ-like aspect in a film. I believe that these movies have some characters that portray some Christ-like qualities such as Aragon, Frodo, and Gandalf.
Aragon, who starts in the film as Strider, fits the Christ-like qualities in theses ways. His family line was with that of the King Elendal. Christ's line was with King David. Aragon was disliked and even hated by his own people, mostly those who were in authority. Jesus Christ had to deal with hatred and plots from Pharisees and Sadducee.
Frodo Baggins, the hobbit, carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. The evil from the ring that no man could carry was being handled by a small hobbit. Similarly, Jesus was merely a son of a carpenter and carried our sins on the cross.
Gandalf guided and direct the Fellowship through tough obstacles, as Jesus directed his disciples in the gospels. Gandalf the Grey died and was brought back to life as Gandalf the white. Jesus died on the cross and rose again on the third day.
In conclusion, the Lord of the Rings trilogy contains many Christ-like attributes that may often go unnoticed. J. R. R. Tolkien the writer of the books was a Christian, and I believe that it would be neat for everyone to look for the Christ like or Christian values of the movie. Even though there were some things that were added or taken away from the books, I thought they were really well produced.
"The way to go"

I thought the LOTR was great in the theaters. But the extended version is the ONLY way to see it if you really love the books. The extra scenes really fill out the the blanks that the long-time Ring fans knew were there. And if you are into it - the extra time is no big deal. I still love the books - there is still much that is there that did not make it to film (don't miss Bombadil, but I would have loved to see the scouring of the Shire on film). But I am glad to have the full extended version films to enjoy a "shorter" version when I can't set aside a week or two to read.
