Slashdot linked up final info on the LOTR - Return of the King release. 4 discs, with the "recut" feature clocking in at a whopping 4+ hours across two DVDs. I always thought Tolkien's books would be better done as a 12+ hour miniseries instead of a set of movies. Who would've predicted that Peter Jackson would get away with doing both?
I absolutely refuse to buy and of these until he comes out with the one box set that has each of the 4 hour versions of each film - the full aforementioned 12 hours. Then, we'll just invite everyone over, cook up massive amounts of food, have massive amounts of alcohol, and watch the whole damn thing end to end.
