The Canadian Posts: 363 Group: Moderators Member #3 Joined: August 14, 2015	But R Rated. Wow. That 20 extra minutes must be brutal as hell.

Posts: 100 Group: Members Member #4 Joined: August 14, 2015	Hey! I resemble that remark! Seriously, I can understand how it can be hard to follow if you're not familiar with the story. I actually prefer the Extended Editions, because they include more of the story, which in turn makes more sense. I've heard about the R rating, but I'm trying to figure out how they could do it. I know Jackson's horror background, but I'm kind of hoping he doesn't go that route. Maybe it's more brutal than gory. We will see come November, because yes, I plan on getting it to complete my set.

The Canadian Posts: 363 Group: Moderators Member #3 Joined: August 14, 2015	Well I don't think brutal leads to an r rating. I just can't see how it will get an r rating at all Also, I am extremely disappointed in The Hobbit Extended. Like, Fellowship had an extra half hour coming to a 3 hour and 48 minute movie. The Two Towers: 3 hours and 56 minutes Return of the King: 4 hours and 23 minutes long. Huge extensions of what they were before. Regarded as many as the better editions. Unexpected Journey: Original: 2 hours and 40 minutes Extended: 3 hours and one minute Desolation of Smaug: Original: 2 hours and 40 minutes Extended: 3 hours and 6 minutes Battle of Five Armies: Original: 2 hours and 20 minutes Extended: 2 hours and 40 minutes + R rating Compared to what we got with the original... I mean I know they took one movie and made it 3 but they just seem so disappointing in comparison. And I have heard from many that the originals are better as they extended don't add much to story.
