I might buy it after work.

I know it's cheaper at furture shop today so I'm hoping my mum will pick it as I am no where near a future shop. If she doesn't then I'll buy my copy tomorrow.

I bought it for my boyfriend at Best Buy. They're giving away a collector edition of Entertainment Weekly and a free pack of batteries with the DVD.

I'm waiting for the extended edition, too.

I hope the fun thing that comes along with the ROTK extended edition is good. I liked the bookends that came with FOTR, but I didn't get the Gollum statue with TT because I didn't like it.

From someone who works in a movie store, lots of people are waiting for the extended version (which will be out in stores for this year's Holiday Season!)

Our store was open until 1 am ( ) for folks to pick it up after midnight.

OMG!!! Did you really utter those words, LOL... Really though, I like having both versions... First of all, yes, I will watch it many times before the EE comes out, so it will save me money in the long run.

LOL Yup I did.

My brother will probably buy both. So I can watch either one.

You got batteries?

I too bought mine at Best Buy on Tuesday. It was quite humorous though, pretty much every person in that store was walking around with a copy of ROTK in their hands.

The collectors editions of Entertainment Weekly is really nice though. Glad I bought the DVD at Best Buy (even though I really didn't have the money handy, the great things about credit cards, until you get the bill. )

As a EW subscriber, I got the special edition in the mail-- didn't have to buy the movie (although I plan to when I have a day off work). Very cool. Notice it was on a heavier, higher quality paper?

LOL, I got the batteries too, and I got free popcorn!!!!!! Although I think that was a store-specific deal. This one was for my sister though (and she gave me the $$), so of course I took the free stuff and gave her the DVD... Great EW mag though, I did notice it was quality paper...

Yup, my bf bought it for us. So we have the regular versions of all three. When the extended version comes out we're going to get all three.
