I haven't seen a release date yet, but it's official that they're on their way. Can't wait. I have seen Fellowship in HD and it's absolutely jaw dropping. 198.gif

    It's been rumored for a very long time and still we wait. I sure hope they go with the EE's on these, if not I'll wait until they do.

    Here's bit of positive info...
    Finally, the studio reps answered the inevitable "When is 'Lord of the Rings' coming out in high-def?" question with the answer, "They (New Line) are working on it now and are determining a release date." In other words, be patient, hobbits!
