The Ultimate Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Collector's Edition Blu-ray Full Unboxing and Review!

[@Relics_of_Arda]

I think this one looks cooler than the 4K collector's set.

[@dennisosburn546]

Just bought bluray ex ed 15 disk at salvation army 5.99

[@Relics_of_Arda]

@@dennisosburn546 Nice!

[@SuperMoviemaster21]

THIS set has Maps, item Sketches, family tree lines etc. everything in the book of which the 4K one does not, so of course it’s therefore cooler and more definitive/Truly needed. The only thing the 4K has is the Reunion disc, of which you can pretty much watch that Featurette anywhere online

[@Relics_of_Arda]

@@SuperMoviemaster21 Exactly.

[@BrendanJSmith]

I was honestly disappointed with the 4K set. The color grading of the films is all gone and the movies look much less vibrant as a result. Yeah, I know the blu-ray for Fellowship of the Ring has that infamous greenish-blue tint, but the films on 4K look much more dull than the blu-ray versions. I'm also disappointed that blu-ray discs didn't come with the set as well (for the rest of us who don't have a 4K TV) but maybe that's just me. What disappointes me most about this set is the lack of new features. Keeping all the old special features is a must but there are so many deleted scenes that have never seen the light of day that I would KILL to see! That alone would've made the 4K set a must-own. But what makes me prefer this version over the 4K set is the presentation. This set looks like it came straight out of the films and the bonus stuff included adds to that even more!

[@cyb3rrazorcut]

This is the greatest box set ever. I bought the 4k set too but I’ll always keep this beautiful set.

[@Nick-4K]

For sure. It's awesome

[@davidmcaninch4714]

I wish I had physical media of The Lord of the Rings (Extended Editions, of course)!!! I’d even take it in just one Blu Ray case!!!!!

[@CyberIce2000]

The last 2 pictures in the Return of the King one should have been the ship sailing away and Sam's door when he closed it.

[@richardsanchez5444]

3:07 holy sht. Did anybody else catch that? It said "barrels out of bounds" its supposed to be "barrels out of bond". Thats hiw its printed in the book. I wonder if that makes it more valuable for the misprint.

[@ralfwalter3923]

I bought this just because the overall presentation is amazing. I may buy the rumored super 4K set in 2021 but I really love this Blu-ray set for sure!

I bought this set and swapped out the blue rays with my 4K sets....

i know there may be the rumored 4K ultimate edition of this but i need this...like now

Buy the blu ray set for less and then buy the 4k’s individually when they go really cheap and swap the discs 🤜🏼🤛🏼

The elvian brooch is given to the fellowship at Caras Galadhon, when they are offered the cloacks and gifts from Galadriel. So that's not with the fellowship from the begining.

[@craigprentice5634]

Is there wonder if the extended cuts are going to have new scenes and the old extended scenes I wonder if they're going to add then given gold to everyone?

[@bangtanismylife5455]

Elvenking Thranduil is just so beautiful

[@garyjones2561]

This was an awesome video Net. Kept my interest all the way through. What a cool set. I'm a big fan of Tolkien, and I also have some pretty fancy box sets, but yours top even mine. 😁 I did an unboxing video last year, where I opened my Hobbit trilogy, and showed off the LotR trilogy I already had. Oh btw, the theatrical versions have their place. Sometimes you want it a little shorter. Plus, there's actually some scenes in FotR theatrical that *aren't* in the extended. Lol

[@BlueCrayon77]

Pretty cool

[@akirahojo2]

Every scene chosen for the double spread is such great a shot.

[@dragonsoul897]

This set didn't come with the theatrical versions.

[@Darkasknightfall]

I want this 👍🏼

[@potatosoupgirl]

Actually, I think the reason why they chose to put each film onto two discs is because the LOTR books technically have 2 books in each (making it a total of 6). I think they wanted to respect what Tolkien did, so they incorporated that into the movies. Not sure if this is correct, but I think it sounds pretty reasonable.

[@notayetti555]

The other reason is for technical purposes. The Fellowship and The Two Towers are 3hrs 30 mins each. The Return of the King is 4hrs 30 mins. My take is, to avoid a stupid amount of compression, they just decided to go with two discs. Which works better for the consumer because we get a better quality product.

[@stingray7849]

What a beautiful set

[@ontasbulent5709]

Okay I need this box

[@amon__7187]

4k editions coming out soon. And the complete 4k with all movies comes out next year

[@Nick-4K]

That's true. I guess you could do that if someone wanted too

[@tfortchaikovsky]

A very nice boxset, indeed. The booklet would be cooler, though, if they used more sketches instead of just taking everything straight from the BoFA and RotK end credits.

[@brianlai4744]

Awesome ，this is real collector edition，better than upcoming release 4K UHD middle earth collector edition，4K sets is bull shit，thank you for sharing

How does the video quality compare to the 2011 extended Blu-Ray cut, I know that set had a weird blue filter put over the entire movie that really ruined it for me. I hope this doesn't have it too!
