I should like to add that a Mithril edition should all come with soundtracks or at least a bonus feature of the soundtracks being performed live by an orchestra/band. That would send me over the edge 🤩 I think an inclusion asp of an authenticated legitimate map would be amazing, something without fold creases and the shine of poster paper. Like I’m talking a real authentic paper and ink drawn map, rolled like a scroll. It also would make my geeky heart just keel over and die to have a full on set of movies that would match a book set.

Rumor grew of a Gil-Galad in the Deleted Scenes, whispers of a the Glittering Caves, and the Ultimate Edition perceived its time had come, ... But they were all of them deceived, for this was not the Edition that was sought. It Betrayed us, Until, when chance comes, it will become a new, Master Edition... Mithril, Film from the vault, edited from the shards of Middle-Earth. Put aside the Ultimate, become The Edition you were born to be... Make The Mithril Edition!

Word. As someone who has also seen every frame of Middle Earth content ever released (or so I had thought) I stumbled across a hidden gem six months back. In some of the cinematics of the Two Towers Video game, which combine filmed footage with CG, there are a range of shots used from the 'Pursuit to Lothlorien' sequence, of which I had previously only seen a few clips and stills. One great shot of note was Legolas doing a ridiculous spin and fire moment to mess up a Goblin chieftain leading the assault. Just thought I'd mention it in case you'd missed it.

I never watch the Theatrical releases anymore. I obtained the 4K LotR trilogy but was disappointed in the packaging & one of the discs was flawed so I purchased the set a second time. The 4K editions astounded me. The beauty of the details, especially in the costumes inspires my work every time I watch the films (I’m a fabric artist, tailor, hand embroiderer, needlepoint, crochet, & quilting JUNKIE). There has never been anything like the costumes in these films. Every stitch was executed with the highest form of skill & art. The cinematography of the New Zealand landscapes is even more beautiful than the HD versions. If you are a fan of the movies, you’ve got to see the 4K editions. If you’re a fan of the books (as am I) you will appreciate the depictions of Middle-earth even if you disagree with some of the plot lines &/or the exclusion of some sections of Tolkien’s original work (my pet peeve is that “The Scouring of the Shire” was excluded).

This time, we got the cannes cut. Next time, we get some new behind the scenes stuff. Then maybe some more lost scenes.. And then in 30 years when everything has already been released piecemeal, we maybe get the mithril collection. That's also when the original star wars trilogy will be released, when advances in ai upscaling will already have made a commercial release pointless.

The Howard Shore documentary included. Give us all this, Warner Bros., and no other box set, aside from maybe your 2016 book shelf box set, will ever compete. Harry who? Star what?

For WB to call this the "Ultimate Collector's Edition" was shameful At the absolute least, it should have contained the upscaled Appendices. The gimmicks that were included bordered on junk - though to add insult to injury, they included a One Ring with the UK release and for whatever reason dropped it from the US version, which made me even more irritated with this release. Naturally, I bought it anyway, so shame on me :(

10:48 Hey, I love my Middle Earth bookshelf edition! :D Truth be told it was actually a Christmas present, but it's beautiful.... and of course I see your Point. I'm not sure I need an extra extended version. But I do love the idea of having most of the deleted material, or even some of it, converted to finished scenes. Maybe release a short film epilogue with more material on what happened to some of the characters later. George Lucas did this 20 years ago with the prequels! If they want, Warner/ New Line/ MGM can do it now. Since I (still) don't have 4K yet, I also have yet to upgrade to these new editions. Personally, while the quality is sure to be amazing, I'm not sure I like the new desaturated looking color grading and (from what I've seen) prefer the original one so far. Also, Color grading is usually also the job of the DP... and sadly, Andre Lesnie can't give his input on that topic anymore 😢 Anyway, thanks for the great review! Great channel as always.

It's somewhere between fifteen and thirty seconds of extra time. Why cut this? I had to find this scene online too.

In a Mithril Edition, I NEED a good packaging, with more artbooks, little character statues, and a box worthy of being exposed, not merely watched. As any DVD or book spends more time in its case than in the player, I want them to be useful and pleasant even in their boxes, and I think it is the least that Middle-Earth deserves. Maybe a steel case with silver writing (it is a Mithril Edition after all), containing tens of artbooks, a statue for each character, and all films in the best available quality, with as many deleted scenes as possible, director commentaries and all the behind-the-scenes content. I know the quality of the films, so the things making medecide between editions are the extra content and the packaging, the latter being more important because the case will spend more time on a shelf than being watched no matter the hundreds of hours of content it has, for it will be on a shelf for thousands of hours

As much as I love the LOTR movies, I would not want a new version with more deleted scenes integrated back into the moves. Maybe I am wrong, but with the extended version I thought Peter Jackson had carte blanche to included any new scenes or extended scenes that he wanted. Any scenes that didn't make the extended versions were probably left off for a reason. Now, if there was a 4K version that included ALL of the bonus features from all previous releases AND 'effects finished' versions of cut scenes (NOT integrated into the movies but as a separate feature) than I would be interested. Definite bonus if such a set was available just as The Lord of the Rings without the need to get The Hobbit. Now THAT would be an Ultimate Edition!

I don't know I'm a Hobbit dwarf kinda guy. I still own the 3D movies, unfortunately don't have my 3d tv anymore. I don't have a tv at all. These movies are the only reason I would want to get one. In high school I went to sleep to Fellowship of the Ring. My mid 20s to early 30s was the Hobbit, I miss that

I'd love to see at least a digital version of Aragorn fighting Sauron at the end. Have always been curious had badly that would affect the film. Or hell, maybe I'd just enjoy it.

The appendices are included in the digital copies in Apple movies after I redeemed them from this set. Hours of behind the scenes.

All they needed added in the ultimate edition was the appendices. That's all it's missing.

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive! Thank you SO MUCH for this review! Truth be told, I had a little trepidation when I pre-ordered it. I wasn't really sure if what I was getting was worth it. I already had the extended collector's editions of the DVDs, blu-rays, and even the initial 4K sets. I heard they tweaked this 4K set even more than the initial 4K sets, but I can't remember where I saw that. Anyway, thanks again, buddy! Mae govannen! 😎🤘☮💯 EDIT: I just checked and mine's coming tomorrow! Oh, and someone needs to start a #ReleaseTheMEMithrilEdition campaign! (My tag might need a little work, though. 😜)

@@NerdoftheRings We can't get thim in HFR as 48fps is not a supported standard on Blu-ray (and of course 3d is not even a supported standard on UHD blu-ray). Only way for them to deliver it would be via streaming though I don't know what TV's support 48fps.

I'm definitely going to get this. I don't have the 4k editions of any of these, and, I confess, I'm a sucker for anything Lord of the Rings. Here's to hoping that the Mithril Edition actually does happen.

So how much exactly extra stuff is there like bonus feature wise? Because I don’t have a 4K tv and I just have some Sony sound bar and there’s NO convincing my parents to upgrade the sound or tv. So I already have the I think original set for lord of the rings extended edition you know the one with each movie has there own box green red blue I also have the newer extended BlueRay version of the lord of the rings as well the one with the case for all three cases of the movies and an extra disc than the other set I also have the box set of BlueRay of all three hobbit films so what exactly special and bonus features do I get?

Totally agree on the Mithril edition. But I'd like to add one essential point, at least for me: fixing as many bloopers as (technically) possible. That would be the Silmaril edition, If I may suggest a nome too.

The problem with Warner Bros is that they don't want to invest money to give us quality. Adding gimmicks to the packaging is much cheaper for them and people buy it anyways. I don't know if you guys in the US know the story, but it took the combined effort of all German speaking fans over multiple years of pushing for Warner Bros to release a Mediabook version of Friday the 13th Parts 9 - 11 to fit 84' Entertainments Mediabook Release of parts 1 - 8. And even that was just a "bare minimum" release. 84' Entertainments release had a brand new 2K Master of all those movies plus additional bonus features and a 32p booklet for each movie specifically created for this release. Whereas the Warner Bros Mediabooks contained a 4p booklet and repackaging of their Amaray discs (which btw only included the R Rated Cut of Jason goes to Hell). Warner just don't like to spent money. They just want to make quick tendies.
