the shirtless aragorn scene makes the extended

I prefer the books. the extended edition Authors cut.

Neither. Tolkien fans are redditors.

extended or kys

alright extended it is
never watched the films before btw

Both versions are good. The pacing suffers in extended and it adds too many scenes that were important in the book but really aren't necessary for the movie. On the other hand the theatrical cuts actually get rid of too much and several key scenes are missing when viewing them together as a trilogy.

If you want to watch them one at a time as individual movies I'd go with the theatrical versions but if you're marathoning them as one giant film project (which is what the films were shot as - all 3 films were shot and made simultaneously as a single film project) then go with extended. Both versions are good though.

lmao muh fucking dwarfs in holes and muh epic close-ups and muh gud & ebil omg such fucking kino have you see that shemale elf wew look at his bow omg the orcs and the morgs and the borks fighting the fair boromirs of the west it's a literal parallel to what's happening to us in this day and age! btw samwisee, what a strong character, I can't believe they only did a 1 minute close up of his fat annoying face! YASSSS FATTY SLAY BE A GOOD SUBSERVIENT GOY

Are you okay?

Theatrical first, extended if you ever feel like rewatching.

Fellowship extended is kino, RotK doesn't add shit

Extended Fellowship, theatrical Towers and Return
The additional scenes in the last two add nothing to the story and mostly weren't in the books

Fellowship: Extended
Two Towers: Theatrical
Return of the King: Take your pick
That's the consensus I've seen on the topic.

which version to torrent? i heard there's color corrected versions whereas the blu ray version turns everything green...

i always watch extended versions

whichever one has the mouthpiece of sauron

there's alot of unnecessary fluff in two two towers extended

Extended. It really helps me feel the world, you know?

They're both fine.
Although if it's your first time watching them just watch the theatrical they're long enough.
Return of the King is the only one that genuinely benefits from the extended really.

ROTK theatrical has a lot happening all at once it's really jam packed, the extended version paces it out better and gives more context. faramir and eowyn actually talk to eachother for one.

tom hasn't got time for any of this bullshit he's too busy being completely based

Extended because why would you want LESS kino?

Extended Fellowship, watch the scene of Boromir and Faramir in Osgiliath and don't watch the rest.

This except watch The Two Towers.

RotK is reddit.

Theatrical is acceptable for first time viewing. Otherwise it's extended or bust.

True, but the more Frodo-centered scenes there are the worse. Rotk has the most, plus cgi shitshow battles.
The Twin towers suffer from how lengthy Helms Deep gets, and how little stakes there are. The main trio comes off as too op and detached from the action.

>extended
If you watch the theatrical cut it feels like you missed half the story.

both

Extended.

Extended is kino, especially for two towers

Extended Two Towers is amazing with all of the added Theodin scenes
