The Lord of The Rings Trilogy

I’m off out to see The Hobbit later, hoping that some of the dreadful reviews that have been in the press have been on the cruel side rather than wholly fair. As I was running my series on Blu-Ray box-sets to give as Christmas gifts this seemed the perfect time to revisit the Lord Of The Rings Trilogy. Then I panicked – I have the theatrical release box-set, would this be the best one to review? What about the Extended Edition?
