The Star Wars prequels were in the process of leaving something to be desired back then, but this movie demonstrated how wonderful a franchise could be.Īny time I watch the Lord of the Rings films, I always go with the extended versions.

The physical collectibles include a 64-page booklet featuring costumes, photography, and production notes from the films. However, I don’t know if everything can be found there, and it’s important to note that things can disappear from streaming services due to rights issues or other legal matters.
