Hiya everyone!
Watching the supplemental material in the extended FotR set made me really wish that Jackson had included the complete animatic, Pre-Vis and Model movies he made in the set. I mean, come on! You've got 4 DVDs to work with (each holding 4 hours of Audio and Video), why not throw those items on as well? It'd be a lot of fun, in particular, to see the entire animatic with the sit-in voices. Not to mention that we'd get to see some ideas that were left on the cutting room floor, and catch a glimpse (well, hear at least) a very early version of the script.
I'm tremendously pleased with all the bonus stuff we did get, but I'd probably be willing to pass on a few of the documentaries in exchange for full versions of the pre-production materials.
I am pretty sure you can fit 4 hours of video and two audio tracks on a single DVD. Perhaps the other 3 audio tracks pushed them over the limit to fit the entire film on a single DVD. Still, though, it seems like they had an *awful* lot of room to play with.
I hope Jackson & Co. will consider popping some of this stuff on the later editions!
