ketsugi, maybe you missed it, but limited editions did come out not too long ago. They were released maybe two months ago roughly. What they are is both version of the movie as well as documentary on the making of the movie, similar to the stuff on the limited editions of the remakes of the original Star Wars trilogy. I picked them up for $60 for all 3, because I started college and didn't own my own copies. I was very pleased with my purchase and consider it well worth the $60.
Well, that confirms it. Even Peter Jackson is unsure he can make a non-Tolkien story a success. So he's doubling up on the last story remaining (sorry, the Silmarillion doesn't count as a cohesive story).
@Enkid"I don't really like LoTR that much. Always thought it was racist. The Orcs are all black, and there isn't one non-white person (human, dwarf, or elf) in the movie. Also, took way, way too long, and all the characters are so simplistic"Racist?um, let me explain something to you. In the fantasy world that Tolkien Created, there is only one race of men. That world is different from our own world, so what is reality to us is only fantasy to them, and vice versa. In middle earth, there are no "non-white" people because that's the way it is.Characters simplistic? Oh of course, i'd forgotten that human emotion is so simple, and that friendships so strong that you would give your life for your friend, and would give your life to save the world, i forgot that all that was simple. Silly me.I don't think the skin color of the orcs is relevant.

Lets hope he learns how to film battle scenes by then. (Yes they really are crap, can't see the fighting)
