The news was not shared by anyone other than Samviz Gamgi through Fansite TheOneRing, With actor Sean Austin announcing the rest in the video below. “Now, since it’s in 4K UHD you know it can be the most incredible home-viewing experience possible,” Astin said. “Peter Jackson oversees the rest of the operation himself, and I can say that working with Peter was a lifelong adventure, and the friendship I made will last forever. Enjoy. ”
Lord of the Rings 4K is going to be particularly enjoyable to watch in UHD, as the original trilogy was used using a lot of practical effects (including a lot of miniatures) on a 35mm film, which means the resolution should work out a lot. For no The Hobbit Trilogy (which was digitally shot with enormous CGI), well, some people enjoyed those movies and some people didn’t like it. And that’s all I’ll say about it.
Still, that’s not all. In addition to the two KK UHD trilogy boxbox sets – which will include both theatrical and expanded versions of all six films – there is also the Ultimate Collectors Edition with new bonus content and the final collection. LotR Blu-ray discs coming in the summer of 2021. So, if you’re desperate you can get 4K UHD versions of movies now, or you can wait for the most complete and advanced versions next year.
