Lets not get carried away.

narsty little hobitses!

I bought this set for £30 last year. The 3D-ness of it was quite impressive but the actual films were far too long (making a book half the size of the Fellowship into three films will obviously involve a lot of filler). It's the only box set that I've watched and sold immediately on Ebay! Not a patch on LOTR (love those extended editions).

However, if you have £30 burning a hole in your pocket and nothing to do for 12 hours, it's better than watching repeats of Friends or Top Gear! However, I would rather read the book in 6 hours and then watch the Fellowship again.

I know people don't generally trust Ebay but it seems to be on there for £24 inc postage (new & sealed) - just saying :smiley:

yep same, had a 5 disc multipack thing - spine split and the dividers off the holders as clips broken

15 Discs?! I think even the biggest of super fans would be hard pressed to watch 15 discs of this...

If only Zavvi could be trusted NOT to ship it in a padded envelope.

Fingers crossed Amazon will price match.

Oh, and it has NEVER been the same price at Amazon:

Ah - apologies. I was sure there was something I was missing!

I got this for £17.99 a few months back on Amazon? Seems expensive to me!

Not the extended edition by the looks of it - just standard and 3D trilogy.

This is the link I was talking about. You've got me questioning myself now, although it does seem legit 2nd time of looking (just searched "Hobbit 3D").

It was slightly cheaper at Amazon around Black Friday fortnight - I bought it for £27.99, but really can't complain for a couple quid extra. Do Zavvi still do their 10% off code in an email? as that would drop it lower.

Works out at £3.31 per hour of epicness... Heat!

Absolute toilet. Loved the book as a child. Peter Jackson himself admits pretty much everything was done on the wing. Disgraceful rendition and a shameful money making exercise. It didn't need to be three films long. I could thing of many things to describe this, but they'd get me banned. A real shame and opportunity missed.

Thx OP ordered. It will go well with the LOTR extended set...

Nowhere near as good as the LOTR trilogy!

the theatrical versions were already a bit more extended than necessary
still... guess you can get drinks and snacks without having to pause it

Good find, heat added

Watched the extended the other day (not seen the standard cut)... jeeezus it drags. LOTR was one of my favourite and extended editions added something, think its unnecessary here.

Exactly! It's a great deal and as far as I can tell it's the best price available at the moment... Which is exactly the purpose of this website!

That was last year, and it will be back down sometime in the future, but in case you are forgetting this is now.

Wasn't when i purchased for a friend when i had prime. It will be back down to £30 again at some point.

Has been this price for awhile also same price on Amazon.

Which version?
