Except the pan and scan, of course.

PJ has clearly stated that he doesn't disavow the theatrical version at all - the theatrical version is his cut. True, he wanted the gift-giving scene retained and a couple other things, but he agreed with NL FOTR needed to clock in at or under 3 hours.

I loved FOTR and want the version I first saw in the theater. Plus, there's the TTT preview, the extended version preview, all the little featurettes from the website and making-of specials on DVD. Gotta have it, no question.

It goes without saying that I'll get the SE collectors set in November...35 minutes of added scenes, more extras, gotta have it. Besides, my name is in the end credits. Along with thousands of others. Howard Shore had to compose 19 minutes of extra music to cover the crawl of fan club members names.
