    Two Towers

    I've got it, seems Sainburies released copies to stores today?, and Tesco's followed suit. Not bad when i went food shopping tonight, and now have this to watch over a nice few days off

    Do you have to swap discs over again like in the first SE to see the whole film?

    OK will SOMEONE PLEASE go and look on HMV or the bloody official site and prove to these people that the SPECIAL EDITION GIFT SET has 5 [FIVE] discs + statue of gollum and is released on the 17th nov @ £39.99

    (can't link to HMV or i would)

    yes the NORMAL extended Two Towers is 4 discs, but SPECIAL edition is 5.. ok so lets not disagree anymore.. please.. pfft

    and for those of ya who use amazon... they seem to not be selling the "5th disc" so wether thats their choice or they ****ed up when listing it i dunno, but its definetly 5 discs (been advertised)

    Yeah got this early too, couldn't wait although I'd like to own the edition released in November, looks sooooo much better, so many features right before the last installments released. Very, very sweet.
