TTT - EE DVD Release

Ok so The Two Towers - Extended Edition - DVD will be officially released next Tuesday (11/18).

Does anyone know if this DVD set will include free admittance to the showing of ROTK? I’d liked the fact that I deducted the ticket price of TTT theatrical release to the price of the FOTR EE DVD. It brought the price down from $25 to $16.

I’ve checked lordofthering.net but it doesn’t mention it and I can’t recall if they mentioned it as a selling point for the FOTR EE DVD.

Although it won’t stop me from buying it I’m just wondering if I should expect it.

The only thing I’ve heard about it was that there was a $5 mail-in rebate.

I’ve read a few reviews and IIRC none of them mention it.
Guess we will find out soon enough.

Some posters over at TORn’s movie message board, devious enough to get their hands on the EE early, say that there isn’t.

Oops, belatedly found the thread mentioning this fact. If you look at the thread, also check out some cut scenes that didn’t even make it into the extended edition. Spoilers, obviously.

Pretty frightening.

Don’t think there is a ROTK ticket, but the EE is fantastic. More dialogue to flesh out the characters, a few new scenes (mostly Merry & Pippen stuff), a bit more exposition from Gandalf. The pacing is better than the theatrical release, running time is 3:35 (without the closing credits). I will definitely be buying the EE DVDs next week.
