But I got the extended edition for Christmas, and it's like a new film. The bits that are added in make the film appear more seamless, less rushed and pad out the story nicely. If Return of the King has an even greater amount to be added back in, chances are it'll be sensational. Not that it wasn't great already.

I feel the same way. I guess the people at New Line Cinemas felt otherwise though. I would have gladly sat through a five hour movie if that was how it was supposed to be. Watching the cut-up version and then waiting for the actual "extended" version sucks.
