Forget it, didn't see the previous comment

So does each movie disc have half the movie?

@TheMrwouldyourather

Well in Vancouver the future shops still hold quite a lot, so I can't imagine they'd be few to none out there, although the price has gone up again since it was only that cheap for Christmas and boxing day.

@booshmaster82o Thinking of picking it up this Thursday, I live near Toronto. Any idea if Future Shop still has it in stock?

[TheMrwouldyourather]

@mrrocks3578 Yes the movies are split in two (each one), so halfway through you need to switch discs. It's not a terrible thing though. For example RotK extended is over 4 hours long, so that means around 2 hours for each disc. Besides, if it was on one disc for each movie, the quality would likely be greatly reduced.

Just curious what halfway for your sound system is. I've been playing this at a thirty on my system and I can hear it on all three floors of my house bellowing from way down in the basement. Great sound

@mrrocks3578 yes you'll have to switch discs

[mrrocks3578]
