On November 4th the Extended Edition Blu-Ray and Blu-Ray 3D of the second Hobbit film will be hitting stores. This new Extended Edition will include 25 more minutes of film footage and up to 9 hours of bonus features. You can look forward to commentary from Peter Jackson and Phillipa Boyens, the continued Appendices covering pre-production and filming of the movie, and a piece on New Zealand as the home of Middle-earth.
You can watch one of the deleted scenes that will be appearing in the Extended Edition below:

Great extra scene.
However much I moan about these films (which is quite alot) I do like them really. I just get annoyed when they drift away from the real story.
only 25 mire minutes? Tolkien Prof. would be so disappointed 😀
Hadn’t realised they were planning to do these extended cuts for Hobbit as well, bonus!
