Someone who was born when Return of the King was released is now old enough to buy alcohol.

I did all three extended editions in a theater. It has premium seats and great food. It just wasn’t worth it.

I watched a triple feature of the extended edition in a cinema years ago. What an experience, to spend the entire day there. During a break we got Chinese takeout, the people from the cinema didn't care. But the people sitting in front of us were annoyed. Or jealous, because they didn't have this genius idea and instead had to eat the overpriced garbage from the concession stand. I prefer to believe it's the latter.
