Ahhh, noooo... now I have to buy them! How "extended" are they?
Instead of being just over 9 hours long, the extended editions extend the saga to 11 and a half hours in length. So, they're basically the Holy Grail of director's cuts and most of the extra scenes are very good. I highly recommend them.

lets see just finished Breathless by Dean Koontz which while not a religous book has an interesting theory debunking darwin based on mathematics.
And I'm currently reading Eaters of the Dead by Michael Crichton.

I'm currently reading the graphic novel "Noah", upon which the recent movie was based. My whole faith is now in jeopardy! (just kidding)

I read both Killing Lincoln and Killing Kennedy, and I thought both of those were great. He makes the typical historical non-fiction more interesting, in my humble opinion.

Okay, I just finished the "Noah" graphic novel.

I'm about to begin "Guillermo Del Toro: Cabinet of Curiosities." It looks like a great book concerning his thought-processes and concept art etc. for his movies. I'm looking forward to it.

I recently finished The Rook by Daniel O'Malley pretty decent book if you liked the The Hunger Games. Now I'm reading one of the two books that my english teacher recommended to me, Good Omens. After I finish that I might start with the 2nd book she told me to read American Gods.

"American Gods" is quite good but rather adult at times. Just be warned. "Good Omens" is a lot of fun. The vast majority of it is a real scream - hilarious! Who would've thought Neil Gaiman and Terry Prachett would've made great writing partners?!
