I once watched the extended cut in a cinema, all in one sitting. If I remember correctly, we started at 9 in the morning and went home after 10 in the evening. It was really cool. There weren't many people attending. We got Chinese takeout in between and ate it during the second one, the cinema didn't care about people bringing in food. Some people a few rows away looked at us annoyed. Might've been the smell, but I think they were just jealous that we had real food.

It actually works great as a mini series if you watch it like a TV show over a week or weekend.
Also, if you can find the Hobbit fan edit called 'M4', that's actually worth adding into the marathon.

Is it better than the Tolkein edit? That's the one I am used to.
-
Yeah, they really went all out on the M4, loads of thought and time went into it.
Much better than the other one, I felt they only made a Tolkein effort.
-
Sorry, that one I'm not familiar with. Probably similar goals, although I think M4 is supposed to be one of the most ambitious. It certainly radically changed the tone and pacing. I didn't even bother finishing the original trilogy when it came out I found them so disappointing and generally boring.

The Tolkien edit removes the White Council & Dol Guldur storyline, right? Or am I thinking of something else?

In a parallel universe, people are watching LotR movies one at a time, and not the entire extended trilogy in one go. Pathetic.
my mother in law does this! Drives me insane! "I just wanted to watch the two towers". That's IT? You didn't feel the drive to immediately start RotK?
I watch them backwards starting from battle of the five armies.
I kept falling asleep they first 4 times, now it's second nature
