Steven Chapman has posted an inventory of the thirty minutes of new material in the Lord of the Rings Special Edition DVD.

I'm going to have to buy one now, though I will always harbor a deep, bitter, murderous resentment owing to the fact that I was tricked into buying the not-so-special one that immediately preceded it. Or maybe I should wait for the extra-special edition that will probably come along? Nope, I've got to have the additional "concerning Hobbits" bit, the full suite of Galadriel's gifts, and Gandalf's uttering of the Black Speech at the Council of Elrond. (Though, I have to say, I could probably do without too much more of Haldir.)

I wonder how many times they're going to be able to sell this material to suckers like me. Time will tell.
