"There's a lot of character scenes, the thirty minutes is sprinkled right the way through from one end to the other, it's integrated into the film," Jackson told Empire Online. "There's a very famous sequence from the book where Galadriel gives the Fellowship gifts, which we didn't have in the theatrical release even though we shot it. There's a lot of really nice moments between characters. We carved the movie right back to keep the pace fairly relentless for the cinema but on a DVD you've got a little more flexibility. You can develop the characters more, there's more information about who they are, what they are and where they come from."
