I particularly enjoyed the extended version of Return of the King. The theatrical version, good as it was, was even better in the extended version. The scene where Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas went to recruit the king of the dead and his army to fight on his behalf was longer--in my opinion better--in the extended version, as was the scene where Treebeard was guarding Saruman. Overall the extended version gave more attention to the Aragorn character and a better look into his character; important because (after all) the returning King WAS Aragorn.
