I have recently read this from wikipedia.org
"Peter Jackson has stated that he would like to include some of these unused scenes in a future "Ultimate Edition" home video release (probably high-definition) of the film trilogy. They will not be re-inserted into the movies but available for viewing separately. This edition will also include outtakes."
And I am not sure about the capacity of the blu-ray disc to put a HD movie. Currently many blu-ray movies that are available comes with only 1 disc, and it is sufficient to put whatever extras you can find inside... I wonder if it is possible to squeeze all those extras into 1 BR disc INCLUDING the HD extended version of the movie.
According to wiki, there are also a lot of unused scenes, which PJ like to put inside:
Personally I hope the disc will include the ROTK NZ premier where they show the red carpets, the Nazgul, the crowds.... the whole nine yards of it... any significant worldwide premier footage are also welcome...
I would mind if PJ re-edit the end of each film such that it comes a 12-hour LOTR movie and fit it into ONE movie... i wonder if a BR has that capacity...
Hopefully by then, the price of BR will be more affordable, from what I am hoping for.... it looks like its going to be a 5 BR discs ultimate set..
... and of course... a SPECIAL 10th anniversay release SSW bust that comes with this set.... am I asking too much??!!
How do you guys wish for???

According to wiki, there are also a lot of unused scenes, which PJ like to put inside:
Many filmed scenes remain unused, even in the Extended Editions. These scenes remain omitted largely because many of them significantly change or add to the plot of Tolkien's original storyline. These include:
Additional footage from the Battle of the Last Alliance in the FotR Prologue.
An obscure shot from the trailers of two Elven girls playing about in Rivendell.
Scene mentioned in FotR commentary, about an animal disrupting Frodo and Sam while they sleep, after seeing the Wood Elves. Many animals were used, including rabbits and deer. [10]
Dialogue from the Council of Elrond, such as Gandalf explaining how Sauron forged the One Ring.[10]
An attack by Orcs from Moria on Lothlórien after the Fellowship leaves Moria. Jackson replaced this with a more suspenseful entrance for the Fellowship. Much of the lost footage can be seen as promotional material on the FotR theatrical DVD and tie-in books, documentary footage on the Extended Editions, and Trading Cards.
More Arwen footage, including a flashback scene of her first meeting with a beardless Aragorn (seen in the Two Towers teaser).
Faramir having a vision of Frodo becoming like Gollum.[13]
Footage of Arwen at Helm's Deep, cut by Jackson during a revision to the film's plot. Foreshadowing this sequence were scenes where Arwen and Elrond visit Galadriel at Lothlórien (seen in The Two Towers teaser trailer). The scene was edited down to a telepathic communication between Elrond and Galadriel.[13]
Théoden speaking to the troops in the armoury, prior to the Battle of Helm's Deep.
Éowyn defending the refugees in the Glittering Caves from Uruk-hai intruders.[23]
An unknown scene displayed in The Two Towers preview of Éomer lowering a spear while riding his horse in a forest.
A line of dialogue during the death of Saruman, in which he reveals that Wormtongue poisoned Théodred, giving further context as to why Wormtongue kills Saruman and Legolas in turn kills Wormtongue.[24]
A conversation between Elrond and Arwen in a library in Rivendell, after Arwen decides to wait for Aragorn. Elrond leaves saying "I cannot protect you anymore."[25]
Aragorn having his armour fitted during the preparations for the Battle of the Black Gate. This was the final scene filmed during principal photography.[16]
Sauron fighting Aragorn at the Black Gate. A computer-generated Troll was placed over Sauron due to Jackson feeling the scene was inappropriate. Sauron is also seen in a beautiful form as Annatar, giver of gifts.[16]
Also at the Black Gate sequence, Pippin was seen in the trailer holding a wounded Merry, a scene which takes place after the Battle of the Pelennor Fields upon Pippin discovering Merry under the mûmak.
Further epilogue footage, including that of Legolas and Gimli, as well as Éowyn and Faramir's wedding and Aragorn's death and funeral.[26]
