I've seen clips and quotes from the LotR behind-the-scenes bits for years, but I only actually watched it all recently. There's like 12 hours of it and it's all fascinating!
There are tons of great documentaries out there and it was always a surprise to discover them. Especially when the dvd case listed it as a featurette and it turned out to run for 60 minutes or so.
The Bladerunner documentary I think is about 3½ hours long, The Frigteners has one that lasts 4½ hours. 12 Monkeys has one called The Hamster Factor and Other Tales of 12 Monkeys which is excellent.
But sometimes, they can be disappointing. Indiana Jones & the Dial of Destiny comes with an hour long documentary but it's terrible (in my opinion).
You know those promo interviews that are edited with quick cuts of behind the scenes action and everyone says how great making the film was. It's that for an hour. I lasted 20 minutes.
It's not like the old days where it focuses on one aspect like a certain stunt or sequence and then breaks it down and talks to the relevant people. It's just all over the place.
