We have no idea how long the film, which you can normally buy on Google Play for $12.99, will be a free download so you’d better act quickly. And if you find that you want to watch even more of the epic trilogy after the first movie, note that Google is selling both The Two Towers and The Return of the King for $6.99 each, which is $3 less than their regular price. All told, then, you can get three of the best fantasy films ever made all at once for just $14.
