The Hobbit Extended Edition! :D

So I was cruising Facebook (procrastinating) when I saw that The Hobbit Facebook page had posted a video. I happened to remember seeing a clip of the Misty Mountains song on that page before An Unexpected Journey came out, so I looked a little closer. What cool stuff had they posted now?

Guess what I saw.

This! :D

A clip of a scene from the extended edition of the first movie!

It appears that the extended edition of An Unexpected Journey is now available. Everyone on my personal Facebook saw all the happy faces, so now I get to share the awesomeness with you, too. :D

Do you think that scene should have been left in the movie? Why or why not?
