15th anniversary of "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" - 12/19

[ck105 178]

Any fans of "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowhsip of the Ring"?  How has it held up after 15 years?

Still a very good film and start of the popular trilogy.  I still remember going with my sister to see this film despite being a LOTR novice and being amazed by it.  I knew after seeing the film I had to see the next two films.

I've never seen it

I remember watching the intro orc scene as a really young kid and being amazed at the cgi and the way they looked. Particularly this one:

As a young kid I would also repeat Galadriel's opening lines and pretend to be narrating the beginning of the movie. The series will always be near and dear to my heart and it's amazing how beautifully the movie has held up after all these years. The LOTR trilogy is one of the reasons cinema was made.

I watch them every year. It's a tradition. The best movies ever made. I'm such a huge fan. I read the books also. I love them so much that I wear the One Ring on my neck everyday and actually haven't taken it off ever since I bought it and put it on. Just watched The Hobbit last night (and even though it's less q than LOTR), felt so good

I grew up on LOTR & remember standing in line to go see "The Fellowship of the Ring"!  Had never seen CGI like that before & was TRULY amazed!!!  The triology is truly...

...and was the FIRST fantasy movie to sweep the oscars, which at the time I thought could NEVER happen...  

"The Return of the King" is STILL my number 1 favorite movie until this very damn day...

But there were some, who resisted. A last alliance of men and elves, marched against the armies of Mordor
