Braveheart > March 16th, 2005, 07:44 AM
I was bored at college so thought i would write this!!!:wave:
Wot is every bodies favourite part in the films. We will start this thread with the Fellowship, and progress through the films in due course.
I would say my favourite part in the Fellowship is the fight scene in the forest... cannot remember the name of the area of the top of my head.
This scene shows the compasion between the group even though one of them has been possessed so quickly!!:bug:
What do others think!!!?????????:confused: -

The scenes in Moira would have to be my favorite part. So much of it was just as I'd envisioned it while reading the books. I had also been concerned about how they would present the Balrog, since it was described as "fire and shadow" in the books and I doubted they would make it look very good with that description in mind. But I found it was an excellent depiction when it finally came onscreen. -

Too true...how 'bout that first shot once they escaped the mines...my eyes reacted just as they would have if really coming from a dark place to one of great light. But my pick for favorite scene would be the fight between Aragorn and Lurtz...so many great elements...Aragorn pinned by the shield, knocking the knife away with his sword, and the coup de grace(literally)...well! :clap: -

Wow, there's so many to choose between.
The whole Moria sequence is fabulous, the battle against the Troll, the confrontation between Gandalf and the Balrog and the scene when they escape the mine after Gandalf's fall. The sense of shock and bereavement portrayed, together with the amazing music is just fabulous.
I also really like the bit when Aragorn is letting Frodo go and then the Uruks arrive, the death of Boromir and Frodo's decision at the side of the river - again the music makes this scene for me. -

Sorry mate!!!
Just wanted to get a breif overview of what people enjoyed about the films the most!
It would appear that some of you think the music has a lot to do with the films. I agree! Even before the films came out on VHS or DVD i was planning to purchase the soundtracks. I think i may have went over the top though. I bout the standard seperate soundtracks, followed by a compilation called the Music of Middle Earth, and now i have one that includes music from the EE versions! -

One of my favoutite scenes is when the representatives of every race (the good guys ofcourse) arrive in Rivendell. Verry nice.I also liked the transformation of Isengard scenes and the death and "water burrial" of Boromir (an emotional and heroic scene). -

Yes i must admit this is a great scene! It shows the different races knowledge of the history of not only the ring but the people of middle earth. For example it would appear that no-one except Gandalf, Frodo, Aragorn and Elrond knew about the rings extended existence. Also Legolas was the only one, except Elrond and Gandalf that knew who "the meer ranger" was.
This highlights another change from book to film. In the book Strider (read Aragorn) changes back into his rangers ragged clothes for the consul of Elrond. However in the film he is dressed in Elvish gear. Why? -

Aghh, such a hard question! I really like the scene where the four hobbits are hiding off the path under the tree and one of the Nazgul is prowling around above. I remember the first time I saw FOTR on the big screen, I thought the Ring Wraiths were really scarey and totally well done! -

My favorite scene in LoTR has to be the conversation between Aragorn and Boromir in Lorien. -

"...my brother, my captain...my king " yes, that was great! (I got to see the prop of "dead" Boromir when that exhibit came to Boston...it was so lifelike it was chilling!) Anyway, I noticed that the last post concerned TTT...are we moving on, then? My favorite scene is one of the added ones...Boromir with Faramir.I can't imagine that film now without seeing those two interact .

Yes the scene with the arrival at Rivendell was magical, had definately convayed the immortallity, perfection and magic of the elves.
Boromir death scene was pretty special too. "I would have followed you"... "Have you ever seen the white city... have you ever been called home" I think these were said with such feeling that the audience begins to feel deep sympathy for Boromir (not just because he has been shot with 5 arrows) but because he was only corrupted because he was weaker in heart. He could have been a vital companion in the fellowship later in the tale.
My personal favourite is the part leading up to this where Frodo and Aragorn are having a heart to heart "I would have come with you to the very fires of Mordor"... "Run, Run" Then Aragorn kicks some Urakhi butt, real kingly!!!!!!!!
