The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring’s movie was an adaptation of the book by J. R. R. Tolkien, who believed that, at the time of his death in 1973, the Lord of the Rings book could not be turned into a film. The movie was released on December 19th, 2001 in the fantasy and adventure genre according to IMDB. Most everyone has seen this movie and we all seem to love it. This movie gives us a sense of adventure by just sitting there and watching it while Frodo (Elijah Wood), and his eight companions, are on their journey to destroy Sauron’s evil ring. Most of us can say we have seen this movie at least a few times if not once and we all love it. This movie is the beginning to the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings. Peter Jackson had

The Shire was actually created in New Zealand and is the only set from the movie that has not been demolished. They even turned the set into a tourist attraction where you can buy a ticket and go see what it was like on set. It is great that they left at least one of the settings up on display for people to go see. Many fans would love to go see it one day, but who would not? It would be great to compare our size to the Hobbits size in the movie and see how the camera angles really affected the film. Even places such as Rivendell, the place where Frodo agreed to take the ring to Mordor to have it destroyed, catches our eyes because of the natural beauty. This movie emphasises the natural beauty of landscapes and what can be created on them. True fans could rewatch this movie over and over just to see all the beautiful scenery. That alone should get someone to at least watch the movie once. A large amount of money and time was put into creating this movie and it made so much more when it was first released and everyone wanted to see it. Rivendell, the sanctuary of the elves, was created almost completely of CGI and it was created using the real background of a New Zealand mountain. Steven Aoun from DVD Reviews said, “The breath-taking use of the New Zealand landscape convinces us that we might really be in middle-earth…” I also agree that the landscape did play a big part in the …show more content…
Specifically, I loved the sword fighting parts to the point that I could just go and watch people sword fight on YouTube for entertainment. Each had their own type of blades made by their individual races. The training must have taken a long time to figure out how to hold the swords correctly and where to strike so the other person would not get hurt during the filming. The choreography was one of the most important parts, adding this fantasy and adventure movie had lots of sword fighting. Everyone loves sword fighting, it is just really cool to watch and see how it all comes together and how it looks on the finished product. I especially like the part where Aragorn and Frodo were alone and Frodo’s sword began to glow, because the Uruk-hai were coming. This fight scene changed a lot in how the fellowship thought, because they had lost Boromir in this fight. It showed a lot of emotion when the fight ended and they saw Boromir had tried to steal the ring from Frodo and had died trying to protect Merry and
