God I fucking love this franchise
I’ve had a bit to drink, screw me.
Rewatching parts of the trilogy there will never be any movies better than these.
The scenes in the Mines of Moria are absolute top tier cinema.
The smallest most fragile beings delving into a dark all consuming abyss knowing that if they do not succeed the entire world will fall to shadow and flame.
The selflessness of the party knowing that if any one of the halflings fall it could well be a mortal blow that leads to the end of the fellowship and their journey at large.
The elves, men and dwarves giving their complete effort to ensure Frodo makes it through the hellish dark.
God the music, the music rips you from any real works concerns you had and throws you directly into the same nightmare these hero’s are facing.
We will never see a better adapted movie in our lifetimes.
