The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - Movie Club Discussion!
This one is probably my favourite in the series, though it's very close with RotK.
To start us off, [b]what is your favourite scene from the film?[/b]
Mine is probably the council scene where they're deciding what to do with the One Ring. I love when Legolas stands up and defends "Strider". [url=https://youtu.be/RRzVYYESyv4?t=2m8s]Click here to watch the scene.[/url]
Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn) was honestly the perfect Aragorn for me. He travelled just about everywhere by foot to get the weathered, travelled look; he always carried real metal weapons and proper gear (armour) so that he could always feel the weight of it and be conscious of it; and he even deflected a real knife that could have done some serious damage to him (or even killed him) during the film. For those who don't know, when he's fighting the Uruk-hai leader, the actor playing the Uruk threw a real knife at him (not knowing it was real). Additionally, it slipped at a full speed throw and went straight at Viggo's head. His instincts kicked in and he perfectly deflected the knife, even shattering part of the blade.
[u]For those who have not watched it or want to watch it again, sound off when would be good for you and we'll set a date and create a live chat so that we can all talk as we watch![/u]
Please also ask any discussion questions that you might have!

My favorite parts in the entire trilogy go like this: Fellowship Of The Ring: The Last Alliance and the extended version of the Amon Hen battle. The Two Towers: Gandalf vs. The Balrog, Easterling march, Sam's speech, Theoden's "Horse and Rider" speech, seeing Osgiliath for the first time, and the banter between Legolas and Gimli during the battle of Helm's Deep. "I won't let no pointy eared elf outscore me!!" Return Of The King: Siege of Gondor/Battle Of Pelennor Fields (extended), Cirith Ungol brawl (extended), march out of Minas Morgul, Sam vs. Shelob, and the Battle Of The Black Gate

Also when Aragorn kicks the helmet and screams, he yells like that because Viggo Mortenson missed the prop helmet and kicked the 10-pound helmet, breaking his big toe

Old friend how are you?!

1 ReplyThe sence in the second movie when Aragorn think he failed Merry and Pippin. He kicks a helmet away and screams in agany. Later I found out that helmet prop was not meant for kickin and thuz it was rock solid when the actor kicked it and he broke 3 toes. So many great actors.

When they encounter the Balrog in the mines of Moira.

1 ReplyMy favorite scene was when Harry bought the enterprise and and killed Clint Eastwood with a lightsaber.
-
3 RepliesOh gosh. Where to begin. Scenes such as this one containing Gandalf's might were really epic for me. Boromir's Sacrifice, the Beacons of Gondar being Lit, and the scene where Eomer and Gandalf join the battle of Helms Deep were the most epic scenes for me.
-
Don't ever play the LOTR drinking game. You will die before they leave the shire.
-
When they enter the the Walls of Moria. That's my favorite sequence, from the pounding of the drums when the orcs hear them and begin the chase, to Gandalf's stand against the balrog.
-
"Summon the -blam!-ing eagles, Gandolf!" [spoiler]oh.. [/spoiler]
-
When they kill Shawn Bean
-
2 RepliesBoromir's sacrifice as his way of redemption
-
Love Boromir's last stand. Is it okay to say he was my favorite character in that movie. :P
-
Drums... Drums in the deep... [spoiler]That and gay Hobbits.[/spoiler]
-
7 RepliesIt was a book first.

2 RepliesViggo is just an amazing person all around. He did all the riding in the movie as well. Hell of a cowboy. If you haven't watched hidalgo that's another great role he has played. He actually bought the horse that was "hidalgo" in the movie because he liked him so much.

1 ReplyI love the grand scale battle scenes even tho most are cgi, they still look very cool. Especially the battle against sauron in some of the flashbacks. The way the elves fight as a unit is so cool to watch

The a Moria fight scene is pretty cool but I like the later LoTR films better than FotR

He actually deflected areal knife? That's amazing.

1 ReplyThat was real?? Damn! That fight was my favorite one in the movie.

5 RepliesEdited by Relyks: 12/9/2016 9:17:34 AMThis one too. This is the real link to the gif. It's quite long and has crashed my iPad every time I'd try and watch it. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XR23o6rnjjI/Vwp5F_dkytI/AAAAAAAEE-I/SvaggctTIKg_fCcZkFtopH3TzJoYj80MQ/w426-h237/7b6949a30870c9f9.gif
