    What do you say about something magnificent? I didn't enjoy the part where Gandalf was thrown about as I did the rest of the movie, it was too sad seeing him thus. The music throughout the movie was beautiful, timed perfectly and fitting every scene. This movie stays to the book, though there are many differences, there is no introductions of new characters (as in Ella Enchanted) and the cutting out of some characters (Tom Bombadil) is necessary, otherwise the film would probably be much lengthier, not that I would mind at all.
    I will always be a fan of this incredible trilogy, and I will never grow tired of watching any of these three movies.

    "And what's with that gay fucking look, I thought Sam was going to saunter over Frodo and suck his fucking cock. Now that would have been an Academy Award worthy ending."
    Still awesome thought...lol

    Peter Jackson & Weta did a great job translating this to the big screen, one of my favorite stories.

    the first instalment of the lord of the rings trilogy is a great masterpeice this has to be the best adaption from book to film ever made. if peter Jckason did not make this film i do not see any film director apart from him making this film. the lord of the rings the fellowship of the ring has a great cast and here it is
    Dominic Monaghan, Elijah Wood, Hugo Weaving, Ian Holm, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler ,Orlando Bloom, Sean Astin, Sean Bean, Viggo Mortensen, Andy Serkis ,Billy Boyd ,Christophe Lee and Cate Blanchett. the specail effects for this film were really great and the best i have seen. the fellowship of the ring has to be the best film of the year 2001. the best way to watch this film is on the extended edtion.

    Overall it's sequels have a lot more memorable battles and such. But it's still ground-breaking one of the trilogy.

    Amazing! Peter Jackson did a tremendous job at adapting the greatest book series of all time into the greatest film series of all time. Blows Harry Potter out of the water in so many ways. I hope he will direct the Hobbit, couldn't imagine anyone else.

    This movie had great graphics,special effects, and the storyline was well planned out.
    The scenes created in this movie were dynamic. From the simple village to the elaborate Elfin village. It is a movie that needs to be seen on the big screen to be able to see all the details, although i think you'd have to see the movie several times to catch most of the details.
    The special effects are not over done. If fact some of them are almost realistic. I love how they make the fantasy creatures move and interact with the real actors.
    The Lord of the Rings books are classic and timeless. They were popular and widely read in the late 60's and continue to be widely read today. The movie still has the essence of the book, even though several items had to be omitted. What a great way to escape into another place and time, even another world!

    Those of us who have read the Lord Of The Rings can see what was edited to provide room for for the meat of the story. I too love Tom Bombadil dearly. However, he would have been trite by comparison to the meat of the story and that would not have served his character well.
    The reason that Tom and his Goldberry were in the book was the same reason for starting the book in the shire. Simply put, you have to know what it is you are fighting to save or what is the point in the battle?
    With all that said, I am so pleased to have been able to see a movie I had always dreamed would be made. Perhaps it will inspire other directors and producers to move ahead with other projects, such as The Dragonriders Of Pern.
    Ten stars would not be enough to rate LOTR.
