    you're outta yer goddamn mind. the LOTR trilogy is up there for me too for fave flicks :)

    LOTR trilogy was fantastic but I guess that genre is not for everyone.

    i suppose...i wasn't keen on seeing the first one for a long time because i'm not usually into fantasy-type movies, but finally relented. it's a solid, timeless story and visually gorgeous.

    It truly is. The cinematography in that movie is top notch. That alone makes it a great movie.

    not only that but the jumps from huge sprawling CGI shots to like handheld camera battle scenes, especially in the helms deep and minis tirith battle scenes are amazingly well done. you dont even notice the jumps.

    True. He did do a fantastic job with that movie. One of my favorite secenes, camera shot wise was when Faramir and his men where returning to Minas Tirith after Gandalf saved them from the Nazgul. The camera pans and follows them on the field from a distance and all you can hear is the wind and a faint galloping of horses. Amazing scene beautifully shot.
