![]() ![]() This is a testament to both the incredible talent of Peter Jackson, his writers, and the entirety of his filmmaking team and, of course, to the sheer magic of J.R.R. Regardless, most would agree that both the movies and the books stand on their own. In order to be faithful to the story Tolkien was telling, Peter had to move the Shelob sequence to Return of the King as that was what was happening at the same time as one of the centerpieces of the third installment.

Listen to trailer music, OST, original score, and the full list of popular songs in the film. Tolkien wrote huge stretches of the story in one or two POVs then switched to completely different POVs that ran in parallel.

However, due to the structure of Tolkien's chapters, the chronology isn't as important as it is in the films. This battle is The Battle of Minas Tirith, which takes place in "The Return of the King". It's a shame that he isn't doing the hobbit (or halo) However visionary director of hellboy 1,2 and pans labrynth, Guillermo Del Torro will at least match jacksons work for sure.In the book, there are references to a giant battle happening off in the distance while Frodo is escaping Shelob's nest. The lord of the rings will always be Peter Jacksons legacy. From the start to the incredible battle at helms deep! In fact it grips you as if you were a falcons prey. The films incredibly long running time never feels dragged out. sorry they fight and what an amazing sequence that is. Gandalf and the balroc have a nice cup of tea and sort out there differences, no wait that's not right. The story picks up from the end of the 'fellowship' we see Aarogon, legolas and gimli on a search for merry and pippin, whilst frodo and samwise still march on towards mount doom. This is still amazing 6 years on, Peter Jackson is a genius!!! I emplor you all to see this again if you haven't in a while.Įxcellent scenery, non-pretenicious dialogue a cast listing from the movie dream team and enough attention to detail to make you feel like this is actually happening. This movie truly does justice to the books that inspired it. With the second chapter under our wings, we shall soon have the one of the greatest stories ever to be told in the greatest cinematic form that we could have ever hoped for. Never once did I think to myself."that person doesn't fit the part".Īn absolute masterpiece is at hand. Not a flawed character in the bunch, and that includes all CGI characters such as Treebeard & Gollum. The actors performance were truly brilliant. Unlike the beautiful greens and blues of Fellowship Of The Ring, The Two Towers draws from the many "dead" colors of the world, and throws our beloved characters into the mix. Even the imagery in the film is very dark and contrasted. A tone where there is not much hope and things seem to be teetering on the end edge of permanent despair. The Two Towers plays on a very darkened tone. Like Empire, The Two Towers has no beginning and has no end, but does a greater service to the characters we have been cheering for since the first film. To compare this "middle movie" with that of another great in the world of trilogies, like The Empire Strikes Back is to say many wonderful things, as Empire is hailed by many to be the greatest in the Star Wars saga. Any fan of the books as well of the first movie will be thoroughly engulfed by the story of The Two Towers. The Two Towers as a film was absolutely amazing.
