Top 10 Best Shots in the Lord of the Rings Movies 10. With that in mind, here are my ten favorite shots from Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings. It is almost impossible, however, to make the five from the latter category different from frames inside my absolute favorite scenes in the movies.īefore I begin with my list, I will mention a few honorable mentions that didn’t quite crack the list: the lighting of the beacons, the One Ring in the snow in The Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo inside Mount Doom, Théoden’s death scene, and Aragorn saying “For Frodo” (which is actually my favorite scene in cinematic history). While all frames selected here are both beautiful and reminiscent of a great moment in the movies, I tried to include five where the power of photography overtakes the context and five where it’s the other way around. In the case of Lord of the Rings, there are too many shots that combine both qualities, and I’ll do my best to list them here.
When selecting a specific shot from any movie, and The Lord of the Rings, in particular, there are two possible arguments behind it - it can be purely based on its beauty, which would make it attractive to those who aren’t familiar with the source material, and based on the context of the scene, which might make it extra appealing to those who are familiar. It is almost impossible to pick our ten best, and even more, it’s pretty hard not to select all of them from The Return of the King, but I’ll try my best here. When watching the movies, there is an almost endless amount of shots one could choose as their desktop background or even hang on a wall, and they go beyond how beautiful they are. In The Lord of the Rings movies, director Peter Jackson and cinematographer Andrew Lesnie combined their forces to create some of the most memorable and best shots in the fantasy genre. New locations have been focused on, with plenty more treats to come.
With the premiere of the debutant series of The Rings of Power, fans are once again treated to amazing visuals and shots for Middle-earth.
