For starters, what else can be said about the film series? Countless scholars, critics and bloggers have given their take on varying subjects within the movies. Also, there are so many things you could say about them. However, Lord Of The Rings has been my favorite film series for a long time.

In this first Lord Of The Rings film, characters are developed, as well as the relationships they build; their commitments, their connections, and with this the movie develops drama. When people stay true to their word, even in the face of impossible odds or defeat, it speaks to our hearts. To watch characters like that in those circumstances is for me at least the most valuable form of entertainment. Think of your favorite film or TV character, and think what is it that makes him or her so special for you.
The next part of the story has to be grander than its predecessor. The stakes need to raise, and consequences have to be more dire. They do this by introducing us to new characters and locations to which the story and we as the audience will be emotionally invested. By the end, we have one of the best, most impactful and visionary war sequences ever put on film.
Filmmakers and showrunners the likes of Avengers and Game Of Thrones have said they based off their scenes on the Helms Deep battle.
