I think it's actually flipped for me. New Zealand would've worked better for Beleriand than for Eriador. Eriador is Europe. It's got thousands of years of history. It should be littered with the ruins of previous settlements and roads and quaint English inns. There should be primeval forests like you find in Canada and actual plains for Rohan that don't have volcanic rock sticking out everywhere. Elves were good at reshaping the land. They would've moved stray boulders or broken them up or built around them. The Numenoreans would've continued that trend and they had millennia to do it. There's nothing "pristine" about nature in Eriador. Someone's been there before, and things are going back to nature. Ruins are being reclaimed. But there's still evidence of what came before.

Beleriand was just being settled. There was more open, untouched wilderness. I feel like Angbang would have that volcanic feel and would impact a lot of the world around it. I could see the plains before Angbang having volcanic rock like "Rohan" in the LOTR films. I can see the waters being clearer and unsullied. I feel like it would be more vibrant and colorful in the places where Morgoth's influence does not touch. It still wouldn't be completely New Zealand, but there are parts of Beleriand that I can accept as New Zealandish.

That's a good point about the ruins. Everything looked too new. They should have looked thousands of years old. I think I agree with everything you said. Although the scenery in LOTR was really pretty. But it wasn't quite right. And it all looked new, not as if it had been settled for thousands of years and had ruins of ancient cities.

Anon, it's Angband...

Don't care.

I hope you're not the one who wrote the wall of text because if you cared that much about the movies getting the landscapes right, you should care about getting the name of the main fortress belonging to one of the biggest bads right yourself.
