Re: Lord of the Rings Movies

[(Anonymous)]

I really like the pacing. I am totally fine with the books' pacing in book form, but it wouldn't have worked in a movie at all. But the movies really made the events of the book work as well-paced movies very impressively.

Going off of that, I also really like the scenes that were combinations of multiple book scenes or served to replace long or fragmented explanations in the book with a vivid visual or pointed dialogue. I think those was really well chosen almost all the time.

I also frickin' LOVE the soundtrack.

And the original or appendix-inspired stuff with Arwen, especially in the first two movies.

Actually the only thing I really dislike is PJ's approach to most fight scenes. They have a very *insert fight scene here* feel. Meaning - they don't really feel connected to anything outside of the fight scene. The internal sequence of events within the fight scenes aren't flavored or spurred on by the context or the events that led up to the fight scene, and the fight scenes don't really change the tone or momentum of the narrative that comes after them. The worst example that comes to mind is the fight in Balin's tomb room in Fellowship. Everything that happens in that scene is not only utterly irrelevant to anything important like narrative flow or characterization or tone. It brings the creeping horror of being forced to relive the fate of the dwarves they just read in the book to a screeching halt and completely dissapates the atmosphere and claustrophobia.

However, the actual large-scale battle scenes like Helm's Deep and the Siege of Gondor are quite well done.
