If you want to play this, or any of my other scenes back in 5.1 you'll need to download the video with a program like youtube-dl and play back the file locally. YouTube still keep the 5.1 track but don't play it back anymore for some reason.

This is the kind of movie that when you see more than two minutes, you want to finish the whole trilogy.

[xenomorphlover]

Anyone else still getting goosebumps after 20 years watching this....

[TheGospodinmichail]

"But there were SOME... who resisted..."

Proceeds to show thousands, upon thousands of soldiers, marching in unison against the encroaching darkness. Absolutely love that line, its delivery and the scene's transition.

This is still a masterpiece intro. In less than 5 minutes, you understand the history, the major conflict, the plot, and the major players of the piece, while being immediately engaged by the epic battle scene, which helps hold your attention through the subsequent slow part of the film that introduces the hero.

[Sumboooodeeey]

This is easily the most memorable opening scene in film history.

No question.

Every time I hear Kate Blanchett voice narrate the beginning of the story it gives me the deepest chills I've ever felt

[TJSaw]

How is it possible that inspite of seeing something a thousand times, you still don’t get bored of it? The Lord of the Rings is untouchable. Unparalleled. There is no movie that comes close to it.

[firefly]

There will never be another trilogy like this ever again. Movies like these just don't get made anymore. True perfection

[joaquingalindez]

I just came here after the Ring of Power announcing to say: no one can top Cate Blanchett's voice in this epic monologue opening. Truly outstanding 👏👏

[DZatheus]

"But the power of The Ring could not be undone..." I love that line.

[AtiShard]

The drums thumping as Sauron enters the battlefield gives me chills every time.

[Maximusx]

It is refreshing seeing everyone come back here to remind themselves of this masterwork of an opening to the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

[ricardopalma]

And one 4K Bluray LOTR version was gifted to the fans, who above all else desire quality

[Bithernot]

The way the actress says "I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air" is truly thrilling and immersive.

Jackson had 5 minutes to make a good first impression. In less than 3 he captured the world.

I grew up with my dad telling me these stories before I could really comprehend the writing myself. When we went to go see Fellowship in theatres, this scene alone told me it was going to be the greatest thing I've ever seen.

When we got out of the theatre, I asked my dad what he thought of the film. He said something I'll never forget: "It was everything I've ever wanted to see."

[gregorygrandjean]

Now I have to watch the whole trilogy again...

[thahoule]

"And into this ring he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life."
Idk why but the way she delivers that single line...it makes Sauron sound so badass and bottomlessly evil. Perfect introduction for the perfect fantasy villain.

[mysticdragonwolf]

In 5 minutes, this intro covers nearly 3000 years, sets the stage, introduces multiple characters with strengths and flaws (majority who are dead later on and the narrator we don’t even know till later on), and why we should be rooting for certain characters

This intro did in 5 minutes what the Ring of Power couldn’t do in neither intro, episodes, and even a billion dollar budget
