Gandalf asks for manuscripts of 3000 years ago and the librarian is just like "yeah we got those right over there"

[tindomul]

Who else spends their time watching different LOTR scenes and reading the comment section? :)

"This little maneuver's gonna cost us 17 years?!"

[FrankGordonA]

Only in LOTR is reading papers epic beyond belief

[ironcito]

I like how the Nazgûl stop to ask for directions 😄

[joeonoufriou]

Little known fact to those who haven't read the books - this sequence actually spans 17 years in the story. After the party and Bilbo leaving the ring to Frodo, Gandalf goes on a research quest, interrogates the archives at Gondor and confirms that Bilbo's ring is the One Ring 17 years later.

These movies were made 18 years ago, and the quality of the movie is so much better than what's being made now.

[FatGouf]

In the book, Gandalf went AWOL for decades after this scene.

[TheAwesomeDarkNinja]

This scene is literally just Gandalf reading a history book but it's so engaging. Masterpiece of a movie.

[LudietHistoria]

I hope they never reboot this. This thrilogy was absolute genius.

[royalhero]

I love how innocently Frodo picks up the ring when he enters, its such good symbolism for the purity of Hobbits as a race and their resistance to an evil which even the likes of Gandalf could not touch

Me studying everything the night right before the exam

[vbgggfff]

When he picks up that paper and starts reading in the dimly lit room you reaaaally feel like you have entered a whole new world.

[simontopler]

always loved how they incorporated minas morgul, osgiliath and minas tirith in this scene without explaining anything. someone who is unfamililar with the books wouldnt pay (too much) attention to these places while the experienced tolkien reader gets a first glimpse of things to come. you can also see that gandalf is still on good terms with denethor at this point in time (granted access to records that are thousands of years old). great!

[monstermunch]

The film is soooo well made and edited

[MrMexijorge]

3:31 "The year 3434 of the second age, here follows the account of Isildur, High King of Gondor and the finding of the ring of power!" I love that scene he is like reading history.

[Turboy]

The strength of character Bilbo showed by giving up the Ring was quite possibly the most powerful act in the entire story arc.

These films blew my mind back in the early 2000s.. and they're still blowing my mind now. Absolute masterpieces

[bluezilla]

For people who were around when these movies came out and got swept up in the magic of these movies, there really is a massive comfort in watching them again. Just instantly takes me back to the early 2000s and better times.

If there is one thing I will always praise these movies for it's sound design. Whether it be sounds of their footsteps as they move about or the crackling of the flames, the eruption of Mount Doom, you could hear so many things in each scene which made them feel real. Ridiculous how good these movies look and how 20 years later they still look and sound better than a lot of movies released today.
