Lord of the
Rings ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Welcome to my Lord
of the Rings Page! Here you’ll find screencaps, quotes and sound clips
from Peter Jackson’s movie adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s masterpiece “Lord
of the Rings” in which Hugo Weaving plays Elrond Peredhil,
the Master of Imladris and keeper of Vilya, the Ring of Sapphire.
In this part
of the trilogy, the young Hobbit Frodo Baggins inherits a ring; but this ring
is no mere trinket. It is the One Ring, an instrument of absolute power that
could allow Sauron, the dark Lord of Mordor, to rule Middle-earth and enslave
its peoples. Frodo, together with a Fellowship that includes his loyal Hobbit
friends, Humans, a Wizard, a Dwarf and an Elf, must take the One Ring across
Middle-earth to Mount Doom, where it first was forged, and destroy it
forever. Such a journey means venturing deep into territory manned by Sauron,
where he is amassing his army of Orcs. And it is not only external evils that
the Fellowship must combat, but also internal dissension and the corrupting
influence of the One Ring itself. The course of future history is entwined
with the fate of the Fellowship. The Two Towers At the end of part one, following the death of Boromir
and Gandalf’s plunge into the pit at Khazad-dûm, The Fellowship was forced to
divide. Though splintered into three groups, each member of the original
Fellowship is no less determined in his heroic quest.
Across Middle-earth Aragorn, the Elf archer Legolas and
Gimli the Dwarf encounter the besieged Rohan kingdom, whose once great King
Theoden has fallen under Saruman’s deadly spell through the manipulations of
his spy, the sinister Wormtongue. Eowyn, the niece to the King, recognizes a
leader in the Human warrior Aragorn. And though he finds himself drawn to
her, Aragorn is constantly reminded of his enduring love for the Elf Arwen
and the pact they made together. Gandalf has been reborn as Gandalf the White following
his cataclysmic fight with the Balrog, and reminds Aragorn of his destiny to
unite the Rohan people with the last remaining stronghold of Human resistance
– Gondor. In their parallel journeys, the Fellowship will face
unimaginable armies and deception while also witnessing ancient wonders and
the untapped strength of their people. Together they must stand against the
powerful forces spreading from the Two Towers – Orthanc Tower in Isengard,
where the corrupted wizard Saruman has bred a lethal army 10,000 strong; and
Sauron’s fortress at Barad-dûr, deep within the dark lands of Mordor. The Return of the King With the final
battle joined and the legions of darkness gathering, Gandalf urgently tries
to rally Gondor's broken army to action. He is aided by Rohan's King Theoden,
who unites his warriors for history's biggest test. Yet even with
their courage and passionate loyalty, the forces of men--with Eowyn and Merry
hidden among them--are no match for the enemies swarming against Gondor. Still, in the
face of great losses, they charge forward into the battle of their lifetimes,
tied together by their singular goal to keep Sauron distracted and give the
Ring Bearer a chance to complete his quest. Their hopes rest with Frodo, a
tiny but determined hobbit making a perilous trip across treacherous enemy
lands to cast the One Ring into the fires of Mount Doom. The closer
Frodo gets to his final destination, the heavier his burden becomes and the
more he must rely on Samwise Gamgee. Gollum-and the Ring itself-will test
Frodo's allegiances and, ultimately, his humanity. (taken from The
