THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING (2001) MOVIE REACTION - FIRST TIME WATCHING

Welcome to my first-time watching as we react to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001). This was my (Ari) first time watching and I was completely mind blown by how expansive this film is. There was so much to love in this film, the breathtaking landscapes, memorable characters, and the beginning of Frodo&quest to save Middle-earth had a grip on me from the very beginning. Starring Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, and directed by Peter Jackson, "The Fellowship of the Ring" transports us to J.R.R. Tolkien&richly imagined world. The film does an excellent job at delivering exquisite storytelling and exploring some of the intricate details of Middle-earth. There were so many elements that kept me engaged, the bonds of friendship, the allure of magic, and the impending darkness that sets the stage for an epic trilogy. It&clear to me why so many love this trilogy and why "The Fellowship of the Ring" became a classic. This is the beginning of an epic journey and I cannot wait to experience the rest. We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussions as we delve into the film&themes and how it impacted the fantasy epic genre. #TheMediaKnights
