[The Saucepan Man]

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> The whole sequence where the moth goes to Gandalf on the top of Orthanc is spectacular. I love the way the camera slowly follows the flight of the moth and then plunges down the side of the tower into the forges below. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Spot on, HC . That was a truly breathtaking sequence. It was certainly the scene that made most of an impression on me when I first saw FotR.<P>Although its not exactly a scene, another favourite part of the film for me is the look on Gandalf's face when Frodo volunteers to take the Ring. Such great acting by Ian McKellen. His expression is so full of meaning.<P>As for TTT, well the Gollum scenes are definately the highlight for me. An amazing combination of acting (by Andy Serkis) and CGI effects.<P>Most of the locations in both films took my breath away, but in TTT, I was particularly impressed with Edoras, the Black Gate and Helm's Deep, each of which was just how I imagined them. So all wide shots of these locations are amongst my favourite parts.<P>On, and of course the Ents' assault on Isengard. That's just one of those scenes you're waiting for all through the film. And then, when it comes, it is truly amazing. One of those "hairs standing up on the back of the neck" moments.
