As many times as I've seen the movies, I've watched the 'making of' sections a hundred times more. I've poured for hours and hours over every extra bit in the EE's, jealous of the actors for their 15 month vacation to Middle Earth, jealous of basically anybody who got to be involved in the movies, really, disgusted with my own artistic abilities because I know I'll never be able to create anything so beautiful, and in general agonies over how amazing the set, costumes, props, visual effects, etc. were. So yeah, my favorite part of the movies would have to be the visual interpretations of the world in which I spend most of my life anyway.
And the music, especially the pieces featuring Sir James Galway. The sound track paints it's own pictures, just as vividly as any in the movie. <3
