Lord of the Rings is probably one of the best movies wherein probably anyone who have watched this movie will include it in their top 10 list of all time. the movie is epic enough that all 3 movies could have easily won an academy each and that even the academy rewarded the last movie with a handful of awards. the creation of this movie from story to dialogue, cinematography, supporting characters where all perfect. for me this is the best movie hands down.

I got the extended special editions of the Lord of the Rings. I loved the trilogy and can watch them about once a year. I like watching the featurettes too on how they made the movies and all they went thru to get the end of all three movies. It's all amazing to me.
