The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring 2001
“I would have followed you, my brother. My captain. My king.”
If you've never seen the extended editions of these films you are sorely missing out. They are the only versions I will watch. The theatrical cuts are tighter but lack depth in some areas.
