Feb 23, 2026
Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings film trilogy stands up as a beautifully wrought and faithful retelling of the J.R.R. Tolkien classic fantasy series. With the first movie, The Fellowship of the Ring, now over 20 years old, and with another adaptation on the horizon, it's time for many to revisit the Elijah Wood movies.
