My best friend has the old EE set with all the behind-the-scenes. I still love that the DVD cases look like old books, it makes my nerdy heart happy.

Huh, well that’s a bummer. The behind the scenes stuff was a lot of fun, but if they’ve at least got the extended versions that’s worth getting. But yeah, the old box sets were awesome looking. My sister some that sound similar to that, look kind of like old books.

I have the old EE DVD box-set. It gathered quite a lot of dust before being packed away during a move. The extras and the easter eggs are part of their fun. I heard from people who have gotten the latest release that the modern tech enhances a lot of scenes, but also enhances the flaws in some of the CGI.
One of my favorite scenes of the EE Fellowship is Aragorn singing the Lay of Luthien.

Favourite scene has to be the chase to the ferry. Mines of Moria was pretty good too. This film was, I think, the best of the bunch overall.

Huh, I see.
Well, maybe when they put out the last seasons of the outpost series I can buy that and all the re-mastered LOTR as well. Lol

My favourite scenes in Fellowship are mostly around the hobbits early on. I have the extended edition on both DVD and Bluray, so my answers include scenes from there.
1. The whole party scene, when the hobbits are dancing and having fun and when Merry and Pippin steal a firework, when Sam gets to dance with Rosie, and Biblo's speech. 2. When Merry and Pippin are singing and drinking in The Green Dragon. 3. When Frodo and Sam are leaving the shire, and they stop in the field and Sam comments that it is the furthest he has ever been from home. 4. When Frodo and Sam see the elves leaving. 5. Merry and Pippin escaping the farmer they stole crops from. 6. I don't know why, but this part always makes me laugh; "It is a short cut!" "A short cut to what?" "Mushrooms!" 7. Bilbo and Frodo being reunited in Rivendell. 8. Frodo telling Sam "I'm glad you are with me."
I could list so many more. Scenes I like not including the hobbits, are the Aragorn and Arwen scenes. I love that scene where Arwen uses magic to rise the water to wash the ringwraiths away. The council of Elrond is pretty great too. And that scene where Boromir sees the broken sword shards while Aragorn is reading.

I really enjoyed all the Shire scenes. Bilbo's party was really good.

I really enjoyed all the Shire scenes. Bilbo's party was really good. Yeah my dream is to visit the Shire some day. I especially love the theme music for it.

Agreed! The shire seems like such a beautiful and simple place. Always loved that.
