The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King



The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
This film is the last of the amazing award winning trilogy helmed by Peter Jackson. The film is the sequel and finale to the trilogy and is based on the book series by J.J.R. Tolkien. The film brought back all of the cast of the past films. It was nominated and won all 11 awards at the Academy Awards in 2003(including Best Picture and Best Director), one of the only films ever to do so, while also being the only fantasy film to do so, as well as being the second sequel(after The Godafther Part II). The film had a score made by Howard Shore once again, as he has done all Lord of the Rings films, and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, and it's song "Into the West" by Annie Lennox winning Best Original Song and Score that year at The Academy Awards as well. Award winning special effects combined with all of the above gives this film a 8/10.
