The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is a 2001 High Fantasy film. The first chapter of the Lord of the Rings film trilogy adapting J. R. R. Tolkien's seminal novel saga of the same name, it was directed by Peter Jackson and released in December 2001.In the peaceful Middle-earth land of Shire, young hobbit Frodo Baggins inherits the One Ring from his uncle Bilbo during the latter's 111th birthday and learns of its origins as the artifact of power crafted by (and last remnant of) Sauron, the Dark Lord who once set out to conquer Middle-earth during the Second Age with his armies of Orcs and seemingly died. Frodo and three other hobbits, Samwise "Sam" Gamgee, Peregrine "Pippin" Took and Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck, are tasked by the wizard Gandalf the Grey to go to an inn. Once there, they meet a man named Aragorn, who was sent by Gandalf and helps them escape Sauron's dreaded heralds, the Nazgûls (or Ringwraiths). Gandalf meanwhile finds out that Sauron, while not having a physical presence, has returned and is rebuilding his forces in his kingdom of Mordor. Gandalf then gets betrayed by another wizard of his order, Saruman the White, who got corrupted by Sauron.The group arrives at the elvish city of Rivendell, where they are reunited with Gandalf (who managed to escape from Saruman's custody) and meet Gimli the dwarf, Boromir (son of the Ruling Steward of the human kingdom of Gondor) and Legolas the elf. At the council held by the elf lord Elrond, they band together, forming the eponymous Fellowship of the Ring, and set out for a dangerous journey towards Mordor in order to destroy the One Ring in the fiery mountain where it was once forged, the only way to rid Middle-earth of Sauron once and for all.It was followed by The Two Towers in 2002 and The Return of the King in 2003.

comment
Canon Foreigner: Lurtz, the Uruk-Hai leader, does not appear in the books; Boromir is killed by an anonymous Orc and his death goes unwitnessed, and Aragorn does not fight any of them. Lurtz was invented for the film to give the Uruk-Hai a face. His name is never spoken aloud in the theatrical release, and only appears in the end credits. However, in the Extended Edition, Lurtz's name is spoken by Saruman. Despite some initial fears that he was an entirely new character, he really wasn't much different from other "generic Uruk-hai leaders" already present in the book.

Creator Cameo: The prologue has cameos by: Senior prosthetics supervisor Gino Acevedo and prosthetics technicians Rich Mayberry and Xander Forterie as three of the seven Dwarf Lords who receive Rings of Power; Concept artists John Howe and Alan Lee play two of the Nine Kings; and Weta production worker Ben Britton and pre-viz storyboard shader Jason Secto play elves fighting in the Last Alliance. Peter Jackson in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance as "Albert Dreary" (a man eating a carrot) when the hobbits arrive in Bree. The hellish screeching noises made by the Ringwraiths were delivered by Fran Walsh, co-writer, producer and Peter Jackson's partner.

Simple Solution Won't Work: When Elrond and Frodo reveal the One Ring to the attendees of the Council of Rivendell, Boromir suggests using the Ring against Sauron. Aragorn immediately shoots that down: "The One Ring answers to Sauron alone. It has no other master." Elrond subsequently says that the Ring must be destroyed. Gimli promptly takes a swing at it with his battleaxe — and is Blown Across the Room and his axe's blade shattered.

Title Drop: "You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring." The names of chapters from The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings are brought up on occasion. On entering Hobbiton, Gandalf is delighted to see preparations underway for A Long-Expected Party. When Lobelia Sackville-Baggins comes knocking on the front door of Bag End, Bilbo whispers to Gandalf "I am not at home!". Gandalf whispers Riddles in the Dark, as he wonders if that chapter of The Hobbit might not be entirely true. "There is only one Lord of the Ring, only one who can bend it to his will. And he does not share power!" When the hobbits fall on each other after being pursued by Farmer Maggot "A shortcut to what ?" "Mushrooms!"

Stealth Pun: At the Prancing Pony, Merry comes back to the Hobbits' table looking pleased with himself, carrying a mug of ale that dwarfs (*ahem*) the others'. "This, my friend," he tells Pippin, "is a pint." "They come in pints?" asks a bewildered Pippin, before adding, "I'm getting one." What were the Hobbits drinking up to that point? Half-pints. Gimli's cousin, Balin, calls Moria, a dwarven mine and his (Balin's) own kingdom, a mine. A mine, get it?

Cruel to Be Kind: After their narrow escape from the Mines of Moria, most of the Fellowship is extremely distraught at the loss of Gandalf and stop just outside the exit to mourn. However, Aragorn orders Boromir to get them on their feet and continue the journey, answering protests of not giving them a moment by noting that by nightfall, the whole area will be crawling with Orcs fully intent on killing them or worse, and the Fellowship must get to safety before dusk.

Black Knight: Sauron from the intro of the opening wears a huge suit of armour, roars monstrously, and swings a gigantic mace everywhere, sending scores of soldiers flying with each blow. He is modelled after his former master Morgoth from Silmarillion, and the books (or at least the appendix) did mention him taking part in this particular battle personally, so at least it's fairly justified.

Hobbits are stated to have tough soles in the book — basically their feet are their shoes, and they have a lot more fur on them than depicted in the film.

You Shall Not Pass!

comment
You Shall Not Pass!: The Trope Namer, since Gandalf actually says "You cannot pass" in the book. He says both in the film, but the long, more meme-inducing one was "shall not." The entire final battle between the Fellowship and the Uruk-hai is another example, as the Fellowship attempts to buy time so Frodo can escape.

Forgot to Mind Their Head
 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_3cc17d05
comment
Forgot to Mind Their Head: This was a hazard both in and out of universe: During the scene where Gandalf visits Bilbo in his hobbit hole, Gandalf, stooping, accidentally backs into a chandelier (as part of the script). His actor Ian McKellen then promptly turns and accidentally smacks his head on the roof, an (unscripted) accident so funny that they left it in. In the gag reel, this happens also to the crew. Everyone's sitting inside the hobbit hole listening to directions, then when the meeting ends they all stand up and hit their heads on the roof. Then everyone falls to the floor.

Symbolic Serene Submersion: At the end of the movie, Sam follows Frodo's boat into the water despite being unable to swim, desperate to remain by his side. When he inevitably goes underwater, he flails at first, but then he goes limp and his face assumes a serene expression, demonstrating his willingness to die for Frodo (who saves him, of course).

Scenery Gorn: The film is made of Scenery Porn during the "good times" parts, and Scenery Gorn during the "struggling times" parts. The best example is probably the view of the ruination of the Shire in the Mirror of Galadrielnote the actual canon Scouring of the Shire was cut from the films, so this was Jackson's way of wedging it in. As Sam and Frodo say in the books, seeing your own home devastated when you remember it being pleasant is far more horrifying than some anonymous landscape that you never knew before it was ruined.

Immediately following Boromir's fall, Frodo and Sam trudge off on their own path while Merry and Pippin were plucked away by the Uruk-hai in the final battle, leaving Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli to start the hunt to save the latter pair of Hobbits while the former head into Mordor all by themselves. As the establishing part of the trilogy, cue the credits and, at the time of release, waiting until next year or reading the book to see what happened next.

comment
Extreme Close-Up: Galadriel's intro scene frequently cuts right up to Galadriel's eyes and then cuts back to the eyes of a member of the Fellowship. This is a visual adaptation of the narration from the book which makes clear everyone in the Fellowship felt Galadriel's eyes piercing into their soul.

 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_794f3589
comment
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: Tom Bombadil is cut from the film, along with the scene with where he rescues the hobbits from the Barrow-wights and takes their enchanted daggers which Merry uses to slay the Witch-king. Here, he uses an Elven dagger gifted by Galadriel which is never truly hinted or explained whether it's effective against the Witch-king of Angmar unless it's enchanted in a similar way with the books counterpart. Then again, it's a gift of Galadriel. Gandalf stops at Rohan in the first book before going to Rivendell, attempting to warn Theoden about Saruman's Face–Heel Turn - but Grima Wormtongue has already started poisoning his mind. This is eliminated from the film, so it's not explained how Gandalf is so up-to-date on what's been happening in Rohan.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Pippin's curiosity leading him to mess with a skeleton by a well in Moria, leading to the whole thing, chains and bucket and all, toppling in. Not only does this lead to them being attacked by a horde of goblins, it awakens the Balrog, and ultimately results in Gandalf's death.

Establishing Character Moment: Quite a few. Sam telling Frodo the promise he made to Gandalf in the beginning. ("Don't you lose him, Samwise Gamgee!") Merry and Pippin's mischief at Bilbo's birthday party. Boromir instantly suggesting the Ring be turned over to Gondor to use against Sauron. Legolas defending Aragorn against Boromir. Gimli grabbing an axe and attempting to destroy the Ring right at the council. Saruman chastising Gandalf for consorting with Hobbits. Lurtz chokes the first orc he sees within seconds of his birth. Gandalf arriving in Hobbiton for Bilbo's birthday party. All the children are excited to see him, while the adults look on disapprovingly (for the most part, one Hobbit laughs at a miniature fireworks display only to frown when his wife appears.) The first glimpse of the Lady Galadriel (other than the flash of her eyes that Frodo sees when he hears her voice in his mind) is her descending the stairs in Caras Galadhon with Celeborn in a blinding, majestic aura of white light. 'The Lady of Light', indeed!

Brutal Brawl: Gandalf discovers Saruman has joined forces with Sauron and a Wizard Duel erupts between the two of them. It's shown as a telekinetic staff fight, and without one laying a finger on the other the two wizards slam each other into stone walls and doors. The brutality is actually enhanced by the actors being elderly men. Likewise, Aragorn's fight with the Uruk-Hai, Lurtz; a brief, nasty scuffle that features Aragorn getting his nose broken by a headbutt, Lurtz stabbed with a dagger, and finally Aragorn lopping off his arm and head.

Rule of Symbolism: Christian symbolism is carried over from the books, although in a very discreet manner: When the Fellowship parts from Lothlorien, a white-clad Galadriel makes a blessing gesture◊, looking much like Catholic statues of Virgin Mary. They even used a statue of Mary as a stand-in at the tomb of Aragorn's mother. Jackson bows to Tolkien with subtle grace: the film opens in total darkness, and the voice of Cate Blanchett begins to speak... in Elvish. Because with Tolkien the languages came first, and then the people who spoke them, and their stories. In the beginning was the word...

Last Day of Normalcy: Bilbo's birthday party introduces us to all the characters of Hobbiton prior to their being thrust into their adventure, from gentle and thoughtful Frodo to loyal and simple Samwise, to the mischievous pair of Merry and Pippin (their role changed somewhat from the books, where they were more savvy to Bilbo's magic ring). This is a downplayed example, though, as while it does serve the purpose of showing the tranquility of Hobbiton, it isn't until Gandalf returns with confirmation of the nature of Bilbo's ring that Frodo is thrust out the door on an adventure.

The final film ends with Frodo going to the Grey Havens and leaving Middle-Earth with the rest of the elves. As Gandalf tries to lead the Fellowship through the Pass of Caradhras, Boromir picks up the One Ring after Frodo stumbles down hill and "drops" it. Boromir returns it after some hesitation and obsessing over it. Later, Boromir tries to take the Ring forcefully, having gotten a taste of its influence before. Boromir narrowly avoids being hit by arrows in Moria. Aragorn realizes that they're being followed by Gollum, but says that he's "too good a waterman" to catch. In The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King we see a flashback of Smeagol and Deagol pole-fishing from a boat, and Deagol proves to be a good swimmer.

Adaptation Dye-Job: Boromir in is described as having dark hair. For the movies they gave him light brown, bordering on blond.note In the books, Boromir looks a lot like Aragorn (they're related). The director probably felt that this would look confusing on film. The elves of Lothlórien are shown to be uniformly blonde, though only elves with particularly strong Vanyar ancestry, such as Galadriel, have blonde hair in the books.

Oh, Crap!
 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_ad1db87c
comment
Oh, Crap!: The film features many examples. A great one in the prologue battle when Sauron makes his appearance on the battlefield. These mighty Dúnedain have just mopped the floor with the Orcs and are about to declare their victory... then all of a sudden a black-armoured giant with a very big mace strides into their midst... Frodo in the first film, when he realizes that the two words Sauron's forces got from Gollum (Shire and Baggins) means that they know where the One Ring is and are coming to take it. Gandalf when Saruman informs him that now in knowledge of the One Ring's location, Sauron has dispatched some of his most lethal agents to get it back. Also Gandalf's reaction when Saruman reveals he is in league with Sauron and bars the former's escape from Orthanc. During the Skirmish at Weathertop, Frodo hears Sauron's voice emanating from the Ring and is tempted to pull it out of his pocket. He immediately panics as he realizes he just confirmed to Sauron's forces that he has the Ring on him.note Remember, at that point the Nazgûl had no idea which of the four halflings they were pursuing out of Bree bore the name "Baggins" and whether they had taken the Ring with them or hidden it somewhere. When Arwen summons a tidal wave to beat the Nazgûl. Granted, they don't have faces, but their behaviour is enough to convey it. In Moria: Gandalf's reaction to hear Goblin drums beating, as the denizens of Moria have realised there are intruders in their home. Boromir's deadpan "They have a cave troll." Spoken in an almost Graham Chapman voice. Legolas gets a pretty good Oh Crap look when he realizes there's a Balrog down there. The Moria Goblins are also similarly terrified. Elrond has an Oh Crap reaction to the fact that Saruman is breeding an Orc army of his own. An army that can move in sunlight. Aragorn and Legolas are busy fighting the Uruk-Hai on Amon Hen, when suddenly they hear the Horn of Gondor being blown frantically. "Boromir!!!"

Take a Moment to Catch Your Death: After he watches the Balrog fall through the pit of Khazad-dûm, Gandalf turns away from the lip of the broken bridge. Unfortunately, the Balrog manages to lasso Gandalf's foot as it falls, pulling Gandalf until he is dangling from the lip by his weak grasp. Certain that any attempt to recover would hinder the Fellowship, he bids them to escape the mine and lets go.

Gandalf stops at Rohan in the first book before going to Rivendell, attempting to warn Theoden about Saruman's Face–Heel Turn - but Grima Wormtongue has already started poisoning his mind. This is eliminated from the film, so it's not explained how Gandalf is so up-to-date on what's been happening in Rohan.

Deathly Dies Irae: "Dies irae" appears in the score as Bilbo's ring tempts him one last time before he leaves the Shire. It weighs heavily on him as he slowly tips his hand to let it fall to the floor, right after it has been made clear that there is something dangerous about it and it is likely the One Ring. Heard again as the Ringwraiths corner the hobbits at Weathertop. Also reoccurs as part of the motif for the forces of Isengard.

Improbable Aiming Skills: In addition to Legolas, who, as an elf, naturally demonstrates absurd skill, there's the opening battle of Mount Doom, where human archers shoot down orcs on the mountainside a good quarter mile away (long range for a modern infantry rifle, much less a bow). Perhaps justified if one accepts that it's Galadriel's recounting of events she didn't actually see but was simply told of.

Forced Perspective: Used to great effect to help the average-height actors playing hobbits and dwarves seem to-scale with their man and elf co-stars. Used in reverse in one shot: While climbing Caradhras, Frodo falls and drops the Ring. There is a shot of the Ring lying in the snow in the foreground. The filmmakers used a larger model of the Ring, 6 inches in diameter, in this shot to make it seem closer while still being in-focus.

Jump Scare: Gandalf knows something's wrong with the Ring that he had to pressure Bilbo into finally discarding, but he isn't entirely sure just what it's capable of as he reaches for it. The instant his fingers grace its metal, a hellish eye of fire appears with a screaming sound and a boom more akin to primordial thunder not even a quarter of a second. It's no wonder the next scene cuts to him watching the nearby fireplace in a stupor to separate his mind from the horror he witnessed and not even realizing Frodo has entered for half a minute.

The film begins with one. During the battle between the Last Alliance of Elves and Man against Sauron's forces, the Alliance nearly succeeds in driving back the forces of Mordor... only for Sauron himself to join the battle and singlehandedly turn the tide back in his favor. But ironically, this also counts as a Hope Spot for Sauron too. Right as he's crushing the Alliance and on the cusp of total victory, Isildur severs the ring from his hand, separating him from his source of power and destroying his physical body.

Adaptational Timespan Change: In the book, it's about sixteen years from Bilbo's farewell party to Gandalf's visit where the Ring-inscription is revealed, and a few more months before Frodo sets out on the Ring-quest. The film seems to condense the first interval to exactly as long as it takes Gandalf to make the trip to Minas Tirith and back, a few weeks or months, and Frodo sets out the next day.

comment
Offscreen Teleportation: Gandalf manages to move from Bilbo's party to Bag End before Bilbo himself gets there, even though he is seen sitting in the audience while Bilbo is running home, made invisible by the Ring. All without crossing paths with him, either. He is a wizard, but not even the most powerful beings in Middle-Earth can manage actual teleportation. Then again, like the other Istari, Gandalf isn't originally from Middle-Earth...

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: To the Ralph Bakshi animated Lord Of The Rings (Mr. Proudfoot the Hobbit with his feet up on the table, and the Nazgûl emerging from the tree as the four Hobbits hide in the roots); to The Wizard of Oz (Frodo, Sam and Gollum, on the cliff above the Black Gate, watch the Easterlings march in with their weird chantnote Jackson confirmed this was deliberate); Shaka Zulu (the pre-Battle Of Helms Deep build-up), Gladiator (Aragorn's dazed horse ride to Helm's Deep; Frodo being carried by the Eagles), and possibly The Wheel of Time; "History became legend. Legend became myth" During the duel between Aragorn and Lurtz, Aragorn stabs Lurtz through the leg with his dagger, and it gets stuck there until Lurtz pulls it out and tosses it back at him. A similar scene happens in Friday the 13th Part III, when Chris attacks Jason with a knife.

Shot/Reverse Shot: The movie gets across Galadriel's ability to see into the Fellowship's mind by cutting between an Extreme Close-Up of her eyes and then a member of the Fellowship. This goes on for each of them until we cut back to her from Frodo's face, when we hear her speaking telepathically into her mind.

comment
Taking You with Me: There are quite a few examples of this trope in the film: In the prologue, we see Sauron explode once the Ring is severed from his hand. Though this may be subverted as the affected scores of Men and Elves were more likely blown off of their feet than killed. The Balrog pulls Gandalf down the dark chasm with its fiery whip as it falls. Boromir takes down many Uruk-Hai as he is being pierced by Lurtz' arrows.

Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Merry and Pippin do this twice. When the cave-troll seems to have killed Frodo, they share a look and then leap onto its back, stabbing it repeatedly. (Their small blades affect it little, but Pippin is able to time one final strike so that it rears its head back and allow Legolas to deliver the fatal shot through the throat). The second comes after Boromir falls to his knees for the last time—Merry raises his sword and screams, followed by Pippin, and they rush the Uruk-hai—only to be effortlessly grabbed and carried away.

Myth Prologue
 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_d00fa9ec
comment
Myth Prologue: The film opens with the story of how the rings of power were forged (effectively introducing the races of Middle Earth in the process), how Sauron used the One Ring of Power to take over Middle Earth, how Isildur failed to destroy the ring once Sauron was defeated, and how millennia would pass before it was fished out of the water once again. Galadriel, narrating, mourns that there are so few still alive who were there to witness it. This is a deviation from the book, which opened on Bilbo's birthday in the Shire, and makes the mythic scope of the film more immediately obvious to audiences.

He is shown a vision of the Shire being destroyed, orcs slaughtering other hobbits, the four (Merry, Pippin, Frodo and Sam) chained and forced to walk, being whipped by orcs. Galadriel tells Frodo that this is what will happen should he fail in his quest to destroy the Ring.

comment
Homage Shot: Peter Jackson shot one bit at Bilbo's birthday party ("Proudfeet!") as an exact copy of a shot in Ralph Bakshi's animated Lord of the Rings. Jackson even helpfully points this out in the commentary. A circle-round shot of the four hobbits at Weathertop is also lifted from the original, although the camera moves much faster and Aragorn is absent. Same goes for the four hobbits hiding under a root by the wayside with the Nazgûl leaning in above them. Not exactly an homage shot, but the Nazgûl attacking the Hobbits' room at the Prancing Pony was drawn from Bakshi's film. In the books, it's explicitly stated by Aragorn that they would not have openly attacked the inn in this manner, and that their assailants were instead Men of Bree under their influence.

 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_f33ff01c
comment
Adaptational Context Change: Galadriel's iconic introductory voice-over was originally spoken by Treebeard in the book, where he laments to Gandalf about the past. The film has Galadriel reminiscing about the history of the Ring. Sam says the exact same line to Frodo at the end of both the book and movie: "Of course you are, and I'm coming with you!" In the book, Frodo has just said, "But I am going to Mordor!", but in the movie the line is changed to "I'm going to Mordor alone!", which makes Sam's response a lot more humorous.

Scary Symbolic Shapeshifting
 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_f3f6d99c
comment
Scary Symbolic Shapeshifting: Bilbo Baggins is normally a genial old hobbit, and even his many decades of subtle corruption by the One Ring seems to be little more than a blip on the radar by the time he turns up at Rivendell. However, while the Fellowship is preparing to leave Rivendell, he happens to catch sight of the Ring on Frodo - and suddenly lunges wildly at him, sporting sharp teeth and enormous, frenzied-looking eyes. Bilbo demonstrates no shapeshifting at any other point in the story, so this is just an indication that the Ring still has its hooks in him and could one day drag him down to the same level as Gollum.

Role-Playing Game 'Verse
 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_f76f8dd0
comment
Role-Playing Game 'Verse: An Unbuilt Trope. The book series itself predates role-playing games like D&D and in fact codified many High Fantasy tropes. However, after the Fellowship is formed and before it is disbanded, the plot and characters would fit right into an RPG verse: a party that includes a wizard, an elf, a dwarf, a knight, and a ranger set out on a dangerous journey to destroy an Artifact of Doom, facing many typical genre perils like monsters, bands of orcs, and evil sorcerers trying to thwart their progress. The second and third films avert this, being closer to epic war movies.

 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring / int_fe1d3a6b
comment
Kill the Lights: When Gandalf intimidates Bilbo to convince him to leave the Ring behind, the room darkens and his voice gains a menacing reverberation. He also seems to grow, though he may simply be standing up from a slouch. A similar effect happens during the Council of Elrond when Gandalf breaks up the squabble by reciting the ring couplet in Black Speech, though as this scene is outside, the darkening is less noticeable.
