With its otherworldly intrigue, wondrous sense of adventure, and incorporation of magic and mythical beasts, fantasy is understandably one of the most captivating and enchanting genres of cinema. Few would argue with the declaration that The Lord of the Ringstrilogy stands tall as the single greatest example of the genre that has ever graced the screen, with the epic story of Frodo Baggins’ (Elijah Wood) conquest to destroy the Ring as his allies rally the forces of Middle-earth to stand against Mordor still heralded as one of the greatest filmic feats ever seen over 20 years since the trilogy’s release.
