A friend forced me to watch 'The Lord of the Rings,' and even though it was a fantastic movie, I could only watch one.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Man, I love the 'Lord of the Rings' movies. Some people would say I'm weird for liking those types of movies, but they are so cool.
Lord of the Rings was just so much enjoyment. It was over about the space of a year that I was filming. It's one of the most enjoyable things I've ever done, so emotional.
I hadn't grown up with 'The Hobbit;' I hadn't grown up with 'Lord of The Rings,' anything like that.
I actually watched 'Lord of the Rings' right when it came out, so maybe 2001 or 2002 or whenever that was. But I watched those movies, and I ended up loving them so much that I found every behind-the-scenes feature and every sort of 'making-of' clip they had.
'Jurassic Park' and 'Star Wars' shoved me into loving sci-fi and film in general when I was a barely coherent 3-year-old. And 'Lord of the Rings' took me to another planet entirely. Before that series, I knew I loved writing, but after, I knew that I had to write.
I love the 'Percy Jackson' movies. That was my big break. I love the people I worked with. It was a really magical experience for me.
It's hard to see a film that's been made from a book that you really loved because it's such a different experience.
I loved the 'Chronicles of Narnia.'
I was fascinated by 'The Lord of the Rings' from about the age of eight, and that lasted well into my teens.
Lord of the Rings was something I always wanted to do. I read the book when I was about 25, and I was always hoping if it was ever made into a feature film that I would be involved in some way. And then I finally got it, and I was over the moon. It was fantastic news.
