Chapter 359 The perfect ending
Facts have proved that the story will always end one day, but it will not end here. The plot behind it will be more exciting.
Frodo and Sam went through various hardships and obstacles and finally arrived at Mount Doom. Gollum launched an attack on the two for the Lord of the Rings.
After the Battle of Minas Tirith, Aragorn, who was recognized as the king and returned, brought the remaining human coalition forces to the Black Gate.
He attempted to use himself as bait to attract the attention of the Eye of Sauron.
This is another battle no less impressive than the Battle of Minas Tirith just now, and Aragorn's pre-war mobilization is equally shocking.
"Warriors of Gondor and Rohan," Aragorn shouted, raising his sword, "I see in your eyes the same fear that I share.
There may come a time when humanity loses its nerve and our congregations become estranged and utterly defeated, but not today.
Maybe one day, evil will finally defeat justice and the human world will be destroyed, but it will never be today.
Today we must fight to the death! To protect everything you hold dear in this world.
Fight to the end..."
Noel's eyes widened and his heart surged. Classics could no longer describe this film. It had to be described as great.
It is indeed a great movie. Even the biased film critic Kenneth Turan has to admit that there are few movies in Hollywood that can match this series of movies.
What? "Shawshank Redemption" and "The Godfather" series? Sorry, everyone is not on the same track.
It's hard to find a better epic movie than "The Lord of the Rings". If you have to look for it, "Ben-Hur" from decades ago may be comparable.
But decades have passed, and in terms of graphics technology and performance, the "Lord of the Rings" series is much better than "Ben-Hur".
Because of Aragorn's restraint, the Orcs and the Eye of Sauron in the Black Gate were attracted to it. Frodo and Sam finally climbed to the top of the lava of the Doomsday volcano with difficulty.
This film has a three-line narrative, and then it converges one by one. Later, during the Battle of Minas Tirith, it became two lines.
After the Battle of Black Gate, it becomes a single-line narrative, preparing to draw a perfect end to the entire series.
At the end, it is Frodo's struggle and being bewitched by the Lord of the Rings. But his kindness pulled him back at the critical moment.
Gollum, who had beaten Sam violently, appeared again, snatched the Ring from Frodo, and then fell into the lava with the Ring.
At the critical moment, the reliable Sam grabbed Frodo who was about to fall into the lava. Seeing that he had no hope, the Ring finally melted into the magma of Mount Doom with Gollum.
This demagogic thing, which was the origin and end of the story of "Lord of the Rings", has finally disappeared.
And because of the destruction of the Lord of the Rings, the power of the Eye of Sauron also dissipated, and finally burst out with a violent dark light, dissipating between heaven and earth.
The orcs who originally besieged the human coalition led by Aragorn scattered like birds and beasts, and humans finally won.
The humans on the big screen are celebrating, while Zoe is worried about Frodo and Sam because of the eruption of the volcano. These two brave and kind hobbits must not die.
Noel secretly vowed to restart the protest if little Gilbert killed Frodo and Sam.
Obviously, little Gilbert certainly wouldn't let two brave, kind and resolute hobbits die like this. At the critical moment, Gandalf and his old friends the Eagles arrived and rescued Frodo and Sam.
Zoe couldn't help but cheer, this is a good ending.
Queen Galadriel doesn't appear much in the third film, except for one appearance in the middle and her appearance at the end.
Frodo wakes up from his bed and meets Queen Galadriel and Bilbo Baggins. Without the blessing of the Lord of the Rings, Bilbo Baggins looked much older.
Of course, there are also Frodo's three best friends, Merry and Pippin, and loyal Sam.
At the end of the film, Aragorn and Arwen get married in the palace square of Minas Tirith. Arwen decided not to leave and stay in Middle-earth.
Frodo Sam and four other hobbits accepted the salutes of all humans led by Aragorn.
At this moment, the diminutive hobbit seemed incredibly tall.
The camera slowly advances, giving a close-up of Frodo. This brave hobbit shouldered a mission and pain that was unimaginable, but he did it.
Then, the camera slowly increased, showing the entirety of Minas Tirith, and finally turned into a name on the map.
"The story has come to an end, and the fourth era of Middle-earth has begun. As for the Fellowship of the Ring, although their friendship will last forever, they also have their own end points..."
Finally, the map is closed, revealing a parchment book.
Frodo, who returned to the Shire, closed the parchment. The king had returned, and the movie came to an end.
The released version of the movie ends here, with a total running time of two hours and fifty minutes.
Although during the filming, the part where Frodo and others returned to the Shire and Bilbo Baggins and the elves went to sea was also filmed, this part of the story was planned to be included on the DVD by Little Gilbert.
Peter Jackson's version of "The Lord of the Rings" has a theatrical run of 3 hours and 21 minutes, which is really too long. Little Gilbert is not Peter Jackson, so there is no need to explain everything in the original work.
Moreover, these parts can increase the selling point of the DVD.
The thirty minutes saved from a movie can completely allow "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" to be screened one or two more times a day, which is a more advantageous choice.
Finally, the Gilbert Landrini Jr. directorial pops up and the cinema lights come on. However, the audience did not stand up and applaud, nor did they start to disperse after the end like they do when watching other movies.
Everyone was waiting quietly, watching the subtitles slowly roll by on the big screen.
Noel watched the credits roll and each credits list flash by, as if he was trying to write down the names of these people.
Great and amazing are not enough to describe the work done by the crew of "Lord of the Rings".
Noel knew that this summer was the last summer he would meet "The Lord of the Rings", and he wanted to feel this moment of separation.
In fact, it was not only Noel who had this idea, Doug and Zoe in Los Angeles, and Jack Zhao and Erin in San Francisco. Even at the premiere, various Hollywood stars became fans of "Lord of the Rings".
Naomi Watts held little Gilbert's arm and kissed him on the cheek: "My dear, congratulations, you have done an incredible job."
Scarlett and Anne Hathaway were chatting and expressed their envy: "Jacqueline, I'm so envious of you for being able to play the role of Princess Arwen."
Anne Hathaway looked happy: "It's okay, Scarlett, "Heartbeat" starring you will be released in November!"
Cameron Diaz is happily calculating her accounts. She has already begun to participate in the management of Cantaloupe Studio and is thinking about how much revenue can be enjoyed by Cantaloupe Studio this summer.
Although Melon Studios is jointly controlled by Disney and Warner, this film studio is very independent and its accounts are settled separately.
Charlize Theron chats with Jennifer Connelly: "This summer, this abominable person is dominating the summer season again."
This is not to say that little Gilbert is hateful, in many cases it is a nickname of affection and endearment.
Jennifer Connelly covered her mouth and smiled: "No, he is like this every summer, a headache."
Robert Egger and Doug Walter were all smiles.
"The Return of the King" brings not only box office profits, but even greater profits from peripherals and the stock market.
It is conceivable that when "Return of the King" becomes a hit, the stock prices of Disney and Warner Pictures will definitely rise, and the group's annual report will also look good.
Little Gilbert is our lucky star! With him, performance can be guaranteed every year.
The feelings of the subsequent directors, producers, and celebrity guests are complicated.
Tom Cruise took Nicole Kidman's hand and said: "I envy you, I have never starred in a movie that has grossed more than a billion dollars at the box office.
You have three movies all at once..."
Nicole Kidman smiled and pointed at little Gilbert in front of her and said, "You have to find him, Tom. We must maintain a good relationship with little Gilbert."
Tom Cruise nodded: "This is necessary..."
Ridley Scott only felt the gap. Of course, this does not mean that the old man is not good. It's just that sometimes he doesn't have much freedom in creation and is easily interfered by the production company.
Ridley Scott was very envious of little Gilbert's creative environment, seeing how messed up Disney and Warner were.
Warners, in particular, has a reputation for meddling in filmmaking. But when it comes to little Gilbert's film projects, other than giving people money, he doesn't get involved at all.
More ordinary movie fans were excited and felt a sense of loss after the movie ended.
When the final subtitles fell, warm applause erupted in the premiere hall.
"Let's go on stage for a curtain call..." Little Gilbert led the creators to the stage for a curtain call and thanked the audience.
The applause was warm enough and lasted for a long time. Little Gilbert had to take the creators to take several curtain calls to thank the audience for their support.
The audience who came early also applauded. Although there was no curtain call for the main creator, they still wanted to dedicate their applause to this film series, which can be called one of the greatest in film history.
Noel clapped his hands along with the fans. Even if the clapping made his hands hurt, he didn't care.
The fans shouted, cheered, and screamed, never thinking about the fact that the movie was over and they had to leave.
The theater staff came to remind him that it was time to leave, but the fans stared back.
"Manager, what should I do?" The staff was anxious, there was still cleaning to do, and there was a midnight show!
The manager waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, let them celebrate! Little Gilbert, this summer is his world again."
After the premiere, there will be a midnight screening of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," and tomorrow the film will be officially released in several countries in North America and Europe.
The "Lord of the Rings" series, which the media shouted to be invincible, is finally about to usher in its most glorious and glorious final moment.
All the preparation, all the hard work and fatigue must come to an end.
And then, it’s time to harvest the sweet fruits.
Sometimes life doesn't go as planned, and not all good people, good deeds, and hard work are rewarded.
But at least at this moment, "Lord of the Rings" gets the praise it deserves and has a perfect ending.
