The first part of which was released in winter 2012 and the last in winter 2014.

The Return of the King, released in December 2003Īn adaptation of The Hobbit was later made into a prequel trilogy, with Peter Jackson returning to direct the films.

The Two Towers, released in December 2002.

The Fellowship of the Ring, released in December 2001.

note Fellowship won 4, Two Towers won 2, and Return of the King won 11 - it shares the record for most Oscar wins for a single film ever with Ben-Hur (1959) and Titanic (1997), and holds the record for the biggest "sweep", winning all the awards it was nominated for.

The results were astonishingly critically and commercially successful, with each film grossing more than $750 million (averaging more than $1 billion after being adjusted for inflation), and with all three winning Academy Awards. Unusual for such a thing, Peter Jackson has stated that the Extended Editions are not an actual Director's Cut (feeling the term would unfairly imply that he was unsatisfied with the theatrical releases) but merely a fan-friendly extension to enlarge the world of Middle-earth and see what things they left out of the faster-paced theatrical versions. note Around 12 minutes of that extra runtime is credits added for the fan community website.

The theatrical versions were lengthy epics (all clocking around at 3-ish hours), and the "Extended Editions" (released before the succeeding movies) added at least another half-hour to each film's running time. Among the most significant changes include Saruman's last scene, the characterizations of Aragorn, Gimli, Faramir, Denethor, and Arwen, as well as the removal of various subplots to make the story as a whole more appealing to movie audiences or to streamline their remarkably nuanced events from the books.

The films were remarkably faithful in many respects, though many changes had to be made due to the many factors involved with adapting such a monumental work.
