Glenethor has just left Hobbiton.
Sting What is your favourite set/scene?

Well,<P>We've had a thread or two or three about who everyone thought was their favourite actors. Yet, it is clear that a huge part of the movie is the scenery of NZ, some mixed with CGI and models, and some not. What would you say are your favourites, if you could pick a few?<P>I love the Shire. If I ever became even reasonably wealthy, I'd buy a big plot of land and build my own hobbit-hole (slightly larger than scale, though). Everytime I go to the movie and see the Shire, I get all wistful, because I grew up in a more or less rural environment, and though I've lived in cities since I was 12, I have never completely adjusted to them. Too loud, too dirty, too compressed, too fast, too impersonal. I just don't fit in concrete jungles. I think PJ's depiction of Hobbiton is fantastic. When I see it, I can smell the fresh cut hay, the..ahem...pony manure, devoid of smog and water that tastes like it flowed out of Imlad Morgul.<P>I also loved Rivendell and Lorien. I'd live in either place faster than you could say "the road goes ever on."<P>What about you?
