Upon seeing posters on the walls of Jackson's screening room for his early splatter comedies, "It suddenly struck me that this guy is making $50,000, $60,000 and $75,000 movies, cheap exploitation films, and we're giving him $300 million dollars," said Shaye. He explains that he fought the Balrog and came out alive. This movie included the Battle of Helm’s Deep as well as many other memorable scenes. However, this film has a lot of iconic moments that fans of Tolkien, as well as pop culture, will recognize. In an interview with Deadline to mark "Fellowship" turning 20 in 2021, Shaye admitted this didn't really sink in for him until he went to New Zealand with some international buyers to watch a sample reel Jackson had assembled mid-production. The Return of the King (1955) The Two Towers is the second of three volumes in The Lord of the Rings. Since The Two Towers is the middle movie in the trilogy, it often gets ignored somewhat in favor of talking about the beginning and the end. At that stage in his career, the biggest movie Jackson has tackled was "The Frighteners," a horror-comedy with a budget close to $30 million.

Tolkien came up with the title under deadline pressure and later expressed dissatisfaction with it. Háma says that the people trust the House of Eorl, but Théoden argues that they need Éomer in the battle. It is preceded by The Fellowship of the Ring and followed by The Return of the King. Tolkien adaptation to the studio in the late 1990s, a time when franchise movies didn't rule the box office the way they do now, and genre films weren't a sure thing unless they had an A-list star or director (and even then, not always). The Two Towers is the second volume of J.R.R. Starring Ian McKellan, Viggo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, Bernard Hill and John Rhys-Davies. ![]() Hindsight is always 20/20, though, so it's easy to forget what a huge risk New Line Cinema founder Robert Shaye was taking when he agreed to bankroll all three "Rings" films.
