I’d like to start this paper with the questions it asks and answers: What is fantasy literature? Are there any similarities between works of fantasy and myths?

The Lord of the Rings trilogy, spanned from 2001-2003, is a series of dramatic mythical movies based on the fantasy novels The Lord of the Rings: The fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

“Not all those wander are lost.” – J.R.R Tolkien 1 The Author J.R.R. Tolkien: Professor John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, the author of The Hobbit and its direct sequel, The Lord of the Ring.

He was persuaded by C.S Lewis to publish a book that he had written for his own children, The Hobbit in 1937. Tolkien’s influence weighs heavily on the fantasy genre that grew

Sméagol. … ' "Oh, are you indeed, my love," said Sméagol; and he caught Deal by the throat and strangled him, because the gold looked so bright and beautiful. Then he put the ring on his finger. In this passage we come to know that the Ring, that Sauron created to have unlimited power, was stolen from him. Later on it found its way to Deagol and Smeagol. Just as they came into contact with the Ring Deagol started to become corrupted. In order for him to take it he strangled his friend. We can see

scriptwriter adapted the J.R.R.Tolkien’s epic novel The Lord of the Rings into the film version. This series of movies has become one of the most famous topics of this time. The basic narratives- the free peoples of Middle-Earth defeat the Dark Lord Sauron and his monster army which he creates to control Middle-Earth. The concept of morals in these films is that there is always hope in the world of darkness through the events in the two main threads, Frodo-Sam and the War (Aragorn) which illustrate
