The Lord of the Rings and Geometric Art is a mosaic of changing
symmetrical patterns of
a set of three motion pictures that form Peter Jackson's adaptation of J.R.R
Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings.
The three live action films were filmed
simultaneously. They featured extensive computer-generated imagery,
including major battle scenes generated with the "Massive" (Multiple Agent
Simulation System in Virtual Environment) software program:
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the
Ring (2001), four Oscars.
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002),
two Oscars.
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
(2003) , eleven Oscars.
"The Lord of the Rings" is the only film trilogy
beside "The Godfather" in which all three pics got a best-film nom. With 30
total nominations, the trilogy also became the most-nominated in the
Academy's history, surpassing the Godfather series' 28.
