The Greatest Movie Trilogy Of All Time Is Now Streaming On Netflix

Back in 2001 our young hearts never knew about the great JRR Tolkien and the magic of The Lord of the Rings.

Thanks to Peter Jackson, the LOTR became a symbolic right of passage for millions of people who invested in Frodo, his magic ring and the journey to reach Mount Doom.

After years of wondering if we could make it through such a mammoth screening, Netflix announced the Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King will be available to stream on the service from today.

Extended version or not, we’ll still be watching the greatest movie trilogy of all time.
