From "The Two Towers": the opening shot of the mountains.

It made the beacons scene in the next movie seem less impressive.

FOTR - "they come exactly when they mean to!" F leaps into G's hug, revealing their physical size difference. TTT - Gollum v. Smeagol dialogue ROTK - beacons! AUJ - "A home. It was taken from you. But I will help you take it back if I can." DOS - "You are being used, Thief in the Shadows. You were only ever a means to an end... " BOTFA- A redeemed Thorin & his dwarves charge onto the field in wedge formation.

I don't know that it's my favorite scene, but I love the scene where Orodruin erupts and the horrible realization of Frodo and Sam's fate hits them.

.....It's absolutely impossible for me to pick one favourite scene for each film. So in my case, it will be more than one for each,but I'll try to narrow down as best as I can. FOTR: Entering the Shire for the first time, Mines of Moria sequence, the breaking of the Fellowship. TTT: Last march of the Ents, Helm's Deep battle. ROTK: ( That's the most difficult for me to narrow down) Lightening of the beacons, Ride of the Rohirrim, Éowyn slaying the Witch King, "white shores, and beyond" scene between Gandalf and Pippin, Sam carrying Frodo up the slopes of Mount Doom, the Grey Havens ( I can't pick a favorite ) AUJ: The white council, the eagles rescue. DOS: Thorin's speech at Lake Town, Gandalf vs. Sauron at Dol Guldur. BOT5A:Thorin and the dwarves charging in battle, Thorin's death with Bilbo at his side, Kili's death with Tauriel at his side, Gandalf and Bilbo "reflection moment" after battle. (Note: I have not yet watched the EE of The Hobbit films, I'm preparing myself for over a year now )

But to narrow it down. AUJ: Thorin running down the falling tree to confront Azog, with Bilbo coming to the rescue in the end. DOS: The end scene with Smaug bursting from the Mountain covered in gold. BOFA: The War Chariot. FOTR: The chase through Moria. TTT: The love sequence with Aragorn and Arwen. ROTK: The Battle of Pelennor Fields.
"Keen, heart-piercing was her song as the song of the lark that rises from the gates of night and pours its voice among the dying stars, seeing the sun behind the walls of the world; and the song of Lúthien released the bonds of winter, and the frozen waters spoke, and flowers sprang from the cold earth where her feet had passed."

Here's an attempt anyway: FotR - The death of Boromir/Frodo's resolution and departure TTT - "So it begins" RotK - There is no way to narrow it down to one sequence, so I'm snagging the entire final 40 minutes (everything from "Frodo has passed beyond my sight..." to "The End") AUJ - "Thus the battle was won. And the game of golf invented at the same time" + Bilbo turning down the quest + "Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold" + Bilbo's sudden change of heart (seems like a lot of film, but these scenes add up to only about 6 minutes of the run time) DoS - "She walks in starlight in another world..." BotFA - The attack on Laketown/Bard and son bring down the dragon

And even these are a snippet of how many scenes grab me! FotR Seeing Hobbiton and Bag End for the first time. Scenes with Bilbo then Frodo talking with Gandalf in Bag End. Gandalf and Frodo sitting and talking quietly together in Moria (So do all who see such times) and their plight on the Stairs of Khazad-dum! Brilliant! Aragorn and Boromir talking in Lothlorien (silver trumpet) and later at Boromir's death. TT Opening scene through the mountain to Gandalf and the Balrog battling and falling. Charge of Eomer and Gandalf down the mountain to defend Helm's Deep Ents attack Isengard. RotK The charge of the Riders onto the Pelennor Fields. Gandalf and Pippin waiting for death in Minas Tirith. Sam and Frodo on the rocks above the lava flow after the Ring is destroyed. AUJ Gandalf and Bilbo's first meeting (Good Morning :) The Dwarves arriving at Bag End and their feasting, singing, planning. Bilbo and Gollum's Riddle game. DOS After killing the crab/spider, Bilbo looking at the Ring and realizing what it's doing to him. Bilbo and Smaug The Dwarves' entrance into the Mountain and facing down Smaug (never happened in the book... and I'm so glad it did here :) BoFA Bard and Bain fighting Smaug Galadriel coming to save Gandalf... joined by Elrond, Radagast and Saruman.

Just a few, ya know? An Unexpected Journey: The White Council The Desolation of Smaug: The Woodland Realm The Battle of Five Armies: Bard vs. Smaug The Fellowship of the Ring: The Mines of Moria/Lothlorien The Two Towers: The Three Hunters chasing after the Uruks The Return of the King: The End of All Things with Frodo in the heart of Mount Doom.

I'll go with: FOTR: The Company's escape from Moria, with the exquisite combination of Shore's music and the Fellowship's member's utter desolation just outside the Gate. TTT: Helm's Deep, yes. Very closely followed by Gandalf's and the balrog's fall in Moria. The moment when they descend from the top of the bottom-most cave to the time they hit the water, again with Shore's incomparable contribution, just gives me shivers every time. ROTK: Yes, The ascent through the levels of Minas Tirith. Just incredible.
