The Land of Fantasy

Maybe you don’t know the name ‘Fiordland’ but you probably know the place. It’s one of the amazing places in The Lord of the Rings films and it’s in New Zealand. So it’s no surprise that the director of the films, Peter Jackson, is from Wellington, the capital of New Zealand.

Fiordland is on South Island, New Zealand and the name comes from the Norwegian word ‘fjord’. A fjord is a long, narrow area of sea between high cliffs. In fact, with its 14 fjords, the Fiordland coast is very much like Norway. The best known fjord is Milford Sound because it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. It’s a great place for walking and water sports of all kinds.

But if you like The Lord of the Rings films, you can also go on some brilliant tours of famous places in the films. You can take the same trip as Frodo and his friends on the ‘River Anduin’ and see the ‘Misty Mountains’. There’s also ‘Fanghorn Forest’ nearby, but don’t expect the trees to walk or talk! On the North Island, there are lots of other places from the films: ‘the Shire’: the home of the Hobbits, ‘Helms Deep’ and even ‘Mordor’: the capital of the Dark Lord, ‘Sauron’. But don’t worry; scary Sauron doesn’t live there anymore.

Peter Jackson is from Norway.

My Favourite Film

I love all the High School Musical films, but High School Musical 3 is my favourite. I             [hardly ever, often]watch it with my sister or friends because it's a romantic musical and we can sing all the songs!

HSM3 is about a group of American students in their last year at East High School. It's a difficult time because they              [are thinking, think]about their future life at colledge,     [and, but]they also love singing and dancing in their last school musical, "Senior Year". My favourite song is Can I Have This Dance?

I like the film         [also, because]the characters are so lively and          [friendly, weird]. The two main characters are Troy and his girlfriend, Gabriella. Troy is captain of the basketball team and Gabriella is a serious student         [because, but]they're also fantastic singers and dancers. They're my favourite characters because they're very         [special, scary].

In my          [thinking, opinion], HSM3 is an amazing film because of the           [brilliant, annoying] acting and music. I also love it because the story is very          [sad, romantic] and has a happy ending.
