IGN asked Richard Taylor, one of the producers of The Two Towers, "Legolas mounting the horse: it drew the biggest cheer from the audience. What was the genesis of that shot?"
"I saw some reaction from when we were mixing [The Two Towers], and I always thought, 'Well, gee, do we really want to do that?'" said Taylor. "That shot, it's an incidental beat, but [Peter] didn't want a simple moment."
"I said, 'Let's just put [Legolas] on the horse sort of in a conventional manner.' And [Peter] said, 'No, no. I want something completely different; after all, you know, Legolas, he's an elf; he's got to have some special way to get on the horse,'" said Taylor. "And that's Peter's genius: he knows where to push and what is going to get an audience to cheer. When we first showed it to a public audience. Wow!"--That FX Shot: Legolas Mounting the Horse
