LotR also is going to stand out from now on, because at the time it was made, CGI was ok, and getting to be good, but they didn't trust it for crowds yet. SW Ep. 1 came out at about the same time, and the CGI crowds don't hold up. LotR had PJ directing and he wanted to use as many real people and real sets as he could, so that when they had to use CGI it wouldn't be noticable. You can see the difference looking at The Hobbit movies.
