Gothmog is one of the best LOTR-Villains, because he is smart, badass, strategic, obstinately, and very well experienced for wars!!!! And theese Moments says at all!
You gotta admire the guy. A crippled Orc who leads one of the most powerful armies in all of Middle Earth and he nearly succeeded? Witch King may have been the leader, but Gothmog was a far better general than him.
The Witch King also almost succeeded on his own when Angmar was first established, he destroyed all of the Northern kingdoms without Sauron. Gothmog wasn’t bad but the Witch King was one of, if not the best, commander Sauron had.
Gothmog was like the equivalent of a Command Sergeant Major in the US army, the senior-most enlisted rank (E-9). He was obviously extremely battle-hardened as evidenced by his many injuries. While not an officer like the Nazgul, his extensive experience earned him the respect of both leadership and enlisted-orcs alike.
And he served an important role. The Witch King was the overall commander, presumably using the other Nazgul as secondary commanders, but Gothmog was responsible for responding to the changing situation on the ground. The Witch King told him the mission, but how he accomplished that was up to him to an extent.
Gothmog is a very underrated charachter... The way how he succeded in the battle of Osgiliath, how he conquered the city with one swift strike prooves he is a true military genious.
@@boyar1978 don't forget the army he commands are orcs - same orcs which would kill each other for a shiny shirt. It was quite an accomplishment to lead them
@@PolishGod1234 well, that shiny chainmail is extremely rare and valuable. Even Kings would be lucky to get one. So it can't be called a petty fight by orc standards.
Orc society is a dog-eat-dog world. Gothmog can't show fear or weakness. He has to establish that he is top orc in this army, and all of these motherf*ckers had better listen to him. He may be disabled, but he ain't a Morgoth-damned coward. He's the best orc for the job. It's his way or the stew pot.
@@The_Destroyer_1 Whatever Churchill's personal opinions on Jews were, I would think Jews have good reason to like him given that Britain played a large role in bringing down Nazi Germany and rescuing them. So anyway guys, how 'bout that Rohan charge?
Actually if you pay attention, Gothmog is standing behind the archer's line, giving firing orders. But when the rohirim strike, it takes a good 30 seconds for full gallop horses to reach the archer's lines. That would mean the pikes and foot soldiers were ahead of the archers, by a good set of meters, leaving a separation between the two, a common tactic to make sure the arrow's arc clears the infantry. Orcs live and breathe war, of course they follow orders.
Fun Fact: Gothmog is just named by Tolkein in the books. He is not actually assigned a race. I reckon it would have been cool to make him a Black Numenorean. Black Numenoreans are described as much more evil than any orc and I reckon it was a missed opportunity. I would have loved to see a general that ruthlessly executes prisoners and kills orc subordinates that question him. None the less, this Gothmog is a great potrayal too.
@@Burt1038 oh I agree, I was talking about the lotr trilogy looking great with the practical effects. I dont think all of the blame can be put on Peter Jackson, I heard he was called in like half way through because the original director quit. And I'm sure there was tons of studio meddling.

“Pikes in front, archers behind”... If it wasn’t because the majority of the formation back of because of fear... I’m pretty sure they wold withstood that charge more effectively He was a great military commander
they didnt saw the extend of the enemy army, because they were out of sign of the commander AND they were not able to form up enough ranks in a short amount of time, because they didnt expected an attack in front of minas tirith and were commiting forces to the siege. in the book they were not even slightly defended from such an attack, because the whole field is secured by a wall with rare secured gates. the rohirim were able to get past the first defenses from the army with the support of some hermits, but the whole part got cut out from the film, like the whole "gondorians rushed out of the city to support the attack" and "gondorian vassal army together with aragon" with the dead army. in the book the gondorian forces were not able to bring all soldiers to minas tirith because of the pirates and were gathering around aragon and the army of the dead. they supported aragon after the fight as the new king.
Theoden and his vanguard literally was blessed by the Valar of the hunt at the moment, at least that was heavily implied in the books. The power of a Valar smashed into that orc army.
Omfg guys. It's because they were backwards. They had already advanced on Minas Tirith. That would have put pikes and archers facing the other way. Then the Rohirrim popped up behind them, so they had to swap positions.
Theory: Gothmog is a reincarnated Azog. It's why his facial template is contorted like this. Both have significantly pale skin for an orc and similar attitude. He was a last solution of Mordor, that's why he appears so late and has such high position in power already.

Fun Fact: Gothmog was inspired by Harvey Weinstein. Peter Jackson and Weinstein didn't get along to say the least, so he modelled one of the orcs after him. In hind sight, the comparison isn't too far off.
I like how he actually puts up a fight in the extended version, the Witcher King went out easier than him. In the theatre release they just make it out like he died in the charge.
When you see a compilation with only the orcs, you root for them when they get killed. But when you watch the whole movie you root for the good guys, since you also see the bad things the uruks did.
As Sauron gets stronger, so does the Witch King. Keep in mind that he’s been wreaking havoc with Angmar while Sauron was recovering and destroyed multiple kingdoms before it collapsed. He isn’t exactly a pushover.

in the book they were not even slightly defended from such an attack, because the whole field is secured by a wall with rare secured gates. the rohirim were able to get past the first defenses from the army with the support of some hermits, but the whole part got cut out from the film, like the whole "gondorians rushed out of the city to support the attack" and "gondorian vassal army together with aragon" with the dead army. in the book the gondorian forces were not able to bring all soldiers to minas tirith because of the pirates and were gathering around aragon and the army of the dead. they supported aragon after the fight as the new king.
Theoden and his vanguard literally was blessed by the Valar of the hunt at the moment, at least that was heavily implied in the books. The power of a Valar smashed into that orc army.
Omfg guys. It's because they were backwards. They had already advanced on Minas Tirith. That would have put pikes and archers facing the other way. Then the Rohirrim popped up behind them, so they had to swap positions.
I just love the random orc's face at 4:04. I want a plushie of him now.
Theory:
Gothmog is a reincarnated Azog. It's why his facial template is contorted like this. Both have significantly pale skin for an orc and similar attitude. He was a last solution of Mordor, that's why he appears so late and has such high position in power already.
WTF stupidest theory on LOTR ever.Have you even read the Books!?!?!??????
Gothmog is definitely a WarChief Orc!
3:41 the horn heard round the world
No one going to acknowledge that orc archer's perfect standing shot on a moving boat, hitting a target through a window, on the first shot.
0:31 when you don plate armor made of plastic
Gothmog is actually the name of the most powerful balrog ever. He was the lord of the balrogs. It's like naming a chihuahua after Vulcan.
What of the wizard?
Wraith: I. WILL. BREAK. HIM.

Gothmog: [in anger] "Get back there and SMASH it down!!!"
Murgash: "But nothing can breach it?!"
Gothmog: "Grond will breach it. Bring up the wolf's head!"
It's great that Sloth got another role.
omg I was disappointed when I looked in the comment and didn't see a sloth reference xD
Fun Fact: Gothmog was inspired by Harvey Weinstein. Peter Jackson and Weinstein didn't get along to say the least, so he modelled one of the orcs after him. In hind sight, the comparison isn't too far off.
It's a shame we didn't get the Time of Orcs, it would have been a golden age of heavy metal and handicapped civil rights.
I think what I most like about him is his oxbridge lisp...
I like how he actually puts up a fight in the extended version, the Witcher King went out easier than him. In the theatre release they just make it out like he died in the charge.
0:32 guy wearing a full plate armor gets literally one shot by an arrow
4:21 lord voldemort?
everyone gotta start somewhere
From marksman to mage
Gothmog’s head looks like a brain and he is the highest ranking orc in the Mordor army. I guess you could say he’s the brains of the operation
When you see a compilation with only the orcs, you root for them when they get killed. But when you watch the whole movie you root for the good guys, since you also see the bad things the uruks did.
Excuse me?! Bad things the uruks did? We got slain!!!
These commanders all demonstrate the trait of never underestimating the enemy.
I love this guy! When I found out his name I squealed with joy!
4:02 "Pikes in front. Archers behind." "Ooooouaaarg" I felt that.
1:28 gosh right through his manflesh
Classic.
I'm thinking of starting a fan club for him
When I saw this movie when it first came out in theaters, I was so pissed that he didn't get an onscreen death.
You know he's badass when he shares the same name as the legendary balrog!
"release the prisoners" Is missing
2:46 The hobbit who threw that rock must have really went to town on the ent draught …
2:50 the rock shape shifting was impressive. It grew
It seems they threw a sheep into his vat while he was developing
.....
Bitch
01:28 Honestly, that was far pretty kind from him, considering he is an Orc
I care about people...

In the words of NF “How could you leave us? Why would you leave us?”
RIP Gothmog
-What about the wizard?
-I will break him
Me- Yeah, right! Good luck with that:-) Gandalf killed a Balrog, he can take you down too, buddy:P😂😂😂
What about Gadget?
I will break him!
@@mushroomhead3619 who's Gadget? :-)
the grey warlock didn't kill udaumno, it was just scripted for the audience after the great defiler's tolkien's pamphlet.
As Sauron gets stronger, so does the Witch King. Keep in mind that he’s been wreaking havoc with Angmar while Sauron was recovering and destroyed multiple kingdoms before it collapsed. He isn’t exactly a pushover.
Amanda Eklund Well you will break you
Me and my family just called him meatloaf, never knew he had an actual name lol.
A good leader commands his people. A great leader elevates them, and bring out their very best.

3:59: "Pikes in front. Archers behind."
4:08:
I was just about to comment that too XD
they were just a little confused lol
Gothmog: Litterly cant fucking walk
Sauron: I see a true leader
He sure can ride well though that and he comes across as very brave.
He probably did several battles so he got wounds, scars and injuries. and being a good leader is more than just being a good soldier
Send forth all legions. Do not stop the attack until the city has been taken. Slay all!! Epic quote!!
