I can't put in on the shedule anymore, since the channel is not monetized, so I cant. Aaand, uhm... Yeah. I need your opinion on this, since I can imagine what a bitch this is - not to see any uploads from me, and then the whole freaking sub feed is spammed. Or is it okay?

**Uruk hai's retreat into the forest**
Ents: LOOKS LIKE MEAT'S BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS.
Uruk hai: were did I hear this before?
But the ents weren’t the ones who killed the Uruk hai. The huorns did as they retreated into the forest.
Hahaha underrated comment
Those weren't Ents! They were Huorns, semi-intelligent trees that stood as guardians of the forests.
I still don't get why the Ents didn't just kill the uruk-hai army as they were marching through to helms deep
“Theoden King, stands alone.
Not alone..”
Such a simple line of dialogue that elicits SO much emotion.
-- Alt scene for Helm's Deep --
Let this be the hour when we draw swords together. Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath! Now for ruin! And a red dawn!"
He mounts his horse and puts on his helmet. The sound of the horn rumbles through Helm's Deep as Gimli blows with gusto. Theoden yells.
"Forth Eolingas!"
Theoden leads the charge out of the keep into the Hornburg, slashing away at the orcs as they go. Without pause, they storm out of the gate and down the Causeway. Much to Theoden's surprise, they were too late since Jack and Ashi eradicate the orcs. No survivors were left. The fellowship, Theoden and Gambling notice there are none to fight. Even Gandalf, Eomer and the Rohirrim observe from above and judge the enemies are already annihilated by the time they got here. The refugees and Erwyn celebrate at the feet of Ashi and Jack. Theoden, Eomer and the fellowship are upset that they didn't get any to fight. So much for Forth Eolingas.
@@TheLatiosnlatias02 peter jackson made it better then
@@obamacare9139
I'm sure you watched Samurai Jack where Ashi eradicated 10000 orcs
I am strong and capable on my own, but more powerful with by friends and peers at my side
When you have Dredd by your side, you know you're gonna win!
It’s beautiful when Theoden says “Eomer”. The relief and joy in his voice to see his nephew and most trusted soldier arrive just in the nick of time is fantastic.
Piece of gold my man
كيف صحتك اني احبك في لله كثيرا كثيرا كثيرا كثيرا

agreeeed
SO TRUE
I like Legolas' expression when he sees the forest come alive. You know he's heard stories about the wrath of the Ents, but he never saw it until then. For him it was seeing a myth become reality.
Considering he's the oldest of anyone there, and even he's shocked, imagine the rest.
@@bujtorm IIRC he is one of the relatively youngest elves, there weren't many born, and still haven't lost the wanderlust/ gotten depressed.
Not to nitpick but aren't the trees that help fight at Helms Deep Huorns? I think the Ents are only involved in taking Isengard.
@@bulbasa9r753 thats the name, i think, well done. the young or the female trees i cant remember, something like that
@@lovethemack Wild trees that are partially sentient and very angry. The female Ents disappeared many years before.
They need to re-release this to theaters. There are generations that need this.
and traumatize. made the mistake of sitting near the where a speaker was in a theater and when the Nazgul screamed...
@@shadowedge1 Nice.
@@shadowedge1 same, my ears will never be the same
Agreed. 100% agreed.
IMAX just re released it in 4K . Saw the fellowship last night !!!
i was 11 when this came out, and i never realized Gandalf didnt use magic to blind the Uruk-Hai. he literally arrived at dawn. puts that whole statement in a whole new light, a wizard arrives exactly when he intends to.
There's debate on whether he did use magic there or not, he does possess Narya one of the three elven rings of power which influences the element of fire and light, while also being originally the wielder of the Flame of Anor (name of the sun in elvish) as he mentioned in his fight against the Balrog - so I would argue that even though Gandalf did come at the right moment, the light of dawn was also enhanced with his powers to inflict a blind CC debuff on the Uruk-hai
Yeah, he uses light and fire spells all the time to blind enemies or scare Nazguls and other specters away. Probably he enhanced the sun light too.
@@ayfindril blind cc debuff lol
Gandalf seemed pretty weak imo. When I read the books as a kid I got this impression of a very powerful wizard. In the movies he hardly used magic except when he battled that dragon thing and became Gandalf the White. I enjoyed the movies don't get me wrong but he was the weakest magic user in the movies compared to the elves and his mentor. He was only stronger than the forest wizard.
King David, in the bible, used the same tactic. He would attack at dawn with the sun at his back, blinding the enemy. Galdalf isn't using magic, just simple battle tactics
20 years old but still taking every other movie to school. The Lord of the Rings is timeless, ethereal and immortal.
Ironic how you love a biblical narrative.
@@TaiganTundra dude his profile pic is a heartagram, it's just a symbol from a music band called HIM. You have no clue what you're talking about lol
@@95fabri You have no idea what you're talking about. It's a sign combining an inverted pentagram (which is a symbol for Baphomet) and a heart meaning love for Satan. All your favorite artists and celebrities are part of secret societies which are satanic. I've studied esotericism and the occult for almost 20 years. I am perfectly aware the meaning of symbols.
@@TaiganTundra damn you really messed that one up didn't you stupid genZ
ironice how you talk about things that you dont know, maybe you should read the bible more@@TaiganTundra
I've always loved that look from Aragorn at 2:54.
This is the face of a man that had accepted he was going to die in this battle and that the people of Rohan were lost, he is coming to grips with the fact that they somehow managed to pull it off against all odds, that look of relief is so well acted, Viggo is a legend.
No. Not Aragorn.
Theoden had given up and was looking to suicide charge for a glorious death sake but Aragorn knew Gandalf was coming and kept reminding Theoden to fight and to fight for Rohans survival. That's the look of massive relief.
@@mistermonologue2442 Thepden had given up and was going to die cowering in despair.
Aragorn had accepted he would probably die in the suicide charge but was brave enough to face his death head on.
That’s the look of a man who needs a change of underwear, for sure.
This movie trilogy was ruined for me. During a scene when they were cuddled up keeping warm some kid yelled "sam is that your dildo poking my baggins?" The theater erupted in laughter and now when I watch it I can't not notice the very not so subtle homoerotic stuff.
Ive always interpreted it so that he realizes to never give up, there is always hope - and this face is him acknowledging it. And later at the Black Gate he uses this learning to assault against all odds even when Frodo was thought to be dead.
A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
The best line ever
And used in the best scene possible
I told my boss that. I got a dirty look 🤣🤣🤣
Thats not a book quote its from scenarist patricia
Could have arrived a bit earlier Gandalf...
Who tf had the audacity to compare this masterpiece with battle of Winterfell???
Almost Famous everyone with their head screwed on
The showrunners of GOT 😕maybe they wanted to hype it up
Well before the episode came out it looked as if it might be as good.
I mean if this was a GoT sequence people would bitch how do they just ride out the castle with no effort at all. In real life they would fall as soon as they go through the door.
Hesusfkr you are so right, I have no doubt if this scene was in GoT, people would complain about that logic and writing.
2:18 never fails to bring a tear to my eye
they say never look directly into the sun, but hey, whatever works for you bruh😝
The light was amplified by Gandalf's magic
The choir at the moment Gandalf first appears atop the hill... Jesus Christ!
I always saw Gandalf Arriving and coming down like the Sun rising and pushing back the shadow.
And yes gets me every single time. 😭
Those strings make it such an awesome moment
For years and years I always thought Gandalf was using a spell to blind the Uruk-Hai when they get blinded as they charge into them. I now realise it’s from the sunlight coming over the hill, which leads back to Gandalf telling Frodo “A wizard is neither late nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means too.” Amazing detail.
A little more for you - if you remember the scene with the Balrog, when Gandalf says he is "wielder of the flame of Anor", "Anor" is the Elvish word for the Sun.
“He arrives precisely when he means to.” Proceeds to arrive after pretty much everyone is dead.
I'll give you guys one even better.. When Gandalf was ridding out with Pippen he told Aragorn "Look to my coming at first light on the 5th day. At dawn, look to the east". The scene right before Aragorn tells Theoden to ride out, is when he realized what Gandalf said and knew hope was on the way! So it was actually Theoden who believed he was ridding to his death once again. Aragorn always had a lucky, elvish way out of a jam, while Theoden, being just as or maybe even more fearless, met his challenges in a very human way. Man, LOTR has so many layers to it, its crazy.
The urukhai just like the orcs are weakened by daylight, hence prefer to march and fight in the dark.
@@chibuikeonu5701 No they aren't. The Uruk Hai literally yell at Aragorn in the book WE ARE THE FIGHTING URUK HAI. WE DO NOT STOP THE FIGHT FOR NIGHT OR DAY, FOR FAIR WEATHER OR STORM.
The Sun doesn't affect them like it does Orcs.
it's 2021And People Are Still Watching and Commenting On This, That's Why It is called as a Greatest Triology
Yeah ikr
Almost 20years still alive
Yep that and Star Wars IV, V, VI
THE greatest trilogy
There is only one ‘Return of the’ and it ain’t Jedi
This scene is the pinnacle of all "good vs evil" conceptions throughout cinema history and that's why it's so powerful, the symbolism of the light wiping out the darkness as they descend from the mountain is just incredible.
Kind of reminds me of what is happening around the world right now 🤔
"Symbology?"You mean symbolism?Jesus fuck.
@@SJamesGill88 get fucked
The symbolism! The Saints anyone?
Ryan ODowd Boondock Saints baby!
Karl Urban is a bloody lucky guy. He starred in two of the best cinematic cavalry charges in history.
Whats the other one?
When they went to Minas Tirith
Holy shit I didn’t even realize it was him this whole time and I’ve watched this movie like 200 times over since I was a child 😂😂
Lucky guy for replacing his lost sword
@@globoi9637 Yeah his makeup artist and the armor really did a good job of disguising him in this role. It took me years and someone pointing it out for me to realize it was him.
1:17 i still can't believe how they could make a scene so epic. These seconds of gandalf and shadowfax with this music are really unreal. The garbage of today will never reach those things. What a scene. Really a masterpiece.
I can imagine a something for Eowyn with Gambling at Helms Deep while these Uruk Hai entered.
As the refugees found means into the mountains, Gambling led them there, leaving her behind. An Uruk Hai rushed at Eowyn from the shadows of an alcove. Taken unawares, Eowyn leaped aside then moved to block. From nowhere a string of arrows struck the enemies full in the neck, one after the other. It reeled back but recovered, blade held high still intent on destruction. Eowyn skewered it with a deft stab, and kicked the body away.
Eowyn ran in among the pillars at the sides of the high-ceilinged yet rather bare room, using them to launch herself at the savage foes as they appeared. Other slow-witted goons with broadswords were not so much trouble, these being susceptible to her swift attacks. She added a refinement that she had learned: how to exploit foes' weakness on her descent in one fluid move that left them roaring in helpless rage on the point of her raised sword. Patiently the princess worked the room, doing her best to keep any attacker off the refugees. Gambling in turn supported her, stunning strays where he could draw a bead.
There seemed too many to repel with finesse. Eowyn swung her sword viciously, hacking and slicing as each brute came close. She kept up a steady sweep and cut through without effort, and soon the enemies fall to the ground. Even so, yet more arrived, and Eowyn was surrounded once again. Combat was fruitless with the objective overlooked. Time was ever running out for the fleeing people.
From the Glittering Caves to the main hall, it appeared empty while sounds of battle were heard outside.
Outside Gandalf and allies from the North fought the enemies. The demons reeled under the force of the charge. A spear from Eomer was thrust, a creature swept off its feet. An Uruk Hai's sword came down but was blocked in a valiant clash of steel. One Uruk Hai lumbered through the tide and was clubbed aside in a solid blow by Gandalf, head smashed. Swords slashed and Isengard's armies were bludgeoned to the ground. Arrows from Legolas flashed and stunned first one then another. In the thick of it, Legolas kept up rapid fire. Gimli and Aragorn
"Return to your master, creatures of shadow!"
Gandalf declared, stamping his staff, emitting a magnesium bright energy burst, causing both allies and enemies alike to falter. Such intense brilliant glow was on the same level as the sun. The Uruk Hai were forced to retreat. They don't seem to notice despite their vast numbers they fled. Numbers do not win a battle.
His blade flashed as he soared above the head of the first guardian, slashing down once and again before wresting it to the ground and delivering the coup de grace.
They set to, knowing that she faced a desperate hand-to-hand fight, no quarter to be asked or given. She kept her guard up as they circled, looking for an opening, and as one took a lunge Eowyn bounded forward to assail them as they were exposed to attacks. She watched for the Captains to prepare their devastating swipes - whirling their swords about their heads - and hit them hard then. More often than not they instantly blocked, but she was at least able to limit their attack on her. She moved around wooden tables, looking for a moment to rebound and send two or three to the ground, at which she could spring over. Surrounded by Uruk Hai, Eowyn was momentarily cornered and Gambling finished them off.
"Thanks!" she said cheerfully.
"Don't mention it," the casual response from Gambling.
The berserkers looked most likely to threaten Gambling and the people, and she stayed as close as she dared, ready to set one in stone if it looked ready to slash with its long sword with spikes on both sides of its tip. Should one catch her and knock her back, she was sure to get back on her feet before others gathered round. As she began to lose health, Eowyn made her way down the steps where she found a meagre supplies of food and water. By using one or two as a stone shield, she could buy time to recover lost health and still turn to retrieve before they revived.
Gambling became surrounded by brutish monsters, that attacked him from behind if he stood overlong. Gambling moved about, attacking as he tended to each. They swept down from the walls in great number, one on another. He retreated behind the tables at one end of the room, that he might at least limit the direction of their attack. With strength and agility he gained peace at last, but sensed he had not long before others arrived. Temporarily outnumbered, he and Eowyn cast them all to the ground, then swung their weapons expertly and banished them to dust. As the last expired, they hurried to join the King and the Fellowship outside.
By these means and much patience, Eowyn won through in her toughest battle yet. Her thoughts were on Aragorn.
"All right, I've decided - I will marry him. I'll tell Lord Aragorn the first chance I get," she mused. "It's time to put an end to all this fencing about and not saying what one really means. We've made it this far; it's foolish to deny what we both feel!"
They emerged into daylight they thought they might never see again.
Aragorn was under imminent attack by Uruk Hai, and as Eowyn ran to help, others stopped her. She set about them in the same old style, and Gambling soon came under attack from them as well.
With force born out of rage Eowyn took determination and thoughts. She moved swiftly, turning to strike suddenly as each creature lumbered after her. She used everything she had learned: slashing and moving quickly; keeping her guard and making opportune counters; rolling aside under their crashing swords; off walls and snatching weapons from foes. She moved slowly backwards, tempting them into a pack, where one would surely make a furious slashing attack, sending his fellows to the ground, at which Aragorn and Eowyn fought back to back. With Eowyn's assistance, Aragorn blocked their challenge and made swift reply, destroying each on a single blow and slowly and surely turning the tide against their number.
When they snuffed out the last foe, the battle was won. People cheered at their salvation. Eowyn and Aragorn hugged expressively.
2:03 and 2:20 as well.. incredibly powerful and the music score is equal to that ✨

Sitting in the theater as a young teenager, watching the Rohirrim charging down the hill, is one of the moments I will never forget in my life. Absolutely magical cinematic moments in this movie series
Lord of the rings series, avatar, matrix trilogy, resident evil (first one only) are some of the films which I really wish to watch anew after I could delete any memories about them 🥺
I always loved how Theoden says Eomer here. With pride that his nephew grew to be such a man, a leader, about to spill blood to defend his kin and people.
Plot twist - Gandalf had to help him search for his lost sword which might explain the delay of getting to Helms' Deep
Let's be honest this wasn't in your recommendation. You searched for it
_A masterpiece_
A man who didn't get goosebumps watching this is just a boy!
Correct
Well it’s not really accurate but yeah movies where still great
Actually I searched and watched this so many times tht now it's permanent in my recommendations.
I looked it up because nostalgia haha
The greatest trilogy of all time
Magical MusicmanVEVO the Hobbit trilogy ist better
hahahahahahaha dont make me laugh! The hobbit bettter than LoTR?? HAHAHAHA
Hobbit better than LotR? This is the most confident *no* I've given in a long time.

1:53 The most epic scene in the history of cinema. I read somewhere that Tolkien didn't want his books ever made into a movie... but I think even he would be impressed.
His children hated these films. Still boggles my mind. I don’t understand why.
All 3 films are excellent and universally loved. I’ve never known a single person in my life that hasn’t at least enjoyed them.
@@sharktoof1they don't like it because it deviates from Tolkien's work quite a lot, abandoning a lot of the hidden meanings and lessons. But the younger Tolkien generation quite liked it and thought Jackson did Tolkien a justice. Tolkien's great grandson was an extra in the Return of The King as well.
@@rivers169 What are some hidden meanings and lessons that were lost in the adaptation?
@@rivers169 they still packed emotion and heavy meaning as well. Lots of good messages of friendship, loyalty and grit and determination. I’ve read the books and LOVE them. I have never seen the issue with the adaption of the films.
And that’s dope that Tolkien’s great grandson was in Return! I did not know that.
This battle scene always moves me to tears. It is the Light that overcomes Darkness. We need to be reminded this, especially now. The Light will prevail, in the end…
Good will always defeat evil dude. They’re destined to lose.
I think its my favorite scene from the trilogy now. It remind me _a lot_ Christian eschatology, specifically Revelation 19 + Zechariah 12 (the "white knight rising from the mountain like the sun to fight with his horses and riders for the holy city at the last minute").
"Theoden King stands alone."
"Not alone. ROHIRRIM!"
"TO THE KING!!!!"
@@mrbread3895 *howard shore goes nuclear*
I pretty much cream each time I see this scene
Originally it was meant to be Gandalf and Erkenbrand while Eomer was at Helms Deep.
*start to cry*
I like how gandalf uses his staff to hit people instead of doing magic.
A magic Blast would of been cool
When you're a wizard but you have 20 STR:
2:37
He can’t use his magic 100%. Unless fighting a balrog of course or one of those nazguls.
What about the blinding light, while they charge into the orcs?
obviously he uses some kind of magic to manipulate his aura or enemies mind to being unable to fight back or sth
I love all the trilogy films, but this scene is among the best and makes the two towers my favorite one for many reasons. Just how Gandalf knew that having a high ground charge and the morning sun against the orks and also the loyalty of the rohirim brings so much more to the climax of the film... Just epic
Second best scene for me. The last ride in return of the king beats this
the high ground always win

In 2004 one of my neighbours in Sudan brought this movie to us. One of the most joyful movie we have ever watched.
Watching this because I just finished watching the battle of Winterfell, and after the sheer stupidity of that defense, I needed to see a well-written, well-executed final stand.
You were expecting both battle to be the same and you're surprised that you felt deceived, both stories are different, GOT already did that in battle of the bastards, you thought it would happen again😂😂
Battle of winterfell was perfectly written and well executed,it was never meant to look like LOTR.

Me too lol
I was an emotional wreck at this point of the movie ❤️
Masterpiece!

I'm nearly 47yrs old and I remember seeing TFOTR in the cinema when it first came out 20yrs ago. My face hurt from the big grin I maintained for the entire run time. These films are truly timeless. Watching this scene in isolation and out of context still brought a lump to my throat. Brilliant filmmaking and storytelling.
I agree. It brings a certain calm and happiness
I was 10 yrs old when this released 30 years now
HI I'M YOUR FIRST SUBSCRIBER
Those 10 seconds from 2:00-2:10 still never fails to give me the chills. Anyone else?
Yeah, this shot is one of the most magnificent in the trilogy imo. Almost biblical.
Not alone there
same.
Pure cinema
Wooooooo the huruks are badassssss
I came here after learning about Tolkien's historical inspiration for this battle, which was the battle of Vienna in 1683. The Polish Winged Hussars led the largest cavalry charge down on the Ottomans, ending their siege in a matter of hours.
This scene is even more epic after hearing about the real events that inspired it.
At first i just could not understand what Gandalf doing charging himself with the troops towards enemies spears, but then the light came in along with that heroic music!! That's one cinematic masterpiece 👏👏
at DAWN on the fifth day..

2:16 When Gandalf says "A Wizard arrives precisely when he means to", he means split-second precision. A half second earlier or later and the sun wouldn't have been in position to blind those uruks.
To be fair Gandalf could have just used blinding light
@@filipsjodin7437 and waste a bonus action? Better to use the sun
Gandalf being the Maia of sun he can summon its powers and harness it through his staff, that’s why when in the third one you see him fight off the nazul it’s the power of the sun
@@itnotmeitu3896 Maia[r] of the Sun? I don't recall him having that title. He's the Wisest of the Maiar, no more, no less. He served under Manwe (the 'technical king of the Valar'). But beyond that he never had any tile relating to the Sun.
aethertech he is the weirder of the flame of arnor which harnesses the power of the sun and is a member of the secret fire, also that’s his power is the power of the sun and you see it every single time he uses magic?
This is the most perfect movies ever made in mankind history
Still CHILLS everytime I re-watch this scene! This whole trilogy was such a cinematic MASTERPIECE!
2:50 Gandalf is so happy about killing he just starts smiling in the middle of battle
he is happy to have won the batlle
There I go killing again!
@@flame_of_the_west8909 no shit
He was happy that he had won 2 battles in a row because in the books he recaptured the westfold along with another captain that was told to protect westfold then Gandalf came with eomer
No he is happy because there is still hope. You can see the same smile when Battle of Pelennor is over. While everyone were mourning for their fallen beloveds, he was happy because age of men is not over yet.

Why the trees did not interevent in the first night. May be trees afraid to be the subject of night fire. hehehe.
Two Towers - Wanna see us do the greatest cavalry charge?
Return of the King - Wanna see us do it again?
Twenty years and this scene still gives me chills. This movie is a masterpiece.
the thing about the cgi in these movies is that it is so well blended into the rest of the frame. the textures and resolutions are not that great compared today but the seamless blend of cgi and live footage with color grading and all makes these movies unmatched on the special effects front in my opinion, the cgi in lotr, though technically inferior is better looking than the cgi in the hobbit. I believe what I am seeing and that is so rare.
i think its also becoz LOTR had lesser colors due to the fact it showed a darker era. the hobbit was colorful and smoother and more recent in sense of digital technology. but the thing is many of the environment is miniature
Totally Agree
philj212 perfectly stated
I totally agree with you, thats why I like the effects of the movies before than recent movies
Better than green lantern
I could watch this a thousand times and still get goosebumps and watery with my eyes
Yeah?
When they charge at minas tirith When takes the first few steps then everyone follows omg. 😭
I teared up more at this scene than when my 2nd child was born
"for Frodo"
me: literally gets watery eyes when typing it, also lol
Every damn time! And I've been watching it for 20 years!😭😭😭
Gandalf : Theoden King, stands alone
Eomer : Not alone. ROHIRRIM..To the King !
Such a simple dialouge, but breathtaking ❤ and yeah, Eomer still a badass character here , love him 😂
There are no words to describe the emotional I feel watching this 😢 and still never fails to give me the chills 🥹
The symbolism is so perfect : light always destroys the darkness, and all the build up lead to this charge , so beautiful 🥹
Still the best battle scene build up and satisfying charge in cinematic history 🌹
What a masterpiece 🎉❤
Maybe the delay was that Gandalf was looking for Eomer's lost sword
I cry everytime I see this scene. You can't even come close to the Lord of the Rings. Best movies ever created!
That war scream by Gandalf is beyond extraordinary. Phenomenal, powerful. Best Trilogy of all time.
Right if it was a game all riders would receive plus 100 dmg
It's just magnificent. I often rewatch just to hear that holy, cosmic war cry.
True, I always come back for this epic cry ❤
Man, imagine how terrifying it'd be to run with an army through a forest, as the forest is just killing everything.
that would be terrifying indeed haha
I don't understand how Legolas is looking so shocked, his people literally gave life to those Ents
did they cut that part out of the movie? because I can't remember that part at all
@@MrNickzwaan wait what? no they didn't. they just taught them how to think, probably before the quendi splitup. Yavanna gave the ents consciousness.
@@dennisnedry8126 hmm wel okay, you seem better informed, but nonetheless, still seems weird to me that he's so shocked.
@@MrNickzwaan Well knowing how sharp his eyesight is he probably just saw a few hundred orcs brutally murdered by those trees. Would shock anyone honestly.

Avengers Endgame best war scenes
Gandalf: "hold my staff"
I wouldn't deprive an old man of his walking stick
Avengers is way more cinematic and emotional because they were effectively dead.. most of them. But this 20 years ago created us sheer brilliance
Benjamin Rodriguez way more cinematic..my ass lmao get fuck out here with that childish end game crap.. never compare masterpieces with stinking pile of shits like endgame
Ya not even close....it was entertaining....not emotional for me as these movies are
Endgame is dogshit compared to this masterpiece
It was 17 years ago and still give me chills
Holy shit I just realized it has been this long
Wait its been 17 years what
Sergej Teofilović stfu
Chills and tears especially when the light appears exactly before their collision... Epic
Same here man. ive seen it at the cinema. daaamn time pass so fast... :S
You have to appreciate how the uruk-hai being equipped with pikes would normally make a cavalry charge into them absolutely suicidal, but with Gandalf at the front the Rohirrim manage to break their lines and thoroughly rout the siege.
This trilogies creation was driven by passion, love, and dedication. Today's Amazon take is driven by Greed, Profits, and outside influence of the social political climate. I'm lucky to have been a young teenager just finishing school when FOTR was coming out. These movies will always one of my most cherished shows ever. No Amazon rubbish will take that from me.
Can we remember that Legolas is 2000 years old, Aaragorn, is like 90, and Theoden is like 75?
And Gandalf is as old as the Earth itself.
@@NathanEagle2129 little bit older than that
Yeah Men like Théoden and Aragorn are closer the original line of Men who were long lived, Aragon more so. That's why when he became King of Gondor, he ruled until he was around 200. Théoden though old, is clearly younger than his years as he is still able to fight. That is what a lifetime of battle will do to ya. The Kings of old were like that, they didn't just sit on their butts in some fancy castle, they went out and got sh*t done.
@@SovereignDag alot older
And I believe Gimli is around 150
Eomer's voice "TO THE KING" so good
Karl Urban is a brilliant actor, have you watched him in Dredd?
Karl Urban is a badass!! 👌
Gandalf was either startled by Eomer's shout "To the King!" or perhaps needed a reminder of whoever should be leading the charge
For* the king
it still give me spines all of these years
I I have seen this trilogy dozens of times, and every time I see this scene, I cry. In my opinion this charge of the Rohirrim is even better than the battle of the fields of Pelennor. There is something about the colors, the contrast between light and shadow, the music.... It's outstanding.
Search deeper why you feel those things
Whenever I watch to this scene that getting me. it could be one of the best scenes of the LOTR series. Even the best
While Saruman kind of forgot Eomers forces, they certainly didn't forget him
@Plo Koon Dude, it was a joke.
HAHAHA 😂😂 buddy your comment is defenitely underrated
@@RGInquisitor Dude not everyone gets that reference
@@wolfgangcrabbe2211 too bad for them then.
@@RGInquisitor So, Trotsky?
I just want to point out that even though Eomer was exiled at the time of Helms Deep, he still rode to the aid of his King.
Movie yes in the books he was at helms deep the whole time. It was another leader whose forces got scattered in a fight previously that Gandalf gets. Erkbane I think but its been a while. Also no elves were present at the fight.
Loyalty
@@mandrake925 Erkenbrand
@@LordVader1094 thank you. I was close but not quite there. I need to read those books again.
@@mandrake925 other than legolas obviously
I'm now 24 yrs old and was 8 yrs old when watched LOTR. Still keep coming back here and watching the whole series every year. This is still one of the best. Can't believe 2002 when this was filmed. Super great filming.
Who the hell thought Rings of Power can top this masterpiece?
Imagine having an overpowered fake Galadriel who would turn the tide against them at Helms' Deep
The first time I watched this particular scene where Gandalf and Eomer appeared and dominated the battlefield, it made me cry and stand. Plus that epic background music. Man that was glorious!
LOTR is the best trilogy I watched in my entire life. 🔥
I litteraly teared right now rewatching these scenes... its that good.
nothing beats heroic triumph against evil theme.
I can now confirm that the orcs weakness are horses
its not a orc weakness... infantry vs cavalry = RIP
the pikeorc without form is useless
I think you mean
Gandalf: WE HAVE THE HIGH GROUND
@@VivaMessico lol. Pikemens vs horse. Its fake))) ez for orcs
@@Stoveen phantom lancer vs chao knight in wtf mode
Huge masterpiece of the Cinema
Growing up, reading the books, and yes, playing D&D, and AD&D... I watched this trilogy with tears of sheer joy in my eyes. It was like they reached into my imagination and pulled the scenes and characters out, and put them all together . The orcs, ents, elves, the castles, all of it was exactly as I had envisioned.
Everything about this scene is perfect: the acting, the music, the scenery. My god.
The CGI of the horses when seen from above and charging is a bit outdated. But yes.
As a kid I had no idea what was going on but thought that what was happening was still amazing.
As an adult, who finally understands the severity of their situation, this scene was now even more amazing.
"So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate??"
"Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them"
😭😭
lol everyone's talking about theoden's speech when they arrive in pelenor fields...
this is the BEST scene in all LOTR trilogy in my opinion...
the music, the galloping...
i don't just get goosebumps... i cry like a baby when i watch that scene!!
Agreed. Flawless scene. I was 12 when I saw this for the first time in the cinema and to this day I have never felt such dread, hopelessness and anxiety in a movie as I did during the battle for Helms Deep. And to end that with this scene was just pure relief! ROHIRRIM!
I personally like the Rohirrim charge into the Mammoth fight better, but this scene is epic as well
Rohan is the MVP in these trilogy.
I love how they displayed gandalfs power in the trilogy as light . When he chase away the nazguls , when he fought with the balrog on the bridge of kazadum , when they were passing through the darkness of moria .. and this scene . Its just so magnificent . Majestic .
This scene depicts the rising sun.
Well he does wear the Ring of Fire so....
As the Rohirrim rode down the slope, I always thought the Orcs were blinded by Gandalf's magic. But rewatching the scene made me realize it was the natural sunlight, as Gandalf had told Aragorn: "Look to my coming, at first light, on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the East."
Coolness = 100%
Realism = 0%
Gandalf and Shadowfax baby!!
One of the greatest scenes in movie history. Still brings tears in my eyes seeing it so good.
Sure the elvish swords are clearly elegant and Anduril is beautiful in its own right, but Theoden's sword "Herugrim" is just so damn regal. Definitely my favorite in the trilogy.
I agree. The two horses that make up the handle is one hell of a design
1:46 Am I the only one who loved the way Theoden said "Eomer!" He said that like how a dad says, "That's my boy!"
eoemers technically not his son but yes he does say it like that
I try to imitate him when he says that :D
@John_Banana, Well, he isn't his son, but his nephew :-)
i know
Eomer was his heir. His son was killed at the fords fighting these orcs so now eomer gets the crown from him. Rohan is based off the saxons and normandy troops of old, including armor and horses
I tear up every time I watch the moment the sun rises behind Gandalf and the Rohirrim as they ride into the ravine. I watched it in the cinema when it came out and when Gimli blew the Horn of Helm Hammerhand it reverberated through the whole theatre, you felt it in your bones. This scene had me tense and in awe, while the tears rolled down my face. I always come back to it when I need a reminder that the sun is rising.
Look to the East!!!!
Chills and tears of a pure joy and satisfaction after this video all the time. What a scene ❤❤❤❤
Remember watching this when I was a young fella and getting goosebumps when they charged down the hill. Years later and those goosebumps still come every time I watch this scene. This will always be the greatest trilogy of all time.
the shot at 1:58 is so surreal and awesome when the Rider swings his axe....such Medieval Age vibes!! Amazing Scene and Score!!
I can't find a proper word to glorify this movie, it's so so good. It got everything you need to be a masterpiece: Solid story, wonderful actors, massive FX, the music, the composition, everything is just nearly perfect.
1:02 I absolutely love that guy holding the banner to the end like “you may take us out but we’re not going down without you remembering us”
This must be the extended edition. I definitely do not remember the ents killing the uruks at the end
they were huorns, not ends, and yes it's the extended version
extended of the extended
Their not ents, their hurons.
What is a huorn ?
VexBG Huorns once were Ents, so in that line Huorns are Ents in process to become trees
2:52 there's something about Gandalfs smile that just makes you feel like everything is going to be ok even if you got 10,000 mf outside
If they ever re realesed the extended version at Theaters, it may would set a new record 🙌🏻 and I would definitely be there more than once😅
I've just downloaded the entire extended trilogy to watch on my next few flights😮
I now these movies are old but I never get tired of them 😋😋
The soundtrack of is this movie is glorious and beautiful
It means the movie of 1453,but there the greeks had not help when ottomans were attacking (greeks were 7000 and ottomans were 100.000) and now the defenders are 4000-4500 and attackers are 65000...but here,defenders have help of another persons,to the movie,greeks had not help.
