      1 of the best lines in cinema. After 1 of the best take downs in cinema. Looking cool as fuck and then your mate has to put you down with some witty banter mid battle (but not cringy or forced), they really make LOTR feels so real it's amazing and it's crazy how there haven't been any filming to rival this series in my life time.

    I just noticed an interesting detail. When Legolas first jumps on the olyphant, the beast slams its trunk against its tusks as if trying to squish him. Then, when he climbs the back leg, the olyphant swats at him with his tail. That is an incredible attention to detail the animators included and I would like to holler my appreciation at them.

    I love how the writers have interpreted the three of their different fighting styles for the big screen:
    - Gimli resorts to brute force and aims for the jugular, with some occasional headbutting and basically being an unstoppable force.
    - Aragorn fights like a bandit, by utilizing both his weapon and his fists, isn't afraid to fight dirty. He always finds an opening for both offense and defense.
    - Legolas is always observing the opponent and its surroundings before exploiting its weaknesses. His heightened elven senses allow him to be always one step ahead of the enemy, and deliver a critical hit.

Merry's sword had stabbed him from behind, shearing through the black mantle, and passing up beneath the hauberk had pierced the sinew behind his mighty knee."
      Another quote: "So passed the sword of the Barrow-downs, work of Westernesse. But glad would he have been to know its fate who wrought it slowly long ago in the North-kingdom when the Dúnedain were young, and chief among their foes was the dread realm of Angmar and its sorcerer king. No other blade, not though mightier hands had wielded it, would have dealt that foe a wound so bitter, cleaving the undead flesh, breaking the spell that knit his unseen sinews to his will."
      This leads me to believe that Merry's sword broke the spell that made the Witch King invulnerable to normal weapons, and anybody who struck him next would have killed him. It just so happened to be Eowyn.

The witch king couldn’t be killed by any man, but Eowyn isn’t one, so she goes for the kill after the hobbit stabbed him and it still fulfills the prophecy that was told before. Not to mention that she’s a shieldmaiden so her combat makes sense, not some dumb Mary Sue like in Disney’s Star Wars

      In the books, there were no ghosts that came to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. The 'dead' fulfilled their oath by scaring the crap out of the Corsairs of Umbar; men allied to Sauron. Then Aragorn and the Grey Company (led by Ranger Halbarad and sons of Elrond, Elladan, and Elrohir) piloted the Corsairs' ships to the shores of Gondor.
      They arrived at the nick of the time as things were going very badly for the allies of Gondor. For the FIRST time since the Last Alliance, the standard of Numenor was displayed with the White Tree of Gondor and the Seven Stars wrought of mithril. Only then, it was a massacre of Sauron's forces. Eomer moving southwards, Imrahil and the knights of Dol Amroth to the east, and Aragorn and company north. It is one of the most stirring chapters in the book ...

    • @Thechezbailey
      @Thechezbailey 9 месяцев назад +1

      She's not an amateur or scared in the book, more like an Amazon with a genuine death wish. The first time Merry looks at her he gets scared because he sees in her eyes that she doesn't want to live anymore. She deals with depression until she hooks up with Faramir, but she is one of the best fighters in the West, and up there with Gandalf for bravest character in the entire story. She only fights the Nazgûl 1v1 because everyone else runs away, as everyone always does. The books make her very...effeminate. In reality she was written as more of a soldier than a noble lady, though tolkien usually gave his characters traits of both.

    I think why the cgi holds so well is not only they try to keep to practical effects, but they try to keep movement realistic as possible. Like how the fellbeast flys, to the elephant walks. It is a much different than having Legolas defying the laws of gravity in the Battle of the Five armies.

Aragorn then filled the now-empty ships with about 60ish Dunedain rangers, and a lot more Gondorian reinforcements...And those were the reinforcements that came in Gondor and Rohan's aid that finally turned the tide of the battle.

      I actually think that is what LOTR does so well in general, the side-characters are so important to the story and in many ways just as important as the main characters.
      Sam more than anyone, who is actually the true hero of the whole story.
      But also Merry and Pippin, Faramir, Eowyn. They don't kill dozens of orcs in a couple of minutes, but when it matters, they are in the right place at the right time.
