"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

Arwen: “Reforge the sword”
Elrond: “no”
Arwen: *drops book in disbelief*
Elrond: “I mean yes”
She did that on purpose! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not exactly
@@chronolynx360 Her hands were cold.
She had shed her immortality. The droping of the book is symbolic.
Arwen drops the book because life is leaving her.
just found out that these elvensmiths are real blacksmiths from WETA workshop, the company who made the weapons for the movie.
rhmclovin OMG
rhmclovin hyyyyype
When your adaptation is so on-point that you film a sword _actually_ being reforged.
Sarah Tilgner AWESOME!!
Shanah McLovin wow
*Arwen drops book*
Elrond: "My god...You're dying!"
LMAOO
I hate you for making me laugh xD
My mom when I finally hold a book after 1568557 years:
Yea that was my initial thought
Your hands are cold
When you think of it, Arwen in a way basically saved Middle-Earth.
It was her decision to forsake her immortality and the trip to the Undying Lands out of her love for Aragorn that convinced Elrond to give the race of Men a second chance, thus reforging Narsil into Anduril.
Without Anduril, Aragorn would not have gotten the support of the Army of the Dead. Without the Army of the Dead, Minas Tirith would have fallen. And had Minas Tirith fallen, Aragorn would not have been able to unite the Gondorian and Rohirrim armies into assaulting the Black Gate to lure out Sauron’s army and give Frodo and Sam an opening to drop the Ring into Mount Doom.
So yeah, give some credit to Arwen.
Bo Kross movie version yeah sure maybe
Lol awesome trying saying that last part in one breath
in the books Aragorn has Anduril the entire journey with the fellowship.
He originally intended to go straight to Gondor with Boromir but when Gandalf fell in Moria he had to become the leader of the fellowship.
You aren't wrong, but these scenes are the complete opposite of what happened in the books. In the books Elrond needed no convincing and was on board from the start of the problem. He also had Narsil reforged before the fellowship left Rivendell because he knew Aragorn would need it.
Without her all of middle Earth will be fucked
is it normal that every epic scene from lotr makes me cry?
Lorenzo Escudero King yes, me too
Let it all out. Tears can mend many awound. One should never be ashamed to cry. Tears are rain on the dust of earth.
Completely normal. I as well. Theyre just magical films.
yes
The filmmakers were very committed to making every major scene conform to an epic, or even spiritual scale. Rare in modern films. Kind of like when Dorothy steps out of her brown & white cabin, into the color world of Oz. Compared to our color world, what higher reality would we see upon stepping into heaven?
In my opinion the wardrobe of Arwen is far more exquisite than anything I have seen in medieval-ish tv-shows or movies I have seen. Props to the one who designed her dresses.
Agreed. All the design and art in these movies is remarkable. Tolkien is a genius, as much as illustrators Alan Ree and John Howe. I think weta workshop is behind most of the design of weapons and armor in these movies. 1:57 thats cameo Richard Taylor, the genius behind weta who is playing the blacksmith reforging Anduril. In a matter of fact, everyone involved in making of this trilogy is a damn genius.
@@dontdeadopeninside3781 The blacksmith with the hammer doesn't look like Richard Taylor. The other blacksmith's face is too obscured but doesn't look like him either
@@Rozeg666 My mistake... they are unnamed weta workers, not taylor. I knew something was off lol. He plays one of the corsairs of umbar from the extended edition.
Indeed. They really went all out in portraying Elven craftsmanship in every detail, including the costumes.
Ngila Dickson. I remember watching all the extras about costumes. Absolutely incredible and totally worth watching the intricate interviews. She and her teams spent ages designing and ensuring the costumes fit into the cultures, the characters, and actors. The textures, the stitching, everything. I loved it. Amazing.
This is for sure the saddest scene in the trilogy for me, and for those who read the books it hits even harder.
Basically, when humans dies, they go outside the "Circles of the World" to a fate known only to Iluvatar, God, while the elves go to Valinor in the Halls of Mandos (one of the Valar), and can resurect after some time depending on how they lived. Or just take a ship to Valinor if they did not die in Middle-Earth. And they stay on Arda (the world) until the end of times. So when Arwen chose to become a mortal, Elrond knew that after he leaves Middle-Earth, he would be separated from her forever, and forever here isnt just a figure of speech but literally until the end of times since he will live eternally in Valinor and she will exit the World as all humans do.
It's even sadder since Elrond has already lost so many people important to him, and that when he goes to Valinor he's going to have to tell his wife, who will be hoping to see her daughter again after thousands of years, about Arwen's choice.
His brother made this same choice thousands of years before. Must be even harder
@@Bob-ol6if 6000 years ago give or take :P
So bloody weird thinking in terms of thousands of years. What a ridiculous life
Oooo. A mysterious fate, plane of existence or whatever that their god knows. Sounds terrifying yet endlessly exciting.
Man I love Elrond. His love for his daughter is inspiring. Especially that look on his face when he realizes her immortality is leaving her.
Betty Ross is the Red Skull’s Daughter? 🤯
She’s Hydra.
@@ricardoortiz4870
Obviously
Hail Hydra😅
Elrond. Screw mankind. They are doomed. No hope whatsoever.
Arwen. I can’t go with you
Elrond. REFORGE THE SWORD. there might be hope after all
Fathers love
He's a good dad :D
He wanted her to take the safer, certain option, but Arwen's choice to stay and become mortal forced him to commit to the only other way she could live safe and happy, by keeping Aragorn alive and destroying Sauron
If only Arwen had been around when the Isildor refused to throw the Ring into Mount Doom, maybe then Elrond would have kicked the man in with it and none of this would have been necessary.
@@ashleighscott2208 and create another war, this time between men and elves.
@@magallanesagustin4952 At least there is reason between Elves and Man and chance for a truce maybe after they fight a few hundreds years, there is none from Sauron
“From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
So epic!
Tolkien at his peak.
Part of a poem written by Bilbo for Aragorn.
I wonder how long the eleves it took for them to get it done reforged
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all of those who wander are lost,
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost,
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadow shall spring,
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king
@@felixbonneau1834 "Bilbo snorted." from the book right?
I love how the Rivendell theme transitions into the Gondor Theme. Beautiful.
It's perfection
Seeing this in cinema in 2003 for the first time must be pricelles,I would cried whole movie if I saw it first time
@@twinkthatloveslotrtrilogy7676 indeed it was!
@@WarGamingNewbHistorical did you read books before seeing it?
@@twinkthatloveslotrtrilogy7676 Absolutely.
The forging music is so fucking epic I tear up everytime. Elronds face is too epic
Very powerful scene, the building up of the music and then at around 1:29 where you see Elrond's facial expression followed by the reforging... Epic!
The same bro, everytime.
What's the name of the soundtrack at this part?
Agreed. Powerful scene. Elrond knows, within himself, that he is doing the right thing by unleashing once again the Numenorians. He is aware that he is playing with major powers, but he also knows that unleashing Aragorn and Gondor, whom he long did not have much faith in, was the only way to save Arwen. He seems, IMO, for the first time in the trilogy certain that victory is a very real possibility. Powerful, truly.
@@warrenhughes6259 Andúril theme i think so
Each scene from this trilogy is pure poetry, pure magic.
Just like in books
I love the elves. Every time you see them in the movie it’s like you can feel their aura. That’s how good this trilogy is, they did an amazing job.
Agreed. The elves always feel ancient, wise, and dignified.
1:20 had me crying, Elrond loves his daughter, and it shows here
SPOILER ALERT: Betty Ross is the Red Skull’s daughter and she is Hydra.
1:22 i truly very sad when looking at his face in this scene.. he felt he has lost a daughter forever...
Not that he lost her, but that she was lost.
The look of concern and sorrow in Elrond's eyes when he realizes his daughter is dying always gets me... 1:20 - 1:24 am I the only one who is about to cry there?
No its very sad..
Yeah Hugo Weaving absolutely nailed it. The look of horror and then the tears in his eyes - he really did love his daughter, and the realisation that her immortal life has fled and she is now mortal strikes him to the heart
Elrond also knows that since Arwen is choosing a mortal life, she and Aragon will eventually depart from Middle Earth/Arda and go to the timeless halls with Eru (the one God) while the Elves are bound to Arda. He won’t see her again until the ending of the world or the world made anew.
I'm already crying 😭
I think it’s because he doubted the race of men (at least in the beginning). But slowly saw aragorns potential. Chose his daughters feelings over his foresight
I think Elrond sees Elros(his brother) in Arwen when she chose mortality.after Elros chose mortality,he became a king and was married with mortal,similar to Arwen who would became a queen after being married with Aragorn.
Arwen was not a mortal though. Elros was given a choice by Valar.
Arwen just dwelt after Aragorn, she didn't die a mortal death.
M Bayrak she chose mortality
@@subutaynoyan5372 she did die after Aragorn died she was given a choice because she was part mortal like elrond
I see it like this I feel like his sons are still alive in the books they were with Aragorn at the battle of pelenor fields
Aragorn being descended from Elros also makes him and Arwen cousins. So that's a thing.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost.
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
From the shadows a light shall spring.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
-John Ronald Reuel Tolkien
"A light from the shadows shall spring"
All that is gold does not glitter,
All that is old does not last,
All that is old does not whither,
Not all that is over is past.
Not all that have fallen are vanqushed,
A king may yet be without crown,
A blade that was broken be brandished,
And twoers that were strong may fall down.
-Just the same
Regal. Epic. Timeless. A literary work of art. Simple as that.
Such beautiful and hopeful poetry.
Where can I find poems like this??
0:42 - 0:50 when your favorite character dies
True :-(
Geeky Ravenclaw Aka when you read the beginning of the Two Towers when Boromir dies, the ending of the Hobbit when Thorin dies, and every single chapter of the Silmarillion when everyone dies. :(
This is how I felt when I read the Red Wedding scene in A storm of Swords.
@@TheAngelgirl1992 so true
Like Remus Lupin and Tonks.......
Your hands are cold, Mr, Anderson.
lmaooooo
LOL
Hey he is the red skull
You are dying Mr. Aderson
This is about love. Elrond reforged the sword for the love of his daughter. Aragorn took the sword for the love of his lady. 💘
A Dwarven blade reforged by Elven smiths for the hands of the destined High King of the realms of Men.
Andúril is the hopes of the Free Peoples incarnate into a single blade.
Well alot of elronds people were half elf and half man, elrond is half man alot of people dont know that aragorns decendants are all from elfs if yall didn't know lol. They choose to become half man with mortality. Elrond is aragorns great great great great uncle by like 50x lol.
Narsil was a dwarven blade ?!!
And how did it end up in the hands of Elendil ?
@@manupainkiller Narsil is an ancient blade, far older than even the fact that it was wielded by Elendil would suggest. If you look at Andúril, you can see the runic, Khuzdul engravings in the fuller are kept intact.
It was forged by Telchar of Nogrod, one of the greatest Dwarven smiths of the First Age, together with a paired knife, Angrist, the very knife used by Beren to carve one of the three Silmarils out of the Iron Crown of Morgoth.
From there the history is unwritten, but Narsil was (presumably) taken to Númenor, before it passed down the line ending in, of course, Elendil and Isildur, its shards kept in Rivendell, and then reforged into Andúril.
@@MrBlueBurd0451 Thank you !
I love hearing such bits, since I have not read the books.
And I love the Numenor-side of the lore - that's why I was interested & intrigued upon hearing that Narsil was crafted by the dwarves. (since it's a, most likely a longsword, by it's resemblence ; and not much of an use for a dwarf)
wonderful
Elrond is one of my favourite characters in LOTR. Sophistication and steel. I love the voice, too.
holy effing crap at 1:31 when he decides to reforge and the music kicks in...HOLY CRAP. will movies like this ever be made again?
no. all the great male roles will have to be replaced with women
“We will watch this, an image of the splendor of the movies of men in glory, undimmed before the breaking of the world” ❤️
im praying they never remake LOTR in my lifetime because I can't imagine any adaptation will live up to this
Conrad of Montferrat perhaps.if.they make silmarillion movies it will be so.
Your feelings from here is like hope burned
Does anyone else tear up at the heartbroken look on Elrond's face at 1:22? The expression on actor Hugo Weaving's face when he realises his daughter has become mortal and will eventually die gets me every time. Hugo Weaving really should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor for thsi role in my opinion.
There's so much to appreciate watching this Trilogy as a child and again as an adult.
“Why love if suffering is inevitable? I had a choice as a boy and as a man. The boy chose safety. The man chose life.” C.S. Lewis in “Shadowlands.”
Fits so well here
*"Why love, if losing hurts so much? I have no answers anymore: only the life I have lived. Twice in that life I've been given the choice: as a boy and as a man. The boy chose safety, the man chooses suffering."*
Fixed that for you.
I wonder if those guys forging the sword were on their way to the Undying lands and had to be brought back
Elrond's twin sons Elladan and Elrohir remained in Rivendell even after he departed to Aman. There's speculation that these two are supposed to be them. Tolkien never tells us what their final choice was.
And Glorfindel remained with them, probably many others also. Rivendell wasn't empty, even after departure of Elrond
I did some looking and digging around and as some here mentioned not all of the elves chose to leave and that some elves stayed in rivendell or other elven towns. I also don't think legalos left either, I think he stayed around for awhile to, I also looked up Aragorn and Arwen and it says that Aragorn and Arwen ruled the reunified kingdom for till Aragorn said that he was done living and died 245 years later and then Arwen went to rivendell and died a year later
Legolas and Gimli eventually went to Valinor, but many years after Aragorn died. Apparently Gimli was the only dwarf to ever go to Valinor.
@@Theri4444 Both Legolas and Gimli left Middle-Earth for Valinor. Which is odd, I still don't know how a dwarf entered the undying lands.
The build-up to this scene is so incredible. Arwen seeing her son in her Forest vision, confronting Elrond, her father realizing the life the Eldar is no longer with her.... And then the verse of the broken blade..... To the epic scene of the forge and the climactic song building, the transition of the flame to Gandalf riding. What a movie... Thank GOD for these movies.
Wait a minute…is she the daughter of the Red Skull?
That shot of the book falling - a magnificant bit of visual storytelling. I hate to bring it up but saying I'm afraid RINGS OF POWER won't be able to match this level of filmmaking would be an understatement.
Except Arwen randomly picking up a book and then immediately dropping it dramatically is objectively a bit silly, especially when they can't hold continuity between shots (the book changes pages).
Can you imagine anyone else playing Elrond better than Hugo Weaving?
I can't.
Hugh Grant. Burt Reynolds. Jerry Seinfeld.
@@NotQuiteFirst Fuck no.
Nicholas Cage ahahaha
Aerosmith could fit well i guess.
Well....there's new Elrond in Ring of Power....he's suck s LoL
18 years and that shot at 1:50 still makes me smile like an idiot
I love what Peter Jackson did for Aragorn, giving him an internal conflict of taking his rightful place as king.
That reforging scene is so EPIC! GOOSEBUMPS!!!
Best trilogy that ever was, or will be
Better than Pirates of the Caribbean, Better than Star Trek, better than Game of Thrones, better than Harry Potter, better than the Marvel Cinematic Universe (which I’m in the process of watching), even better than Star Wars. Fight me.

@@NRGgamer YES I AM SO SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS! Second Age! THIS WILL BE ABSOLUTELY EPIC! So hyped!!
But only by Peter Jackson
The hobbit trilogy was lazy. The orcs looked ridiculous
the music in these films is incredible...what am I saying every aspect of these films is incredible.
Whether or not Aragorn would follow his true calling, Arwen took that decision upon herself to make his destiny a reality. That's why this scene is so compelling to me and has aged so well after nearly 20 years
The music as Elrond retrieves the book is heartbreaking.
Can someone tell me what it’s called. Been searching for it for days now
I've combed through the OST and I'm pretty sure it is called The Grace of Undomiel :) from the Return of the King OST
One of the greatest sequences from L.O.T.R, Elrond and Arwen, re forging the sword that cut the ring from Souron's finger
Those two elven blacksmiths are true heroes.
Apparently they're two guys from Weta Workshop.
When I was young and only owned the VHS version of lord of the rings, I used to think after the preceding scene featuring Arwen, that it was Arwen who tied her hair into a bun, puts a sporty outfit and is the lass reforging Anduril at the smithy with Elrond holding the blade and helping her hammer onto it. Then I got the blu ray and realized it was two random male elves.
I thought the same!! Also saw it on VHS!
Kinda cute of Elrond to wear Arwen's cloak to see Aragorn later
these films that were the brightest of their time only get brighter as the years go by 💓
Pretty badass elven magic to reforge a sword that way..
I remember back in my college, my professor's assitant made exam questions by using LOTR story....and that's the first time in my life i face exam with happy face. Hahhah...

aged like fine wine😍
the way she transformed when she gave up her immortal life... 3 minute scene that can destroy ur soul :(
SMITHING INCREASED TO 100
200 because its Anduril flame of the west
I love Arwen’s expanded role in the movies. I think had Tolkien been told and explained why the writers did what they did and how society and cultures developed in the 20th century, he would have given it all his blessing.
I love it too, it's great, and in a way that does not destroys the fundamentals of the story. Also since Tolkien world is a legendarium there is flexibility build int.
The books are perfect as they are. Don't need modern meddling.
@@monsieurlazer48
Nothing is perfect.
Wrong. Tolkien's version was perfect, this was a perversion. Even if it didn't offend some with lesser or missing sensibilities.
@@belisariussmith9095 You're wrong, your poor lazy and subjective pointlees comment Is a perversion, but don't be offended
Another instance where Peter Jackson diverges from Tolkien. In the books, if memory serves, when Aragorn leaves Rivendell with the fellowship he's already carrying the reforged sword. Aragorn had already made up his mind to reclaim the throne when the time was right. But I get why Jackson changed it. He's a filmmaker and wanted the scene for greater dramatic impact visually, while Tolkien was writing an epic trilogy.
If they followed the books exactly the movies each would have had to be 10 hours long.
Not having the sword and not feeling prepared for kingship gives Aragorn an arc in the films that he doesn't have in the books. In the books it's (to paraphrase an old forum post I read years ago) "Still not king. Still not king. Still not king. Finally I'm king". This has much more dramatic weight. We see him earn his kingship.
@@shaneross3319 i'd love to see 10 hours long jackson's fellowship of the rings
I'll be entire honest: This is one of the points where it is an improvement over the books. In the books, Aragorn has a certain level of arrogance and haughtiness to him due to his desire to become King. In the movies that is lacking, making Aragorn a far more down-to-earth character, and giving him a character arc that provides the lesson of 'Sometimes you cannot become what you dream to be, but have to become what you are destined to be. There is no fault in that.'
@@MrBlueBurd0451 I'm not really faulting Jackson. He's a filmmaker and in movies time is precious. He didn't have the space of three epic novels, but rather had to pack a lot of story into a limited time frame. I understand why he made the changes he did.
Really find it unique to see the elven smiths. All the time they’re either soldiers in elegant armour or in fancy dress. Then these two guys are just all rugged forging a sword. Sickz
He lost his brother and daughter. Thats sad.
I love the symbolism of showing fallen leaves on the ground, implying that the elves time is coming to an end. Bravo Vince!
1:30 Narsil is reborn the great sword returns to the flames from which it was made. Sauron won't forget Narsil it defeated him once and it will do it again once it returns to the hands of the king.
and now it is Anduril Flame of the West
The love of a father 🙌🤗
who would have thought the same thing would happen to the Master sword in TOTK
It's the true love and sacrifice of Arwen, giving up her immortal Eldar spirit to choose human life for Aragorn, that pushes Elrond to go all in out of love for his daughter.

I'm not crying! You're crying!
Her hair and her dress in this scene are so nice
It was odd to me when I found out that in the books, Aragon already had the Anduril after he left Rivendell.
From what I've heard, book Aragon had already gone through the journey of acceptance that film Aragon underwent throughout the trilogy, and book Aragon sought to win the favour of Elrond by reclaiming the throne of Gondor to marry Arwen.
At least that's the impression I get.
Give Arwen credit. She forced her father to have Narsil reforged and sent to Aragorn. She allowed Middle-Earth to be saved.
Another commentor already said this.
"When you think of it, Arwen in a way basically saved Middle-Earth.
It was her decision to forsake her immortality and the trip to the Undying Lands out of her love for Aragorn that convinced Elrond to give the race of Men a second chance, thus reforging Narsil into Anduril.
Without Anduril, Aragorn would not have gotten the support of the Army of the Dead. Without the Army of the Dead, Minas Tirith would have fallen. And had Minas Tirith fallen, Aragorn would not have been able to unite the Gondorian and Rohirrim armies into assaulting the Black Gate to lure out Sauron’s army and give Frodo and Sam an opening to drop the Ring into Mount Doom.
*So yeah, give some credit to Arwen."*
I always find it funny how Arwen makes this passionate dramatic speech about reforging the sword and Elrond just walks away.
Reminds me of when I was a kid trying to convince my dad to buy something and he’d just be like “no”.
My god this sequence is good. This one and Galadriel talking to Elrond in the two towers are my favorite parts of the movies (besides the obvious ones)
Imagine the elvensmiths when Elrond was like we are going to reforge the most famous sword in the whole of middle earth 😁😅
And it was originally made by a dwarf, so they probably thought: "We're going to make it better"
Does anyone else think that the the best part of the soundtrack is the elven song and not the forging part
The best part is the two going together.
i agree with you
Nah. When the music kicks in to reforge the sword gave me chills
What’s it called??? Please answer
I love Elrond
i can't imagine how Elrond will react if aragorn betrays her... :(

Fun fact: Narsil now Anduril is a Dwarven sword, not Elvish. They reforged all the original pieces and engraved the blade, therefore it is still a Dwarven blade.
it was the dramatic book drop that convinced him
I love the way she says "dada" .. its such a strong bonding word for father and daughter.
She says ada
"how shall we reforge an ancient, broken, revered sword?"
"twat it with hammers"
It looks like the page changes between her sitting down and the closeup of the book.
Truly a beautiful scene, one of my favourites, and with a beautifully sad song to accompany it.
The two elves that repairing Narsi, sword of Elida, are Elrond's sons, Arwen's brothers, Elladan and Elrohir.
Elladan and Elrohir!!!!!
"Lord Elrond...this sword...WILL KEEEEEEL!"
So sad, majestic and beautiful
Masterpiece
''Reforge he sword''
''Sorry, my smithing lvl isn't high enough''
The music in the background accompanies the scene brilliantly evoking emotion as the characters dialogue
Reforge the sword! 🗡️🔥
Elrond's twin brother Elros chose the mortal life - he was Aragon's ancestor. Elrond and Celebrian had twins sons as well as Arwen - it isn't known what choice the twins made.
Anduril, Flame of the West.
Everything is in slow motion and to top it up there's ethereal music playing in the background.
Hugo Weaving's eyebrows are legendary.
