Commanding soldiers to retreat in the face of overwhelming enemy action is a sensible and tactically masterful approach.
Gandalf, on the other hand, committed treason by assuming command in a coup d'etat. I would even go as far as calling Gandalf's action a war crime, since it got tens of thousands killed.
The only thing he assumed control over was a small group of officers who were given a clearly unlawful order by Denethor so Gandalf stepped in to get their shit together
he put his voice over the Steward's, the rightful commander, and did so through force. Gandalf altered the fate that man chose for himself. Someone should make a youtube video about this.
Hackson portrayed him as a demented petty moron even though the original denethor was a broken old man whose constant losses and disappointments in life, coupled with the herculean effort of managing the kingdom and spying through the palantirs, made him eventually snap. Doesnt help that he disliked both aragorn and gandalf because he thought he couldnt trust them, and he was honestly right. The two frickers were lolligagging around while he alone stood against sauron

>Surrounded on 3 sides by overwhelming enemy and an impassable cliff to your back
>go ahead, flee

>Gandalf assumed control of a human kingdom through naked force
pretty sure that's against his "mission". could Gandalf have been corrupted?

dementhor
he said calmly
Chuds when they see Russia is invading their country
>Miss me wit that bullshit
*holds staff sideways*
>RIP my homie Denethor he was a real one
Why do you speak like a zoomer?
best scene in the series
Flee where? The city is surrounded you colossal moron. Am I supposed to scale the mountain against which Minas Tirith rests?
Take the Palantir and use it to incessantly call Valinor until they get tired of the ringing and help you
you can see that it's not fully surrounded, the orcs are at the front but the side gates are not blocked
That makes absolutely no sense. If there is a scene like that in the movie (I doubt it) then it's a mistake
he didnt flee so good
This outburst always made me laugh for some reason
Movie Denethor is inferior to the book one but movie Boromir is far better than book Boromir
no im mandalf, his brother
is something you don't want to hear your commanders say
Slava Ukraine! Gandalf the white supremacist orders we fight to the last man.
Wait I thought Ukraine is ~~*))?
I abandon my posts when someone puts way too much effort into a reply deboonking my claims.
