This level of kino will never be reached again. I didn't realize how good I had it when I was watching an open air screening of this movie.

you're welcome homosexual
SONS OF GONDOR, OF ROHAN
MY BROTHERS
THE DAY MAY COME WHEN THE COURAGE OF MEN FAILS, BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY
AN HOUR OF WOLVES AND SHATTERED SHIELDS WHEN THE AGE OF MEN COMES CRASHING DOWN, BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY
THIS DAY WE FIGHT
BY ALL YOU HOLD DEAR ON THIS GOOD EARTH, I BID YOU STAND!
MEN… OF THE WEST!
Reminder that this speech wasn't in the books and Peter Jackson was adressing every single white man with this speech.
sweetie LOTR was written by women
>For death & glory?
>For Rohan.. for your People!
Theoden's speech was way better.
LotR needed more death. It's not that death makes a good story but when you bring that many characters to the brink of it you shouldn't have Borormir get the only tragic ending of the series.
who else you finna nix
Faramir and or Eowyn, since they are death baited for a good 10 mins or more and both have touching character development and heavy audience investment. However, Gandalf dying in FotR would have turned that story into something transcendent, I realize that's just not possible because of Tolkien. But every time I watch FotR now the perfection of the balrog chase to the slopes outside of Moria is undermined by the sequels. Long diatribes in RotK about how things can never be the same after so much suffering also ring hollow when everyone young, brave and beautiful came through basically unscathed.
I don't think Theodin was tragic because his greatest desire was becoming worthy of his ancestors in battle.
Only men really die in that universe though
The other races are reborn
>theodin
Yeah, Tolkien was a hack and should've killed Girl off.
>Boromir
>Theodin
>Gandalf
>Based book Denethor (ruined in movies)
>Sauruman and Wormtongue (books)
>fricking scourging of the shire (books)
Good list so far, without even going into the hordes of unnamed characters that die
I mean the death of good guys that the reader is invested in, not villains. People opposed to Sauron, it's not too tragic when people who joined him cop it. It is basically only Boromir and Theodin.
Denethor isn’t a villain in the books- he’s a tragic character who fell into despair from Sauron’s machinations.
Besides, both the books and the movies end with Bilbo, Frodo, Gandalf, and the elves going to the undying lands which may as well be their deaths. Books include the scourging of the shire as well.
>It is basically only Boromir and Theodin.
if you were reading them without any cultural knowledge, you would also be affected by gandalf's death
Go die in a hole grrm nobody gives a frick about your dumb edgy lotr larp series
It was a lightning in the bottle that will never be replicated. Just look at the original cast of choice, it was a small miracle they turned the roles down
Then there was RRR
Pretty crazy when you think about it. Even trash in the 2000s was better than the "best" of what we have now.
in the end, the orcs won
Shame about the final movie. The semen slurping ghost army ruined the ending for me. Who cares about the stakes and heroics when you just have a cheat code deciding the outcome.
in the books the ghosts only take out umbar’s fleet, its aragorn leading an army of various men of western gondor who come to the relief of minas tirith
Jackson is a horrible hack and his movies were shit but had great casting. In the very first scene Sauron drops a CGI nuke. Dwarves used as comedy fodder. Elves dying at Helm's Deep in droves. Featuring Legolas from the DMC series.
What are you? A seething female Black person israelite?
No. Hackson and his women writers raped the source material, you worthless israelite.
So we can agree that you are a woman israelite and perhaps a Black person.
I really did hurt your feelings, huh.
Calm down and keep enjoying your quip-filled proto-capeshit. I understand the books would be too boring for you.
You could just have said "yes", honey.
Greetings from Europe.
Israel is not Europe.
And?
It's still the best fantasy movies ever made, I don't think it will ever be topped off especially now in this day and age.
Sure if you haven't watched any European fantasy, Japanese fantasy or most American fantasy before 1990
>a speech so strong that even a woman gets inspired by it
How does he do it lads?
Theoden was a better leader
bernard hopkins tore the screen apart
truly encapsulates the mystic and glory of honorable sacrifice besung in the works of tolkien
