This. Stupid homosexuals didn’t even hit anything. Elves carried the battle.
I get bookgays whining about this because it is so dumb, and it’s as if the Rohan militia couldn’t defend their own fortress (that half of them have inhabited for years).
Yeah I don't understand why they were waiting for the Uruks to finish their little war chant.
You would do something like that when you're fighting an honourable enemy in accordance with certain rules of battle. You show them the courtesy because you want them to return said courtesy.
But it's well known that the Uruks and indeed all Mordor forces have no intention of showing any courtesy or honour whatsoever. They very much plan to kill every single one of your soldiers wounded or otherwise, murder and enslave all your civilians, ransack everything, etc. etc.
Which is why it's perfectly reasonable to show them no courtesy in return, just like here
in which Aragorn was perfectly justified in decaffeinating the shit-eating ambassador of a nation that would gleefully skin alive any ambassador you sent to them.
Why are these movies so moronic, do americans think being dumb is somehow cool?
in book a group of archers held a trench, only retreating at the last possible moment
Original story written by an English guy, guy in the picture grew up in Venezuela, Denmark, and Argentina, movie was written and directed by a guy from New Zealand, movie was made in New Zealand with a mostly English main cast. Moron.
So are we just going to ignore that anyone can make an invincible, immortal ghost army just by having some guys make an oath then break it? Sauron could make millions of ghosts and take over the whole world easily.
I hated this fricking part of the battle. WHY THE FRICK WOULD YOU HOLD? YOU AREN'T SHOOTING INACCURATE MUSKETS YOU FRICKING moronS!!! YOU HAVE POWERFUL LONGBOWS THAT SHOOT WHERE YOU POINT THEM!!!! JUST KEEP SHOOTING UNTIL THEY'RE TOO CLOSE!!! WTF!!!!!
Yeah rewatching the movies I don't understand his beef with Gondor at all >Gondor? Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell? Where was Gondor when our enemies closed in around us!?
Probably fighting the same war they've been fighting on the litteral footstep of the country of evil for generations while all you had to do was not name the guy called WORMTONGUE your chief advisor.
Why is Boromir’s dead so sad bro? At one moment he’s a chump, then he says “I’m sorry Frodo” and you feel sorry for him, then he dies. It’s all very tragic.

Wow. Work really is the same no matter where you go.
it's just weird innit. it doesn't make sense to have elves march on foot directly from lorien and somehow arrive at the perfect time just before the uruks show up. how did they know that theoden was planning to hold up in helm's deep anyway.. thematically it ruins the elves and makes them seem like buttholes if they had available geared infantry regiments ready to march at a moment's notice and now randomly decided to help people out finally
Elrond and Galadrial were a week prior having their magic/psychic chat about trees not being green and birds singing dirtier songs when an elven scout arrived and told Galadrial that Theodens people were marching to Helm's Deep.
The scene in the extended edition where they talk about if they should help leaves out the part where Galadrial send out a company of archers headed by her fat Elven Captain whats his name.
They march out and arrive just in time because on of the Captain's Lieutenants promised a great reception by the Humans.
My source: Trust me bro
NOOOOOOOOO YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO JUST START KILLING ENEMIES BEFORE I GIVE THE COMMAND
YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL I SAY IT'S OKAY!! YOU'RE RUINING EVERYTHING!!!!!!
>Kill the attackers!
>NOOOO NOT LIKE THAT
what an autist
>chops off messengers head later
>Old men and boys! Hold this 200lbs war bow at full draw for like 5 minutes for some reason! We must let them finish their war chant!
They were seconds away from changing their minds and walking away

It's like playing the all blacks
do your tribal larp on your own time you're holding up the game
Why didn't the eagles drop bombs on them in this scene
>I am here to negotiat-ACK!
NOO WAIT ONLY SAURON CAN DO WAR CRIMES WAIT HOLD ON

but why didn't they rape? did they not know what rape was?
stalling, waiting for the fifth day.
MMMYYYYEEAAARRRGGHHHHH
but really it is a warcrime to do this aragorn should know better, he went to the rivendell school of diplomacy for his formative years

peter hackson is a kiwi
get uncle sams dick out of your brain

>literally can’t stop thinking about americans
Haha.. europussies.

Why didn't they poo into their own hands and then throw them are the Uruks to demoralise them?
Uruks are literally plants that were dug up from the ground.
I don't think they are afraid of fertilizer
So are we just going to ignore that Aragorn's blade deflected a ghost sword and was able to grab and choke the ghost chief with his own hands?
So are we just going to ignore that anyone can make an invincible, immortal ghost army just by having some guys make an oath then break it? Sauron could make millions of ghosts and take over the whole world easily.
he could have, but aragorn found a 0day and used it to defeat him
god the entire oathbreaking army subplot was so moronic
In the book all they do is help Aragorn boatjack the Haradrim sonhe can get his boys to the battle
It really is the LOTR version of "why didn't they just fly the eagles to mordor?"
Why was he so fricking scared of dying again? Isn't that what he wanted?
wasnt his sword special in some way?
Fricking no attention span zoomer morons.
Aragorn wasn't yelling at the guy, he was yelling for everyone else to hold fire. Archers have limited ammo and they're supposed to fire in volleys.
I hated this fricking part of the battle. WHY THE FRICK WOULD YOU HOLD? YOU AREN'T SHOOTING INACCURATE MUSKETS YOU FRICKING moronS!!! YOU HAVE POWERFUL LONGBOWS THAT SHOOT WHERE YOU POINT THEM!!!! JUST KEEP SHOOTING UNTIL THEY'RE TOO CLOSE!!! WTF!!!!!
Muskets are more accurate than longbows, however
no
Look it up. Musketeers btfo archers almost every time.
Bet the rohan civvies were wishing they had voted for a higher military budget in the last election at this moment
More like that they wish that the free folks had a defensive alliance against the orcZ
True, a Middle Earth Treaty Organization (METO) would have scared off any attack. A weakened METO just emboldened Sauron
Nice
>gets mindraped by a wizard
>blames Gondor
Yeah rewatching the movies I don't understand his beef with Gondor at all

because fellowship is the only good lotr film
Because it's Sean Bean.
>we have Boromir’s death at home
Why didn't they just nuke Mordor?
Didn't invest in that tech tree
Maybe they don't have a lot of arrows idk, but were it not for the bomb the orcs wouldn't have made it past the walls
why didnt they let the orcs finish their little pike dance?
>he screamed calmly
>put years of effort into honing a skill
>veteran of multiple wars
>end up in a siege with a suicidal enemy that will fight to the last man or murder everyone in the castle
>land a 1 in 1000 shot through a chink in a highly armored enemy in a anatomically critical spot

>your homosexual nepo babby boss that's 25+ years younger than you and just spent the last 10 years wandering the wilds "finding himself" by smoking pipeweed and elf-fricking

Wow. Work really is the same no matter where you go.
Elves at the hornburg make my blood boil to no end. I hate it i hate it i hate it
That part was based though. If anything there should of been elves at Minas Tirith and The Shire too
it's just weird innit. it doesn't make sense to have elves march on foot directly from lorien and somehow arrive at the perfect time just before the uruks show up. how did they know that theoden was planning to hold up in helm's deep anyway.. thematically it ruins the elves and makes them seem like buttholes if they had available geared infantry regiments ready to march at a moment's notice and now randomly decided to help people out finally
>how did they know that theoden was planning to hold up in helm's deep anyway..
Their elven eyes saw the column of people going to Helm's Deep

Literal DnD tier teleporting army
>yes, draw your war bows and hold for a whole minute until your arms are exhausted for no reason
>when I yell "fire" you will loose
>wait until they get really close to you use our long range weapons!
English longbows where mostly used within 50meters my dude
>valley filled with densely packed enemies
They couldn't miss
It was raining and the orcs were armored and had shields. Even elves need to aim carefully and don't have infinite arrows.
