my fav scene was gollums split personalities ("leave us alone and never come back!") did anyone else like that at all? i also loved the scenes where it shows how legolas and gimli are now friends(like in the whole helms deep sequence) because in the hobbit, legolas's dad put gimli's dad and the other dwarves in jail and i always liked the idea that despite all of that, they r willing to risk their lives for the other one

I agree, I loved Gollum's debate scene. One of my favorite parts in the book was the competition between Legolas and Gimli, so I was very happy to see it included in the film, and see the friendship that grew between them. by the way, I love your name Laurelin

My favorite scene was the one in Entmoot, when Merry tells Pippin that there won´t be Shire - it´s so touching and powerful. A very nice Merry scene. Also the scene with Theoden grieving (sp?) on his son´s grave is really good, his speech there got stuck to my mind for a long time. "No parent should bury their child"..

I like Aragorn both in LotR and TTT, he grows all the time, best scene is probably in TTT the tomb scene with Arwen as the strong gray-haired king turns into stone figure.
In LotR however my favourite scene is when Gandalf arrives to Shire and small kids run after his cart and shout for fire crackers, and just when they think that nothing happen, up goes the flash. I laugh with the kids (and the man) every time with my eyes wet. By the way the beginning of the first version compared to the extended LotR is much better. But then some oddities. Have you figured out why in TTT Aragorn says "Brego" when the horse "kisses" him by the river. His horse name in the book was not Brego, was it Brego who built Meduseld? And when I first saw LotR (first night of course) there was a translation (in Finnish, as we don't dube the original voices) of Golumn's cry in Mordor torturing "Frodo, Baggins, Shire". Well, he didn't know Frodo then and actually, Frodo has been taken away from the text in newer editions. But actually his first cry sounds something like that.

The "Brego" thing has been discussed in other threads; try doing a search of the word "Brego" in this forum to find out (and yes, you're right about it I think).
Gollum screams "Shire! Baggins!" The Frodo part must have been a mistake they made in translating (the translator must not have been familiar with the book). |

I liked when Gandalf and the legion of horsemen ( I forget who they are) ride over the hill to aid in the Battle of Helm's Deep.

(In FOTR every scene with Boromir must be my favorite.. especially when he holds the ring in Carahdras and has that little talk with Aragorn in Lothlorien.)

So, Brego was the horse of the late Theored and the scene were Aragorn see the horse earlier is removed from the film (and will most probably be in the extended version). But Theored's horse is not named in the book.

But there was an historical figure named Brego -- did you find that?

The best scean by far is when they ride out to meet the orcs at the end of the battle of helms deep. The music and everytghing is just beautiful the best part is when the small erod (is that the correct term?) is just motoring down the causeway killing everything in sightand just the despair of what they are trying to do death and glory then gandalf just apearing and leading the charge of the riders and just ploughing int the orcs. The thing that most struck me is this is infact the way wars used to be forought and thats just amazing

My faverouite scene is the scene where Aragorn is getting into his armour and has finally chosen that he will comand the race of men I thought it was acted amazingly
ps Uruks are Mordor's foot soldiers it's Urik Hi that attack helms deep (I watch TTT too often, 7 times to be presise) pps I dont mean to cause any offence to any other entmoot members I'm just too much of a perfectionist when it comes to lotr |

I'll probably be attacked for saying this but the best bit by far was when Aragorn kinda swept through those doors in Rohan. Phwar. He looked very kingly. And also Legolas' shield/skateboard thing and the horse thing. All those little bits made it a really funky film.
Also, I agree, Sam's speech towards the end to Frodo was really touching and lovely. Made me cry everytime I heard it.

WHAT!? You liked the elves at Helm's Deep!? Daagh... I won't get get started. I'll just beat on something now....
But the best was when Gimli fell off the horse. And there's a site where they show some shots of the movie dubbed into Japanese, and then the Japanese added English subtitles. This is also the best there because he falls off the horse as he's laying in the middle of a huge ring of people he yells "NO NO! Nobody find out!"
