By far the charge of the Rohirrim in the Battle of the Pelennor Fields.

I get a chill every time I watch that scene.

As its been said many times before: I also like the lighting of the beacons for the same reasons.

As for scenes I like:
Part of me truly wants to like the little Houses of Healing scenes thrown into the EE of Return of the King. Really truly wants to because that chapter and 'The Steward and the King' are my favorite chapters in the books. But in the movie its just so short and kind of, well, yeah. I do like in the commentary when Karl Urban said he needed to be beside Eowyn in the scene where she is healed. At least I think he said it. I should rewatch them.

I do like the charging of Osgiliath though. I like the interplay of the song and how it sounds right and pretty much a lot of things about it. I thought it was well done and very well acted.

Not sure which other scenes I like. I do like the way Moria looks when they are trying to escape and I have a thing for the Rohirrim but not sure if I would call them favorite scenes.

I remember that the first time I saw that scene I thought, "Where's Merry!"

I also adore the Rohirrim charge scene. There's just something in Théoden's speech that makes you wanna get a horse and follow him to Death and Glory. All the Riders screaming "Death" in unison... Perfect scene.

Than there is one more scene I especially like. It's set in Lothlorien, when Boromir talks to Aragorn about the White City. This scene is absolutely fantastic and I think shows Boromir's true nature and value.

The scene where Gwaihir rescues Gandalf from Orthanc

Boromir's last stand

Entire battle of helms deep, especially when the elves arrive

Charge of the rohirrim (Both helms deep and pelennor)

TheOrcWithNoName · 05-21-2009, 06:35 AM

Boromir's last stand at Amon Hen defending Merry & Pippin

The charge of the Rohirrim at Helm's Deep & Pelennor Fields

The self-argument/torment between Gollum/Smeagal

The Council Of Elrond

Boromir's war-cry atop the towers of The White City.

#1 Frodo leaves for the Undying Lands ...no words to explain why. All the actors perform beautifully.
#2 Gandalf comes back! While watching the film, I jumped, saying, "He's back! Yay!!!"

#3 Pip's song.
#4 Sam carries Frodo!
The list is endless, so I'll stop now.

Haldir's death, thereby rectifying that which never should have been.
