I saw a TV spot for RotK after a "Lions" preview today. I recorded it and watched the fifteen second clip in super slow-mo, and here's what I've gotten. Be warned, this contains spoilers.Aragorn is seen running on a field, then fighting orcs. This means that he gets to the Battle (you know which one I'm talking about).Gandalf is seen up on some sort of battlement as orcs climb over a nearby wall. This is not a good sign. I have a feeling that the drama element is going to drive Minas Tirith to the same fate as Helm's Deep. Sadly, this is evidence supporting that.One very good thing is a head-shot of Eowyn pulling off a dirty helmet and having the strangest looking smile on her face. One scene at least is guaranteed to be incredible, even if the first four circles fall.Also, there is a brief shot of Arwen running up to Elrond and hugging him, and one of Frodo, Sam, and Gollum standing near the entrance to an odd looking cave... I live in fearful joy, Iarwain P.S. Yes, it was implicitly stated that the trailer will be played.[ September 23, 2003: Message edited by: Iarwain ]
