A scene that made me want to get up and fight was when Faramir was riding towards Osgiliath when Denethor sent him....it's so sad...but it makes me wish that I could be that brave...

And, as Boromir88 said, the scene with Theoden at Helms Deep at the very end...

I'm with Imladris... that scene brought tears to my usually dry eyes. I also love Boromir's death scene, very emotional as well.

I always get an adrenaline rush screaming "DEATH!!!" along with the Rohirrim.

It's always great when you read other peoples posts and you get chills...That's usually a good sign

For me..any scene with Eowyn. Miranda Otto is such a wonderful actress

Aragorn: What do you fear my lady?
Eowyn: A cage..to stay behind bars until use and old age accept them. When all sense of valor has gone beyond all recall or desire.

And of course the give in..
Eowyn: I am no man!!!

Also the scene in the EE of TTT when Eowyn is singing at Theodred's burial

All scenes with Grima and Eomer

Grima: Why do you lay these troubles on an already troubled mind? Can you not see? He is wearied by you..malcontent...your war-mongering!
Eomer: War-mongering? How long ago was it when Saruman bought you!? What was the promised price Grima? When all the men are dead you take your share of the treasure!? Too long have you watch my sister...too long have you haunted her steps!!

Oh! Scenes with Sam. Sean Astin is an inspiration.

Sam: I made a promise Mr Frodo! A promise! Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee! And i don't mean to! I don't mean to.

Sam: I may not be able to carry the ring, but I can carry you!!

That's all for now. I'll warrant there will be more later.

I love the scenes between Theoden and Eowyn (and they really get good in ROTK). Since Eomund was dead, I always thought of Eowyn and Theoden having a close relationship, and the movies really brought that out.

I never reallly got that feeling before. Normally I'm like a normal person and I'm just sitting lazily in my theatre seat.

UNTILL......

The battle at the gates of Mordor in RotK. When Aragon's doing his speach and the gates are opening, the music is glorious, and Sam and Frodo are on the slopes of Mount Doom. All of that just stirs your emotions so that by the time Aragorn says "for Frodo" the only thing stopping me from getting up and following the charge is I'm afraid of getting kicked out of the theatre.

To me that is my favorite scene. Viggo has so much charisma and the fact that the hobbits are the first to follow give it heart.

can't wait to watch it a home.

Ohhh!! I feel the same exact way about that part Rose. That one is absolutely wonderful. I especially love the fact that the Hobbits ran out screaming first. That part was great. There are so many in ROTK!

Aragorn: My friends! You bow to no one!!

Then the part where Barad-dur starts to crumble. The theatre I was in gave a standing ovation to that part. It was truly a magical experience.
