What's your fav. line in the movies or the books? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Well, I can tell you my least favorite line in the movie. At the end, when Aragorn says "Let's hunt some orc." It sounded far too Hollywood, and it would never be a line you would come across in the books.

My absolute favorite lines are in the Shire, when Gandalf is explaining the history and evil of the Ring to Frodo:

"He needs only this Ring, to cover all the lands of a second Darkness. He is seeking it, seeking it, all his thought is bent on it. They are one; the Ring, and the Dark Lord."

That was always particularly moving.

Cheers!
