The Lord of the Rings (2003) - Defence of Minas Tirith - Final Part [4K]

"That still only counts as one!" One of my favorite Gimli lines ever.

While legolas's badass moment was indeed badass, let us not forget that Eomer killed two of those things with one spear throw earlier in the movie. Eomer is the underdog badass of all Lord of the Rings characters

I really like how Aragorn and Gimli saved Eowyn. It wasn't a 'I can see you from across the battlefield and will make my way over'. It was just as they were passing through. They didn't know who they just saved.

Eowyn, having just downed an unfathomable ancient horror, with a broken arm, facing another orc captain, starts going for a weapon. A true shield-maiden of Rohan, everyone.

“There’s plenty for the both of us, may the best dwarf win!” Gimli was and forever will be a national treasure

Sauron: "I have an army." Aragorn: "We have a Legolas."

I just noticed an interesting detail. When Legolas first jumps on the olyphant, the beast slams its trunk against its tusks as if trying to squish him. Then, when he climbs the back leg, the olyphant swats at him with his tail. That is an incredible attention to detail the animators included and I would like to holler my appreciation at them.

3:46 I love how Aragorn just casually asked Legolas to handle whatever was coming, and Legolas turned around to see a fucking war elephant all armored up with a bunch of warriors on it. And Legolas just goes for it like it's totally normal.

Imagine in your last moments hearing the mysterious elf cry out eighteen . . . soon later as you begin to fade and your buddy is slain nineteen . . .

I'm just impressed that the CGI of this film still holds up after 16 years

I love the look on Theoden's face when he sees the Witch King at 0:22. It's just this "You've got to be kidding me" look.

I love how the writers have interpreted the three of their different fighting styles for the big screen: - Gimli resorts to brute force and aims for the jugular, with some occasional headbutting and basically being an unstoppable force. - Aragorn fights like a bandit, by utilizing both his weapon and his fists, isn't afraid to fight dirty. He always finds an opening for both offense and defense. - Legolas is always observing the opponent and its surroundings before exploiting its weaknesses. His heightened elven senses allow him to be always one step ahead of the enemy, and deliver a critical hit.

Whenever Aragorn sees trouble, he shouts only one word. LEGOLAS

I love how Aragorn is a deadly swordsman but every now and then throws hands mid-battle. You can take the King out of the Wild, but you can't take the Wild out of the King.

You watch this in 2022 and you wouldn't believe this was done 19 years ago. The special effects are amazing

"No man can kill me." "I am no man." I love that line, it sounds like the answer to a riddle.

I can imagine Eowyn and Faramir telling stories to their kids like: Son: WOW MOMMY YOU KILLED THE WITCH KING! Daddy what were you doing during the Battle of Minas Tirith? Faramir: Your grandfather tried to burn me while I was asleep

Damn, how does the CGI here not look even a little outdated? It actually looks better than most CGI today

The film doesn’t get enough credit for how it portrayed Eowyn. I think most can agree that studies and directors try to force the female empowerment aspects in films nowadays and it can come off forced but it was so effortlessly done with her character, the “I’m no man” line is seriously one of the most badass things in any movie period, she’s so great that even in the face of terror she overcomes it for the greater good

In this scene, what really stands out to me is the love of a niece for her Uncle. The men in her life want to protect her, but she also wants to do her part. Such a powerful story for these days, we can all work together to help each other reach our goals.
