Coolest scene - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

In your opinion, what was your favorite scene in The Lord of the Rings? I thought a couple of the coolest scenes were when the elves stride into Helm's Deep, because the horn and the background music gives me the chills. Another was the Witch King riding his Fell Beast perched upon Minas Morgul, with the host pouring out of the gates.
But I think one of the most intimidating and awesome scenes was with the orcs of Mordor marching out of the Black Gate in ROTK. The eye of Barad Dur, shining in all of its amazing fire, overlooking the innumerable orcs, all ready for war. That scene was just great, with the eye of Sauron in the sky high above Mordor in the background, with its light illuminating the whole sky. Imagine how scared you would be if you were a soldier of Gondor, observing that show of might. *shudders* Amazing!

Wow, many scenes come to mind when I think of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, but I'll break it down by movie.

My favorite scenes from the Fellowship of the Ring would have to be the scenes with the Last Alliance, all the scenes that involved the Shire and Bree, and the battle squence at the end.

My favorite scenes from The Two Towers would have to be when Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli enter Fangorn Forest, when Merry and Pippin meet Treebeard, I also enjoyed all of Treebeard's scenes when he was carrying Merry and Pippin through Fangorn, I loved the scene with Pippin drinking the ent draught. I also loved the scene when Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli ride to Edoras and then free Theoden. I love the entire Helm's Deep sequence, and the Isengard scenes.

My favorite scenes from the Return of the King would have to be the opening scenes at Isengard, and at Edoras. I enjoyed the Paths of the Dead very, very much, it was so cool! I loved the the Siege of Gondor scenes, and the Pelennor fields scenes, as well as the Black Gate scenes. I also loved enjoyed the scene where Eowyn and Merry defeat the Witch-King. And everything that happens after Frodo destroys the Ring is great, I loved the coronation, but what I loved the most was watching the hobbits return to the Shire.

Hmmm...this is a hard one. I have many favorite scenes that I'd have to go through the movies and right down each scene... I think I'll get back to you on this one...

I like the TT ee scene where Boromir and Faramir celebrate a victory in Osgiliath and they discuss going to Imladris. I know it isn't portraying the characters fairly, but there's something very sympathic in it...

I also love the scene with Frodo and the fellowship during their first night in Lothlorien. The music that goes with that scene, and the sights inside the forest, are just so cool. They really gave me a sense of something mysterious and rich in legend.

Believe it or not but I think my favorite scene, or at least my favorite view, was seeing the Argonath. That was just awesome.
