I'm still in Saucy. I recongized the rider in that shot as Theoden from the trailer (he's about to lead a cavalry towards a burning Minas Tirith - who else could it be). I still say it sounds like Aragorn, but we'll have to wait and see.<P>His comments regarding a "hell of a rousing speech" certainly scored on for your side though. I guess I'm banking on two rousing speeches. *** And as HC's head goes down again, he continues to desperately grasp at straws. *** <P>I agree with your assesment of Elronds words too. Recall Faramir's words while he looked over his map in Ithilien. "Isengard comes at us from the west, Mordor from the east." If had that bit before the movie, everyone would be screaming that Saruman is attacking Ithilien instead of Helm's Deep.<P>As for the purists comment. In the book Denethor is very subtle but it appears that in the movie he is anything but. I figured that may bother some people, but I just so much liked the description of that scene that I didn't care.<P>H.C.<p>[ October 14, 2003: Message edited by: HCIsland ]
