Best/Worse lines for RotK

[Nuranar]

Why do so many keep insisting that "For Frodo" is a terrible line? I don't think it's the best, and I hadn't expected it, but I think there's more to it. Remember, right before Sauron is calling to him - "Elessar." He steps forward as if considering, then turns his back and says "For Frodo," with a smile.<BR> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>not the best battle cry in the world, considering he's talking about a three foot tall person who's probably already dead in a volcano<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I saw that line as taking everyone back to the real reason they're committing suicide before the Black Gate. It's not about them - it <I>is</I> about Frodo. It's the most they can do for him, improving his chances just that tiny bit. He's the reason they're fighting there instead of sitting in Minas Tirith, waiting for Round Two.<P>Ok, rant over. Now, for me:<P>Best line: "What say you!" He says it several times. It is the first time he acts as a king. He's displaying the strength of mind and force of will to bring others to a decision, even the Dead. He's pressing them for an answer: You can't back down on this. There's no fence to sit on.<P>Worst line: The coronation "speech." I don't even remember the lines, they were so full of nothing. Something about rebuilding this world...That's all very well and good, but as the first king they've had in how many years, I would've hoped he'd be more... nationalistic? More concerned about Gondor. At the least encouraging about the horror they've been through - not just the war, but the Steward's decline. "Rebuild this world" sounds way too modern politically safe - nice and nebulous and hard to hold to.
