I might as well have an answer for my own thread....

I love (even though it never happened in the books) the scene of the elves marching into Helm's Deep. I love that, its so powerful and makes you feel like saying "Yeah, Uruk-Hai! What now? Byaaah!"

The charge of the Rohirrim is a given. That is probably the defining scene of ROTK. And I love it when the last army stands before the Black Gate, which opens and out pours the army of Mordor with Barad-Dur watching in the distance. That scene is so well done.

You know...I can't really say which is my favorite scene. There are so many...and I never thought about having a favorite scene. But...the Mount Doom scene where Frodo claims the Ring for himself is pretty stirring and I think very well done. I don't like Frodo falling off over the edge, but eh well.

In all the ovies, all the scenes are good (but I would have liked to see some TOm Bombbadil). THey are great movies, but I think the scene where gandalf comes with Eomer is quite nice (though not described like that in the book. I like all the extra Gandalf bits for some reason). THe Pellenor fields are good, annd I like the part where Sam carries Frodo up the mountain.

The most amusing scenes are in EE, especially the drinking game and the Aragorn/Eowyn thing with the stew
