Fellas, if she cries during the Ride of The Rohirrim, she's the one.
Are we so few, or what? Because there are many women tolkiendili I can asure you XD
Jajajaja You know
Denethor may be mad as a hatter, but he ran an entire football field's length while on fire. I'm impressed :)
Never thought about it like that, lol
That always bugged the hell out of me.
A bit over the top for dramatic effect :). In the book he burned on the pyre:
"Then Denethor leaped upon the table, and standing there wreathed in fire and smoke he took up the staff of his stewardship that lay at his feet and broke it on his knee. Casting the pieces into the blaze he bowed and laid himself on the table, clasping the palantír with both hands upon his breast. And it was said that ever after, if any man looked in that Stone, unless he had a great strength of will to turn it to other purpose, he saw only two aged hands withering in flame.
Gandalf in grief and horror turned his face away and closed the door. For a while he stood in thought, silent upon the threshold, while those outside heard the greedy roaring of the fire within. And then Denethor gave a great cry, and afterwards spoke no more, nor was ever again seen by mortal men.
‘So passes Denethor, son of Ecthelion,’ said Gandalf: Then he turned to Beregond and the Lord’s servants that stood there aghast. ‘And so pass also the days of Gondor that you have known; for good or evil they are ended. Ill deeds have been done here; but let now all enmity that lies between you be put away, for it was contrived by the Enemy and works his will. You have been caught in a net of warring duties that you did not weave. But think, you servants of the Lord, blind in your obedience, that but for the treason of Beregond Faramir, Captain of the White Tower, would now also be burned."
Nice to see a reaction that acknowledges the beauty of Theoden’s passing. A lot of reactors don’t seem to care too much for Bernard Hill’s character, but to me personally he is one of the most well-written and under-appreciated characters of this trilogy ❤️
As I got older and years after this came out he's become one of my fav characters. One of the great kings of cinema.
The army of the dead were a people that lived in the mountains to the west of Minas Tirith that swore an oath to fight with the descendants of Númenor when called. When Elendil marched on Mordor with Isildur and the elves, they were called on to fight Sauron with them but they fled like cowards back into the mountains. For betraying their oath, Isildur cursed them to never find rest in death (essentially become ghosts) until they answer the call of the King of Gondor.
And that was the battle at the beginning of the first movie, the one that Elrond said was 3000 years ago.
Fun fact: elves seldom blink, and Legolas only blinks in the film when he's surprised. It doesn't happen often, as in his 5,000 years he's rarely surprised, but he blinks several times when he sees Shadowfax, and once when he sees the Oliphant charging him.
When Eowyn came into contact with the Witch King by stabbing him, she was overcome with what was known as the black breath. The same happens to Merry.
This IMO is one of the few mess ups with the edit of this movie. So many reactors are confused by her suddenly being “dead” that it is fairly obvious Jackson needed a additional scene showing her falling unconscious to clarify this a bit more. Does not hurt the movie, but it but does confuse just about every first time viewer.
@@Jerome616 indeed one of the few things they could have done better, Merry hurting his arm from stabbing the witch king isn't really enough for those who have not read the books to convey that physical contact with a nazgul is harmful for the living.
It could have been portrayed a bit better, agreed. But people also seem to forget the massive impact of the gigantic flail, that broke her shield, her arm, and certainly caused severe internal bleeding. She was in quite a bad shape even before stabbing him in the face.
They also forgot to tell us that, "The hands of the King are the hands of a healer", which explains the whole Aragorn scene that follows.
1:21
Yeah, that regret for Merry to fight from Theoden was stolen from the Books. In the Books, Theoden and Merry had a close "bond" and somewhat of a friendship and Theoden didn't want his "friend" to die.
Fun fact: The scene where King Theoden clashes his sword against spears before the battle was not in the script. It was an improvisation by Bernard Hill, the actor who plays Theoden's character.
Not only that, but the props department wasn't to happy he did that, as it completely bend the sword.
@@SandiskCruzer a small price to pay for a sword.
If she cries at the ride of the Rohirrim, she's a keeper.
She's mine brah 😂😂😂 lol I wish
I love a girl who loves to react to ride of the rohirrim
“Guys want only this one thing, and it’s dusting”.
I want to like but right now it's at 69.
Freaking Eomer’s reaction to finding his sister on the field, who should have been safe back at the camp, gets me every time. Karl urban is amazing
In Helm's Deep, he gave weapons to children of simliar size and strength, to give them a chance to defend themselves. Here he chooses not to bring a guy that can't keep up with them. A world of difference. The reason he doesn't want one of his riders to carry him along, is because the horses would be likely break down from trying to carry them both at the same pace as the others move. Eowyn however, has her pick of the horses because of her position, and she's not as heavy as a man(meaning two fairly light individuals, measuring up to the weight of a rather heavy man). So that allows her to bring Pippin along, even though it was probably still quite tough on the horse.
The Ride of the Rohirrim gets me every time. They cheer for death, and even as they're dying during the charge it's their enemies that are afraid.
The film really did Denethor dirty. While he ended up in the same place in the book as he did in the film, he wasn't an incompetent crazy person from the start. He was like a more cynical Aragorn, accepting that he didn't have the strength to defeat Sauron, but still gave his all try. He lit the Beacons of Gondor before Gandalf and Pippin even got to Minas Tirith. He summoned troops from all the provinces of Gondor and sent all the civilians away to mountain enclaves. And he did the best possible strategic decisions under the circumstances; even ordering Faramir back to Osgiliath was a sensible, if risky maneuver, not a mad suicide mission. He went mad with despair in the end, but only after spending decades struggling against Sauron's will through a Palantír, like the one that Saruman had; his morals and principles were too strong to turn him to evil, but Sauron could still control what he saw, and made sure that he could only see things that would break his hope.
The tale behind the giant spider is also has great mythological depth, but it's unfortunately not really possible to relay in movie format: The Light of Eärendil that Frodo carries contains the light of a Silmaril, one of three magical jewels that contain the light from before the Sun and Moon; Eärendil the Mariner, Elrond's father, used the Silmaril's light to find the Undying Lands, and afterwards he was set in the sky as a star, still shining the Silmaril's light down to Middle-Earth. And the Silmaril's light originally came from the Two Trees of Valinor that lit the Undying Lands before the Sun and Moon were made. The Trees were killed by Ungoliant, the Great Spider, and she was the mother of Shelob, the giant spider that Frodo encounters. So the light that was once killed by Ungoliant is now used to repel her daughter's attack.
21:52 I think Éomer was more in shock; he didn't expect to see his sister on the battlefield.
Nice...you showed Gandalf's little talk to Pippin about death. Most reactors miss that incredible scene. It is a beautiful moment in the middle of utter chaos.
You'll have heard it a million time, but Eowyn was affected by the sheer toxicity of the Witch King. Just being hit by him poisoned her.
The Witch King is a modern synonym for the Internet.
21:49 Eomer's "no" is the most emotional and genuine in a movie ever
Eowyn sustained injuries when the dark energy keeping the Nazgul alive flowed out of his "face" and into her arm, nearly killing her. They basically took Merry and Eowyn to the Houses of Healing inside Minas Tirith, and Aragorn, being a king means he's also a Healer, so he helaed Eowyn and Merry.
Also, the song being sung when Aragorn heals her is sung by Liv Tyler, so even though Arwen and Eowyn never got to meet in the last film, spiritually, the characters have kind of "met", bridging the gap in their common love of Aragorn, even though Eowyn's loveis now more platonic.
In defense of George RR Martin, Tolkien did not really invent the concept of seeing elephants in battle.
Hannibal of Carthage went all the way to Rome with war elephants. That historical event left a mark on the imagination of the entire Roman Empire for centuries, and was a very current trope in medieval tales and epics.
The scene with battering ram Grond, was truly nicely done for the films, it gave the proper effect like those passages from the book:
"Great engines crawled across the field; and in the midst was a huge ram, great as a forest-tree a hundred feet in length, swinging on mighty chains. Long had it been forging in the dark smithies of Mordor, and its hideous head, founded of black steel, was shaped in the likeness of a ravening wolf; on it spells of ruin lay. Grond they named it, in memory of the Hammer of the Underworld of old. Great beasts drew it, Orcs surrounded it, and behind walked mountain-trolls to wield it...."
Denethor was a bit more complex character in the book, he was still quite wise and skilled leader, but stubborn and of iron will, additionally a fact that was omitted from the movies is that in the book he dared to use the palantir which made him struggle with the will of Sauron, which slowly but surely weakened and drove him to madness.
"Though the Stewards deemed that it was a secret kept only by themselves, long ago I guessed that here in the White Tower, one at least of the Seven Seeing Stones was preserved. In the days of his wisdom Denethor did not presume to use it, nor to challenge Sauron, knowing the limits of his own strength. But his wisdom failed; and I fear that as the peril of his realm grew he looked into the Stone and was deceived: far too often, I guess, since Boromir departed."
We learn more that after the death of his beloved wife Finduilas, Denethor became more desperate:
"2988 Finduilas dies young.
‘After [Finduilas'] death Denethor became more grim and silent than before, and would sit long alone in his tower deep in thought, foreseeing that the assault of Mordor would come in his time. It was afterwards believed that needing knowledge, but being proud, and trusting in his own strength of will, he dared to look in the palantír of the White Tower."
...
"‘In this way Denethor gained his great knowledge of things that passed in his realm, and far beyond his borders, at which men marvelled; but he bought the knowledge dearly, being aged before his time by his contest with the will of Sauron. Thus pride increased in Denethor together with despair, until he saw in all the deeds of that time only a single combat between the Lord of the White Tower and the Lord of the Barad-dûr, and mistrusted all others who resisted Sauron, unless they served himself alone.
‘So time drew on to the War of the Ring, and the sons of Denethor grew to manhood."
...
"It was only Sauron who used a Stone for the transference of his superior will, dominating the weaker surveyor and forcing him to reveal hidden thought and to submit to commands. [Author's note.]"
Unfinished Tales, Part 4, Ch 3, The Palantíri: Notes, Note 5
The ghosts or the 'Dead of Dunharrow' or 'Shadowmen' as they are sometimes called were ancient tribes that were cursed long ago by Isildur for their betrayal and oathbreaking:
"'[The] oath that they broke was to fight against Sauron, and they must fight therefore, if they are to fulfil it. For at Erech there stands yet a black stone that was brought, it was said, from Númenor by Isildur; and it was set upon a hill, and upon it the King of the Mountains swore allegiance to him in the beginning of the realm of Gondor. But when Sauron returned and grew in might again, Isildur summoned the Men of the Mountains to fulfil their oath, and they would not: for they had worshipped Sauron in the Dark Years.
'Then Isildur said to their king: "Thou shalt be the last king. And if the West prove mightier than thy Black Master, this curse I lay upon thee and thy folk: to rest never until your oath is fulfilled. For this war will last through years uncounted, and you shall be summoned once again ere the end." And they fled before the wrath of Isildur, and did not dare to go forth to war on Sauron's part; and they hid themselves in secret places in the mountains and had no dealings with other men, but slowly dwindled in the barren hills. And the terror of the Sleepless Dead lies about the Hill of Erech and all places where that people lingered.'
GR0ND approves.
That guy that was hit with the arrow that Legolos shot at 5:40 was Peter Jackson
ahhhh Eomery crying for his sister was SO emotional but I love it! They show that she was just unconcious but Eomer thought her dead
5:44 - Btw, that pirate Legolas hits is the director of these movies, Peter Jackson. XD
He has a cameo in each of them somewhere.
Whew, man! Every time Gandalf talks to Pippin about the boats leading to the Western beaches and the white shores and far green country as a sort of afterlife, I choke up every time. Howard Shore's "Into the West instrumental playing thorughout jsut makes th tears come right up outta my eyes....I need a minute......wheeeeewwwww ....... I'm okay. lol!
That seen with Eowyn and the king Theodin’s death always brings a tear to my eye. So powerful his love and pride for her even at death. His redemption.
Yes! They have such a beautiful relationship, and Theoden is one of the best characters.
13:05 lmao, imagine Theoden's speech being "Arise motherf*****s!"
The ride of the Rohirrim with the music and everything is probably the most epic thing ever; I loved your reaction to it! :D
19:12 Tolkien specifically crafted the idea of Eowyn slaying the Witch King because he hated the idea of, of all things, the literal-minded prophecy from The Scottish Play about "Birnham Wood coming to Dunsinane".
And yes, I called THAT play "The Scottish Play" as I have respect for tradition, and am just a bit superstitious...
I will say, one advantage the theatrical version had over the extended in this case is you don't see the ghost king agree to fight, which leaves you feeling uncertain and anxious. So when Aragorn finally hops off the ship, it's such a wonderful surprise and colossal relief. And heck I'd already read the books.
Eowyn es el ejemplo perfecto de cómo se puede hacer un personaje femenino fuerte, decidido y con un peso mayor en una historia.
Muchísimas películas deberían tomar nota de cómo se desarrolla un personaje así en vez de meterlos a la fuerza (cof cof Avengers Endgame)
Lo que deberian aparender los progres cineastas hoy en dia
jajajajaja me mató en el 15:38, "che todos los autores modernos son altísimo plagio" y en los subs "got a little bit of inspiration" jajajajaj que grande
@@pilarslittlestudio jajajaj es que son excelentes estos videos, aparte que seas argentina le da el toque jaja y siempre viene bien ejercitar el ingles para cuando me vaya para alla
What isn’t shown in the films is that Denethor had a Palantir (Like Saruman was using to communicate with Sauron) and it drove him mad.
The Ride of the Rohirrim is just beautiful. I've said this multiple times but the music in TLOR is my favourite character.
Fun fact. For the crowd noises they literally went to a football match and had the crowd do different chants and cheers. They then altered the noise in sound design and editing. :)
In the book, Eomer sees his sister on the battlefield during the middle of the fight, after seeing Theoden dead. He is now King of Rohan and his rage and despair is so great that the orcs flee from him and his bannermen in terror as they chant "DEATH!" AND slaughter every orc in their path, until he meets Aragorn and his forces in the middle of the battlefield. Granted, Aragorn doesn't have the army of the dead at the Battle of the Pelennor, in the books.
You should look online for the audiobook of the Battle of the Pelennor. The movies are great and all, but the book from the Siege of Minas Tirith, through the Ride of the Rohirrim and Battle of the Pelennor Fields, provides some of the most epic battle scenes I have ever read. Tolkein's depictions of the Lords and Knights of the West during those fights are poetry.
Also, the scene when Sauron's forces break down the gates with Grond and the Witchking enters Minas Tirith is extremely epic in the book. They didn't do it as much justice in the movies. In the book, you had no idea Rohan was about to arrive. After they hear Rohan's horns charging in, you finally get the chapter, The Ride of the Rohirrim, where you actually get their point of view and see their extremely quick journey to get to Minas Tirith in time. "Arise! Arise Riders of Theoden!"
Well done, Aragorn! Show of that- Sword. xd
12:49 - If memory serves they recorded the sounds for the armies at a rugby stadium, so you're pretty close!
You are right, and good on her for picking up on that.
I am not scared of spiders but the scene with Shelob (the giant spider) was kind of freaky, especially the cocoon scenes. The scene with Minas Morgul (the Nazgul city) was scary as well.
12:52 Rugby, actually. ☺️ To get the sounds of the massive Orc army, they went to a rugby match and got the spectators to chant in Black Speech and cheer and such. I believe they also used the recordings from that for the army in Isengard.
When Merry stabbed the Witch King he broke the protective spell that kept him from being killed by any of the race of Men, allowing Eowyn to deliver the death blow, which we saw. And yet, the Witch king was so evil that stinking him was deadly, which is why Eowyn and Merry both ended up in the Houses of Healing. She and Merry both lived because of Aragorn's healing craft and because of Pippen's love for Merry and Eormer's love for Eowyn, giving them both reason to stay. That whole chapter was only touched on in the movies and not well explained. I understand why Peter Jackson didn't flesh this out a little more, but I honestly think this was a mistake, because if you didn't read the books, you were a little lost in this scene. I largely agree with most of the changes Jackson made or at least understand why he made them. This one could have used a little more explanation.
7:11 - Just a bit of background on The Phial of Galadriel and Shelob the Giant Spider - The Phial of Galadriel contained light from The Two Trees, two trees in ancient times that brought light to the world. The Two Trees were destroyed by Melkor, the First Dark Lord, and Ungoliant, a primordial giant spider. The last fruit and flower of the Two Trees were made into the Sun and the Moon. Shelob, the spider that Frodo and Sam meet, is descended from Ungoliant. So, Shelob and the Light from the Phial actually have a long history together!
The Ride of the Rohirrim is my favourite scene in LOTR. The fact that they know they will probably die, but hey ride nonetheless to honor the oath they gave.
In the book it was also beautiful:
At that sound the bent shape of the king sprang suddenly erect. Tall and proud he seemed again; and rising in his stirrups he cried in a loud voice, more clear than any there had ever heard a mortal man achieve before:
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
With that he seized a great horn from Guthláf his banner-bearer, and he blew such a blast upon it that it burst asunder. And straightway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains. Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor! Suddenly the king cried to Snowmane and the horse sprang away. Behind him his banner blew in the wind, white horse upon a field of green, but he outpaced it. After him thundered the knights of his house, but he was ever before them. Éomer rode there, the white horsetail on his helm floating in his speed, and the front of the first éored roared like a breaker foaming to the shore, but Théoden could not be overtaken. Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Oromë the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shone like an image of the Sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the hosts of Mordor wailed, and terror took them, and they fled, and died, and the hoofs of wrath rode over them. And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City.
Denethor is not an idiot. He has been driven insane by despair.
13:30 we all felt that 😭😭
13:00 esa es la escena más épica de la trilogía del señor de los anillos ( la carga de los Rohirrim) ninguna otra escena se le compara.
Que bien que al fin pudiste subir esta reacción
Saludos🖐 desde Chile 🇨🇱
Yes most modern authors steal from Tolkien , George "R R" Martin even stole the "R R"
Tolkien is so important I'm not even sure we can call that stealing, he just created a whole genre, or at least made it very popular. If you're writing fantasy, you have to use a little bit of his work. It's like having robots in a science fiction movie ^^
@@GuillaumeG-oz3hz I would say horses are to fantasy what robots are to sci fi. I don't think that was the best comparison. Lord Dunsany wrote of fantastical places and fairy folk. Clark Ashton smith or Robert E Howard had plenty of stories with wizards that were nothing like Gandalf before Tolkien wrote lord of the rings. Tolkien is quoted as saying "he rather liked the Conan stories" . So there was fantasy tropes before Tolkien's. Tolkien however set the gold standard for the genre and his vision became the vision most people have fantasy worlds. It is safer and more economically sound to "borrow" from Tolkien's work.
" If you're writing fantasy, you have to use a little bit of his work ".
I don't think it is required if you have your own compelling story. It might be a case were publishers and studios prefer safer Tolkienesque works and authors strive for that to get work. The original publishers thought they would lose money on LOTR but thought it was a work of genius so published it anyway. I wonder how many authors in this day and age could have a work as monumental as LOTR but the publisher/studio want the "safe" formula ?
P.S
I might be wrong , I am just an internet opinion guy and I think I made up the word Tolkienesque because spell check doesn't recognize it.
A giant caterpillar would have provided a whole different vibe...😂😂
If you're anything like us nerds, you'll feel the exact same emotions every single time you re-watch it!
La escena de la carga de los rohirrim en los campos del pelennor es, para mi, la más brutal en cuanto a ser un desborde de sentimientos en una escena bélica. Juego de tronos o el universo Marvel han intentado escenas similares, incluso cargas de ejércitos, directamente, pero no han podido acercarse siquiera al nivel de culmen de historia, imagen, BSO exquisita y discurso que se da, todo a la vez, en esa escena. Simplemente BRUTAL.
Ayer me quedé hasta las 5:00 de la mañana viendo las primeras partes de tus reacciones, que bien me lo paso y que rápido se me pasa el tiempo, sigue así!
She cried during the Ride of the Rohirrim. She passed the test.
It may well have been a stadium crowd, since Peter Jackson actually went to rugby matches here in NZ to record chants and things
Esto es una joya de la literatura y del cine, la majestuosidad de esta saga es sublime, además de lo bien que a envejecido.
13:30 vi la película alrededor de 400 veces pero sigue haciéndome llorar eso... la música, la escena, lo que significa todo, ... nosé, es increíble
@@pilarslittlestudio es tremendo, y la música aporta el 50% de las sensaciones durante toda la trilogía
No soy un hablante nativo, pero me gusta la palabra 'fantasma', es más epica que "ghost".
Me hace sonreir cada vez :-)
The Army of the Dead were not those that fell in the battle against Sauron. Legolas explains that they were men that failed to uphold their oath to fight for Isildur, so he cursed them.
Ay no me puedo contener xD Eowyn sufre el hálito negro, que es un tipo de dolencia mortal que provocaban los nazgul a los que se aproximaban demasiado. Por suerte como ya has visto, Aragorn la salva.
Another cool elf called Fingolfin who fought the First Dark lord like 40,000 years ago or something like that (Sauron's original Boss)
In that vast shadow once of yore
Fingolfin stood: his shield he bore
with field of heaven's blue and star
of crystal shining pale afar.
In overmastering wrath and hate
desperate he smote upon that gate,
the Gnomish 1 king, there standing lone,
while endless fortresses of stone
engulfed the thin clear ringing keen
of silver horn on baldric green.
His hopeless challenge dauntless cried
Fingolfin there: 'Come, open wide,
dark king, your ghastly brazen doors!
Come forth, whom earth and heaven abhors!
Come forth, O monstrous craven lord,
and fight with thine own hand and sword,
thou wielder of hosts of banded thralls,
thou tyrant leaguered with strong walls,
thou foe of Gods and elvish race!
I wait thee here. Come! Show thy face!'
Then Morgoth came. For the last time
in those great wars he dared to climb
from subterranean throne profound,
the rumour of his feet a sound
of rumbling earthquake underground.
Black-armoured, towering, iron-crowned
he issued forth; his mighty shield
a vast unblazoned sable field
with shadow like a thundercloud;
and o'er the gleaming king it bowed,
as huge aloft like mace he hurled
that hammer of the underworld,
Grond. Clanging to ground it tumbled
down like a thunder-bolt, and crumbled
the rocks beneath it; smoke up-started,
a pit yawned, and a fire darted.
Fingolfin like a shooting light
beneath a cloud, a stab of white,
sprang then aside, and Ringil drew
like ice that gleameth cold and blue,
his sword devised of elvish skill
to pierce the flesh with deadly chill.
With seven wounds it rent his foe,
and seven mighty cries of woe
rang in the mountains, and the earth quook,
and Angband's trembling armies shook.
Yet Orcs would after laughing tell
of the duel at the gates of hell;
though elvish song thereof was made
ere this but one - when sad was laid
the mighty king in barrow high,
and Thorndor, 2 Eagle of the sky,
the dreadful tidings brought and told
to mourning Elfinesse of old.
Thrice was Fingolfin with great blows
to his knees beaten, thrice he rose
still leaping up beneath the cloud
aloft to hold star-shining, proud,
his stricken shield, his sundered helm,
that dark nor might could overwhelm
till all the earth was burst and rent
in pits about him. He was spent.
His feet stumbled. He fell to wreck
upon the ground, and on his neck
a foot like rooted hills was set,
and he was crushed - not conquered yet;
one last despairing stroke he gave:
the mighty foot pale Ringil clave
about the heel, and black the blood
gushed as from smoking fount in flood.
Halt goes for ever from that stroke
great Morgoth; but the king he broke,
and would have hewn and mangled thrown
to wolves devouring. Lo! from throne
that Manwë bade him build on high,
on peak unscaled beneath the sky,
Morgoth to watch, now down there swooped
Thorndor the King of Eagles, stooped,
and rending beak of gold he smote
in Bauglir's face, then up did float
on pinions thirty fathoms wide
bearing away, though loud they cried,
the mighty corse, 3 the Elven-king;
and where the mountains make a ring
far to the south about that plain
where after Gondolin did reign,
embattled city, at great height
upon a dizzy snowcap white
in mounded cairn the mighty dead
he laid upon the mountain's head.
Never Orc nor demon after dared
that pass to climb, o'er which there stared
Fingolfin's high and holy tomb,
till Gondolin's appointed doom.
Thus Bauglir earned the furrowed scar
that his dark countenance doth mar,
and thus his limping gait he gained;
but afterward profound he reigned
darkling upon his hidden throne;
and thunderous paced his halls of stone,
slow building there his vast design
the world in thraldom to confine.
Galadriel is Arwen;'s grandmother, btw.
La entrada de los nazgul es una belleza de escena
*upon seeing the GOT memes about the elephants not showing up while she's speaking in a language I'm not fluent in* "captain america voice" I get that reference!"
Congratulation on clearing the blocks.
12:50 I believe the sound effects team went to a few cricket stadiums and asked the audiences to roar in different ways to get some really large crowd sounds, so not far off 😆
Regarding LotR being an "inspiration": well... yeah... Tolkien's work is the sole reason the fantasy-genre, as we know it today (and the last 70 years or so), exists in the first place. Without it, things like Dungeons&Dragons wouldn't have even existed. If i'm not mistaken, it's the most-sold book after the bible. To quote someone (can't remember who and where I read this, years ago): "The English speaking world is divided into those who have read The Lord of the Rings, and those who are going to." It has had a huge influence on so many people.
Having said that, I agree that some of those didn't have too much own original thought.
3:00 Nope, no Dwarves besides Gimli in this Battle. At that Time, they lay under Siege in Erebor.
Eres de las pocas que dejan la carga de Rohirrim. Una de mis escenas favoritas en toda la trilogía. Espero ver otra saga en tu canal.
10.09 The arm with the sword belongs to Peter Jackson, so that's another 'cameo' in LOTR:).
15:35 cuanta razón tienes... Es que Tolkien era un genio.
No plagiarism here :) The Lord of The Rings trilogy came out between 1954-1955.. I think every fantasy book/film since has been inspired by Tolkien work.
steward denethor was not always like this, he was using a palantir to defed againts saurons armies and sauron actualy could not break his will, but later sauron floded his mind with visions of death/doom and thats what break him.
I'm SO HAPPY you finally could upload this! I'm sorry you had to spend so much time editing and re-editing. Interesting questions about the soldiers of the dead, the way it is explained in the movie is a bit confusing. Basically, Isildur came to the people who lived in those mountains, and they swore an oath to fight for the king of Gondor when they were summoned. As the war against Sauron broke out, Isildur summoned them, but they did not answer the call, so Isildur curses them to this fate: They shall never rest until their oath is fulfilled. That means they died, but their souls kinda lingered, and they become gosts. Aragorn uses the reforged sword to show that he is the true king of Gondor, and that they can fulfill their oath, to finally be set free. Sorry about the unnessecarily long winded nerd-out :p Hope it explained it!
05:49 ¡Y Legolas mató al director de la película!
el final que GOT no pudo tener...
Exacto
La carga de los Rhoirim, la escena mas epica de todos los tiempos
seeing you fangirling over Aragorn so much (honestly, gurl, saaame) i wonder why Eomer seems to never garner such attention, cause to me he is hot as hell
Oh yeaaa, he is
15:35 no por nada es considerado el padre de la fantasía épica. El tipo es un maldito semi dios, no era de este mundo jaja
Dato curioso: lo que theoden le dice a eowyn al morir (conozco tu rostro...) Es lo mismo que le dice cuando Gandalf lo quita del hechizo por el que Saruman lo controlaba en Las dos torres
Joder, lloré con ella en la Carga de los Rohirrim
The answer to the Rowling question is "yes, yes it is".
Best reaction to the charge of the Rohirim I've seen of all the reaction !!!
5:47 curioso ese al que mato Legolas es Peter Jackson el director de la película
Las vi como 14 veces pero no se como haces para que las esté viviendo más intensamente que nunca, que clase de brujería es esta????
Como dijo Nazgul el Rey brujo el señor de los Nazgul que ningún hombre puede matarlo . Hay una profecía de Glorfindel quién daría muerte a Rey Brujo el Señor de los Nazgul. Y se cumplió
Those were a lot of natural 20, Legolas.
El ejército de los montañeses nunca fue a combatir, por eso Isildur los maldijo para que no pudieran descansar en paz hasta que hubieran cumplido su juramento de pelear por Gondor.
2:00 esos fantasmas están en pena pues no acudieron al llamado de su rey en su tiempo, rompiendo así su juramento, Aragorn al ser el rey actual les dio su palabra de que si lo ayudaba rompería esa maldición que padecían y podrían irse en paz
please also react to the hobbit!! it’s the prequel of the lord of the rings but made 10 years later (by the same people) and though nothing beats lotr, it’s brilliant :) so if you enjoyed this then i’m sure you’d love that too! even just to watch in your free time 💗
5:48 Peter Jackson
Buenas, tengo una duda. ¿Cómo haces para que no te salte el copyright en seguida? Yo he tratado de subir fragmentos de la película y me lo detecta siempre.
It's not copy about the giant spider: Tolkien and his universe is the father of every fictional universe of today (HP, GOT) so of course you found same ideas (like the giant spider but Ungolianth, mother of all spider in LOTR universe is bigger than this one in the movies ^^)in GOT, Harry Potter, ... because Rowling, Martin, ... study Tolkien story
as if other people couldn't have come up with a "big spider" on their own.
@@TopKunt the big spider it's just an example if you want more you have the ring in LOTR/horcrux in HP, ...
4:52 ni tan simbólico si la espera hasta último momento y después la escupe xD
The Dead (the White Mountains people) had broken their oath they swore to Isildur to fight against Sauron. They pledged blood on a spherical stone that was brought from Númenor, the Stone of Erech. When they broke that oath Isildur cursed them never to rest until their oath was fulfilled. Then the people lived out their lives but their ghosts were collected in the mountains instead of going to the Halls of Men. They stayed there for more than 3000 years. Until Aragorn, the Heir of Isildur, summoned them by the Stone of Erech. Aragorn, when he wrested the Palantir of Orthanc from the spell of Sauron, saw the danger coming to Mnias Tirith on the shiops coming from Umbar with an army that would fight for Sauron. With the aid of the Dead, the tide was turned.
Qie genial que no forzaron a la mujer fuerte, como actualmente hacen en todo, tanto que causa rechazo del auditorio; esa escena de Eowyn matando al rey brujo es épica.... Aprende netflix.
5:47 is Peter Jackson ;)
5:24 es pegadizo jaja
algo q quedara en mis recuerdo para siempre!!!
This is exciting!!
Poor Shelob never gets any love ;_;
9:59 lol !!!
te empezo a caer bien Theoden en la tercera peli?
si fue unos de los mejores reyes de su reino, y de todos en general.
Respeto por favor
vengo del primero a comentar que ya estoy en el segundo...proximamente voy a tercero a hacer un comentario parecido a este!
La carga de los Rohirrim en esta parte... Chills. Uno de los momentos más épicos de la historia del cine.
Late to the Party. Éowyn was injured by stabbing the Nazgûl, as was Merry.
