I love Theoden. That's why it annoys me when people try and shade him. He is the best KING in LOTR. No it is not Aragorn. Aragorn was a loner..running and hiding from his destiny. He knew nothing about being a king. He displayed his naivety when he interfered to stop Theoden from killing Wormtongue. That was a clear mistake and what makes Theoden such an essential character. Aragorn had to learn how to be a king FROM a king. His time around Theoden influenced and trained him on how to be a leader of a kingdom. This is also why Theoden had to die, so Aragorn could be elevated to being the King of both realms of men. LOTR is as much about Aragorn's journey as it is about Frodo's. He had to be trained to be a leader. It was first Gandalf who showed him how to lead a fellowship. This is why Gandalf dies in the narrative although they brought him back. After Gandalf dies is the first time you see Aragorn step up to lead everyone. He starts to not just be a formidable ranger but a leader. Boromer reminded him of his duty and honor to men. His death reminded him of his purpose. But it wasn't until being in the presence of Theoden that he learned how to be a king.

The greatest movies ever. The greatest trilogy ever. You can feel the love for the source material in the film. Everybody at the top of their craft - from the acting to the costumes to the music to special effects to the makeup to the set builders and artists. The stars all aligned to produce something truly special. Doesn’t happen often. Maybe once in 2 or 3 generations. So happy it came out when it did - it couldn’t be made today.

well I will say YMMV on that. My wife loves fantasy, and even enjoys the LotR films, but she has bounced off the books multiple times over her life. She's a voracious reader, but something about Tolkien's prose just doesn't mesh with her. So, you MAY be disappointed. But I still think it's worth trying.

You're right, the Ring was trying to take Frodo one last time. As for why Frodo had to leave, he said it in his home before Sam showed up. Some hurts go too deep, some wounds cannot mend. Frodo was scarred, physically and mentally by carrying the Ring. PTSD of the worst level. He couldn't heal. But the Undying Lands of the elves could heal him. He went for the same reason as Bilbo. Being a ringbearer for so long, it left its mark. And many, many years later, after Rosie dies of old age, Sam will take a ship as well. The Ring left a mark on him as well. And yes, the Rohirrim and their horns, that speech and charge? Undoubtedly my favourite scene ever. The music for Rohan makes my heart pound every time. Sam's strength, "I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you!" makes me cry even now after seeing it a dozen times. Seeing it in the theatre was unbelievable. I was in my 20s, and first read the books in the early 90s. They will always be a favourite

Additional fun fact! Frodo will not entirely stay in the main undying land of Valinor, aka Aman, but in an island called Tol Eressëa where elves also reside. Tho he was permitted to cross the Sundering Seas and enter the Undying Lands, he won't be able to enter the mainland and that is because it is the land of the actual immortals, the Ainu and the First Borns, the Elven Kind. Numenorians, Aragorn's ancestors, thought that entering Aman will grant one an instant immortality, but that is not the case. It would be like a poison to their own souls and they will die faster, as per Sir JRR Tolkien's essay "Aman and Mortal Men".

​​@@PanDeSal.28I don't entirely agree with the Tol Eressea sentiment. I can see someone like Gimli as well as Legolas staying at Eressea as that's where Galadriel and the rest of the Noldor chose to stay. Tol Eressea is apart of Valinor. Granted a secluded island but still. I imagine both Bilbo and Frodo would want to explore whether that's visiting the garden of Yavanna and other things. Frodo at this point is still not that entirely old as I believe he's around his early 50s so I don't think he'd be too happy if he was forced to stay in Eressea. Could also be an instance where the Valar would meet with him and see the person who destroyed both the One Ring and Sauron and perhaps Gimli would be able to meet Aule. Also I see the whole thing with mortals in Valinor not as a poisoning but rather a perception of time in the perception of the elves, Valar and Ainur that makes it seem like they die quicker rather than as if the holy Ray's are killing mortals in Valinor faster.

Although the film portrays as Frodo only owning the ring for a year or two, in the book he had it for almost 20 years. That's plenty of time for it to spread its influence into Frodo's psyche. This also shows how heroic Frodo's accomplishments were when you think about someone like, for example Boromir, who only was in the vicinity of the ring for a few weeks and was almost consumed by it.

@@Wildcatt79 went to Tol Eressea next to Valinor(Valanor by the elves). Avalonnë (Avalon: Celtic.). Mortals who have less unity between body and soul actually go mad and turn into monsters if they stay in Valinor too long. They’d be at their height for such a long time and live prolonged life but then it goes down hill pretty quick as the spirit becomes more vigorous and doesn’t want to forsake the body yet the body definitely still cannot handle how hot the human spirit burns in general so they burn their own body away quite fast and or they become more feral in a sense. Or lack of better term “go mad.”

@@wadumin The bonus materials that came with the DVD explain that the lyrics to the song at the end (sung by Annie Lennox) were inspired by an aspiring young filmmaker who lived in New Zealand when they were filming. He was quite talented, but he had been diagnosed with stage four cancer. To honor his dying wish, he was given the chance to hang around the production. He touched many of the cast and crew, notably Fran Walsh (co-author of the screenplay with Peter Jackson). Sadly, the young man (maybe 19 years old if I remember right) died during the production. Walsh channeled their shared grief into the lyrics of the song which she co-wrote with Lennox.

Just a little explanation about Merry, Eowyn and the Nazgul. In the books Tolkien make clear how he sheer presence of the Nazgula was lethal for living beings because of the "black breath" a sort of malicious and deadly aura affecting all that came in their presence (that's an idea coming straight from the Fimir myth of anciant Ireland). The black breath caused the people exposed to fall in a slumber , the longer the exposure to the breath the longer and deeper the sleep they were thrown into - then into a coma and ultimately into death. So being both Eowyn and Merry the ones standing closest to the Nazgul, they were exposed to the black breath and immediatly after the fight was over they just fell down. It was just the intervention of the King that saved them ("the hands of the King are the hands of a healer", one of the many mystic/symbolic little add-ons Tolkien threw in troughout the entire book to give more depht and perspective to Aragorn's story arc)
@SoupDragonish
@SoupDragonish 7 ай бұрын
It's not just the black breath. The Witch King (head Nazgul) was a mighty sorcerer even before he became a wraith. His weapons had powerful spells and striking him would cause a kind of reverse damage. Eowyn was struck by his mace and stabbed him, Merry also just stabbed him. In the books, in a sub story the film left out, the blade Merry stabbed him with came from the northern sister kingdom of Gondor called Arnor. Arnor was destroyed by the very same Witch King of Angmar thousands of years ago. It too carried ancient spells made to fight the Witch King.

A couple points :) The power of the ring to corrupt is directly proportional to how close you are to the volcano. Once through that door it's so strong that no mortal could ever willingly throw it in and destroy it. The only way it was possible to destroy it was for the fight between Gollum and Frodo to cause it to accidentally drop. Gandalf knew a lot of this and had such a deep respect for Gollum that when he came with the Eagles he made sure there was a third to carry Gollum to safety. You can even see the third eagle double check the rock after the other two collect the hobbits, realise theres no Gollum and then fly off to follow the others.

You can think of the Ring like a flashlight that has no limit to how bright it can be. It gets brighter and brighter until they enter Mount Doom, and the light or aura from the ring is literally so bright that Frodo can't experience anything except for the ring itself. The ring becomes so powerful that everything else ceases to exist. Frodo had to leave Middle Earth because the ring wounded Frodos' soul. His soul was damaged beyond repair, so taking the ship (dying) was the only way to finally find peace.

At 40:56, the director has chosen here to omit a small but significant scene from Tolkien's book. Smeagol lies defeated on the ground, and Frodo is trudging up the road to the Sammath Naur, the Chambers of Fire, to destroy the Ring. Sam is left to kill Gollum. But Sam finally shows pity to Gollum, having carried the Ring himself for a while. He sends Gollum off with a kick in the rear, and turns to follow Frodo. But Gollum retreats only a short way, and when Sam turns his back, he follows warily behind, the light of madness in his eyes. Later, when all is over and Gollum and the Ring are destroyed, and Frodo and Sam lie on a crag awaiting death, Frodo says to Sam, "But do you remember Gandalf's words: 'Even Gollum may have something yet to do?' But for him, Sam, I could not have destroyed the Ring. The Quest would have been in vain, even at the bitter end. So let us forgive him! For the Quest is achieved, and now all is over. I am glad you are here with me. Here at the end of all things, Sam."

51:07 there’s an added kick in the book to the Aragorn - Arwen romance. When Aragorn was young and they had fallen in love, Elrond laid down the law that HIS elf daughter’s not going to marry a mortal man unless that man is the restored King of Gondor. And so for decades THAT was Aragorn’s prime motivation in everything he did. The concept of the reluctant exile was made up for the movie. Book-Aragorn was always hell-bent on defeating Sauron and becoming king so he could marry Arwen.

In case you want to know what happened to each of the main characters after the events in LOTR: Aragorn had children with Arwen. Eldarion, his eldest son, took the throne of Gondor and Aragorn laid down to voluntarily die -- a gift Numenoreans were given (Numenoreans had unusually long life compared to other humans). He had reestablished the Kingdom of Arnor and Eriador was on the way to being resettled. Within a year of Aragorn dying, Arwen died from a broken heart and was buried next to her husband. Sam went on to become Mayor of Michel Delving, and had a large family. When his wife Rose died, he sailed to the Undying Lands and was allowed passage because he was briefly a Ring bearer and showed immense courage & bravery at the time. So he was reunited with Frodo. Merry & Pippin had long and prosperous lives in the Shire. They became leaders of the Brandybucks and Tooks, respectively. At the age of 102, they both returned to Rohan and Gondor; they died in Gondor, and were laid to rest among the Kings of Gondor in Rath Dínen, the street of tombs, then moved to lie next to Aragorn. Legolas brought Elves from Mirkwood to Ithilien, to restore it after the war. Gimli brought folk to the Glittering Caves in Rohan and helped repair Helm's Deep and Minas Tirith. Eventually, Legolas sailed for the Undying Lands, and was allowed to take Gimli with him (Normally only Elves are lalowed in the Undying Lands alongside the Valar but an exception was made for Gimli who deep connection with Elves and especially Legolas & Galadriel) Faramir built a castle near Minas Tirith, married Éowyn of Rohan, and his family remained Stewards of Gondor when the King went north to visit Arnor. Éomer lived a good long life and helped King Elessar (Aragorn) to subdue many of the evil men who had backed Sauron in years past.

You guys did a great job of understanding this movie a lot of people are somewhat confused. Nice job. Yes, it was amazing to see the movie in the theater when it first came out . I was introduced to LOTR in Jr High by my english teacher and I totally fell in love. Have re read the books for years, so was really worried about what they were going to put on the screen. The movie gets started and no one in the theater so much as got up to get snacks, no one talking on their phones. Everyone reacted to this movie as if we were there. It was an experience and I now watch it at home as well as reading the books every year. The worst part was having to wait a year for the next movie to come out. Any way Jackson did an amazing job, of course there were changes some things added some not. Jackson got the essence and core value of the story. I do hope you get to see it in a theater, it's breathtaking on a large screen. Definitely read the books. The Hobbit movies are definitely different in style but still tells a good story and is really fun to watch.

I met my wife when we were teenagers, and a love of fantasy novels was something we had in common, but she had not read Lord of the Rings. So I gave her a nice boxed set for first Christmas while dating. Her mother read them too and loved them and I'm pretty sure that is a big part of why she wanted me to be the one to marry her daughter. I used that same boxed set to read LotR to each of our kids when they were old enough as their bedtime stories. Those books have fallen apart now and we have a new set, but we still keep the old one for sentimental reasons.

A big part of the rings power that Tolkien emphasized that there’s basically no one in middle earth that could ever throw the ring into the fire willingly. Its power is just too great by that point, and the greed that it causes is what led to it falling in. “Greed inevitably destroys itself”

A lovely reaction, couple. I am 50 years old and I had the pleasure of seeing this trilogy in theaters when it was released (and I also had to wait 1 year between each of the releases)... I remember that in the first movie, the cinema paused in the middle of the movie footage so that people could take a breath, smoke a cigarette, drink some water, go to the bathroom and re-enter the theater to continue with the movie. At that moment I realized that I had been with my mouth open for more than 1 hour straight. I have not had a similar experience with any other movie after this trilogy.

this was truly an amazing watch to share with you both. top tier. even my neighbors heard this one on blast. i just want to add, i had read LOTR 5 times through before the movies came out, and FOREVER, they were considered unfilmmable.. and so no one wanted to try.. it got bounced off to the bottom of the world during the dialup internet era, out of miramax's grapey hands (harvey weinstein), and amazingly, had nearly zero hollywood control, and a giant pile of cash to work with.. a few true believers in the states sheparded it along, but it was really the kiwis that collective lost their minds making this one shot independent film with BIG money, and this is what they did... the most epic filmmaking of all time.. literally an entire country marshalling its efforts to prove themselves on the world stage.. theres a book about the making of the 2 trilogies, with an unabridged audiobook.. the effort of LOTR is unmatched (it also outlines why the hobbit isnt quite this, very well.. i appreciate it existing at all, and i wont dog it.. some parts are truly great.. others.. eh, but the short of it is, a decade later hollywood had got control back and had demands...)

And I'll usually watch them once or twice on my own at some point during the year. Anyways, I'm glad you two enjoyed it so much. Regarding The Hobbit -- I'd suggest you watch those, too, even though they aren't even close to the level of these movies. The Hobbit isn't *bad* it just suffers in the shadows of this towering achievement. But you'll probably still enjoy it. And, of course, read the books.

Your question about the ring melting when Frodo finally gains hope and control again, and grabs Sam’s arm and then the ring melts you can look at it as Frodo freeing himself from its grasp or its will, but the ring is actually floating on the lava crust of what’s left of Gollums body, and when Frodo gains hope at the same time the piece of crust breaks apart and the ring false and melts, I’ve always looked at it as Gollums attempt to keep his precious safe, even after death

The scene in the tavern after the Hobbits have returned to the Shire is truly the embodiment of veterans returning home from the war. The whole time they'd been gone, they'd wanted nothing more than to return home, but now that they're home, it seems so small. After everything they've seen and experienced, the only ones who they can talk to are each other because no one else in the Shire will have any idea what they're talking about. I've always felt that Frodo's decision to go to the Grey Havens was because of several factors: 1) The physical scarring he endured from the stab wound as well as from having to carry the Ring for so long. 2) The mental trauma he suffered from what the Ring put him through. 3) Despite knowing what the Ring would do to him, from seeing what it did to Smeagol/Gollum, to Bilbo and Boromir, and that all of his friends and all of Middle-Earth were counting on him to destroy it, he still tried to take the Ring for himself and he could never truly forgive himself for that moment of weakness. I truly believe the only reason he didn't let go and fall into the lava at Mount Doom was because he knew that Sam would have jumped right in after him, and he couldn't do that to Sam. Hopefully in the Grey Havens he'll find some sense of peace.

I’ve always interpreted the fact that the Ring doesn’t immediately sink below the Lava as the fact that it would never be destroyed that quickly, just as it was never made that quickly either. It takes time for the Ring to heat up to the point where it would dissolve. You can even see the Black Speech writing appear on the Ring as it’s floating, indicating that the temperature is rising and the Ring is feeling the heat. Even though it made my heart rate rise when I first saw that scene, even then it personally always made sense to me that the Ring would take time to be dissolved. Nothing of power and consequence disappears immediately.

The rings of power all have a massive heat capacity, especially the one ring. It's hard to even get them hot which is why Gandalf wasn't worried about burning Frodos hand when he fished it out of the fireplace. It just took a long time to heat up enough to actually melt. The other thing is the fact it floats as a dense metal object when Gollum sinks. The ring can change it's mass and get heavier or lighter. It must have made itself lighter to stay on the surface for as long as possible.

The movies are not perfect but I will always enjoy them because of all the hard work people put into them.

" Setting out on that journey to middle earth is always so very dear to my heart, and it never fails to draw tears from my eyes.

If you remember back to the end of the first movie, the parallels you are looking for can be found there. Yes, the Ring kept trying against all hope to remain in power and existence in the world, and it was literally centimeters from the source of its magical origin in the fires of Mt. Doom, so it was arguably at its strongest, which is why it kept getting heavier and more powerful over the bearer, the closer that they got. So you can make a case that the Ring was being spiteful and malicious at its very end, and doing everything it could to ensure that hope died in Frodo, so that Frodo would die with the Ring. But the parallel scene which was established at the end of the Fellowship of the Ring was when Frodo split off from the Fellowship following the orc attack that killed Boromir, and Sam came out after him even though Sam could not swim. At that point, Frodo reaches down into the depths of a watery grave and rescues Samwise, with the same hand that Frodo would later lose his index finger on. In the end, Sam reaches down into a fiery grave, and rescues Frodo in turn, but Frodo has lost not only the Ring, but the proverbial "pound of flesh" that the devil takes as his due.

Now imagine this, many of us watched this trilogy over 20 years ago in the theaters. Absolutely crazy. There are no words to express what an experience that was!

59:15 that's a GREAT question! And it's so well done this film because it feels like as an audience you can interpret it that way, and I had not until now considered that question ever! I had at first before thought it's to hold the audience in suspense, but now that I think about it, yes! It was with Frodo in its last moments that whatever effect it had on him, stayed with him and kind of possessed him in a way, so when Sam wakes him out of his despair, and he reaches, it's not only to make the moment more suspenseful, but it's loosened its grip on his mind and spirit and soul! Keen observation! AND that notice that Frodo doesnt heroically push Gollum (no more Smeagol left), instead of heroically pushing Gollum, he's at that point in the thrall of the Ring that he instead stays on the cliff and fights over it until fate and inevitability has him and Gollum tripping into the lava! That's part od his personal darkness that he ultimately could not (not that he wasn't at all) but that he just couldn't overpower the influence of the Ring at its most desperate moment to continue existing! What a thrilling reaction to LotR I hadn't enjoyed in a long time! 🌋 📯🗡🔮☝️📜 📚 🐎 🦅🎆 ⚫️ 👁 🌅 🏔 🗡 🏹 🎯 🪓⛲️🗺🌨🌬❄️🔥 🕷🕸 🌊 🌲🌳🍞🐘🐲🐙 (oh and plus the viscosity of the almost cooling top surface layer of the lava 🌋 kinda lets it hold up....which is what I assumed, back then!) 😅

Great reaction!! Yeah, many reader polls in 2000 asked “What was the greatest work of fiction (book) of the 20th century?” And at the top of the list of many of them? “The Lord of the Rings.” This was almost 2 years before the movie, “Fellowship,” came out in Dec., 2001. The book trilogy is one of the best-selling books of all time - over 150 million copies sold. And believe it or not, they are even better than the movie version, IMHO. You feel like you are actually there in Middle Earth. Imagine the pressure on Director Peter Jackson to make a movie adaptation that would satisfy both book fans and movie fans. Fortunately, being a huge fan of the books, Jackson and his crew DID succeed in capturing the spirit and many of the elements of Tolkien’s 1,200 page masterpiece. I was SO happy when I saw what Jackson had created! Spoiler: re: Gollum. Remember in “Fellowship” in Moria when Frodo notices Gollum following them? Frodo says to Gandalf, “It’s a pity Bilbo didn’t kill him when he had the chance!” And Gandalf responds, “Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo’s hand. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be so eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part yet to play, for good or ill. Before this is over, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.” No kidding! If Bilbo had slain Gollum in the Misty Mountains in “The Hobbit” (and he certainly would have been justified because Gollum was getting ready to kill him - you’ll see this in “The Hobbit”), Gollum wouldn’t have been around at the end to play his part. And ALL would have been lost. Forever.

Mankind is elevated by the genius of Prof. Tolkien. Peter Jackson took hold of that genius and brought it to the screen for all the world to be amazed.
