Moments you cried during LOTR trilogy

>MAY IT BE

>I'm not trying to rob you, I'm trying to help you
>so do all who live through such times, all you can do is decide what to do with the time that is given to you
>boromirs death and final conversation with aragorn
>don't you lose him samwise gamgee, I don't mean to
>anytime the shire theme plays
>no parent should have to bury their child
>many of these trees were my friends
>when gandalf arrives with the riders at helms deep
>go home Sam
>for frodo...
>BUT I CAN CARRY YOU!
>the entire last 15 minutes

Why the fuck do these movies make me weep, i never cry over anything
Makes it incredibly hard to watch with others

>It would have been her... it would have been her...
Fuck I felt that

for me
>are you over 25?

>faramir watches gollum talk to himself
really?

What about Samwise the brave? I want to hear more about him. Frodo wouldn't have made it far without him.

Gandalf saving Helm's Deep is the only thing that comes to mind

The only one I can think of that hasn't been said already is
>Let him go, you filth.

>my brother, my captain, my king
>haldir showing up to helm's deep
>ride out with me
>last march of the ents
>rohirrim showing up/theoden speech/charge
>for frodo
>anytime the shire theme plays
also this

when elrond got cucked

Another worth mentioning is the fall of Gandalf, the music overlay and the scenery of running out into the snow while the cast mourns hits pretty hard.

Sorry fren, your family sounds like a bunch of shitlords.
>These last few pages are for you Samwise.

>why do they make me weep
Because despite the fantasy it's handled in a higher, more mature way and taps into very real relationships. The pain of Faramir being the lesser-son and seeing his brother die is very real. The struggle of a fight to the end to virtually assured doom is quite real. Most importantly the perfectly-sold friendship between Frodo and Sam is very real; it captures that unique camaraderie that forms between friends going through such terrible situations, like you'd see in a war or something of the like. That's why the Fellowship is so important.

Unfortunately for us the rise of shitass sexual exploration films means half the people watching it today will be retarded shippers that think Frodo and Sam are faggots, rather than achieving a unique camaraderie of fellowship that few can see that helps overcome these kinds of Hellish, insurmountable odds.
>I made a promise, a promise. "Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee." And I don't mean to... I don't mean to.

OP here i just turned 29.

Yes really. The ring really fucked him up its sad to watch. Tolkien is a genius for creating such a character, despite “muh no grey characters” according to Gurrm

For me?
it's "for you"

>My friends... You bow to no one.

It really is impressive that in a setting that's set to such clear lines of good vs evil he can still write magnificent grey characters. Though it's clear that almost all characters in the book are susceptible to it. It's a good point that there are clear good and evil sides but even the good characters have some evil within them that can degrade them entirely. So the characters are grey just handled differently as within a spectrum.

So much this. Like a true mythology it captures real human relationships.

I almost got choked up when Bilbo when to confront Smaug, ready to die.
>NO! STOP! YOU CANNOT GO TO LAKE TOWN!

Even the worst characters have redeeming qualities if you know where to look for them. To me its really sad that saruman should have been led astray, as treebeard says “a wizard should know better.” And sauron himself.. its never stated specifically within the works but you get a sense that he and even melkor will be redeemed. Middle earth, afterall is really just illuvatar showing melkor “this is what your decisions look like.” I imagine that after the end of the world there is an even mightier song of the ainur wherein melkor contributes in harmony as the greatest of the ainur. Its the song of the return of the prodigal son, the song of redemption

The age of LOTR is over. This is a post COVID world. No one will cling to the mythologies of the past anymore.

Even discussing it now reveals just how weakened, how frightened, the masses have become. Escaping into infantilism.

You won't have a job. You won't have your parents. You will never get a girlfriend.

And then.. you will die. And NOTHING more will come. There is no sailing to the West.

Tolkien is dead. And someday soon, so will you be.

Also guess we're turning the thread into comfy LotR quote posting.

>I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
>So do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world besides the forces of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the ring, in which case you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought!

Jesus. Kikes are sick fucks.

>but i can carry you

>I cant cry

Mythologies never die, they only get renewed. A post covid world is prime for that.

They do indeed. Saruman himself was good, if egotistical, and believed he could control power and defeat Sauron but was instead corrupted. There are some limits, as it falls within Tolkien's own religious views. Sauron and Morgoth are far beyond redemption, but most of those like Saruman will be redeemed. It's said, for exampled, that in the final battle the Numenoreans and their Golden Army will rise again to fight alongside the Illuvatar with the forces of good, despite breaking the one rule they gave the men and becoming a cult to Morgoth. Sadly we won't know for sure, but it leaves us with much to talk about and ponder for our own sake, and that I think is something Tolkien wanted too.

>run shadowfax. show us the meaning of haste
burst into tears stand up cheer and clap

Fuck you

stop being stupid user
is during hard times that mythologies get stronger

when the Gandalf and the Rohirrim charge into the Uruk hai at Helm's Deep.

The Uruks defeated the elves and men in battle and even respond to a cavalry charge appropriately with pikes, and yet the horses just magically get through.

I cry for the uruks every time

Literally every time.

Gandalf's death
Galadriel giving Frodo a hand
The whole ending Gollum sequence with the music

Its hard rimes that new myths are born. Until then we will have hacks putting "spins" on old shit for cash and accolades. We already see it happening with that Eggers hack, and you just know someones gonna toss around the ol LOTR corpse for a good time.

the beacon scene is amazing solely because of the music
for some reason it makes me tear up even after all these years
also all the battle scenes in rotk, because they're just CGI shitfests for the most part.

Felt bad when Gimli was all sad n shit in Moria, y'know?

Fireworks, Gandalf! Fireworks!

when the third eagle was for Smeagol

>there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for

Always reminds me to keep voting Republican to keep the muslims out above all else, truly they are the orcs of society. Everything they touch turns to shit.

Do you think we should get rid of teaching Arabic Numerals in school?

They weren't always like that, Islam, particularly fundamentalist Islam corrupts.

>t. Goblin

>muslims are the enemy
lmao

Theoden's death, when he says "I go to my fathers, in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed."

Is every death in LotR marked with an incredible line?
>I would have followed you my brother, my captain, my king.
>Be in peace son of Gondor.

Frodo departing middle earth. I watched this movie with my dad before passed away from cancer a week later so it holds a powerful and poignant place in my heart.
