Saddest moments... The Witch King's sack of Fornost and destruction of Arthedain, I'd say - as well as Arvedui's ship-wreck in the Ice Bay of Forochel... and maybe the division of Arnor into Arthedain, Cardolan and Rhudaur in the first place!

I always found the death of Mim's son at the hands of Turin's goons to be very sad (and bitter). Poor little Mim went through quite a lot when you think about it.

The saddest moment in ROTK is when Frodo tells Sam to go home. I really felt so angry on Frodo and sad for Sam, he did everything he could, but at that moment it wasn't enough....

Don't know if you're joking or if you have only seen that in the movies... because it isn't in the books! So... that would make it, 'One of the saddest moments in Jackson' instead of Tokien.  Now scoot on over to the welcome center... that's the 'Official Welcome Thread' in the General Messages forum - and introduce yourself.

I think that the saddest moments are:
When Melkor destroyed the Trees When Sam comes back from the Gray Havens. When Feanor burned the ships. When Beren dies. |

I think the saddest moments in LOTR are:
-the death of Boromir -the death of Theoden -the death of Denethor -Frodo's sailing at the Grey Havens -Frodo's song about Gandalf in Lothlorien |

~ The death of Beleg
~ To a lesser degree, the burning of the swan boats (it's the destruction of magnificent craft, as well as having poor Maedhros just standing there watching the betrayal of his relatives and friends).
