That one made me cry...

Me too, or at least tears. Love the integration of Tolkien's love of story-telling.

I think my favourite quote from the movies is when Aragorn says to Eowyn (ROTK):
"I am but a shadow of a dream...
I cannot give you what you seek."
Or something like that, can't remember the exact wording. But I know that it is such a beautiful moment as you can see how wise he is and how much he cares for her, but at the same time he knows that she is not in love with him, she is in love with what he represents...

The scene where the Uruk-hai want to eat Merry and Peppin and then the leader (forgot his name) slices someone's head off and says:

"LOOKS LIKE MEAT'S BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS!"

I ALWAYS laugh at that scene, even if I don't want to. :')

What's your favourite line from the movie. Where is it and who said it. Why do you like it.

I have two. My first is Aragorn's line(s) at the Black Gate.
'Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers, I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come, when the courage of men fails. When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields as the age of men comes crashing down. But it is not this day this day we fight. By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!'

And my second is Sam's at Osgiliath afte he saved Frodo, but that's even longer than the Aragorn one so I won't write it down.

What are yours?

that one from aragorn is so cool, i always say it when i look the films
