What parts made you tear up?

[azalea]

I teared up at Theoden's death, when Sam said "I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you," (I LOVE that whole scene) and at the Grey Havens, as well as a couple of other parts that I can't remember right now.

[Sylvee Estel]

gosh when did I cry... well a lot! I cried when Frodo told Sam to go home.. and at Theoden's death... and all through out the ending scenes... especially the one where Frodo's in the bed and they all come in and hug him... and of course the Grey Havens.. and lots of other times too...

[LuthienTinuviel]

i think the words "aproximately the entire second half of the movie" sum it up ok.

[Sister Golden Hair]

Well, I thought it was sad to see Elrond all teary eyed. I hate to see a grown Elf cry. I also found it very sad when Denether rejected Faramir like he did.

[Starr Polish]

Lots...I'm a big baby.

-Pippin and Merry's parting

-Pippin's song...oh..my...not expecting that. I was 92% spoiler free.

Arg...more, but tired and have homework. Most definitely heart wrenched and sobbing at Mt. Doom, and Gray Havens scene. Nearly broke down and practically sobbed OUT LOUD when Frodo kissed Sam's forehead. ::dies::

[Khamûl]

The charge of the Rohirrim.
Sam on Mt. Doom.
The Grey Havens.

I didn't actually cry, mind you, I just got a little misty-eyed.

[Artanis]

The hopeless, mad attempt to regain Osgiliath. The flowers that were thrown to the men who rode to a certain death. Pip's song.

The charge of the Rohirrim. That was the best part of the entire movie.

Frodo crawling up Mount Doom. Sam carrying him.

King Aragorn bowing to the Hobbits.

[zinnite]

Pippin's song, even though Denethor's loud eating was a distraction.

"Don't go where I can't follow." It was too rushed, but still nice to hear.

The Rohirrim didn't make me tear up, but it literally sent shivers up my spine.

[Elvengirl]

I didn't actually cry, but I was a little choked up for many scenes. I was practically grinning from ear to ear teh whole second half of the movie.
The bowing to the hobbits
The parting at the havens
Sam carrying Frodo up the mountain
Legolas and Gimli's friendship scene
The eagles coming
The meeting of the fellowship again, many people in the audience were laughing at this, but I found it to be very touching.
and many more

[Varda Oiolosseo]

I never cry at movies, but i was crying so much in this one!!

- Merry and Pippn's parting,
- Pippin's song
- When Denethor rejected Faramir
- The bowing to the Hobbits
- The Grey Havens - that parting with all the hobbits and gandalf i just cried my eyes out.
- Sam Carrying Frodo up the mountain.
- Theoden's death
- and when Arwen saw Aragorn and their son together.

and right at the end when it had finished everyone clapped and cheered i was just so overwhelmed and started crying again!

[Telcontar]

I didn't cry, but I got choked up on quite a few parts. When I cried (actually, eyes welled up) was during the departure scene at the Grey Havens. I almost wanted to when Denethor said he wished that Faramir had been in Boromir's place and you could see the HURT in Faramir's eyes (his eyes welled up with tears).
They were pretty powerful scenes, along with a ton more!

[hectorberlioz]

I never cried, i just got a little bleary-eyed

1. piipin singing.
2.denethor bieng such a jerk to faramir. poor faramir
3.sam's wedding was so beautiful i just had a couple of little dribblets coming down here and there...

[Tuor of Gondolin]

When I saw how PJ butchered Denethor's (and some of Gandalf's) parts.

Well, okay, maybe also Bilbo and Frodo at the Grey Havens, and Sam carrying Frodo, and Agent Smith with Liv at the (coronation? wedding? whatever).

[Elvengirl]

Agent Smith? where?

Sam's wedding and his return to the Shire to pick up his daughter. Did you know that was actually Sean's daughter?

Actually, ther was a guy dressed up like Agent Smith at the theater I went to. Stuck out in the crowd of people dressed like LotR characters.

I did know about Sean's daughter. Alexandra Astin? I think something like that....Very cute.

Parts I teared up (or almost teared up) at

Sam on Mt. Doom
When he was talking about Rosie..I couldn't help it... So sad!! And I was so happy when he saw her again.

Pip's song
Billy Boyd has a beautiful voice. And the hopelessness of the situation and denethor being...such..a jerk!

Merry and Pippin's parting

Denethor being a jerk to his son When Faramir teared up, I teared up. He was my favorite character in the book and I am so happy he is portrayed so well in the movie...not enough screen time!!!!!

Grey Havens I actually wasn't as moved as I thought I'd be. I don't know why...but it was pretty good.

The Rohirrim charge and Theoden's speech I absolutely loved this part. Everything about it was beautiful. Even though Theoden was a bit annoying in TTT, he has become one of my favorite characters.

Theoden's deathVery good scene. Worked. (unlike some others *ahem ahem*. let's not complain here..)

[Aewionen]

I was so close to crying when Denethor rejected Faramir! (Actually, I think I did... ) Other parts that were real tear jerkers were Pippin's song, when Faramir and his men were leaving to defend the river city and people were throwing flowers for them, Pippin and Merry's parting, and when Frodo left for the Grey Havens.

(A guy in the theater dress up like an elf. Cloak and all! His hair was long and braided too! )

[Laurelyn]

Well . . . when did I cry?
~With frustration at Eowyn's scene
~The Denethor-Faramir scene and the following despairing wander off to battle
~Some scene with beautiful scenery
~A large amount of the beginning of the movie
~A large amount of the rest of the movie

I was surprised, actually, at how many of the scenes had that effect on me. Some of them were lousy and I cried for what was butchered, too, but mostly I was crying because the actors were doing a marvelous job showing emotion. Most of the Grey Havens scene left me dry-eyed, though. Sam's sorrow was good, but I was too busy obsessing over how I didn't like the scenery and how it seemed for a moment like Frodo wasn't going to sail away to really notice the rest of it . . .

Hey . . . I dressed up like an elf . . .

[Thuringwethil]

several parts.

Pippin's song, The charge of the Rohirrim, When Aragorn made the charge to distract the eye, and said, "For Frodo" and then Meryr and Pippin charged out. That was amazing. Grey Havens, and when the movie was over, because I loved it so much.

[Gulio, Strength of Many]

They guy who dressed up as an Elf is my hero. How I wished the theater would let me bring my Gimli mug (The top of his helment is the lid! So cute!) in. But noooooooooo! *pouts*

I don't think I actually cried in the movie, though my heart did stop when Frodo and Gollum fell. I teared up at Merry and Pippin's parting, when Frodo told Sam to go home, when Denethor was so cruel to Faramir, Pippin's song, and when Theoden died. I would have gotten sad at the Grey Havens, but I was upset becuase I thought Peter Jackson cut the whole Frodo leaving thing. I'm also a bit upset at the cutting of the Scouring of the Shire, and the Black Breath thing. I know the movie was already forever long, but still....

There were zillions of people dressed up where I went. One was Gandalf the White. We had, like, three hobbits. (that I noticed) One Aragorn. An Eowyn. Countless elves... (AND an Agent Smith) I don't think they were in the same room that I was in, though, when I watched the movie. Too bad 'cause all we had were a bunch of (probably) non-fans who didn't know anything about the books and left before it even ended! grrrrrr....
