I'm 22 years of age i've watched this movie twice or three times every year since i seen them in the theatre yet i still get teary eyed everytime they scream death the third time and the music kicks in the scene is so powerful :) and on top of that bernard hill improvised the part were he hits the spears with his sword.
Such a feel good moment ! :') I've seen the movie like 11 times and I still jump up and yell with fists in the air everytime I watch this scene!!!!! I hate this abused word, but this deserves it: This scene is EPIC!
If Peter Jackson can manage to top this scene in The Hobbit, he might as well be awarded the Oscar by Jesus along with an automatic ticket into Heaven.
Forth! Down fear of darkness! Arise! Arise, Riders of Théoden! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered! A sword day... a red day... and the sun rises! Ride now... Ride now... Ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Death! i love rohan :D <3
This comment isn`t about Rohirrim but when i saw those Gondorian soldiers i must say this: I HATE how they made those brave Gondorian soldiers some cowerds, hwo die by 1 orc.. in book, they were braver, one man could easily kill 10 orcs
@ScouserLegend I beg to differ, although it may not be as good, "Game of Thrones" is an epic fantasy medieval television series. Its not cheesy at ALL. Trust me, if you havent checked it out, go watch episode one and you'll be glad I told you..
@ScouserLegend check out this trailer (youtube . com /watch?v=z3qIXQCHf94) it's so much cooler when it's based on real people and actual battle strategies and fighting techniques.
i dont mean to ruin an epic moment cause i get the same chills you all do im sure, but why does she fear when she thinks he may have spotted her .... theres no turning back now. im sure he knows that.
I love this scene and it brings so many emotions to me. It's truly one of the best scenes in film history! And did I see Eomer steal someone's spear at 4:36?
this was a very important scene in the film but one lone horse lord fell off his horse in the shot and is being dragged in real life.. he wasnt hurt though.. and yes ur fav hourse is in this scene too BREGO. a scene composed of 53 riders and their doubles redubbed over and over to form an entire army.
@Bodicman because they were heavily, heavily outnumbered...no way they could hold the lower level any longer...the orcs never got further than the 3rd level of Minas Tirith tho :)
You know that's a charge when it can ride through pikes, and about the rest of the army behind it without stopping. Loved this scene. Made the wait for the turning of the tide worth it.
"And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True. With justice He judges and makes war...And the armies of heaven rode behind Him..." Revelation 19.
Anyone else noticed that the remixed version of "The Riders of Rohan" from The Two Towers which is used in this scene isn't on the Return of the King soundtrack? Personally, I think the music playing during the charge of the Rohirrim creates a strong enough emotion that it should have been included.
This would ahve been even better if Gondor hadnt seemed like a bunch of whimps. In the books they are equally as bad ass as the Rohirim and they charge out the front gates to help the Rohirim as the Riders charge the flanks. ITS A DOUBLE WHAMMY in the books and the Swan Knights of Dol Amroth ride just as well. But what can you do the directors felt people wouldnt understand that Gondor was in trouble if it didnt look like they were baddies.
i find it funny how when watching lotr as a young lad, i admit my eyes watered at scenes like this because of the sad aspect. but watching as an adult, my eyes still water at many of the scenes, its just for different reasons. this scene is just one of the very powerful ones in this movie, as is the part where sam carries frodo. that bit gets me every time :P
If i hear the words Theoden says and when the Rohirrim ride to the Orcs, i get a shiver and imagine that im one of those Rohirrim. Lord of the rings 4 ever!!!
You know what sucks? i never got to see this in the movie theatres when it was out T_T, biggest missed opportunity ever, will have on my conscience till the day i die now XD
Does anyone know what the song is called ? Thanks
