Rohan is just awesome. Gondor is pretty boss, but Rohan is just epic. Not only have they broken TWO separate lines (one here, one at Helm's Deep), they faced off against the Haradrim (Southrons) and their Mûmakil (Oliphaunts). Pulled Gondor's ass out of the fire, they did.
Don't worry, I have read the Silmarillion, the Book of Lost Tales and the Narn i Hin Hurin ;-) And I do know who the two different Glorfindels were.
But I didn't mean Tolkien would have liked the films, I meant he would have liked this particular scene - he loved the old Saxons, and in his mind, the Saxons would have won the battle of Hastings had they had cavalry - and the Rohirrim were born. Hence, I think he'd have loved this epic scene.
Eomer. Take your Èored down the left flank. Gamling, follow the King's banner down the center. Grimbold, take your company right, after you pass the wall. Forth, and fear no darkness! Arise! Arise, Riders of Theoden! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered! A sword day... a red day... ere the sun rises! Ride now!... Ride now!... Ride! Ride to ruin and the world's ending! Death! Death! DEATH! Forth Eorlingas!
True Story - The riders they used for the movie were females with beards glued on because they couldn't find any male riders who were good enough to ride the horses.
@Speed5ter69 You do realize that this trilogy is based off of the books and Theoden did die? You cant just pull sad parts out of the original story because you do not like them.
I just watched this film... while extremely stoned... by far the most epic experience I've ever had watching a movie... lit another joint just now... downloading the soundtrack...
SPEARS SHALL BE SHAKEN SHIELDS SHALL BE SPLINTERED A SWORD DAY, A RED DAY WHEN THE SUN RISES RIDE NOW RIDE NOW RIDE THE RUIN YEAAAAA YEEAAAAAA YEEAAAAA YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BBBBBBBBUUUUUUMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIINNNN-(horns)
I can recite almost all of Theoden's speech when listening to the sountrack on itunes. I love everything about this scene, this movie, and this trilogy.
@carmandarmans if you're talking about the song that plays as they begin the charge, it is called "Return to Edoras" from the complete soundtrack of Return of the King.
Great Scene...Although, if realistically speaking, I doubt a Cavalry Charge into a massive Amount of Troops would just go on like a stroll on a Meadow. It should lose some Momentum.
@kazsteakagademiste What is epic about this movie is that their position is hopeless, they ride for ruin, death, and the world's ending. What is epic is that even though there are many horsemen, there is ten times more orcs. The moment there is fear in evil eyes, that is the moment of psychological win. Sauron's greatest weapon is terror, and courage is men's only defence. People don't quite catch that, and all new "epic" stuff is about explosions and always winning.
Cred to that speech. I thing Peter Jackson got all fucking LOTR fans with him to die their, all of us who watch this shit on the cinema were all like "DEATH"! and were just ready to run down that hill and die with them. EPIC!!!
@Kanedx did they mention 200.000 orcs at any point in the movie? Because it doesn't sound right. 16.k men can't possibly win against 200k orcs. Even the undead army would damage all their ghostly weapons before the last orc slain :|...
Whats going through all of the orcs minds
3:36 "I shot that arrow like a fucking champ!"
