one of the most uplifting scenes in the entire trilogy. Ian McKellen is awesome.

@sixpointneuf In Harry Potter you can actually, although to a much more limited extent, but both Star Wars and Harry Potter have beautiful messages about loss, friendship and purpose.

Although Tolkien has done a greater job than I have seen in any other book.

@sixpointneuf Actually, you can. J.K Rowling suffered a lot in her earlier life and she saw a lot of horrible things(listen to her Harvard speech, and you'll know what I'm talking). She incorporated a lot of messages that are very simple but actually say very much and mean a lot. What I'm trying to say is where Tolkien saw many horrors of war(wars in his case), JK saw many horrors of every day life and they both tried to pass on their knowledge about life in their own unique style trough novels.

The thing about LOTR and the Middle Earth books is that they bring wisdom from a man who lived through so much and incorporated it into his work. Not just war, but love as well. You can't get this from star wars or harry potter.
