Boba Rhett Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 Did any scenes really pull on your water work strings? I just had the pelasure of seeing it for the fourth time yesterday and I find some scenes totally catch me off gaurd every time and I find myself having to hold back tears. The four scenes that stick out: 1. When the village woman is putting her son and daughter on the horse and telling them she'll find them. It was mushy so I was kind of expecting it. 2. When Grima Wormtongue is talking to Saruman and they go out on the balcony and see the thousands upon thousands of orcs and the camera goes back to Grima who has a tear rolling down his cheek. This one cought me off gaurd. The feeling I got from it was that Grima then finally saw where the lines in the sand had been drawn and where exactly he was standing. I'm not saying that he felt bad about his choice though. 3. When Aragorn, Theoden and some assorted men rode out on horses. Wow. 4. When the camera pans out showing the Riders of Rohan spewing into the canyon as the sun breaks the crest of the hill. Wow again. I went with my brother in law and he was blown away. He said it was the best movie he had ever seen.
Admiral Odin Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 Besides the ones you mentioned, I would have to say when they were reading for the siege. You could see the fear in their faces. I like that.
Rogue Nine Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 When they killed Haldir. I'm still fuming over that.
Tie Guy Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 Honestly....no. It looked pretty fantastic, but i didn't find it very emotional it all.
swphreak Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 Well, i didn't cry or have to hold back tears, but I got this weird tingling feeling. The ones you listed The battle at Isengard with all the Ents kickin *butts* Whenever I see the army of Urik Hai
Zygomaticus Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 heh, it didn't jerk a tear but it made me feel sad when Haldir died, and Rhett's number 3 and 4 really made me feel all good inside
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 I have never cried for about 4 yrs, but here are strong "emotional" points: 1) The mum and kids scene. 2) Whenever we see the terror the Uruk-Hai inflict on Middle-Earth. I always think: "Naaarggghh! Those bastards!" 3) When the trees kick ass. 4) When Gandalf, Theoden and 2000 Riders Of Rohan arrive to kick ass. 5) Sam talking to Frodo while the trees and Gandalf kick ass.
Darth Homer Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 I thought some scenes were sad, but nothing was a "tear jerker" for me...loved the battle of the Ents, Helmsdeep was awesome, pretty much the whole thing was just great! But no tears from me...
pbguy1211 Posted January 16, 2003 Posted January 16, 2003 you saying you cried during this movie? are you a woman?
pbguy1211 Posted January 17, 2003 Posted January 17, 2003 i'm pretty sure that'd get overturned in a hurry. banning someone for picking on you? lighten up...
Boba Rhett Posted January 17, 2003 Author Posted January 17, 2003 I was just joking. Perhaps you're the one needing to lighten up. And yes, picking on a fellow forum member is against the rules.
Sherack Nhar Posted January 17, 2003 Posted January 17, 2003 I must sy that the woman and her children was pretty moving to me. There's nothing wrong with shedding a tear or two while watching a movie, pbguy1211.
pbguy1211 Posted January 17, 2003 Posted January 17, 2003 well the woman thing was a joke, albeit an outrageous over the top sexist one... but it was still a joke. i just personally didn't find much/anything worth crying about in the movie
