Best Line

[PrinceImrahil]

What was your favorite line in FOTR?

Personally, my fav was Boromir's death speech. It was very touching.

Second are all of Merry and Pippen's, just cause they are funny.

Third would have to be Gandalf's little talk in Moria with Frodo about making the best of the time we are given.:thumbs:

[Illuvatar]

I think Gandalf had some of the best. Besides the fate speech to Frodo, which I agree was very well done, I also like the one liners like:

"Fool of a Took!! Throw yourself in ...." and I don't quite remember the rest at the moment.:embarras: But I thought that was hilarious!!

Oh, and Sam's " Oh, I wouldn't be dropping any eves sir!!" as well!!:cool:

[Catz]

my fave has to be that line of Gandalfs when hes just lit up the great hall in Moria......cant remember how it goes exactly...*hangs her head in shame*....but it gives me shivers.....very cool
:catz:

[Beregond]

"Let's go hunt some orc"

Boo-yah.

[Sindarin]

"One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them."

The way Ian McKellen spoke it as Gandalf gave me chills the first time I heard him.

[A! Elbereth]

My favorite line/s are The last sentence in the whole movie... but thats not my first choice (Sam... I'm glad your with me)
I only choose that becuase Frodo says it... but I have to say my favorite line are:

1.) Aragorn: "Are you frightened?"
"yes"
"Not nearly enough, i know what hunts you"
(I just like that one for some reason)

2.)"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" <--that one gives me chills

3.) "Even the smallest person can change the course of the future"

#3 is my favorite as you can see....

[Bonos-Girl]

I like the whol 'one ring....' bit but it isn't my favourite, my favourit is when gandalf asks sam if he heard anything (right near the beginning) and sam says somethng like 'oh nothing very important just a great deal about a ring, something about a dark lord and a bit about the end of the world' (can't remember it very well.)

my other favourite line is pippins 'you'll need someone with brains on this mission.....quest....thing!'

[Catz]

whoops.....almost forgot my other all time fave......:grin:
Striders line...."they are the Nazgul.....Ringwraiths...."
i just love the way he says the word Nazgul.....so :cool:
:catz:

[Bonos-Girl]

yeah, i know, i ove striders voice anyway (whats with the changing accents?!) but that bit is really cool.

[Catz]

well....hes multi lingual as well as having lived in several different countries, so i suppose that would affect your accent somewhat....did love Galadriels mirror speech too, tho i know it wasnt everyones cup of tea:)
:catz:

[Ilmarë]

There are so many to chose from...but i really like the line Gimli has when Aragorn (?) goes to throw him over the chasm in Moria and he says "Nobody tosses a Dwarf!!"....very funny rofl


:elfqueen:

[Catz]

Ilm.......im disappointed in you.....not mentioning the blonde ones best line;) lol lol
"it is not the eastern shore that worries me......something draws near....i can feel it...." :cool:
:catz:

[Ilmarë]

Sorry Catz...just didn't want to be too....predictable;)

[Catz]

thats not predictable hon.......thats showing good taste;) lol lol
:catz:

[lotrboarder]

1.My favorite part is the "What about second breakfast."
2.The fight scene in the Mines of Moria.
3.When Merry and Pippen lit the firework rocket.

[Bonos-Girl]

yeh i love the 2nd breakfast thing, most lines that include pippin + merry are funny, like the mission...quest....thing.

[Pil]

SECOND BREAKFAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! roflmao lol lol lol

I CANNOT say SECOND BREAKFAST unless it is in a scottish accent! Help!!!!! :(

[Bonos-Girl]

i think you're beyond help pil....

[Elentari]

Let's see.....

Sam: "Let 'im go or I'll have you Longshanks!"

Galadriel: "I pass the test. I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel."

Haldir: "The Dwarf breathes so loudly we could have shot him in the dark."

(I also agree with many that have already been quoted here!)

[Bonos-Girl]

yeh...i love the haldir line.....it's sooo amusing.....

~*~ Haha i agree!~*~ :thumbs:

[Pil]

That will forever be....a CLASSIC! lol roflmao

[Nessa]

I love the verbal exchange between Frodo and Boromir at Amon Hen, and a few minutes later between Frodo and Aragorn. Both scenes are well very well acted. "Would you destroy it?" There's something about how that line is delivered...

[Pil]

Yup, the bit with Frodo and Arargorn is a very powerful bit. We are able to see the sort of test that the ring puts people through and how Aragorn passes with flying colours! lol

[Bonos-Girl]

but he would.....he's like perfect + everything...

[Pil]

Another line i like is

"You've been officially labelled a disturber of the peace!" You know, Frodo talking to gandalf in the cart? It really shows the innocence of hobbits. They don't really understand much about the outside world and gandalf, so they just give him a bit of a cold shoulde and go back to their lives. That's why hobbits are so strong and not corrupted - their nature (although some obviously are different) is to stay put and not do anything outrageous. :p

[Bonos-Girl]

just like my mum....

[Pil]

lol :thumbs: bonos-girl!!!

Does anyone like it when sam says "Get off him!" when pippin or merry (i can't remember which) is lying on top of frodo when they bump into eachother in the field in FOTR? Its so sweet, he drags...i think its pippin...off frodo and brings him to his feet. Good ol' loyal sam! :thumbs: :p

[A! Elbereth]

Man, its like Frodo has his own little slave! *pushes over sam and takes over frodo's backrub* Yeah I like any part with Sam helping out Frodo.... ok ok! I like all parts with Frodo, but that doesnt mean i dont pay close attention to everyone else!

[Aragorn Isildur]

My all time fave is Boromirs death speech,

"I would have followed you, my brother, my captain, my king" or something like that.

"This is no mere Ranger, he is Aragorn, son of Arathorn..." - Legolas

"This is Isildurs heir?" - Boromir

The list goes on and on....Aragorn and Frodo scene etc etc

Aragorn:king:

[Pil]

Boromir's death speech made me cry...lots... mecry

The words show how he ended up trusting, respecting and loving (not in a dodgy way) Aragorn as all the obove things...aw.... :cuddles:

[A! Elbereth]

The wierd thing was, I didnt get a drop of sadness until the 5th time I saw it - :huh: who knows why

[Bonos-Girl]

i cried 3 times every time i saw it......don't ask me why

[Kwijibo]

These were my faves:
'So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we can decide, is what to do with the time that is given to us' - Gandalf

'What about breakfast?' 'You've already had it,' 'We've had ONE, yes. What about second breakfast?' 'I don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pip,' 'What about elevenses? Lucheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper? He knows about those, doesn't he?' 'I wouldn't count on it,' - Pippin, Aragorn and Merry

And Boromir's really sardonic, sarcastic, comtemptuous line in Moria,'They have a cave troll,'

[A! Elbereth]

The one spoken by Gandalf is wonderful! I think I might put it in mah signature.... Isnt it so dramatic when Frodo is standing staring into nothing with the ring in his hand, and then he has those falshbacks of Gandalf and he says that line again - pure genius. I dont know how it makes me feel, but its a very powerful line at a very powerful moment :loveyou:

[HobbitFriend]

lol i love that "second breakfast" part! I love Pippin! he's so funny! roflmao

[Nessa]

Originally posted by Kwijibo

The first time (or rather the second, but never mind) I hated that line! It has since grown on me quite a bit, very funny actually. It was said in such a well-doesn't-that-just-figure sort of way that sounds so out of place I just have to laugh.....

At first I really detested it though, it was right up there with "Let us hunt some orc".....hmmmm, maybe I should start a Worst Line thead....Nah, too pessimistic. lol

[Lady Arien]

I loved Elrond's line to Sam after the Coucil has decided on the fellowship "You shall at least go with him. It is hardly possible to separate you from him, even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not."

And, of course, Stider.....
"I can avoid being seen if I wish, but to disappear entirely, that is a gift."

[Kwijibo]

I liked the look on Elrond's face when Pippin and Merry came running out in the Council. He looked like 'Ok, where's the next Hobbit gonna pop up from?'

[Nessa]

lol

I thought the same thing, actually.... but honestly, what kind of buissiness is Rivendell running? The lack of security!

I liked Boromir's speech in Lothlorien, about the welcome he gets when he goes home to the white city.... its quite sad.

[HobbitFriend]

lol no, it wasn't lack of security, just that even the "security guards" were spying on the council! roflmao

[HobbitFriend]

Oh, while we're on the Council of Elrond - The second time i went to see FotR... It was after Elrond had said something to the council about how someone had to take the Ring to Mordor and i think it was this part:

Elrond: "It must be taken deep into Mordor and cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came. One of you must do this."

Then there was a big pause and the whole council was silent.. i was like, "Okay, lets not all raise our hands at once!" lol
It was pretty funny cuz I mean no one wants to go to Mordor and risk getting killed, and here's Elrond all serious and business-like going.. "alright! who wants to go! :stomper:"

[Nessa]

I thought that was rather funny the first time, lol Don't everyone jump up at once, guys!

Continuing the CoE thing, Elrond's terribly cheezy, "You shall be... the fellowship of the ring!" was saved by Pippin's "Where are we going, then?" I never loved the hobbit more dearly. :grin:

[HobbitFriend]

lol yah, it's like he's too serious. Again, after he said that, everyone's standing still, silent, except for the 2 Hobbits (Merry n Pip) - crossing their arms looking all professional.. then Pippin goes, all excited-like "Right! So where are we going?" lol (<- as you have just said Nessa)
oh those Hobbits just put all the humor in it! (the movie... & the book ;))

[Black Rider]

the hobbits are so cute! it would not be the same without merry and pippin

my weird story is that when i saw lotr for the 3rd time, i screamed when Bilbo pulls a "Gollum" on Frodo in Rivendell when he sees the ring. i was so distracted b/c my friends and i were sitting in the theatre laughing and making jokes at the movie (it was their 3rd tims as well) and i didnt even see it coming, and it freaked me out soo much. they still remind me...

[A! Elbereth]

The first time I saw LOTR I nearly jumped out of my seat screaming at the part where Bilbo does that. The next three times I nearly closed my eyes becuase I didnt know exactly when it would happen, but after the 4th time I got used to it

[TheRingBearer]

Yeah that bit was pretty freaky but then it was shown in everyday trailers on telly so it became a bit less jumpy.
I just got the DVD today and I must say it is mighty fine.

I like Sam's line when he is following Frodo into the water:

Frodo: I'm going to Mordor alone.
Sam: Of course you are. And I'm coming with you.

:grin:

[HobbitFriend]

Yes, i've always liked that part... Hobbits are so cute, Sam's so loyal.... it's just an overall great story. :)

[Undomiel]

I liked Gandalf's line:

"Many who live deserve death, and many who die deserve life-can you give it to them Frodo?" (something like that)

Also I agree about Boromir's death speech:

"I would have followed you..." That made me cry all over the place mecry every single time (and believe me thats alot of times)

I really want the DVD today but I'm holding out 4 the November one:(

[Catz]

ahhh a fan with restraint.....;) lol youre a rare bird Undomiel;) :grin:
Now me.....im getting both.....not that i can really afford it, but i just cant resist......im just way to nice to deny myself:rolleyes: lol lol
I love that bit in the cornfield...where Frodo says "cmon Sam"...theres just so much affection in that simple little line...its cute:grin:
:catz:

[Undomiel]

Well, i have to admit that the only reason I'm waiting is coz my bf sed he'd buy this one:)

Actually i watched it today-and TTT preview:grin:

one of my other fave lines having watched it again is:

"They are coming"

-that always makes me get goosebumps

[A! Elbereth]

The one line that shatters my heart to pieces, but is my favorite line is:

"I wish the ring never came to me. I wish none of this had happened" ~ Frodo

Makes me cry so hard. I'm tearing right now. I also like Gandalf's reply:

"So do all who live to see such times. All we have to do, is figure out what to do with the time that is given to us." ~ Gandalf

ARGH! mecry mecry mecry And the flashback of this makes me cry even harder because Frodo is crying and I just want to jump into the screen and give him a big huge hug and go all the way to Mordor with him so I can prevent his poor finger from getting bitten off!!!!!!!!!! mecry... that was a bit muchlol

[Nessa]

*hugs Elbereth* Think about the interviews on the DVD, you'll feel better. ;)

Originally posted by Undomiel

Oh yes! I like the whole segment... "We cannot get out..." rather creepy.... :o lol

[A! Elbereth]

ahhhhhh DVD interviews......lol

[Pippins-Girlo]

Yes, like many others, I Personally like all of Pippins speeches the best. Just b cuz he is cute and Funny and cute. lol I truly do love Pippin Took. Don't tell him but I sort of like Legolas and Frodo. SHH!!!!!! :) lol :)

[Pippins-Girlo]

BUT.......... NO MATTER WHAT!! I will always like Pippin the best! no offense to Frodo, Sam, Merry, Legolas, Aragorn, Boromir, Gimli, and Gandalf. SORRY!!! I LOVE PIPPIN I CAN'T HELP IT!!!! My biggest wishes are to have a lifesize Pippin Doll that is 3 1/2 feet tall, and to go to Wild Waves with Billy Boyd dressed up in his Pippin outfit and go down a water slide and wait for me at the bottum and I'll jump into his arms and... what was that? oh, yes, got a little carried away with my fictional dreams. But it could happen!!!! That would be the day!!! :) lol lol lol lol :)

[shinjo]

My favorite(s):

"I would have followed you, my brother. My captain. My king." - Boromir

"So do all, who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide." - Gandalf

"You will unite, or you will fail." - Elrond

[TheRingBearer]

Oh yeah and on the Two Towers preview on the DVD I noticed a line by King Theoden that sounded so cool. I think it went like this:
(In the Golden Hall)
Theoden:How many?
Aragorn: Ten thousand strong.
(walking away) Theoden: LET THEM COME!!

:battle: :battle: :battle:

[shinjo]

Oh my god, I love that part. Theoden looks awesome in TTT, fearless and everything he should be.

Another one of my favorite lines:
"I do not fear them." - Arwen
"If you want him, come and claim him!" - Arwen

[TheRingBearer]

Yeah they gave Arwen some kick *** lines in the Fellowship don't you think.

"You will face the same evil and YOU will defeat it!!"

[Nessa]

Are you serious? :o ;)

Some of them weren't bad...... a few of them on the bridge were decent.... but you're forgetting...

"Whats this? A Ranger caught off his guard?" So entirely not cute in the slightest. Sorry guys, no offense meant. ;)

Galadriel had a few good lines or two...... I like her temptation of the Ring speech, the words themselves are good, its the cgi that blew it.

[A! Elbereth]

hmmm... this is a little off subject... but I look forward to hearing the lines in TTT, like:

"The Ring will not save Gondor. It only has the power to destory."~Frodo

Sounds so promising.... it looks very nice

[HobbitFriend]

mm... and to think TTT doesn't come out for another 131 days - too long!

[TheRingBearer]

Nooooo. I can't wait that long :grin:

[HobbitFriend]

i also like:
"Frodo! Merry, look! It's Frodo Baggins!" ~Pippin
(in that accent :loveyou: )

[Pil]

I like when Sam yanks pippin off frodo when they bump into eachother in the field...so much love and caring...and hobbits rolling about in the dirt... :naughty: lol:blush:

[HobbitFriend]

lol i love that part! (along with almost every other part of the movie! roflmao)

[Goldilocks]

Favourite lines....hmmmmm. Well, firstly I love Boromir's speach on Caradhras.

"What a strange fate that we must suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing."

Very cool! And secondly, one of the wisest statements in literature, that I think should be quoted time and time again:

"Pity? It was Pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many the live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends."

Profound. A lot to learn from that I think.

[Pippins-Girlo]

I love that part with Pippin, Merry, Sam, and Frodo rolling around in the crop field. lol :cuddles: :loveyou:

[A! Elbereth]

oh yes.... its a part that makes you smile :)

[Bonos-Girl]

sams's sooo protective of frodo...he yanks the others off him and brushes him down and everything......awwwww....

[Bonos-Girl]

i also love the part when merry says "that black rider was looking for something...or someone...frodo????" he says it in such a cool threatening voice....
tom-bombadil: i like th ebit when gandalf says to the balrog "you shall not pass"

[Pil]

I like the bit when Elrond say they are "Scattered...divided...leaderless". But that's just me... :blush:

[TheRingBearer]

No that is pretty cool

"You will unite or you will fail"

[A! Elbereth]

I also love that line m'self. The suspicion is so great...hmmm

[shinjo]

Ah, I love that line also :p

[Pil]

HE IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SEXY!!!!!!! :loveyou:

But i agree with the suspicion thing...it ALMOST (not quite, but almost) made up for leaving out the conspiracy thing...i loved that...when the point out sam as being the main gatherer of information and he's all embarrased...aw! :cuddles:

[Smaug the Smog]

Mine is...
Aragorn after the fight with Lurtz and is talking with Legolas and Gimle - Leave all that can be spared behind...we travle light...lets hunt some orc! :grin: :p ;) lol

[Pil]

IT's a really powerful line...and we get to see a glimpse of how close the three of them become in TTT. And the friendly, encouraging look exchanged between legolas and gimli gives us a taster of their friendship too. Nice one Smaug The smog! :thumbs:

[Eowyn]

I can't wait for TTT! I hope they leave in all the stuff between legolas and gimli.

and I love all the lines mention. especially those involving merry and pippin. :p

I have also noticed that a lot of Gandlafs lines were mention. Now we know why he was up for awards.

[Gowpon]

My signature! lol

[Pil]

that is actually a cool signature! :cool: :thumbs:

[Gowpon]

When I read TTT and came to that line (I think it's in the chapter of Riders of Rohan), I was like:
"Oh my God!! This IS Legolas!!!"
:loveyou: veryhappy :wiggle: :whoohoo:

[Eowyn]

I love it! :whoohoo: :whoohoo:

[Legolas' Angel]

My favourite is Galadriel' line to Frodo " Even the smallest person can change the course of the future" because she sounds so wise
:angel: ;)

[Princess Greenleaf]

"There is still one dwarf that breathes in Moria!"

I just love how he said that with passion and thrust!

[Akiba]

I love when aragorn goes "Let's hunt some orc" oh and so completely sad the first thing Boromir says "they took the little ones" oh and when Sam goes " I made a promise Mr. Frodo a Promise...." love that whole line thingy ok I'll stop (stopping)

[Gowpon]

Akiba, it seems like u like touching stuff...and those that make me wanna cry... lol
I like cool ones! Just like my signature!! But actually I changed it a little bit from what was written in the book. :naughty:

[Akiba]

I had to read that "touching stuff" before really got it but yeah I like touching stuff(heeheehee) sorry anyways but als love kick butt phrases like ummmmm well couldn't think of any but hopefully you know what I mean like "let's kill em all" type things

[Gowpon]

YEAH!

THAT'S HUNT SOME ORC!!!!:naughty:

[TheRingBearer]

My new sig is one of my favourite and most moving lines, apart from Sam's speech to Frodo in the boat at the end. The 'I made a promise' one :thumbs:

[Pil]

I think the double use of the 'I made a promise' works very well. It draws our mind back to that relatively lighthearted time when they were 'still in the shire'. It makes us reflect on how far they have come, how much frodo and sam have gone through together; and the fact that after ALL that, they are still firm friends. :cuddles:

[Arwenevenstar]

All of Aragorns lines of course. They way he says Nazgul is is awesome. Its pronounced na'sgool but its still hard to say. And Galadriel gives me the chills because shes so amazingly beautiful and enchanting. :)

[Kezzy]

I have heaps of favourite lines. Ok lets see i love:

"Fool of a Took"
"Nothing important, just a great deal about a ring and a dark lord and something about the end of the earth"
"What about second breakfast?"
and of course

Leoglas: "This is no mere ranger, he is Aragorn son of Arathorn, you owe him your legions"
Boromir: "This is Isildur's heir?"
Legolas: "And heir to the throne of Gonodr"
Boromir: " Gondor has no king, Gonder needs no king"

and last of all

"Whats this, a ranger caught off his guard"
Ithink i could safely say i have seen the movie too many times!

[Bonos-Girl]

there is no such thing as seeing it too many times!!

[TheRingBearer]

Just seeing it not enough times :grin:

[Akiba]

I love that line (s)
very well put ringbearer

[Algamesh]

This isn't exactly my favorite line ... it's just that I only caught it last night for the first time:

In the Fords scene with Arwen, the WitchKing utters, "Give up the halfling, She-Elf". Wow! That's cool ... for ... some .... reason :blush: !

[Catz]

ohhhhhhh Algy......*shakes head*...
and just to be nit picky here the line Legolas says is "this is no mere Ranger. He is Aragorn, son of Arathorn...you owe him your allegiance ....:naughty: ;)
actually i also like all of Viggos Elvish lines.....he speaks it so offhandedly....like hes done it all his life......its very cool:cool:
:catz:

[Polly Sandybanks]

Reading all these lines makes me just want to run and watch the movie again..

I have many favourite lines. The hobbits ones of course.. :) because they're so funny. I love the breakfast-one. And Boromir's lines just before he dies. And .. ehm.. just about everything else. :)

[Bonos-Girl]

mmm...i love that bit between boromir and legolas as well.....it shows some of what boromir thinks i guess.....

[TheRingBearer]

Oh thanks Akiba lol ;)

[alexphy]

My favs-

Sam: "Please Mr. Gandalf. Don't turn me into anything...unnatural" (or something to that effect)

Gandalf: "Fool of a Took! Why don't you throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!"

Pippin: the mission, quest, thing...where are we going? part - too funny!

Last but not least, Frodo: "I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened."

The Frodo and Sam scene at the river!!!! :mecry:

Sucker for sappiness!

[Little Devil]

Awww....I love that Frodo and Sam scene too , so sweet always brings a lump to my throat......

[Lynx]

i like the fool of a took part too. I feel sorry for Pippin but the way Gandalf says "Fool of a Took" is cool.

My other favorite lines were in the "You Cannot pass" part.

I especially like Gandalf's, Frodo's, Legolas's and Aragorn's lines. But then that is basically most of the movie. :)

[Pil]

:catz:

I know! It's very well done! :thumbs: for him!

[Ephel Duath]

i agree about sams lines in the boat. It makes me so emotional!:mecry:
Boromirs death scene is great, and the breakfast scene.
i also like fool of a took, and how can we forget "nobody tosses a dwarf". Quality scripting there.lol

[Belaqua]

Boromirs "They've taken the little ones" is so sad. Most people hate him, but for me his dying speech is totally redeeming.mecry

[Little Devil]

I don't hate Boromir! He's great, a totally awesome guy! :grin:

[Akiba]

I love Boromir thinking of him makes me sad "they took the little ones" totally makes upi for the little struggle with Frodo

[Tar-Ancalimë]

Ah! Maybe most people hate Boromir, but I worship him. In the book, his character could stand a little improvement, I admit, but in the movie, the improvement is totally there! He is so noble and strong and proud and great and everyone in Gondor loves him you know, and are so sad when he dies, and he is like a throwback to the true blooded of Numenor, and he is just so great. And anytime I see anything about Boromir I have to air my views, though you people have probably heard them a thousand times before :blush:

Yeah, back on topic, my favorite line is, well, are we doing this for the book or the movie?

The book: ""Believe not that the blood of Númenor is spent, nor all its pride and dignity forgotton." (the one in my sig)

The movie: "Let us hunt some orc." (I know, it's not Boromir, but Aragorn is just as great :thumbs: )

[Ephel Duath]

i didnt like boromir at first, but now every time i see him sword fighting with merry and pippin i think ahhhhhh, he's sweet!:dragon:

[Bonos-Girl]

sean portrayed him sooo well.....you can see the pain and pride and everything!!

[Gatsby]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
These are my personal faves
1.mirror of galadriel.
Frodo:What will I see?
Galadriel: Even the wisest cannot tell…for the mirror shows many things. Things that were, things that are, and some things… that have not yet come to pass.” She says this with a slight smile on her face, and mischief laces her voice…great line

“Are you frightened”
“Yes.”
“Not nearly frightened enough.” Very nice viggo

“scattered divided leaderless” ah elrond. I love that line just how he says it and looks around when he says it, love it.

This isn’t a line but I love how galadriel says barad-dur in the preview, so neat!

“Nothing important, just a great deal about a ring and a dark lord and something about the end of the earth” same

of course “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!” brilliant
p.s love everysingle elven word spoke in that movie!! it is just so beautiful!

out
gatsby

[Bonos-Girl]

i love that strider line as well...he is sooo fit......:drool:

[Lord Raistlin]

Elrond: I was there 3000 years ago. When Men fail.

Haldir: The dwarf breathes so loud, we could have shot him in the dark.

Aragorn: Not nearly frightened enough. I know what hunts you.

Frodo: No one knows it's here. Do they? Do they, Gandalf?

Sam: Hey! Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without me.
Elrond: No, indeed. It is hardly possible to separate you, even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not.

[Bonos-Girl]

oh yeah..i must've forgotten that line of elrond's......his face!! sooo amusing!!! lol roflmao

[Aerandir]

Pippen: 'Done!'
Merry: ' Your supposed to stick it in the ground!'
Pippen: 'It is in the ground!'
Merry: 'Outside!'
Pippen: 'This was your idea!'


Merry: 'That was good!'
Pippen: 'Lets get another one!'

Aragorn: Gentlemen! We do not stop until nightfall.
Pippen: What about breakfast?
Aragorn: We've already had it.
Pippen: We've had one yes, but what about second breakfast?
Merry: Don't think he nows about second breakfast, Pip
Pippen: What about Elevenses? Luncheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper? He's nows about those doesn't he?
Merry: I wouldn't count on it Pip.

Pippin: Anyways, you need people of intelligence on this sort of... mission... quest... thing.
Merry: Well, that rules you out, Pip.

Pippin: Are we lost?
Merry: No.
Pippin: I think we are.
Merry: Shh! Gandalf's thinking.
Pippin: Merry?
Merry: What?
Pippin: I'm hungry

Merry: I don't know why he's so upset. It's only a couple of carrots.
Pippin: And some cabbages. And then those three bags of potatoes we lifted last week, and, and, the mushrooms, the week before.
Merry: Yes, Pippin, my point is, he's clearly over reacting. Run!

Pippin: It's working!
Merry: I know it's working. Run!

lol roflmao lol roflmao

~Aerandir

[Gatsby]

why is it that merry is always telling pip to run?
out
gatsby

[Little Devil]

I love the Merry and Pippen lines,so funny. lol

[Aerandir]

The best lines ever!



~Aerandir

[Togo Bleecker]

Fool of a TOOK!- cause my sister and i still call each other that when we do something stupid
They have a cave troll- because the way boromir says that is classic
n-n-nothing important, something about the dark lord and the end of the world...(but of course none of that is important..lol)
the tiny part in moria when they are all sitting down (you have to listen really carefully ) and merry and pippin talk
Merry are we lost?
Shh gandalf is thinking...
Merry..im hungry - a classic Pippin line

Im not sure if those are entirely correct but -shrug- oh well

[Nessa]

There's no correct answers, its all opinion in here! ;) :grin:

I love that Sam line as well, makes me smile! :)

[Adunauriel]

I love "Fool of a Took." it's one of my faves.;)

[Adunauriel]

another of my faves is:

Pippin: " You need People of intelligence for this sort of mission, quest, thing."
Merry: " Well I guess that leaves you out."

Then to finish it off, after Elrond says "You'll be the Fellowship of the Ring."

Pippin: "Great, where are we going?"

I just love that whole part, always makes me laugh...lol

[Eowyn]

no doubt pippin shall entertain us some more in TTT! :whoohoo: I can't wait!

[Aerandir]

:whoohoo: :whoohoo: :whoohoo: :whoohoo: :whoohoo:

~Aerandir

[Adunauriel]

Neither can I.....:wave:

[Togo Bleecker]

44 more days!...i think

[Nessa]

Somewhere around there. ;) But we were talking about best lines in The Fellowship, yes? :grin:

I love the very powerful lines from Boromir on Amon Hen (go figure its my favorate scene!), "It could have been mine, it SHOULD have been mine!!!" Grrrr, good stuff. ;)

[Togo Bleecker]

though it is sad to think of, i cant wait to see the way the ring corrupts frodo and the way elijah plays it out...nontheless i agree sean bean said the lines with such determination it was totally believeable

[Nessa]

I expect no less than breathtaking from Elijah in the next two films. He has a lot of ..... detractors.... that I would simply adore to see be put in there place. ;)

Regarding Sean Bean, couldn't have said it better, Togo. :grin:

[Eoliah]

Frodo: "I miss the Shire. I spent all my childhood pretending I was off somewhere else, off with you on one of your adventures. My own adventure turned out to be quite different. I'm not like you, Bilbo."


I founded this scene very sad. In this single sentence, we feel as if Frodo has grewn suddenly ten years older...

[Togo Bleecker]

yah i agree, it as if he (well this is how i saw it) cant be like the person he lived up to all his life..i mean growing up hearing Bilbo's stories and pretty much idolizing him, it as if he has finally found himself, even though it took a horrible expeirence to get him there (the wraiths and such) very good point eoliah, i never realized how much i did love that scene

[Brindlescruff]

My favorite dialouge:
Boromir: Leave it! It is over! The World of Men shall fall, and all will come to darkness, and my sity to ruin
Aragorn: I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you, I will not let the White City fall, nor our people fail.
Boromir: Our people? Our people! I would have followed you, my brother, my captain, my king!
Aragorn: Be at peace, son of Gondor!

[Tar-Ancalimë]

awww mine too (from the movie)!!! :loveyou: awwwwww mecry so sad...

[Samwise Gamgee]

For me it is the bit at the end where frodo and sam are sitting in the boat and sam dose his big speach. 'and i don't plan to, and i don't plan too.' and all that!!

[Eoliah]

it's also as if everyone could recognize himself in this painful statement. In real life, we try hard to be like some people we admire, and in the end, we suddenly see ourself as we really are: definitely not a hero. Just ordinary poor people looking for a role in the Big Dream...

(sorry for my english, I'm french and do my best . Hope I'm "understandable"... :-)

[Togo Bleecker]

i could understand you just fine and im flunking english :)

[Adunauriel]

For me one of my fave lines is: Legolas "I have not the heart to tell you, for me the grief is still too near." but as I've said in another thread that's my fave scene anyways.:)

[Togo Bleecker]

ohh so that is what he says!!! i could never understand him when he says that...it always gets lost after the i have not the heart to tell you. When i watched that with subtitles i must of been looking elsewhere at that part. What a sweet line.

[Little Devil]

Also love the line when Sam and Frodo are in the boat, 'I made a promise Mr Frodo, a promise,' Wow! *wipes tear from eye*

[Togo Bleecker]

that line always gets me...

[elfgirl]

I soooooooo totally love the little Moria scene;
Gandalf- Fool of a Took! Next time throw yourself in and rid us of your stupiity! (as you can probably tell!)
I also like Gandalfs life lesson in Moria to Frodo.
And last but not least, Bilbo's liking half as much and least as much speech!

[Lady Ashley]

I like all the lines that were from the book...no surprise there! It just tickles me to death when they get lines right!

[Togo Bleecker]

it took me so long to get what bilbo was saying...my god i felt stupid afterwards...just like the hobbits..lol

[Samwise Gamgee]

Its a bit of a hard one but i would have to say as my signiture does.

"I made a promise, Mr. Frodo. A promise. Don't you leave him, Samwise Gamgee, and I don't mean to. I don't mean to."

[Togo Bleecker]

i love that line ...-gets all teary eyed- it gets me everytime..so touching...

[Little Devil]

Another warm and fuzzy moment. ;)

[Darth Saruman]

i love the dialogue between Saruman and Gandalf inside Orthanc.

Saruman: "I think it would be wise, my friend."

Gandalf: "Tell me...friend. When did Saruman the Wise abandon reason for madness?"

especially when Gandalf says "friend".........badass.

[Chaos Mage]

It isn't really a line, but during the council of Elrond when everyone is shouting and Frodo stands up and says "Iwill take the Ring to Mordor!"

The look on Gandalf's face at that moment is so moving. You can just feel the pride that he has in Frodo, coupled with his regret that such a small person has to bear so heavy a burden. No words are needed there, just the look on his face. THAT is what I call great acting.

[Bonos-Girl]

i know what you mean...he got kinda 'i knew this would happen but i really don't want frodo to have to bear the ring' look. it's so sweet...awww

[Iarfirithwen]

oooo I don't know which would be my favourite. There's so many it's hard. I think I have favourite types. Such as favourite funny line, favourite serious line, etc

Actually, I think I'll have to go watch it again to check .....
;)

[Frodo's Love]

You've already mentioned many of my favourite scenes... Two of them you can see in my signature from Galadriel and Gandalf.
I also love to hear Frodo say: "What must I do?", so desperately , but determined.
Frodo and Aragorn at Amon Hen: their dialogue really makes me shiver...
Frodo and Sam at the end in the boat: Sam's words make me weak...
and Pippin's "second breakfast" is o so funny! Love that scottish accent! :loveyou:
And so there are many more...:thumbs:

[Laurelin]

I just love how Gandalf says Balrog... ahhh its so beautiful

[Huan the Hound]

In the extended version, I love the subtle forshadowing of this last line in the scene where elves are walking though the Shire, leaving for the Grey Havens :

"I don't know why, but it makes me sad."- Sam Gamgee



Oh, I know why! mecry

[Aranel Eruntale]

"I know half of you half as well as I should like and I like half of you half as well as you deserve."- Bilbo

"What's that?"-Pippin
"It's a pint."- Merry
"It comes in pints? I'm getting one."- Pippin

"Take it!"- Frodo
"No!"- Gandalf
"I'm giving it to you!"- Frodo

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness binds them

"I wasn't dropping no eves, sir."- Sam

"Don't you leave him, Samwise Gamgee. And I don't mean to."- Sam

What was Merry's quote at the begining when they're hiding from the wraith's in the woods? "Something" Ferry.

[Bonos-Girl]

i love the eaves one from sam!! pure genius!!

That's extremely moving indeed. Think I will cause a flood with my tears in the theater at the end of the year when it comes to the Grey Havens...

"That Black Rider was looking for something.. or someone.. Frodo?"

:grin:

[Aranel Eruntale]

Buckleberry Ferry. That's it. For some reason I love Merry saying Buckleberry Ferry.

[Bonos-Girl]

me too...its the way he says it...actually merry saying anything pretty nice :drool:!!

[Lorien21]

HI!! my favourite line is very tipical. In the council:

"If by my life or death I can protect you, I will" "you take my sword"
I love it!!! it's very epic and strong, it's his life for other one.

[Tar-Minyatur]

I love most if not all the lines mentioned here but one I thought I'd mention is at the very beginning when Galadriel is speaking in Elvish and then translating into Westron(I assume that she's translating). It's a great start because it plunges the viewer deeply into Tolkien's world right off the bat.
"The world is changed. . .

[Jessica]

my favorite is when there in the moria and gandalf says "when in dark and in dout always follow your nose" its was funny

[Evenstar]

When Merry yells

'But you're part of this world!'

at the ents. That's a really moving line, and moment. :(

[Periantari Andruil]

I have a couple... from the book/movie: =) (this is in no particular order)

Galadriel: The Quest stands upon the edge of a knife.
Stray but a little, and it will fail, to the ruin of all.
Yet hope remains while the Company is true.

"By Elbereth and Luthien the Fair, you shall have neither the Ring nor me!" ~Frodo at the Bruinen Ford

Boromir: One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly.

"I will take the ring ... I will take the ring to Mordor...
though i do not know the way." ~Frodo

"I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn, and if by life or death I can save you, I will"

Frodo: I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.

Gandalf to Frodo about Bilbo not killing Gollum when he had the chance:
The key line is this: "My heart tells me that he (Gollum) has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before the end; and when that comes, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many ---yours not the least."

ahh such a good book =)

Tolkien is the MAN! hehe :-D

[Glarawen]

I must say that I liked the begining part w/ the over voice thing but hey i like it all and I could recite it to all who ask from memory and my mum finds it funny and she gets me to go to her shop (she owns a hair salon) and resite parts of the book and the movie......... oh how exciting! lol ;)

[Glarawen]

even though most arent in the movie (or at least all of it) i also like all the poems and verses Tolkien made up :thumbs:

[Ludibunda]

Galdalf to Frodo about Gollum,"Do not be too eager to deal out judgement. Even the very wise cannot see all ends."

Frodo had said that Bilbo should have killed Gollum when he had the chance. Little did Frodo know that Gollum would take the ring where he himself could not!

[Celebrían]

Hmm...I thought I had already posted a reply about his topic...maybe not...well...I have a bunch of favorites:

(These aren't listed in any particular order)

"There is only one Lord of the Ring. Only One who can bend It to His will, and He does not share power." (do you remember this part? Right before Gandalf jumps off the top of Orthanc onto the back of the eagle? I love the was way he said this line!

Boromir's death speech!!!!!! mecry mecry so sad!

Gandalf's speech to Frodo in Moria. There is so much truth in what he says. We would all do well to follow his advice!

Pippin's famous, "We've had ONE, yes, but what about second breakfast?" (and that expression after he says it...priceless!

Sam's "I wasn't dropping no eaves, Sir, honest!" and everything he says after this line, great stuff!

Also I loves the beginning with the black screen and Galadriel speaking in Elvish, but also the entire prolouge. Some people may not have liked it, but I did. Lines like, "..but they were all of them deceived...for ANOTHER ring was made." I guess it's just the way she says the line. Also, "It ensnared a new bearer." Pretty much the entire prolouge. Cate had a great way of putting mystery and intrigue into her voice that just realed me in from the very beginning! Very well done.

Well...that's all I can think of for now...but these stuck out the most.

[Shieldmaide of Rohan]

I really like the prologue, the whole thing justb plunges you straight in / contrasting with the happy carefree world of the shire.

I also love Aragorns line "i would have gone with you to the end, into the very fires of Mordor'- hes so brave!

[Evenstar]

Best line (or lines):

In the place of a dark lord you would have a queen, not dark but beautiful and terrible as hte dawn! treacherous as the sea! Stronger than the foundations of the earth! All shall love me and despair!

And:

I amar prestar aen, han mathon ne nen, han mathon ne chae, a han noston ned 'wilith.

Go Galadriel! :elfqueen:

[Periantari Andruil]

Galadriel: The Quest stands upon the edge of a knife.
Stray but a little, and it will fail, to the ruin of all.
Yet hope remains while the Company is true.

Aragorn: "I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you, I will not let the White City fall. Nor our people fail."

sorry...very obsessed...so had to post more ;)

(watched part of the movie tonight...good stuff, good stuff ... :thumbs:
(not to mention parts of the book too...heheheehe....) :grin:

[Celebrían]

I agree, Andruil. I also really like Galdriel's speech in Lórien. Very cool stuff. In fact...now that I think about it ALL of Galadriel's lines are on my "favorites" list! :thumbs:

[Winyaél Greenleaf]

Suddenly, I've just fallen in love with Bilbo's 'And he lived happily ever after, to the end of his days.'
I don't know... It's just kinda sad and touching when he said that.

[Celebrían]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I liked that part, too. Thumbs up to PJ for showing the close relationship between Gandalf and Bilbo. Very heart-warming stuff.

[Esmerelda Brandybuck]

There are so many lines in the movie that stand out to me.... Boromir's last words to Aragorn...."Fool of a Took! Next time throw yourself in!" but my favorite...the one that gives me chills is "Fly! You fools!" (It's even my sig line! LOL)

[Celebrían]

Yeah, it gave me chills the first time I heard it, too.

[Lasgalen]

My favorite line is when Haldir says "The Dwarf breathes so loud we could have shot him in the dark."

I also like Boromir saying "I would have followed you, my brother, my captain, my king!" That line sends chills down my spine.

-Lasgalen

[Celebrían]

Oh, but you have good taste, Lasgalen! I loved that they kept the line about "the dwarf" :) . As for Boromir' s line, " I would have followed you, my brother"...Oh!...... The first time I heard it, I felt like I had been stabbed in the heart! So powerful!

[Winyaél Greenleaf]

I like Boromir's death scene line too. It made me so sad. mecry My mum refused to watch that part everytime we watch the dvd. lol
Lurtz is so eeeeeeeevil...

[Celebrían]

lol My mom makes me fast forward through death scenes, too. I really don't see the point in doing that, though, because you still see the person die, just a heck of a lot faster. :)

[Lasgalen]

Celebrían
In TTT will she make you fast forward the Helm's Deep battle? The deaths are not close up (except Haldir) so maybe it will be OK

-Lasgalen

[Celebrían]

I don't think so, Lasgalen. She's not the LOTR fan that I am, so the deaths in LOTR don't affect her like they do me. Truth be told, it would be more likely for her to want to fast forward through Boromr's death scene than Haldir's.

[Togo Bleecker]

the "dwarf breathes so loud" line i must admit was a bit funnier to me in the book because they said Sam was breathing so loud and then althroughout lorien sam was trying to breathe quietly...but i must admit that was a very funny line and the glare that gimli sends back in response is priceless

[Roxanne Elessar]

Anything that Aragorn says...OOH!!! Look at the two lines that are said by Aragorn in my signature. Those are two of my favourites.

[Roxanne Elessar]

Just to hear Aragorn is good for me!

[Eámanë Greenleaf]

I have to agree with Catz on this one. I don't care if it's predictable or not, it's just awesome! "Something draws near... I can feel it." :drool:

I also love Pippin and Merry's lines! They're hilarious!

"Done..."

"You're supposed to stick it in the ground!"

"It is in the ground!"

"Outside!"

"This was your idea!"

::KABOOM!!::

roflmao lol roflmao lol

[Celebrían]

lol yeah, I love that, too. If you watch the FOTR EE DVD (with the cast commentary on), they say that when the rocket went off, it went off FOR REAL, but they didn't tell Billy and Dom that they were going to use a real rocket. So if you listen carefully, you can hear Billy "scream like a little girl". lol

[Periantari Andruil]

that's a classic scene.. so funny :)
hobbits are so cute :D
