lets just say this the battle at the black gate was too short. And if the other climax wasnt playing at that time and we saw that battle more, it may have been one of the best.

The Black Gate battle was a minor battle even in the book, although the mouth of sauron scene was cut out.

yeah the mouth of sauron scene shall be awesome in the EE

it seemed that Mount Doom was veryvery closer to Bara-a-dur than it appeared in the two towers and also on the plaisn of Gorgoroth where sam and frodo were. Also they seem fairly space apart according to maps i have seen

the battle of the five armies would be interesting if it were filmed, ive always wanted to see a army of dwarves fight, charging.

... though most people that only know the film voted for Pelennor.

Interestingly there are also several votes for the wars of Angmar against Arnor [here called "wiki vs Gondor"] around Fornost yes

The 5th Battle of Beleriand aka Nirnaeth Arnoediad aka Battle of Unnumbered Tears was the saddest event to occur in all of Beleriand. Many elves, men and dwarves were slain, but those responsible for it, the SoF, all survived.

Dagorlad was great because it was this massive battle of men and elves against orcs and the power of Sauron.

Pelennor Fields rocked b/c it was visual and it involved many different armies: Gondor, Rohan, Dol Armoth, Orcs, Haradruim, Easterlings and Varigs

yes sad

I think Tolkien also did a great job describing it in the Silmarillion - all the small steps, one after the other, inevitably leading to the fatal and tragic defeat of Maedhros' Union

Interestingly it isn't Melkor who is responsible for the beginning of this battle, but the elves... yet it was the most fatal one for the Unions of the West.

Definitely my fav battle in the First Age smile
