What is your favorite LOTR Battle and why?

lol I know thats what I was hinting, said it in a documentary i watched

Discos - or was it the second disc on the dvd 😕

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.

even if minor, if they for some odd reason there wasnt a frodo climax and they let us see the battle for the battle it would have been a good, one

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

i was somewhat hoping the DVD give us a month to which the EE is to be released, but instead we get nothing, only hint i got was coming this holiday season on a coupon, and the mag w/ the dvd said before christmas, too far away if u ask me

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

the witch king 1 jus cuz legolas kicked ass wit the elephant n a girl killed da bad dud.

i agree bloom!becuz,legolas is just too hot there!

😑

What does Legolas have to do with the Witchking ( pray )? You mean the whole battle of Pelennor? 🙂 'twas great ✅
But I still prefer the Last Alliance ✅

damn I hate these shortened words......even more so on the bleeding internet

its a big fight in the most part between Pelennor Fields and Dagorlad (last alliance)

... 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 ✅

😱

still very surprised there are very few votes for the last alliance, there are alot of Fornost votes, somewhat surprising.

Fav Battle in 1st Age: 5th Battle of Beleriand
2nd Age: Dagorlad
3rd Age: Pelennor Field

Pelennor Fields because its awesome as shi*, exciting and...just because it is

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

I do love Pelennor Fields...cuz Legolas is such a gamer! But i aslo love helms deep....i love it when the elves come...and then when gandalf comes, just when you think all is lost they end up kicking some orc butt! 🙂

✅ 🙁

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 🙂
