Haldir's Death

meh, I would rather see the battle of Lorien as well in which Haldir protects ✅

It definitely did
Because it didn't exist in the book ... and anything is better than Haldir's death 🙄

a conundrum Arroch???

^ agreed 😄

a what what 😬

conundrum: a difficult problem

I know what it is I am wondering how it is a difficult problem to film Haldir's death...

Until i truly studied LOTR (after seeing ROTK and starting my obsession) I didnt really think Haldir dying was all that sad, but the last time i watched TTT i about died crying. The same with Boromir in FOTR

why didnt you cry when Madril died, or a gondor soldier, or a couple of stable boys at helms deep ❌

i thought that bit was sad when they were taking them to prepare for the battle... 🙁 but funny when that old geeza shot that urak which started the battle of 🙂

That "old geeza" was called Aldor 🙄 😛

I think the saddest death in TT was of this elf we never saw alive... he was lying dead in the background... probably nobody noticed him... he looked SO sad cry I mean, maybe he had a family at home, waiting for him to come back... and nobody will be able to tell them that he is dead because nobody saw him dying...

cry

Haldir, yergh, he's just stupid

i don't really need to now his name i just thought it was funny

Aldor the weak...

Yes, I remember seeing that dead elf with the cold eyes that stared at nothing...his last thoughts before he died were probably:

"Lo! the hour is come when I face death. But with a noble heart I shall not die in vain. Sad will be then for those whom I love, for they will not know of my fate until it is too late."

Haldir however, and I firmly believe this; a great warrior we are led to believe yet died tragically as if he were a novice child put forth before the fray whose legs quake and his heart tremble...could they not have choreographed a better ending???

where at the two towers was this death, the book perhaps 🙄

Yea, he has such a sad expression in his face... so... empty... searching... 🙁

There's also this boy in the scene before the battle of the Hornburg starts
you can hardly see his face... but you see how afraid he is, though he tries to hide it under his masque, his helmet
He probably died and again nobody would have noticed it

Haldir's death was so - unnecessary 😘 and rather wrong-placed I think

-

--anyways, Haldirs death sounded better in the books

--[...] it didn't exist in the book

Didn't we already have exactly the same one page ago 😆 🙄

-

it was...in your words wrong placed...

i don't even think he died in the book...all that we know is that he saw the fellowship off on their little boats...

*goes off to look for the boy*

was it the one who calls himself Haleth son of Hama??

I also don't think he died - why should he? Well maybe he did, later, in the battles of Eastern Lórien 😬

The only positive aspect about his death in the film - lovely Quenya text in the background soundtrack 😄 from Galadriel's Ailaurie-song 🙂
