and after ,20 years i still cry
@خالدالجاكوبIf you think the movie version was good, try reading it. 10x better. Theodin actually takes the horn from banner carrier and blows such a strong note that it breaks in two.
@thomasstevens6661Theodon was a great king. May his legacy live long

@panzerlurch2629"one of" ?
@bobmathews9072“At that sound the bent shape of the king sprang suddenly erect. Tall and proud he seemed again; and rising in his stirrups he cried in a loud voice, more clear than any there had ever heard a mortal man achieve before:
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
With that he seized a great horn from Guthláf his banner-bearer, and he blew such a blast upon it that it burst asunder. And straightway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains. Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor! Suddenly the king cried to Snowmane and the horse sprang away. Behind him his banner blew in the wind, white horse upon a field of green, but he outpaced it. After him thundered the knights of his house, but he was ever before them. Éomer rode there, the white horsetail on his helm floating in his speed, and the front of the first éored roared like a breaker foaming to the shore, but Théoden could not be overtaken. Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Oromë the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shone like an image of the Sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the hosts of Mordor wailed, and terror took them, and they fled, and died, and the hoofs of wrath rode over them. And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City.”
I’m not saying it’s the greatest movie scene of all time, but it changes you
@Frank-pt1zyThe greatest scene ever filmed
@eliecerguerra8681Perphect
@ДорианХристовBack when movies had balls and real heros and not some cuck crying about them/their feelings.
@michaelosler8437world best scene
@siialeradeeplee2:33 Goosebumps
@upstatenewyorkrailfan6775Greatest trilogy ever created. LOTR for life
@Scraps2435What a great piece of film making!
@srobg1956RIP Sire
@tedcreviston9675In 2:36 after the DEATH!!! chants, the slow pacing of the horse is much more intimidating than them to immediately charge towards the orcs. I love that scene.

@jj701613:43 BRO CHILL
@KeiraZorzI would like to point out most these riders are women because when casting called out for experienced horse riders mostly women showed up to audition
@KeiraZorz0:05 it was at this moment Harvey Weinstein knew he was fucked. If you know, you know
@DrTolisThis is your victory. It is the victory of the cause of freedom in every land. In all our long history we have never seen a greater day than this.

@CumhuriyetKalemiBest rally speech ever
@DuncanM-e6q2:20 in the books, death was a gift given by the God's, it was Sauron who corrupted it and made it to be feared. The men are finally taking its meaning back for their own
@bencarriveau3564The fact that all they had to do to breal the orc line was stampede through them in waves is so badass
@FuzzyfezzNo mientan así no se llama, el
Nombre es “en el nombre del rey”
When you see all those Riders/Horses in that one moment…if you don’t get emotional, there’s something wrong with you

@CaJoAuGyGondolin
@ObitoMentaliJolyThis is how Edin Dzeko led the Bosnian team against the Italians
@Nyx1This is how i expect 13th century mongolian fought, and why they were undefeated
@irmuun1284This movie's set designs are incredible
@CodeOn-GalBernard Hill is awsome! He definitely should've earned an Oscar to end his great acting career.
@PamelaHaseldenKing theoden thanks for teaching me why we must fight in life even though the possibilities are not with our side. RIP
@ΧρήστοςΜπογιατζιόγλουidk why but the "ride for ruins, and the world's ending" always give me goosebumps
