great movie!!!!!! it had AMAZING acting and EPIC battle scenes. you will not be dissapointed!!!!!!!!!!!!

cause he's a freaking elf lol

I love Gandalf's horse, Shadowfax! I love the part where Legolas and the dwarf are having that competition of who can kill the most guys in the war! I didn't really like that the whole movie was mostly war scenes, but still good. I like it a lot. And let me just say that Legolas is awesome with that bow, but how come he never runs out of arrows?

Even better than the Theatrical version, as we are given an extra hour of footage and more of Middle-Earth! Love the Ent draughts scene!

Incredible movie! The Battle for Helm's Deep was wonderfully captured! Just as good as The Fellowship of the Ring, and that doesn't happen often!

This is my favorite of the three LOTR books, and the movie delivers in a huge way! ~WeAreSpartacus/notTom

Pippin (to Merry); I had the loveliest dream last night! There was this large barrel full of pipe-weed, and we smoked all of it. And then you were sick.

Legolas; Final count: forty-two. Gimli; Forty-two? Oh, that's not bad for a pointy-eared, elvish princling. I myself am sitting pretty on forty-three.

Merry; He doesn't look too happy, does he? Pippin; Not too happy at all, Merry. Merry; Still, I suppose the view is nice from up there. Pippin; Oh, yes. It's a quality establishment. I hear the staff are very good. What are you doing? Merry; Nothing. The world's back to normal. That's all. Pippin; No it isn't. I'm starving. Merry; Good luck trying to find anything decent to eat in this place. Probably only dead rats and moldy bread. Saruman's store room! Pippin; I don't believe it! Merry; It can't be! Pippin; It is! Merry; Long-bottom leaf. Finest pipe weed in the South Farthing. Pippin; It's perfect! One barrel each! Wait! Do you think we should share it with Treebeard? Merry; Share it? No, no. Dead plant and all that. Don't think he'd understand. Could be a distant relative. Pippin; Oh I get it. Don't be hasty. Merry; Exactly.

Galadriel; In the gathering dark, the will of the Ring grows strong. It works hard now to find it's way back into the hands of Men. Men, who are so easily seduced by it's power.

Aragorn; You have some skill with a blade. Eowyn; Women of this country learned long ago; those with out swords can still die upon them. I fear neither death nor pain. Aragorn; What do you fear, my lady? Eowyn; A cage. To stay behind bars until use and old age accept them and all chance of valor has gone beyond recall or desire. Aragorn; You are a daughter of kings. A shield-maiden of Rohan. I do not think that will be your fate.
