I love the addition of an ent being burned and scorched, because in the novel treebeard mentions a "young and strong " ent that was burned and scarred horribly.
With how fast they were moving, it was young indeed.
It was Pippin who mentioned it if I remember correctly.
@@Sephvion Hence why the dead are forever young ;)
In the book he perished I believe. His death drove the Ents to rage
His name is Beechbone; he was indeed young, not much older than an Enting (child Ent), and in the book the fire killed him.
"It is likely we go to our doom."
"Oh nevermind Isengard is basically empty, let's curbstomp these boys real quick."
Ikr Like zero ent casualties! 😂
@@marksharp3185 The Ent that got burned was a casualty, but he was still okay.
Imagine the ents vs the whole Uruk army, it'd be still a lopsided fight one vs one, numbers might let the Uruks win but the height/strength of the Ents would be a force to consider
@@TheBfutgreg But the moment they release the river the uruk army would drown just like these orks.
Urukais would put a better fight, but still be destroyed by the Ents and Huorns. An old Amiga game called War in Middle Earth, 20 Ents and 20 Huorns would beat 10 thousand orcs, with only 1 Ent and 1 Huorn as casualties.@@TheBfutgreg
And here we have the most epic depiction of paper beating rock in history.
More like paper used rock to beat scissors (iron) 😂
Good call!
1:52 I always liked that part when the Ent that was on fire put his head in the water. Lol
They understand chemistry
Sadly, Lord Denethor did not have the wit to see it.
Me too lol
@@bewareking6458 He was covered in oil, so water wouldn't have helped
@WingedFish66 Oh.... really? Huh, I guess never mind then.
1:14 the Ent that was about to crush an Ork before deciding that's too much effort and just casually tossing him into the incoming river has got to be my favourite
He's like "Nah that's easier" when he saw the river
Dude I've seen this more times than I can count and I just now noticed that. Hilarious!
Lmao I never noticed that
😆 i'm gonna miss this so much
I never noticed that!
We know the Ents can kick butt, but let's give some respect to Pippin and Mary for devising this plan.
They convince Treebeard to take the route that would lead them to the clearing and anger the Ents.
Also, their rock-throwing skills are impeccable.
Yep, Gandalf foresaw it: "The coming of Merry and Pippin will be like the falling of small stones that starts an avalanche in the mountains." Without convincing the Ents to intervene, Saruman would have rebuilt and prevented Theodan from helping Gondor. Each of the hobbits played pivotal roles in the story.
Hobbits have impeccable aim as written in the book. I'm actually glad that tid bit never got addressed but shown.
@@dylanhills4974 Some of them were even good at archery that I'm convinced that if they weren't such peaceful creatures, they could actually be a close match to the Elves.
@@siphonophores they also have natural stealth magic, so they would make great stealth archers.
Their stealth ability was never highlighted in the story but I suspect that it played a significant role in ensuring Frodo and Sam's survival in Mordor. Not even Glorfindel could do what Frodo and Sam did.
@@siphonophores One story that didn't seam to apear or be mentioned or was omited from the movie was the scowering of the shire in the book. The hobits finde the shire overrunn by sarumon and a band of hired thugs running the place as they like. When surounded by archers the thugs laughed at the idia of these little people standing up to them and thier leeder payed the price. This story also has Grima stab Sarumon in the shire rather then at isengard.
Would love to know what Saruman was thinking at this moment. He probably dismissed the Ents as being a bunch of ancient relics that would never be too bold to step out of their forest and pose a threat. Then one morning he wakes up to the noise of complete chaos and sees all his plans go to hell.
Likely similar to Macbeth when Birnam forest marches against him
Indeed; Tolkien wanted to improve on Shakespeare hear by actually having trees move
He deserved it all
it goes to show how Sauruman had truly fallen from grace. As Treebeard says, "a wizard should know better!" Sauruman was corrupted by Sauron and no longer wise. His mind enfeebled by darkness. Not unlike he was doing to Theoden
in the book Tolkien mentions Saurman dismissed the Ents as a non threat. He belived in technology over nature. This is a theme in both thye Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings
If I’m not mistaken, none of the Ents even went down during this battle. They only had the one that was scarred but still lived to tell the tale.
Not in the film at least. Beechbones (the burning Ent) doss perish in the books and it sends the Ents into an even greater fury.
@@ZiggyMandarr Was that by the orcs or by Saruman, because apparently in the books he did set one aflame.
@@alexanderhunt88 the orcs
The Ents had a gloom disposition , because the Female Ents were extinct , so they were the last generation....Beechbones was literally one of the last youngsters of their species.
@@phantasosxgames8488 Treebeard did not miss the female Ents, but he was getting a little bush on the side.
1:06 Treebeard: Break the dam! 1:09 Release the river!
I love that line it’s my favorite.
Don't forget the Ent Throwing the Orc into the River XD!!!
I don’t think that’s treebeard. The dam is miles away
@@kevinboudreaux7860
Well we don’t know of any other Ent who can talk. Also, Treeebeard screamed so loud that the entire forest heard. So maybe it was him
@@yinthedraconequus4818 not in the movies, but you meet others in the books
I remember the whole movie theater audience cheering when the one ent put himself out in the wave of water.
Me as well! I remember my experience of when I saw these 3 films in the theater for the first time SO well!
@alaia-awakened Lucky you. I was way too young to experience these movies in theater. 😢
I remember that as well, I was a kid, I was so sad almost crying when they set him on fire and I felt such relieve in that part. We all cheered and laugh 😂❤
This is what Sauruman and those Orcs deserve after what they did to Fangorn Forest and slaying Treebeard's friends.
Cleansed Isengard of the filth Saruman bestowed upon The Tower of Orthanc.
All these years and the graphics still hold on
You're left with Marvel to compete against, this will always win
These movies came out when I was 10-13, kids these days will never get something like this
0:39 the only display of hobbit marksmanship we get in the entire movie series, it’s surprising but it does get mentioned in the books that hobbits are skilled shoots with most projectile weapons, no where near the level of elves, but still enough to surprise most foes, makes me wonder why Tolkien didn’t give them throwing weapons or even bows.
They tend to bean people with apples and stones occasionally in the books, and Bilbo does it quite often in The Hobbit. In the end of the LOTR book trilogy they retake the shire and most of the hobbits are bowmen.
@@davidh8271 because they hate fighting and rather smoke weed or eat
They did a good job hitting the Uruks in the Fellowship as Boromir was fighting for them. Two good showings of their marksmanship!
Sam also throwed rock at Gollum head
wrong. Merry and Pippin throw rocks at the uruk hai in the Fellowship of the Ring movie
I love this part, it represent literally the nature herself stand and fight the darkness
Praise be to Yavanna!
Ya and irl that’s starting to happen to us humans. And we’re not looking so good
@@Bake-kurijra No, stop doom-posting.
Humans are part of nature. You are not seperate.
I also find the part interesting that because of how ents think in long timespans, they didn't even notice that half of their friends where chopped up and murdered and that saruman was evil. Nature was destroyed while they were just chilling, connections to real world geopolitics are just a coincidence
I love the small story of the burning ent. Got fire on him and then washed it off using the water.
Same lol! Noticed that when I was watching this with my dad lol.
The one washing off the fire is not the one we saw getting lit on fire by the orcs. Only His head burns, not his entire body ( that happened to the ent we see earlier )
@@lukasnagel4492 thats because the rest is already burnt to charcoal...he is badly wounded.
@@Motschekibschen He can probably regrow his bark in time, albeit with scars.
I'd say aside from Helms Deep, the final battle at the Black Gates, and the ride of the Rohirrim, and the lighting of the beacons, this is one of the best adaptations of a scene from the books. Really shows just how powerful the ents are, and how chaotic their sudden assault on Isengard really was, whereas in the book we only get a brief description of the major events of the battle. It even still has the young (speaking from a relative standpoint) ent being set alight.
I would disagree. The ents are far more frightening in the books, talking about how stone was breaking at the very sound of their roaring and Orthanc being in the middle of a whirlwind of tossed stone, warmachines, and Orc corpses.
@@lordnaarghul Fair enough. In my personal opinion I feel this does a good enough job at displaying that.
@@lordnaarghulalways someone.
Yeah but the one where they go to war and March there with the music playing in the background 8s epic too in itself.
One of the best scenes of the Lord of the rings
At 0:57 they start chucking rocks at the tower itself which is a useless gesture, Isengard was functionally indestructible, but it goes to show how pissed off the ents were that they did it anyways.
Or probably to lure saruman out just to watch them ruin everything he built. In case they had not seen him yet
They learnt siege warfare from Age of Empires
After 20 years this was such a cheer worthy moment
My sister and I were smiling the whole time
Go Ents!
Plus it was nice seeing merry and pippin participate
I was like 11 when this came out, I remember bugging my dad to take me to see it like 3 more times (that's a lot for our family I guess) after we watched it the first time
When trees get revenge for deforestation 😂😂
Nature always wins!!
Based on a true story
Well, that's literally the reason why the ents decided to go to Isengard
I adore how significant the dam breaking is. After all that time deliberating, and then in the utter FURY of the Last March of the Ents, Treebeard managed to command a dozen ents to split off and hit the dam, which wrecked the industry of Isengard beyond salvaging in one fell swoop. Good decision lads!
For people who just watch the movies. The reason why Saruman did not shoot fireballs at the ent's is because he lost the majority of his power threw his corruption and he saw through his palantis ( crystal ball), that he was losing at helms deep. His uruks were scattered in Rohan and his power was majorly drained but to breeding his Uruki's. The first Dark lord Morgoth lost the mojority of his power by corrupting Elves into Orcs, Dragons, Balrogs etc. He is also devastated ten fold by all his plans failling at the same time and facing judgement.
Treebeard's reaction at 1:40 is priceless. "Ooooh, this is going better than I expected!"
Treebeard: “The ents are going to war!, it is likely that we go to our doom.”
*Proceeds to done a heavily one sided domination on isengard with little to none ent casualties LOL.
They lost one. It just pissed the Ents off even further.
It's a little bittersweet, though, as it's mentioned later that the casualty was among the youngest of them, and with the Ent-wives gone, possibly forever... there will be no more children.
"A hit! A fine hit."
Just to show how unbelievably strong Ents are, those rocks they were throwing weren't already loose. They'd literally ripped them from the stone walls and threw them with such forces as to carry any Orc they hit with them
"Release the river" One of the most powerful lines in the entire trilogy.❤❤❤
It's one thing to see the Ents crush Orcs underfoot, but the special vehemence with which they tear down Saruman's industry is on another level of anger entierly.
I mean, if I came across some ants that had built machines out of the corpses of my friends, I would be angry as well.
I just realized how this is like the inverse of the Balrog scene from FOTR. Ancients beings, as sold as Arda itself, awakening to fight against a foe. But this time instead of an evil force against good it is and ancient good against an ancient evil
Y'know, it's ironic that Saruman was considered the wisest of the wizards. That's why he was chosen to lead them. But when he ordered the destruction of all those trees, he made a very bad, very unwise decision.
They higher you stand the deeper you could fall. It is a primal archetype of being powerful and gifted but egocentric..Myth of Lucifer the brightest and mightiest of the Angels falling because of pride etc...
Saruman was actually even dumber. He had an army of 10,000 Uruk-hai, freshly bred and ready for war, but he sent them all to Helm’s Deep in the hopes of destroying the people of Rohan while the Rohirrim were elsewhere, breaking Rohan’s spirit. But that move left Isengard with few Orcs to defend it. Many of those who remained at Isengard were smiths and miners, not warriors. 1,000 Uruk-hai still probably wouldn’t have been enough to stop the Ents, but it would have been some buffer.
Pip is the reason the whole story happens the way it did. If it wasnt for his curiosity in Moria Gandalf could not ascend, I'm pretty sure he jumped out first to distract the Uruk away from Frodo causing Aragorn to give chase and start his path to become King, he devised the plan to have the ents see what happened to the forest; cutting of Saruman's influence and he is the reason they new Sauron would attack Minas Tirith. 👍
A fool took!!
Initially treebeard said that the ents were likely marching to their doom and I was quite sad they were doing a suicide charge. And then I saw this and was laughing inside as they trampled Saruman’s forces.
This is the most satisfying part of the trilogy for me. This also has some of my favourite special effects, with the water washing away the Orc platforms 2:12.
Christopher Lee was the perfect choice for Saruman; it's a role he was born to play, and I know he deeply loved the books.
I remember as a kid I was always so upset that they lit that one Ent on fire, so it was really nice to see him be able to put it out at 1:52. 😂
I was a kid too and I almost cried when they set him on fire, I remember almost crying of happiness when I saw him putting himself out 😂 and the whole theater cheered.
Never underestimate a Hobbit holding a rock. Ever.
Such a beautiful message. No matter how much is damaged and ruined by industry, nature will always prevail. Gives me hope for this planet to outlast our influence on it.
Tolken warned against drawing meaning like this
@@samarne501 I’m not going to get into another “death of the author” debate. Either you agree or you don’t, but let’s be real, neither of us are going to change the other’s mind.
@@JimmySteller"death of the author debate" i had to google that. i was just going off what token wrote, thats all G
@@samarne501 Yes, but that opens up the debate for which there is no true answer.
The reality is we are barely a blip on mother nature’s screen. Remember Chernobyl was supposed to be uninhabitable for basically the rest of mankind, but 35 years later is basically a nature reserve
Glad to see the one that caught fire to be ok
I like how flooding Isengard is translated as releasing the river to Treebeard. This wasnt a strategic, planned siege-this was simply natures wrath making itself known after evil had been allowed to run amuck for so long. An unrelenting, unyielding, unbreaking force that you can only pray for mercy from should you hear their thunderous march. Alas, the orcs of Isengard would find no such mercy from these mighty sentinals of the forest. Only death.
How very well spoken, and yes you are correct!
i just love how the entire time Saurman is just like what the heck is that!
Break the dam! Release the river! Just the way he says it I still get goosebumps all these years later
The whole last March scene and the fight scene gives me goosebumps! Every single time for the last 23 years. I watch all three Lord of the rings and all three hobbit movies every first week of June. Amazing series will never be beat.
Am I the only one who thinks this is the best part of the movie aside from the battle at Helms Deep?
Me
Me too
I was so relieved when that one tree with his head on fire doused the flames out in the water from the broken damn
The beauty of flooding Isengard is eventually it would have become marshland, teeming with plant life
On top it would be beautiful, but the flooded caves would be pure nightmare fuel
My favorite part is the ent running into the stream to wash the fire off him, bc the first time I saw that as a kid I was like no that got one of the ents and then to see him quench the flame in the flowing river made me so happy
I can't get enough of the look of horror and confusion on Saruman's face. He can't understand how this could've happened.
"Trees? The TREES are attacking?
Aaaand they broke the dam. They flooded my whole base, and broke. My dam."
i mean he is an ancient being. Should've know of tree beings called ents.
I love it too.
RIP Sir Christopher Lee.
Am I the only one still shocked this is from 2002? It looks better than most movies today?
When the water came rushing in and that one burning ent ran over to dunk his head in, I felt that 🥲
Perms for Ents are the worst! They burn like hell! xD
I watched this when I was 7. My dad bought dvd. I miss this era.
Moral of the story. Dont mess with mother nature
I loved the panic on Saruman's face. For being an all-powerful wizard, he was powerless in this moment and he had only himself to blame as he ordered the dam to be built and for the woods to be burned.
Saruman waking up and seeing this from his balcony: ''ugh, I hate Mondays''
I like Saruman walking around like what the oh my god 😅
Having read the book, Isengard got off easy. This is a fantastic scene of a triumphant battle, easily my favourite in Two Towers and possibly in the whole trilogy. In the books, though, Ta-runda-runda-runda-rom is was a horror story.
Don't think there's such a perfect visual demonstration of how much Tolkien disliked industrialization than literal nature coming to shut it all down.
1:52 Back in December ‘02 the audience I was with at the midnight showing went nuts at this part 😂
I loved seeing the ents curb stomping orcs all day long, and Sarumans terrified face knowing he had lost was icing on the cake
Grooots ancestors going crazy 😂
I am Treebeard
I am Groot
If only the Ents had joined in the battle at the black gates
they were on their way it was just over before they arrived
That look Saruman had, I bet Lee reached back to wwII to find that
One of the most one-sided "battles" in cinematic history, and it's glorious to behold.
1:09 I say this every time I take a piss
Pippin single handedly won the entire war and all battles in between
Some of the best soundtracks in all of Lord of The Rings! Totally spectacular.
Love that even sentient trees understand and have an appreciation for long range artillery.
When you think about it, this is straight out of The Art Of war. Enemy base is emptied cause they sent their warriors to battle, this is the seat of power for this part of the army. So to send another band of fighters off to the tower to upset...is great strategy
I would hate to be that Orc 0:17
I never even realized he was swinging around an orc... Lol. The sheer brutality of this scene is perfect.
Loving the burning ent that cools down his hair in the water - and all that wood stuff the orcs created being washed away by the flood of the river🎉
I just love knowing that there's just no way the Orcs are going to win here
The burning tree always made me laugh when I was a kid
I am not surprised the ents didn’t lose a single tree. In a world where swords, axes bows and cleavers. It’s near-impossible to take down a live tree unless flame bows are used but that tree still ended up living to tell his tale.
Anyone else laugh their a** off when the Ent punted that orc into orbit
My favorite scene/battle from the movies. Luckily, the Orc armies were elsewhere, otherwize the Ents might not have succeeded.
In Middle Earth, the tree chops you down.
I'd like to see this battle if they made the movie in the 1940's with stop-motion animation on the ents and real actors when in close-up shots.
Really amazing 👌🏻💕👌🏻
Ii 'll 0
Indeed
Gandalf's arrival was already a hype, but when I saw these guys come in, I screamed! This was the same hype I got in Endgame,
People: don’t use factories and cut down trees.
People: cut down trees and use factories, adding a lot of co2 in the air
Treebeard: fine, I will do it myself
You fools! Trees feed on CO2; YOU ONLY MAKE US STRONGER!
I love this scene!! It’s the most satisfying scene in the entire movie!!!
0:24 😂😂😂
Wow..Really amazing❤️❤️👍🏻
You can immediately see what a cool magician Saruman is if he doesn't have any spell in his arsenal to incinerate all the ents at once, and he just stupidly stands on the tower and watches as they turn his possessions into ruins.
its always weird to me how it seems like the wizards in this universe have like no abilities to do much...
I think there'sa limit to what they can do. There's a reason Gandalf isn't shooting fireballs like in the game
I think its to show that Saruman is powerless in an actual battle after having spent so many hundreds of years, if not longer, simply reading and learning. He's cunning and deceitful, managing to trick both the white council (Galadriel, Elrond, and Gandalf) as well as Sauron into believing he was their ally. In the book, if it hadnt been for merry and pippin being mistaken for frodo and getting scooped up, its very likely the uruks would have brought the ring almost right to him. Probably would have still been attacked by Eomer, but Saruman very nearly came close to getting the ring using no magic at all.
The magic of the wizards was incredibly limited though and Saruman did not expect the Ents to attack so he did not prepare any magical defenses against them. The best he could do was cast a few fire trap spells but it was already too late, Isengard was overrun by Treebeard and the Ents.
Interesting fact: two centuries later, Isengard has developed into a thriving tourist destination, known for its underwater cave system SCUBA diving tours. :D
Wish the ents fought in more battles.
I always felt like the bad guys had too many OP units and the good guys not enough.
This was such a satisfying moment
I wish Amazon rainforest would do this to people who are deforesting it
Agree 💯!!!
Ah yes! I love it when treebeard gets positively hasty!
Imagine if the ents had joined at the battle of the black gate, that would’ve been soo cool to see man, dwarf, elf, wizard, hobbits and ents all fighting against the last force of saurons army
Isengard's gonna get a colon cleanse
The Ents Are GOATED!!! Their attack is one of my favorite battles in the series
_We come, we come, with roll of drum_
_Tarún darún, darún darom_
_We come, we come, with horn and drum_
_Tarún narún, narún narom_
My favourite scene from all the films
Damn the Ents were as brutal to the Orcs as Saruman was to nature.
Los Ents libraron quizás su última batalla, pero procuraron que sea épica...
And succeeded magnificently
My favorite scene of The Two Towers
An ent swinging a troll like it was nothing.
Tree beards chuckle as the water rushes at him.
Saw this in theaters TREEMENDOUS moment
1:10 that Ent calmly walking away from destroying the dam. I dont know why but it always makes me laugh
Run, Forrest Run!
I’ve always loved that the ents previously summoned an entmoot to establish that Meriadoc and Peregrin are not orcs, but they only need Treabeard growling to unite and go to war to the traitor’s lair.
