The charge and Theoden's speech will never not bring a tear to my eyes, everything about it is absolutely perfect and the fact that everyone of them isn't riding for glory or even victory but to to look into the face of death itself and charge right at it with nothing but triumphant force, it's incredable.
As the Polish Winged Hussars did in 1683 at Vienna in human history for saving the seat of Christianity in Europe, the Ride of Rohirrum enters into legend for filmmaking history for Lord of the Rings.

@@biggiec8224 Up to a point, but he was very much playing a double game, with his goal being to capture and master the One Ring and take Sauron's desired place as ruler of Middle-Earth.
While Ramsay kind of forgot about the USB devices disconnecting, they certainly haven't forgotten about him, and they are just waiting for him to come back.
The Lotr series is such a classic. No idea why they don't make more high-fantasy movies like that. Don't they know we're burned out on superhero movies T_T
Like The Hobbit and the garbage that is "the rings of power" they rely too much on CGI. Back when the original LOTR was made, there were more real casting, costumes and props for sets. Why? Because CGI requires less effort and money. Sadly, the passion to do masterpiece through hardwork comes very few nowadays. That's why we can't have anything like it anymore.
"Death!...Death!...DEATH!!!" I've seen that moment hundreds of times, and I still get a rush. Watching beloved characters choosing to face their inevitable destruction with such determination is timeless.
I'm glad to live in modern times but it does pull at my heart that I won't ever arrive with the king's host to save an enbattered enemy with a bro blowing the big fucking horn.
Except its always spoiled by the fact they needn't have bothered since the army of the dead turned up and wiped out the Orcs out without breaking a sweat, and the Rohirrim might as well have stayed in Rohan and got pissed.
@@osric1730 Except the army of the dead were never really there, even in the movie they were a one time use force, when they leave they still need someone to defend Gondor after the fact and face the 10,000+ Orcs left in Mordor, which Gondor's armies combined with Rohan did in the novel.
@@osric1730not really, there’s a good time gap between the arrival of the Rohirrin and the army of the dead, odds are if they hadn’t shown up the city would already have been lost, it almost was anyway, and Gandalf would certainly have been killed by the Witch King. I don’t think it was made irrelevant by any stretch of the imagination
The amount of hype within the theater during that endgame scene will forever make that scene so fun and exciting to watch never have i experienced something like that. That scene and will that memory gives me chills everytime
It makes my heart warm and my mind at peace knowing that after two decades the LotR trilogy is in the top of the comments, reflecting the everlasting quality of the film and the statement that the class is timeless. P. S. No need to mention that the LotR scenes give me goosebumps every time.
Bernard Hill! 🤩 Phenomenal is exactly right. He was excellent throughout, and embodied Theoden perfectly. But his portrayal in RoTK was nothing short of *exceptional!* The Battle of The Pelennor Fields is one of the greatest moments in cinematic history, but it rests on the back of his performance and wouldn't come close to the same heights without it.
Riding off willingly into almost certain death. And then as he lay dying, he was glad that he was now worthy to be buried in the company of his brave ancestors before him. So... powerful...
Bernard Hill as Theoden King was Magnificent; he had come a LONG way since he was the Praetorian guard who named Caligula's goofy uncle Claudius as Emperor in "I, Claudius(1976)! He points to the cringing Claudius, who's hoping to not be killed by the Praetorian Guard who had perforated Caligula moments earlier, "Hey!(in a wonderful, cheesy British accent), He'll make a good emperor...!" What a classic scene, from a classic movie(a remake of ANOTHER classic movie, made pre-WW2), based on a magnificent classic historical novel. How can you go wrong?
Not that the rides of Rohan have 3 major fights and they have to suffer the most casualties a castle defence with a horse charge in pike then they do it again at the galaden field and finally with Aragon at the black gates to to mention they lost there king there kinda following the heir apparent and there full king with Aragon but still Rohanean had to suffer the most
Lord of the Rings trilogy is incomparable. Nothing can ever beat them. Peter Jackson really created not 1 but 3 masterpieces and kept on making them better and more intense. Every character is just incredible, Aragorn like many others is my Favorite. Glad to see these 3 masterpieces which will forever remain the greatest. Edit: Cant believe i have more than 500 likes for this. Thank you LOTR rocks
@@misterlsloth2878One does not simply forget about Boromir. Sorry, it was to good I had to use it. Seriously though, fantastic movies, and great books.
There are many movies having plots with deeper meanings. LOTR is a shallow movie when it comes to the depth of the plot. It's a cinematic masterpiece nevertheless.@@vikramsinghchauhan9083
Endgame has its flaws, but Steve Rodgers standing alone, tired and injured, against an army led by Thanos is such a perfect representation of what makes him a hero
"to the king!" Gets me everytime. He delivers it in a way that leaves zero doubt, hes going to get to his king and aint a damn thing going to stop him.
I love how Theoden's all like "The horn will sound!", and Gimli's just, "Wicked! That'll be my job!" and he guns it up the stairs to give thathorn a good old Dwarven bwaaah.
The best part of Avengers Endgame for me is when Thanos' entire army appears, countless legions unleashed, and Captain America stands up, straps on his broken shield, and starts limping forward. It's literally an entire galactic army vs. one soldier, and he's ready to go. He can do this all day. That shot at 5:18 is incredible.
Return of the King had the best reinforcement scenes. not only did we get the Ride of the Rohirrim, but straight after we get an enemy reinforcement with the Haradrim's Mûmakil charge followed by the arrival of Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli with the Dead Men of Dunharrow
My least favorite thing about Return of the King is the dead army. It makes the battle of Pelennor not feel as worth it, like all the deaths were meaningless because the Army of the Dead shows up right after Rohan. That and what they did to Faramir in the movies. 2 things I didn't like. That being said, LoTR trilogy are the best movies ever made.
@@N7_Jedi I had the same issue with the army of the dead. They entire city could've fallen and all the people there dead, and the army of the dead still washes over Sauron's forces like a wave and kills them all. It dismisses all the valor beforehand, both of the men of Gondor and men and woman of Rohan ... and hobbits ... and Gandalf ... and horses ... ... ... okay, I think that's it.
That battle had so many different plot twists and turning points. I thought Twin Towers was the more emotional movie, especially when Gandolf showed up with the Riders of Rohirrim at the end, but the Battle of Pelennor Fields was a true MasterClass in telling story through huge action set pieces. Marvel's grand scale battles always aspire to be LOTR, but they never quite get there.
in my opinion there's only 2 scenes something close to rohirrim epicness: the cliffs fight scene of the last of the Mohicans. No fairy tale fantasy ending, just raw as fuck. No effects, all real, and the music holding the tension high.... And the end of flight club. That's my top 3
Man, I cannot keep it together every time I see Chadwick walk out of the portal. They couldn't have picked a more perfect first face for Steve to see. Rest in power, King T'Challa.
13:24 the dude riding his horse like he just sniffed a pound of sugar always makes me laugh. Riding into battle like the main character without a doubt.
If I remember correctly, the director only let those who read the book be at the front line, because they were the only ones that understood the feeling behind it
One scene i think that should be here, is when Baldwin arrives in Kingdom of Heaven, the line "Jersusalem has come", the shot where you can see them beyond the haze, the soundtrack, and the decisions of both leaders is just so good
@@chucksison9199 theres no need for a battle though, its the execution of dialogue, the atmosphere, the tension between sahladeen and baldwin and their wisdom that prevented a war to break out that would've greatly damaged both sides.
I remember that. I agree, it was just so good. And the way it was played into a talking match- even as a young man I understood how interesting that was
Eomer doesnt get enough cred. He got men so loyal to him that they abandon their king, he is out there doing Good work and then rejoins the king when Rohan needs it.
Fortunately, it wasn't in the book. Eomer fought with Aragorn and Theoden at Helms Deep. Grimbeorn led the relief expedition (with Gandalf) of the reformed men from the battles at the ford of Isen. Oh, and the Huorns surrounded the Orcs, and no orc made it out from under those trees.
The Charge of the Rohirrim is no doubt the most powerful movie scene ever made. I cry every time I see it. It's just a fucking masterpiece. Theodes speech and the way they all know they're most likely riding to their deaths but still doing it becomes some things just need to happen and Saurun needs to lose. The way they all scream DEATH and run right into the afterlife with a big "FUCK YOU!" written all over their faces. Just downright flawless.
Theoden’s speeches and Rohirrim charge always give me goosebumps no matter how many times I watch the trilogy. The music also accentuates the scenes. LotR is simply timeless.
Bro! both Avengers endgame and Lord of the Rings gives me goosebump!!! I love Game of Thrones but the battle scene in LOTR is in another level!! What a Timeless master piece
One of the things I love about the LOTR is how the most memorable scenes are from ancient history. When they ride out at 2:30 in this video into what they think is certain death, that actually happened during a siege, the knight templars charged out on horseback instead of dying in the fortress, in history they actually all died though, unlike this scene. The massive horse charge in the same battle down the steep hill and then outside minis tirith? (That big white city, sorry I don't remember the names) That was from our own history too when 18000 heavy horsemen from the Holy Roman Empire charged an Ottoman army of 90000 that was besieging Vienna. Apparently the hill was so steep they charged down that there was no slowing down or stopping once it started, it was biggest cavalry charge in history and sent the Ottoman army into retreat and ended their expansion. The Polish winged Hussar knights had 3000 involved with the charge. I can't even begin to imagine what 18000 knights charging toward you would look like, it would have looked endless.
@@paulfajardo713 You mean when they rushed out of the gates into their death? When I wrote this I looked for the exact battle on Google but couldn't find it, it was during one of the crusades during a siege the Crusaders lost. Sorry
I read 15-20 of the comments down below and all of you talked about LOTR!! It is hard to describe how it feels when you watch your favorite characters from the books come alive on a huge screen! Or just characters (not in the books). Some stories and epic scenes stay with you forever if the Director and Composer did a good job. You watch it again and again and the hunger to see it again only intensifies. The music only adds to the scenes and all the HAIR on the body stands up, saluting for a job well done! Like you guys, I've seen the first 3 LOTR countless times and no matter how many more times I will watch it again, it never get's boring. It took over 4 months for the CGI team to get that battle scene.
My sister and I watched the two towers about 15 times - I remember we were standing in line to buy tickets to see it again and finally noticed they had removed it from the lineup…
Saruman mocked him as 'a lesser Kingof greater Sires'..".. Theoden died, on the field of battle, as a féarless Leader, commanding the Rohirrim through the onslaught of Sauron's Orc Legions, and even the Haradrim... to be bested by none less then the King of the Nazgul...who was defeated, along his Nazgul mount, by Eowen! Theoden would be go down in history as one of the greatest Kings of Rohan! Saruman was wrong abotu a great many things, but his greatest error was his misjudgement of Theoden of Rohan!
Battle of helms deep will go down as one of the most epic fights in movie history. Then the mad lad Peter Jackson did it again with the ride of the rohirrim. Absolutely top class cinema.
One of the powers of Gandalf's ring Narya was to evoke hope and courage in others when it all seemed lost; it was awesome to see all of it play out in realtime filling Aragorn and Theoden with hope and courage just as dawn was close and as Gandalf was approaching.
Because Sauron dod fear neighter dwarf nor Elf, as both were in decline for a long time now. He feared the strengh of MAN. He remembered when Numenor stept on him like a Bug and he feared mankind for it.
LOTR where the roherrim arrive at minas tirith is based on an actual event, when the winged hussars of Poland reinforced a city under Turkish siege, and charged down from the highlands and broke the siege
Reading about the siege of Vienna and the scale of that one charge will just blow your mind, I think it was 20,000 heavy cavalry charging into 100,000 Turks or something like that.
@@jesuschrist9513 Polish king ordered the cavalry attack in four groups, three Polish and one from the Holy Roman Empire-18,000 horsemen charged down the hills, the largest cavalry charge in history. Sobieski led the charge at the head of 3,000 Polish heavy lancers, the famed "Winged Hussars".
I have never seen any of the Avengers movies, but I have seen that final assemble scene so many times and it always gives me chills and gets me choked up. All of these have that palpable sense of relief that is just indescribable. Great compilation!
I will never not get crazy chills when the whole Endgame gathering happens. Surely will go down in cinematic history as probably the greatest crossover event ever
The Battle of Rohirrim is so epic! Battle of the Bastards had me pumping on my chest like a man watching the NBA finals. But hearing “Avengers Assemble” in theatre as everyone in the crowd roared was truly a time to be alive.
Facts im Bigger lord of the rings and those movies in theaters were huge you can even search it up super huge. But i swear the avengers had me wanting to jump through the screen and fight that mfer thanos
“Avengers … assemble.” Is hard to beat, but King Theoden shouting his speech as he rides across the front of his troops clashing their spears with his sword is unmatched.
Avengers.....retcon! Tolkien knew what he was writing and didn't need to resort to time travel to essentially say "uh wait. No. Scratch that, forget what I wrote. Um, in this timeline Gandalf defeated the balrog but didn't die. Nor did Boromir. And Denethor was excellent in this timeline Impressed?" That's what avengers Rewrite did. It's called retconning.
20 years since “LOTR - The Return to the King” came out. I watched it on the first day of release in NYC even though I had a cold. Magnificent and inspired me to join the VFX industry.
I am unsure of how many actually knows that the Rohirrim Charge at the Battle of Pelenor Fields is likely a historical reference to the Siege of Vienna 1683. - At the time, Vienna was considered the gateway to Europe and it was widely recognized that if it was to fall, the turks would have no problem advancing further into Europe. The turks were MANY more than the force defending Vienna, so a call for aid was sent out and Poland (a mighty force at the time) among others responded and arrived at Vienna with almost 20.000 cavalry! - It was the Polish King Sobieski and The Winged Hussars that in 1683 wrote themselves into history books as the largest ever cavalry charge ever recorded! Try reading through both stories once more and you'll see that despite some differences the similarities of The Siege of Vienna 1683 with Tolkien's Battle of Pelenor Field are striking! Of course the Rohirrim Charge at the Battle of Pelenor Fields is THE charge of cinema history! - Everytime I watch it, I just wish I could relive the first time I watched again and again with the emotions attached while at the cinema! - EPIC!
The Ride of Rohirrim combines several great charges in one gorgeous scene. The charge of the Winged Hussars and other cavalry elements at the Battle of Vienna, the Lighthorseman at Beersheba during WW1 and possibly the Charge of the Light Brigade
"Ride of Rihirrim" Only time in cinematic history when perfection was achieved. This is not just a scene but millions of thoughts coming into mind only if one knows how deep this scene goes
Ride of the Rohirm sound track man.........I can't even explain how there's never been an orchestra arranged in a better way of good vs evil. Makes every scene phenomenal
For those that don't know, the reliefe of Minas Tirith is heavily inspired by one Christian Europe's most important historical reliefs itself. For those that have heard the song "When the winged hussars arrived", it's based on the 1683 siege of Vienna, when 170'000 Ottoman soldiers are sieging the Capital of the Holy Roman Empire, defended only by about 15'000 Austrian soldiers, volunteers and mercenaries. If it were to fall, it would be a mighty blow to the Christian Europe, the Holy league and allow for further Ottoman expansion west and north. The siege were broken after 60 days when a massive relief force of about 90'000 arrived, and the largest cavalry charge in history of about 18'000 hussars broke the Ottoman moral and sent the on a retreat.
Incredible, everytime i see those moment in LOTR i get goosebumps and tears not of sadness, but just a big rush of emotions. Feeling every words spoken by actor Bernard Hill like i was there. RIP to an amazing actor.
I have watched it dozens of times and it still brings a tear to the eye. Even Gandalf's expression when he realizes Rohan really did answer the call. That combined with the moment where Theoden weighs his options back when Aragorn says "The Beacons! The beacons are lit!" and Theoden KNOWS that he could live longer if he didn't answer the call, but decides to anyway, because mankind must stand together... that momentary expression from Gandalf says 'There really is hope for this world, when we can count on each other'.
@@JB-xl2jc exactly. Gandalf’s purpose in the books, and to a slightly lesser extent in the movies, is to unite the people’s of middle earth as “The Grey”. Once he becomes the white he’s the head of the order but still maintains his purpose of unification. That look on his face expresses probably the first time in a long while, at least in the books, that nations of men came together under one unifying purpose. Such a great scene
There's just something about the helpless being cornered with no way out, and an unexpected turn of events saves them. OO!! It just gets me goosebumps.
Ride for rohirrim always get chills watching that. However, that look T’Challa gives Cap after walking through the portal though.. like I see you brother.
Great list buddy .... Watching lord of the rings every Christmas eve for 3yrs with 2 of my best friends who are no longer with us. Always brings me back to better times watching 3 absolutely amazing movies with my buddies . To anyone who never watched them or read the books you are missing out
Hearing "Avengers Assemble" while the whole movie theater was cheering and clapping has got to be my peak cinematic experience of all time. Nothing has ever even come close to that moment.
I know the movies kinda faded away but in The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe I always thought the scene after Azlan comes back from the stone table, and brings in the re-enforcements was such a cool scene
@@Fastwinstondoom the star wars one just made no god damn sense, they what somehow managed to gather every god damn ship in the galaxy of everyone that doesn't like the Empire/First order just in the matter of days/week and all managed to navigate that corridor that either needed a special device or to carefully watch someone else doing it? Really? and they did all that in such a way to arrive barely on time?
@@jsnotlout3312 Flying it himself sure, the rest of it.....I mean not really it's like magic not Star Wars force magic like poof the solution is here magic. It doesn't make any sense. Abrahams ruined so much of that universe when he basically eliminated space travel taking actual time to accomplish, things just instantly happen way too damn much. Luke, Han, Chewey, and the Droids in a New Hope seemed to travel for a while to get to Alderaan and it made sense and it allowed things to happen between places.
Two Towers will never be topped. It's so masterfully shot. Ignoring how impossible it would be for a cavalry charge at such a steep incline... the music, the visual of the sun rising behind them. Just the pure epicness of it all.

Rest in peace, Bernard Hill. Gave some of the greatest speeches in cinematic history. Always got your blood pumping.
The Lotr series is such a classic. No idea why they don't make more high-fantasy movies like that. Don't they know we're burned out on superhero movies T_T
fr bro
True, Super hero movies have turned out into comedy films.....
We are burned out on mediocre, half-assed products....I don't remember the last that I saw a movie that had real effort put into it
Like The Hobbit and the garbage that is "the rings of power" they rely too much on CGI. Back when the original LOTR was made, there were more real casting, costumes and props for sets. Why? Because CGI requires less effort and money. Sadly, the passion to do masterpiece through hardwork comes very few nowadays. That's why we can't have anything like it anymore.
@@saymyname6726 Yep. Medicre shit pays better. Fools enjoy foolish stuff more too, so why bother making high effort stuff? Shame...
"Death!...Death!...DEATH!!!" I've seen that moment hundreds of times, and I still get a rush. Watching beloved characters choosing to face their inevitable destruction with such determination is timeless.
I'm glad to live in modern times but it does pull at my heart that I won't ever arrive with the king's host to save an enbattered enemy with a bro blowing the big fucking horn.
Except its always spoiled by the fact they needn't have bothered since the army of the dead turned up and wiped out the Orcs out without breaking a sweat, and the Rohirrim might as well have stayed in Rohan and got pissed.
@@osric1730 Except the army of the dead were never really there, even in the movie they were a one time use force, when they leave they still need someone to defend Gondor after the fact and face the 10,000+ Orcs left in Mordor, which Gondor's armies combined with Rohan did in the novel.
@@rhinohelix197 They still made the charge of the Rohirrim pointless though didn't they?
@@osric1730not really, there’s a good time gap between the arrival of the Rohirrin and the army of the dead, odds are if they hadn’t shown up the city would already have been lost, it almost was anyway, and Gandalf would certainly have been killed by the Witch King. I don’t think it was made irrelevant by any stretch of the imagination
The amount of hype within the theater during that endgame scene will forever make that scene so fun and exciting to watch never have i experienced something like that. That scene and will that memory gives me chills everytime

@@Suvlaco Yeah sure but theres only one "ever" isnt that true?
It makes my heart warm and my mind at peace knowing that after two decades the LotR trilogy is in the top of the comments, reflecting the everlasting quality of the film and the statement that the class is timeless.
P. S. No need to mention that the LotR scenes give me goosebumps every time.
I'm over here outside by myself getting goosebumps watching Theoden just do his thing. Such a phenomenal actor.
Bernard Hill! 🤩
Phenomenal is exactly right.
He was excellent throughout, and embodied Theoden perfectly.
But his portrayal in RoTK was nothing short of *exceptional!*
The Battle of The Pelennor Fields is one of the greatest moments in cinematic history, but it rests on the back of his performance and wouldn't come close to the same heights without it.
Riding off willingly into almost certain death.
And then as he lay dying, he was glad that he was now worthy to be buried in the company of his brave ancestors before him.
So... powerful...
Bernard Hill as Theoden King was Magnificent; he had come a LONG way since he was the Praetorian guard who named Caligula's goofy uncle Claudius as Emperor in "I, Claudius(1976)! He points to the cringing Claudius, who's hoping to not be killed by the Praetorian Guard who had perforated Caligula moments earlier, "Hey!(in a wonderful, cheesy British accent), He'll make a good emperor...!"
What a classic scene, from a classic movie(a remake of ANOTHER classic movie, made pre-WW2), based on a magnificent classic historical novel. How can you go wrong?
Not that the rides of Rohan have 3 major fights and they have to suffer the most casualties a castle defence with a horse charge in pike then they do it again at the galaden field and finally with Aragon at the black gates to to mention they lost there king there kinda following the heir apparent and there full king with Aragon but still Rohanean had to suffer the most
Theoden King! 😭😭😭
Lord of the Rings trilogy is incomparable. Nothing can ever beat them. Peter Jackson really created not 1 but 3 masterpieces and kept on making them better and more intense. Every character is just incredible, Aragorn like many others is my Favorite. Glad to see these 3 masterpieces which will forever remain the greatest.

Sorry, it was to good I had to use it. Seriously though, fantastic movies, and great books.
There are many movies having plots with deeper meanings. LOTR is a shallow movie when it comes to the depth of the plot. It's a cinematic masterpiece nevertheless.@@vikramsinghchauhan9083
Endgame has its flaws, but Steve Rodgers standing alone, tired and injured, against an army led by Thanos is such a perfect representation of what makes him a hero
That and him holding back the gauntlet are the two most iconic moments of him to me
"to the king!" Gets me everytime. He delivers it in a way that leaves zero doubt, hes going to get to his king and aint a damn thing going to stop him.
I love how Theoden's all like "The horn will sound!", and Gimli's just, "Wicked! That'll be my job!" and he guns it up the stairs to give thathorn a good old Dwarven bwaaah.
The original bwaaaaaaaaaaaaah
I love these comments such bwahhhhhh energy
I searched "best scene reinforcements arrive" thinking I'd have a struggle finding such a thing. Thanks for making this compilation!
Same lol.
Except for LOTR, none of these come close to some of the anime versions "when reinforcements arrive" but a good video nonetheless
Should remove star wars though.
Same i spend like 1h for this
@@ancientslav4863 Yeah those are cartoons you fuckin goof.
The best part of Avengers Endgame for me is when Thanos' entire army appears, countless legions unleashed, and Captain America stands up, straps on his broken shield, and starts limping forward. It's literally an entire galactic army vs. one soldier, and he's ready to go. He can do this all day.
That shot at 5:18 is incredible.
Hell yeah!
True, can't expect much logic from marvel.
Too cartooney for my taste.
We have no proof that Captain wouldn’t have decimated the entire army. He still had some of his shield even.
0:57 Rest in peace Sir, thank you for your amazing work 😊❤
Return of the King had the best reinforcement scenes. not only did we get the Ride of the Rohirrim, but straight after we get an enemy reinforcement with the Haradrim's Mûmakil charge followed by the arrival of Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli with the Dead Men of Dunharrow
Gr8 point
My least favorite thing about Return of the King is the dead army. It makes the battle of Pelennor not feel as worth it, like all the deaths were meaningless because the Army of the Dead shows up right after Rohan. That and what they did to Faramir in the movies. 2 things I didn't like.
That being said, LoTR trilogy are the best movies ever made.
@@N7_Jedi I had the same issue with the army of the dead. They entire city could've fallen and all the people there dead, and the army of the dead still washes over Sauron's forces like a wave and kills them all. It dismisses all the valor beforehand, both of the men of Gondor and men and woman of Rohan ... and hobbits ... and Gandalf ... and horses ... ... ... okay, I think that's it.
That's why in the books they basically can't interact with the corporeal and are there just to spook the enemy.
That battle had so many different plot twists and turning points. I thought Twin Towers was the more emotional movie, especially when Gandolf showed up with the Riders of Rohirrim at the end, but the Battle of Pelennor Fields was a true MasterClass in telling story through huge action set pieces. Marvel's grand scale battles always aspire to be LOTR, but they never quite get there.
The ride of the Rohirrim is the greatest movie scene of all time, and no one can tell me otherwise
But I just want to point out that ..... NAAAHHH you are right😄
agreed
in my opinion there's only 2 scenes something close to rohirrim epicness:
the cliffs fight scene of the last of the Mohicans. No fairy tale fantasy ending, just raw as fuck. No effects, all real, and the music holding the tension high....
And the end of flight club.
That's my top 3

If I remember correctly, the director only let those who read the book be at the front line, because they were the only ones that understood the feeling behind it
One scene i think that should be here, is when Baldwin arrives in Kingdom of Heaven, the line "Jersusalem has come", the shot where you can see them beyond the haze, the soundtrack, and the decisions of both leaders is just so good
It is good but there is no battle happens in the end
@@chucksison9199 theres no need for a battle though, its the execution of dialogue, the atmosphere, the tension between sahladeen and baldwin and their wisdom that prevented a war to break out that would've greatly damaged both sides.
I remember that. I agree, it was just so good. And the way it was played into a talking match- even as a young man I understood how interesting that was
part2 its there
Worst : Star wars, GOT
Middle : Avengers
Best: LOTR
our boy John Snow got squeezed so hard he got literally unplugged 💀
That moment when you realise you are not alone and there are people willing to stand with you, no matter what
"Theoden king stands alone. " "Not alone" such epic scene
truly earns the term - EPIC
ROHIRRIM! TO THE KING!! The thunderous charge of a thousand horses. Magnificent!
Eomer doesnt get enough cred.
He got men so loyal to him that they abandon their king, he is out there doing Good work and then rejoins the king when Rohan needs it.
Oh snap I never saw it like that
They did not really abandon their king, they were banished actually. But yeah creds to Eomer for being such a great leader
He always believed in his king, but he and his men were banished. So they roamed around still protecting rohan
They were loyal to the king and thus they were banished.
“Theoden king stands alone.”
“Not alone.”
Fortunately, it wasn't in the book. Eomer fought with Aragorn and Theoden at Helms Deep. Grimbeorn led the relief expedition (with Gandalf) of the reformed men from the battles at the ford of Isen. Oh, and the Huorns surrounded the Orcs, and no orc made it out from under those trees.
Gandalf was badass man, he literally charged the spear weilding orc front line holding nothing but a staff and whooped ass like it was nothing.
The Charge of the Rohirrim is no doubt the most powerful movie scene ever made. I cry every time I see it. It's just a fucking masterpiece. Theodes speech and the way they all know they're most likely riding to their deaths but still doing it becomes some things just need to happen and Saurun needs to lose. The way they all scream DEATH and run right into the afterlife with a big "FUCK YOU!" written all over their faces. Just downright flawless.
Theoden’s speeches and Rohirrim charge always give me goosebumps no matter how many times I watch the trilogy. The music also accentuates the scenes. LotR is simply timeless.
“On your left.” Soooo many years led up to this one moment.
Bro! both Avengers endgame and Lord of the Rings gives me goosebump!!! I love Game of Thrones but the battle scene in LOTR is in another level!! What a Timeless master piece
One of the things I love about the LOTR is how the most memorable scenes are from ancient history. When they ride out at 2:30 in this video into what they think is certain death, that actually happened during a siege, the knight templars charged out on horseback instead of dying in the fortress, in history they actually all died though, unlike this scene.
The massive horse charge in the same battle down the steep hill and then outside minis tirith? (That big white city, sorry I don't remember the names) That was from our own history too when 18000 heavy horsemen from the Holy Roman Empire charged an Ottoman army of 90000 that was besieging Vienna. Apparently the hill was so steep they charged down that there was no slowing down or stopping once it started, it was biggest cavalry charge in history and sent the Ottoman army into retreat and ended their expansion. The Polish winged Hussar knights had 3000 involved with the charge. I can't even begin to imagine what 18000 knights charging toward you would look like, it would have looked endless.
that is nice, may i ask if what templar battle are you referring to? would like to read up on that
@@paulfajardo713 You mean when they rushed out of the gates into their death? When I wrote this I looked for the exact battle on Google but couldn't find it, it was during one of the crusades during a siege the Crusaders lost. Sorry
Lotr is really untouchable. The first time i saw it i instantly declared it my favorite movie series ever and it still is. Just perfect.
The book is even better, specially the end
LotR is GOAT everywhere and everytime, forever. Trilogy full of the most EPIC scenes in movie history.
I read 15-20 of the comments down below and all of you talked about LOTR!!
It is hard to describe how it feels when you watch your favorite characters from the books come alive on a huge screen! Or just characters (not in the books). Some stories and epic scenes stay with you forever if the Director and Composer did a good job. You watch it again and again and the hunger to see it again only intensifies. The music only adds to the scenes and all the HAIR on the body stands up, saluting for a job well done!
Like you guys, I've seen the first 3 LOTR countless times and no matter how many more times I will watch it again, it never get's boring. It took over 4 months for the CGI team to get that battle scene.
Rest in peace, Theoden King.
I could watch Two Towers and ROTK over and over.
Theoden’s speeches just get my adrenaline pounding.
Best of the 3 in my opinion
My sister and I watched the two towers about 15 times - I remember we were standing in line to buy tickets to see it again and finally noticed they had removed it from the lineup…
Saruman mocked him as 'a lesser Kingof greater Sires'..".. Theoden died, on the field of battle, as a féarless Leader, commanding the Rohirrim through the onslaught of Sauron's Orc Legions, and even the Haradrim... to be bested by none less then the King of the Nazgul...who was defeated, along his Nazgul mount, by Eowen!
Theoden would be go down in history as one of the greatest Kings of Rohan!
Saruman was wrong abotu a great many things, but his greatest error was his misjudgement of Theoden of Rohan!
Battle of helms deep will go down as one of the most epic fights in movie history.
Then the mad lad Peter Jackson did it again with the ride of the rohirrim.
Absolutely top class cinema.
No matter how old they are no matter how many times we watch them Lotr series will always give the best goosebumps. such epic moments!
One of the powers of Gandalf's ring Narya was to evoke hope and courage in others when it all seemed lost; it was awesome to see all of it play out in realtime filling Aragorn and Theoden with hope and courage just as dawn was close and as Gandalf was approaching.
You see why Sauron went to great lengths to keep the king weak. His bravery grew by the second once he was reawakened .
Because Sauron dod fear neighter dwarf nor Elf, as both were in decline for a long time now. He feared the strengh of MAN. He remembered when Numenor stept on him like a Bug and he feared mankind for it.
Because Theoden had allies that believed in him
How many times you gonna post the same comment looking for attention
@@hannesromhild8532elves where very much still a problem for Sauron. Lorien would not fall without himself and the one ring going there for a example.
hope everyone doing good and staying safe. If you need to talk to someone or need help, there are people who care. Sending support and hearts. ❤❤❤❤❤
LOTR where the roherrim arrive at minas tirith is based on an actual event, when the winged hussars of Poland reinforced a city under Turkish siege, and charged down from the highlands and broke the siege
Reading about the siege of Vienna and the scale of that one charge will just blow your mind, I think it was 20,000 heavy cavalry charging into 100,000 Turks or something like that.
@@williampoole1742 wasnt its like 5000 cavalry with 15000 land troops in support?
@@jesuschrist9513 Polish king ordered the cavalry attack in four groups, three Polish and one from the Holy Roman Empire-18,000 horsemen charged down the hills, the largest cavalry charge in history. Sobieski led the charge at the head of 3,000 Polish heavy lancers, the famed "Winged Hussars".
So Turks = Orcs ?
I'm fine with that Statement.
@@williampoole1742no no 10.000.000 turk vs 20.000 polish
I have never seen any of the Avengers movies, but I have seen that final assemble scene so many times and it always gives me chills and gets me choked up. All of these have that palpable sense of relief that is just indescribable. Great compilation!
The speech(es) of Theoden and the coming of Eomer are like a punch in the chest every time. Simply fantastic
Theoden the man with the greatest pre battle hype speaches .He is the mvp from this least .
Aragorn was on par wit his black gate speech imo
King shit.
Theoden when the Oliphants came. "Sound the charge take them head on!" I'm in
Five most perfect words ever written for Fantasy Fiction: "Rohan had come at last."
A rush all over my body when I see humanity coming together for a single cause,
And damn,
The last avengers scene got a single tear off me.
😮💨🤌🏿🔥💯
I will never not get crazy chills when the whole Endgame gathering happens. Surely will go down in cinematic history as probably the greatest crossover event ever
The charge of the Rohirrim would've never happened if Pippin had not lit the first beacon. Well done, Pippin!
The Battle of Rohirrim is so epic! Battle of the Bastards had me pumping on my chest like a man watching the NBA finals. But hearing “Avengers Assemble” in theatre as everyone in the crowd roared was truly a time to be alive.
Facts im Bigger lord of the rings and those movies in theaters were huge you can even search it up super huge. But i swear the avengers had me wanting to jump through the screen and fight that mfer thanos
The fist half of that movie tho was so ass
When Cap picked up Molnir too was an epic part of the movie…but the Ride of the Rohirrim? 🫶🏽🥹🥹🥹🤯🤯🤯
The ride of the Rohirim is cinematic gold! RIP Bernard Hill
“Avengers … assemble.” Is hard to beat, but King Theoden shouting his speech as he rides across the front of his troops clashing their spears with his sword is unmatched.
Lotr here is a few hundred leagues ahead
Avengers.....retcon! Tolkien knew what he was writing and didn't need to resort to time travel to essentially say "uh wait. No. Scratch that, forget what I wrote. Um, in this timeline Gandalf defeated the balrog but didn't die. Nor did Boromir. And Denethor was excellent in this timeline Impressed?" That's what avengers Rewrite did. It's called retconning.
Theoden's speech when they arrive at Gondor always gives me goosebumps. Bernard Hill outdid himself with one.
20 years since “LOTR - The Return to the King” came out. I watched it on the first day of release in NYC even though I had a cold. Magnificent and inspired me to join the VFX industry.
The endgame 'avengers assemble' was so good❤..everyone in the cinema hall jumped our of their chairs
He’d never say it out loud but Cap turns around and looks at Thanos with “let’s fucking go” energy.
I am unsure of how many actually knows that the Rohirrim Charge at the Battle of Pelenor Fields is likely a historical reference to the Siege of Vienna 1683. - At the time, Vienna was considered the gateway to Europe and it was widely recognized that if it was to fall, the turks would have no problem advancing further into Europe.
The turks were MANY more than the force defending Vienna, so a call for aid was sent out and Poland (a mighty force at the time) among others responded and arrived at Vienna with almost 20.000 cavalry! - It was the Polish King Sobieski and The Winged Hussars that in 1683 wrote themselves into history books as the largest ever cavalry charge ever recorded!
Try reading through both stories once more and you'll see that despite some differences the similarities of The Siege of Vienna 1683 with Tolkien's Battle of Pelenor Field are striking!
Of course the Rohirrim Charge at the Battle of Pelenor Fields is THE charge of cinema history! - Everytime I watch it, I just wish I could relive the first time I watched again and again with the emotions attached while at the cinema! - EPIC!
Thanks for that history lesson. Truly awesome to show that real life can sometimes be more potent than fantasy!
And there is a vodka named in his honour
For those who don't know it, look up the song Winged Hussars by Sabaton
The Ride of Rohirrim combines several great charges in one gorgeous scene. The charge of the Winged Hussars and other cavalry elements at the Battle of Vienna, the Lighthorseman at Beersheba during WW1 and possibly the Charge of the Light Brigade
That’s not cavalry. That’s mounted infantry.
mostly the wingged hussars as the numbers are quite close as well 15000 horsemen and 3000 winged hussars against 100000 otommoans
Or even the "Charge of the Scots Greys" at Waterloo ... or even the attack by the French Cavalry, on the Allied (British, Dutch & German) squares.
I always wonder if helms klamm is just the siege of vienna. Also because of the explosives under the wall.
def not charge of the light brigade, that was a total s--tshow.
The passing of the great Bernard Hill brought me here. So happy you included his scene in this as this is what I was hoping for when I saw the title.

Trilogy
Ride of the Rohirm sound track man.........I can't even explain how there's never been an orchestra arranged in a better way of good vs evil. Makes every scene phenomenal
For those that don't know, the reliefe of Minas Tirith is heavily inspired by one Christian Europe's most important historical reliefs itself. For those that have heard the song "When the winged hussars arrived", it's based on the 1683 siege of Vienna, when 170'000 Ottoman soldiers are sieging the Capital of the Holy Roman Empire, defended only by about 15'000 Austrian soldiers, volunteers and mercenaries. If it were to fall, it would be a mighty blow to the Christian Europe, the Holy league and allow for further Ottoman expansion west and north. The siege were broken after 60 days when a massive relief force of about 90'000 arrived, and the largest cavalry charge in history of about 18'000 hussars broke the Ottoman moral and sent the on a retreat.
these scenes will always be my favourite, the moment of instant goosebumps, the moment of Theoden, the moment of Cap, the moment of a true leader
I get choked up on the Battle for Middle Earth every time during Theodin’s last speech.
Incredible, everytime i see those moment in LOTR i get goosebumps and tears not of sadness, but just a big rush of emotions. Feeling every words spoken by actor Bernard Hill like i was there. RIP to an amazing actor.
Theodan quite simply woke up and decided, Imma be a chad real quick
last one will always give me chills ! to this day, best army arrival scene. I especially love the sound of horns and the main theme !
Watch the behind scenes of that scene you will be shocked
I have watched it dozens of times and it still brings a tear to the eye. Even Gandalf's expression when he realizes Rohan really did answer the call. That combined with the moment where Theoden weighs his options back when Aragorn says "The Beacons! The beacons are lit!" and Theoden KNOWS that he could live longer if he didn't answer the call, but decides to anyway, because mankind must stand together... that momentary expression from Gandalf says 'There really is hope for this world, when we can count on each other'.
@@JB-xl2jc All 3 Movies from the Hobbit and Lotr are master piece the serial they did is ok but the movies were better

That look on his face expresses probably the first time in a long while, at least in the books, that nations of men came together under one unifying purpose. Such a great scene

There is just such an epicness to the LoTR movies. The sound track and everything gives it such weight. They still hold up so well, too.
1000% - pure magic!
I don’t think the LOTR trilogy will ever be topped.

What I like about lotr is that the movies and books are so different yet they are both amazing.
so you get 2 amazing trilogies in one trilogy.

With the exception of that first film, all great clips!
Me and Theoden could be facing the armies of Mordor alone and he'd still be able to inspire me.
Lord of the rings was a forever masterpiece
Two Towers will never be topped. It's so masterfully shot. Ignoring how impossible it would be for a cavalry charge at such a steep incline... the music, the visual of the sun rising behind them. Just the pure epicness of it all.
