Cool Best Scene in Return of the King

Well, i just went to see the Lord of the Rings Return of the King. Man that was some movie,,,, 3.5hours long. Well just wanted to know what item or scene really made you go... Is that CG??? Man thats Real?

For me the ultamite will be the Legolas on top of the elephant and the witch king flying.

the part with the eagles, that was nice
but the whole movie was cool, one thing i thought that was not so great when the elf was just standing on the back of the elephant like it was nothing, that was kinda.... ya know, but the movie was awsome

one of my favorite scenes is the one when gandalf says "defend the gates whatever comes in" and then these 3 trolls with klubbs and armour enters, *drools* but the favorite one is when the riders of rohan plunges into the battle

The miniatures (or "big"atures I might should say ) blow me away in these 3 films, Minis Tirith being jaw-dropping. Not exactly CG, I imagine, but I'd have to call them the most impressive aspects of the films in my opinion.

Definitely. They seem to have managed the perfect marriage of CGI and minatures in theie depiction of Minas Tirith. The fact that on the flyby scenes there's so much CG thats been added to the plate to lend that illusion its a real city at no point did I look and think "That's a model".

On the other hand, the original Tim Burton Batman movie was showing on TV last night and rewatching some of the scenes in that now has me thinking "That's a minature ... thats another ... that sucks ..."

I agree with voices, my favorite scene is when the rohirrim charges in to battle.

The best scene is when it ended!
This film was terrible - ONLY the first movie was good!

ROTK wasn't as good as the first two, but it was still OK. The orcs seemed so easy to kill in ROTK.

Oh my favorite scene is the same as Voices and Digi's.
