The Lord of the Rings. I get goosebumps every time.
Reply with your favorite moment. There’s lots of them in the trilogy.
Aragorn’s speech at the Black Gate.. hmm or maybe when Elrond gives Anduril to Aragorn.. or most scenes Gandalf is in
"You are soldiers of Gondor! No matter what comes through that gate you will stand your ground!"
Grond boops his way through the gate.
Armoured Olog-hai push through wrecking the place.

GROND!
So many great ones in this trilogy.
and
get me every time.
I can't carry it for you Mr.Frodo... BUT I CAN CARRY YOU!
Hell yes. I remember watching that during the premiere in theaters many years ago, and it was so emotional and powerful. Fucking love these movies so much.
Gandalf at the end of the battle of Helm's Deep
This isn’t an “all hope is lost” moment in the movies, but I have to bring it up anyway.
Aragorn bursts into the throne room, “The beacons have been lit! Gondor calls for aid.”
Commence 30 seconds of silent anticipation.
Théoden, King of Rohan: “And Rohan will answer.”
Hell yeah!
I think he's referring to the last battle where everyone basically agrees that they are all doomed unless Frodo is still alive and has the ring so they decide since all hope is lost, they'll put all their men on the front line in the hope of buying Frodo an opportunity to get to Mt Doom. But I think most of them only go along with it because they know they are pretty much gonna die either way.
LotR movies never fail to give me the chills even from static jpeg memes lol
