It's straight from the books you faggot.

A cold voice answered: ‘Come not between the Nazgûl and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in thy turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shrivelled mind be left naked to the Lidless Eye.’
A sword rang as it was drawn. ‘Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may.’
‘Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!’
Then Merry heard of all sounds in that hour the strangest. It seemed that Dernhelm laughed, and the clear voice was like the ring of steel. ‘But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund’s daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him.’
>>
I don't even think the line is meant to be interpreted in an sjw way. Hackson just found a way to quip at this moment and went with it.
>>
>>70426924
He died because Merry stabbed him with a dagger made by elves to combat wraiths
>>
>>70426884
>Bad CG of Legolas mounting that horse
yeah wtf was that

>>70426924
Technically he could have been killed by elfs, orcs, dwarfs, hobbits, wizards, etc. So he really wasn't that strong if you think about it
>>
>>70426987
Damn, that's even more cringy.

Neither in the books nor in the movies is actually told exactly what's the truth in that "no man can kill the Witch King". I think it's just a rumor among the humans. The Witch King is no indestructible, he's just very strong, so he seems unharmable.

Eowyn kills him, but maybe even a man could have killed him if he had the chance.

The goddamn Witch King doesn't die because she's a woman, he dies because Merry has a goddamn magic sword specifically designed to make him mortal. Eowyn would have died without Merry.

You're right, but the "she gave me three!" part of the extended cut is brilliant, and even better when you realize Galadriel wouldn't give one of her hairs to Fëanor, the greedy bastard.

this.

One great scene in the Extended Cut that they left out was Ewoyn's cooking skills. she's a formidible shield maiden but fucking sucks at cooking. I think it's the same scene where Aragon says he rode to war with Theoden like 40 years ago or something.

>>70427928

What? How fucking old is he?

Wouldn't be surprised if Viggo made her cook some vile shit and then ate it on film and that was his actual reaction.

He's long lived, he's like 80+ circa LOTR

>>70427971
He's a Númenórean. That means, deep down in his DNA, he's got Maiar and Elf.

He's really fucking old, because he can get away with it.

You could easily just say that he was able to do that because Gandalf also has magic. The same reason Gandalf uses magic against them and the Balrog but not against regular foe. Easy fix.

And when you hear the Rohirrim's horns right after the Witch King KOs Gandalf, that's easily the biggest chill bumps of the trilogy

this is the scene; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGdp5_12zW0
probably cut (as the other guy mentioned) because it's inconsistent with their established powerlevels, WK wouldn't be able to break gandalf's staff

As Sauron grows in power, so do they. By the time of FOTR Sauron was still preparing his war, probing his enemies here and there, sending out envoys, simply playing the diplomatic game. Now when he heard from Gollum about The Shire, he sent the Nazgul as undercover hunters. Not to overwhelm others through force but to find the Ring. Fighting was secondary.

By ROTK he was almost at full power (the Ring was obviously needed to reach his full potential.) and thus their power had grown as well. They were also needed as his field commanders, he also bestowed some of his sorcery on them.

>The drums rolled and rattled. With a vast rush Grond was hurled forward by huge hands. It reached the Gate. It swung. A deep boom rumbled through the City like thunder running in the clouds. But the doors of iron and posts of steel withstood the stroke.

>Then the Black Captain rose in his stirrups and cried aloud in a dreadful voice, speaking in some forgotten tongue words of power and terror to rend both heart and stone.

>Thrice he cried. Thrice the great ram boomed. And suddenly upon the last stroke the Gate of Gondor broke. As if stricken by some blasting spell it burst asunder: there was a flash of searing lightning, and the doors tumbled in riven fragments to the ground.

You guys are misinterpreting the whole scene, probably because you haven't read the books.
In the book Glorfindel is at a battle with the Witch King and when some other elf tries to attack Glorfindel stops him and says 'not by the hand of man will he fall,' or something. The Witch King heard and took this to mean he was invincible. But Glorfindel wasn't laying protection on the Witch King, he was merely predicting the future. So it's not that a man literally couldn't kill him, just that no man would.

I love that scene OP. Rohan and Eowyn in particular are great.
Come on, all men flee when facing a Nazgul except Aragorn who faced all 9... but Eowyn... she killed the strongest one proving her temple. Even Legolas and all his matrix bullshit could not achieve that.

Litteraly every clip with Legolas made with painfully obvious shitty CGI that turned him into a one-man army and a 13 years old girl's dreamboy was way worse than that one.
He made all the others look fucking useless with his skateboard-shield or his "one on one" take against the oliphant.

Eowyn killing the Witch-King was written as such in the books and they made it look as decent as they could.

The books are wonderful but people take them as something entirely different to what they are meant to be. The films were a great spectacle

>I AM NO MAN

It didn't even make sense. "Man" was simply the name of their race in the LotR universe.

I liked the scene. It's was nice to watch a movie without all the SJW bullshit in the back of your mind. LOTR could not exist as is today.
