If it hadn't been for Peter Jackson, I would never been inspired to read the Lord Of The RIngs all over again seeing that I hadn't read the books since I was in high school and that was a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..and oops wrong story--LOL---I loved the movies and each on had perhaps sad scenes in them...but none brought sadder emotions than Return Of The King, the third and final movie. Yes there were other tearjerker moments, like when the two exhausted Hobbits, Frodo and Sam are so close to Mount Doom to finally get rid of the ring..but Frodo is near death...and Sam says..."Then let's be done with it, once and for all...I can't carry it for you...but I can carry you." Yes, that was a sad point...but what really turned on the tears was the very end...when Frodo is leaving not only The Shire, but Middle Earth to go Into The West..never to return, never to see the Shire again, never to go to the Green Dragon again, never to see Sam, Merry and Pippin ever again...I just couldn't stop crying..not even now after all this time...I even cry when I listen to the soundtrack and it reaches that point of farewells
So...........did Return of the King make you cry as well...or am I just a wimp?

Hello there!!
Of course the last movie made me cry! Damn, I was really crying, even if I've watched it so many times. Ahahahaha! Of course the other two movies also have moving and tearjerking moments too. And yes, the last part of the movie was the one that made me cry the most. It was when Frodo was going to leave together with Gandalf, Bilbo and the elves. When Gandalf called Frodo, the other three, Pippin, Sam and Merry were all surprised. Waaaaaahhhhh... And then Sam said, "..you can't leave..." Waaaahhh *Tears* Man! It really made me cry... Then Frodo hugs them all, then he gives the book to Sam and said, "The last pages are for you Sam.." Damn... Farewells do make people cry.. I just love The Lord of the Rings!! The greatest epic movie ever!!

"How do you pick up the threads of a life?" That line haunts me.
