With that the three hunters plunged into the forest of Fangorn. Legolas and Gimli left the tracking to Aragorn.

‘Deeds will not be less valiant because they are unpraised.’
I’d have been fine with Gandalf being a compete dick, so long as he made a legitimate point.
Gandalf’s Counsel: what would it look like he’s trying to do? (9/49)
So Billy Boyd was at a con near me, and of course I went to hear him speak. And he was asked if any of the lines in Lord of the Rings were improvised. He said that when you’re working with a script that good, you try to stick as close to it as possible. Except one line. He told us that he improvised the line, “The closer we are to danger, the farther we are from harm,” and to this day he’s still trying to work out what he meant by that.
I'M SO READY FOR THIS!!!
Okay I know we always go on about Marvel’s uncanny casting ability.
But if you thought they were the only ones, let me draw your attention to this man:
Viggo Mortensen, aka Aragorn son of Arathorn, aka Sexiest Ranger in Middle Earth
- would hike, often for more than a day, to remote filming locations, in costume, for the sake of authenticity
- was the best swordsman Bob Anderson (swordsmaster/instructor for LotR, Pirates of the Caribbean, etc) says he has ever trained
- occasionally writes poetry (more book!canon than film!canon but um hello)
- does all his own stunts
- lived all over and speaks about 23940209384 languages
- you know that scene at the end of Fellowship when he’s fighting the Uruk-hai? And one throws a dagger at him and he hits it away with his sword? Yeah, the guy who threw it was supposed to miss, but accidentally threw it directly at Viggo. Who just casually Aragorned and hit it away.
They actually cast Aragorn to play Aragorn

I totally miss read fighting as fucking and turned that entire last point into something completely different.
Ok, now I have a mental image of Aragorn fucking an Uruk-hai. Thanks for that.

RRROOOAAAARGHHHHH
Hold your ground! Hold your ground!
Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers,
I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.
A day may come when the courage of men fails,
when we forsake our friends
and break all bonds of fellowship,
but it is not this day.
An hour of wolves and shattered shields,
when the age of men comes crashing down,
but it is not this day!
This day we fight!!
By all that you hold dear on this good Earth,
I bid you stand, Men of the West!!!

“I said to Viggo, ‘I’m gonna put the camera down the hillside a little bit. Can you try to kick the helmet close to the lens? Because it will look great if it just flies past us.’”
