J, I watch films with very little restraint. I think it's a decade-old holdover from my father, who had no idea what to do with us post-divorce and cheerfully decided: "CINEMA. BOWLING. ALSO, CINEMA."
And good lines--they're addictive. Do you find sometimes that you see something twice and words from it will just... will not go away?
Theoden's speech: YES. "A sword day, a red day..."
I love Aragorn later on, too--"...when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But it is not this day!"--but I think Theoden's hope for glory--here, and more despairingly at Helm's Deep, is chilling.
AHH, GEEKDOM.
The image of Anthony Hopkins came to me before the face mask, I'll admit, but it's Silence of the Lambs?
