Aragorn(to a huge army): "I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me(?). The 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!"

Ugh...here's to hoping its not some lame "Braveheart" type of speech. Imitation is NOT the sincerest form of flattery. Otherwise the film looks to be awesome!

Jackson sticks pretty close to the Tolkien quotes for that kind of address. Thing might be though -- since Tolkien wrote so much from real historical events, which one is the imitation; the Braveheart or the ROTK? Has the director of Braveheart read Tolkien?
