What an insightful post. I stumbled upon it on my "friends of friends" page, and don't feel I can miss the opportunity to add you to my own friends list. Some of the things I've thought before (like recognizing that we are the orcs from certain points of view), but it wouldn't have occurred to me to compare this film with Theoden's ballad. At least not until I saw it, and assuming that it is in fact as respectful as it's supposed to be.
