My brother recently introduced me to "The War Of The Rohirrm" when I visited him recently and holy shit! I really enjoyed it! I was not expecting anything from an animated spin off movie from the Lord of the Rings universe but I was so delightfully surprised. I'm still thinking about that movie a few weeks later.

I also think it did a great job of being it's own story without needing to lean on the lotr success. It would have been a good movie even if it wasn't related to lotr but they just use its relation to deepen the world building.

Love this bit about Sam scaring an orc in Cirith Ungol:

"For what it saw was not a small frightened hobbit trying to hold a steady sword: it saw a great silent shape, cloaked in a grey shadow, looming against the wavering light behind; in one hand it held a sword, the very light of which was a bitter pain, the other was clutched at its breast, but held concealed some nameless menace of power and doom."
