don’t kill it number 10 Aragorn vs. hour
on the Lord of the Rings The Return of
the King and we also felt that Aragorn
has come this distance with his journey
and the sound 1 is his enemy and that we
had to somehow have this personal jewel

a little when originally putting the
film together Peter Jackson and company
had the idea of a final showdown pitting
Aragorn head-to-head against Sauron

Aragorn to fight instead of the Dark
