Peter Jackson, You Messed This Up: Aragorn’s Greatest Scene Was Sadly Never in the Lord of the Rings Proving He Was a God Among Men

Peter Jackson gave us an epic Lord of the Rings trilogy, but he dropped the ball on this one. Aragorn had a scene so insanely badass that it would’ve put every other moment in the movies to shame. And yet… it never made the cut. Seriously, how do you sideline something that proves the guy was basically a god among men?

Book fans know exactly what’s missing, and let’s just say, it’s a crime against Middle-earth. Jackson nailed a lot, but skipping this feels like a fumble even Sauron would laugh at. Time to talk about what could’ve been.
