I voted for Gandalf's, though my favourite speeches are not on the list. I think that Sam's speech was good, but not at all in line with the books.

Aragorn's speech all the way... makes me cry buckets and it's so full of passion and hope. I also love Sam's speech in TTT not at the very end, but when they are at Osgiliath. Another tear-jerker, though not with the books at all.

I absolutely loved Sam's speech. It was great...but also true at the same time. Very nice!

My fave is Aragorn's speech, it's one of those scenes where you really see him as a King, and I love him so much in it. Not that I don't in the rest of the movie :P

I voted for Sam, because it is the most impressive speach, it is important for Frodo to carry on. But there are many other speaches I really like, one of them is Gandalf's speach about what happens after death, and also Aragorn's speach at the Black Gate.

all the three are beautiful speeches and I find something in all that is human and holy at the same time. My fave is Gandalf's one because I think it is so real even though we often forget his words in our real lives. He remembers me to listen to his words

Um, it is in line with the books. Can't remeber exactly where it is though.

Me too. Gandalf's isn't really a "speech," but it has a powerful message. And Sam's (in Osgiliath) is just so moving - and a part I remembered from the books.

It's on the Stairs of Cirith Ungol, they talk about the great stories. I just love that part. And Aragorn's speech in front of the black gate always gives me the chills...even just thinking of it right now. :blush: Because of all the courage, and despair, and hope that goes into it.
:'( They're all so moving...

I really like them all but Aragorn's is my favourite. Sam's is so sad whereas I find Aragorn's really stirring. I also love Theoden's speech ..."now for wrath, now for ruin and the world's ending"...

I love Sam's little speech about stories, and it's actually been quite inspirational to me when I am going through tough times. But I must say, Aragorn's speech gets my vote.
