Yup!!! That is from Dark Kingdom: The Dragon King, which I recommend, if you avoid looking at the swords LOL but she was very very good and would have made, imo, a great Eowyn!

That is precisely what I thought,Ken! 8)

"....would have made, imo, a great Eowyn!"


The sword she was holding in another pic did look too narrow,
what I could see of the hilt looked ok but the blade was off. However I like her armour...It gave me a bit of an idea. She is beautiful though 8)

Yeah the big sword in the movie was aluminum, looked god-awful on film, but they really went out of the way on her garb and armor. I always thought Miranda Otto was miscast; she did have a good shining moment in ROTK, but I think she was too old for Eowyn.

Yeah, too old and may the LOTR Gods forgive me for saying it, but also too plain, even the lady Galadriel could've been better cast, Arwen was the only beauty in that film IMO, her beauty and range of expression made her the best cast actress in the film.

Now that I think back on it, I'll have to agree with your assessment R.D. Galadriel was supposed to be so beautiful that Gimli the DWARF (neat given the relationships of Elves and Dwarves) was willing to whip Eomer over her.
