This is fan space, so here is the most relevant response I can muster. Theoden's speech "Fear No Darkness!" gets me each time, and the clip shows Merry's and Eowyn's fear as real, graphic terror and dread and conviction to go forward. It also shows Eomer at his berserker best. I do my best to fear no darkness.

It's a great scene, isn't it? The viewer feels a visceral fear and then resolve to go forward - it's inspiring, to me, as fiction ever gets.

It really is. And that's very true -- you definitely feel the fear of the characters, but also their determination and their drive to go forward. It's one of the best scenes in the film, really.
