The eagle Gwaihir coming out of the gloom behind Saruman to rescue Gandalf and the look on Gandalf's face when he see's the moth messenger return.
The torn banner of Rohan as it lies in the grass in front of Edoras.
Wormtongue's expression as he looks at Eowyn.
Shadowfax's arrival.
Theoden's pre battle recital.
Shelob sneaking up behind Frodo (nearly made me jump out of my seat!)
The eagles suddenly appearing out of the firestorm to rescue Frodo and Sam.
Frodo's last look back on his friends at the Havens.
Magic stuff, all of it.
