Aragorn vs Lurtz was a good scene from the films, especially as it was at the culmination of a long fight sequence involving most of the Fellowship. It gave the film a great climax.

Lurtz was a good character in the film and gave the fight a focus and counter-point after the loss of Merry and Pippin - a minor victory after a disastrous encounter.

Different balance and mass to a hand-and-a-half/two-handed sword altogehter, so different fighting style required.

...Back on topic, I prefer Shelob vs. Sam- he did very well against near-impossible odds.

I like either Aragorn vs. Lurtz or the wizard fight at Orthanc.



And as for the whole fencing thing, one of the wraiths uses a longsword with a small whole to put the pointer finger through, which would have the sword being held with a more fencing posture. Sure it's not a fencing rapier, but it's a longsword used to fence with.

I voted for Aragorn Vs. The Nine. Becuase he did that cool fencing (I fence) sword fight and he was fighting with fire!
