Frodo and Sam are trekking to Mordor to destroy the One Ring of Power while Gimli, Legolas and Aragorn search for the orc-captured Merry and Pippin. All along, nefarious wizard Saruman awaits the Fellowship members at the Orthanc Tower in Isengard.
This movie contains 33 potentially triggering events.
Denethor is abusive towards his son Faramir and even says he should have died instead of his other son. He later tries to burn hinself and Faramir who he believes to be dead even though he is told that his son is still alive
Tectically yes because Arwen, an immortal elf is a few thousand years old, while Aragorn, a human is only about 90. That doesn‘t really matter though because they are a very healthy couple and both are very mature.
Eowyn may be a little younger than Aragorn, but her love for him is noch reciprocated
After being possesed, Theoden regains his memories and he says to Eowyn “I know you, you’re Eowyn”. This happens twice, the secont time right before gis death. Even though he doesn’t forget her, this might still trigger some people
Smeagol/Gollum strangles his friend Deagol to death in the beginning of the third movie and he also attackes the hobbits with his hands on their throats
Boromir dies, Gandalf is dead but comes back later, Theoden dies, Saruman dies (only in the extended version), Gollum dies and a couple of other not as important characters die as well
Male characters cry all the time. It is never shamed. There is no toxic masculinity in this movie, male characters are allowed to show all kinds of emotions and also show their affection towards one another
Faramir was emotionally and psychologically abused by Denethor his whole life, and Boromir was abused through Golden Child Syndrome. There isn’t a child abuse category, so I’ll put this here just in case.
Faramir is frequently emotionally abused by his father, Denethor. Denethor even goes so far as to say that he wishes Faramir had died in place of his other son.
An adult child dies. We do not know him but we see his father’s grief and he comments “No parent should have to see their child die”. (Given that no one else has commented on this it is possible it is only shown in the extended version as this is the only version I have seen.)
Tecnically Theoden is the uncle of Eomer and Eowyn, but he is a father figure for them and his death is very tragic especially for Eowyn who is with him when he dies
Ringwraiths, who resemble empty cloaks and armor riding black warhorses. The Dead Men of Dunharrow, who are neon-green spectres who alternate between freshly dead" and "skeleton."
In the end Frodo is successful at destroying the ring, Sairon is defeated, Aragorn is king and reunited with Arwen, Sam marries, Frodo writes down his story and there is peace in middle earth.
It is still sad though because Frodo can’t return to a normal life and decides to go with Gandalf, Bilbo and the Elves to leave middle earth forewer. Sam and the other hobbits are very upset about that, while Frodo is happy
