The Lord of the Rings - ''You Have No Power Here''

The Lord of the Rings - ''You Have No Power Here''

"Scene from ''The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers''. Gandalf frees Theoden.

Gandalf: Théoden, Son of Théngel. Too long have you sat in the shadows.

Gandalf: Harken to me! I release you from the spell.

Théoden: You have no power here Gandalf the Grey." from the video introduction


Why Does Théoden Call Gandalf “Stormcrow”?

"In the second film installment of The Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers, when we first visited the kingdom of Rohan, something quite unusual happened. When Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas entered the king’s castle along with Gandalf, they were asked to submit their weapons before they could appear before the king. Then the sickly king, who could not even recognize his son, said something that we only heard only once in the whole series. He said, “Why should I welcome you, Gandalf Stormcrow.” So why does Théoden call Gandalf “Stormcrow”?

It can be said that Gandalf was the storm of death that was coming for Théoden. In the whole film and book series, only Théoden, the king of Rohan, has ever called him Gandalf Stormcrow. He was only referred by that name once in the films and three times in books.

Let us get to the bottom of why does Théoden call Gandalf Stormcrow, what does it mean, and why Gandalf has no memories of Moria..." from the article: Why Does Théoden Call Gandalf “Stormcrow”?
