Chance Encounter/Awesome

• Oh so many.
• From the first one:
  • Boromir taking an arrow for Balian at the falls of Rauros. It becomes something of an unfunny Running Gag throughout the series.
  • Balian surviving being skewered by a spear at the Battle of the Black Gate.
• From the Second installment:
  • Legolas versus Achilles on the beach of Troy.
  • Balian holding his own against Achilles, who is easily on Legolas' level.
  • Legolas using a pistol.
  • Balian MacGyvering a working trebuchet. In the bronze age. On short notice.
  • The mere existence of Captains Sparrow and Barbossa.
