Confrontations between magical beings of LotR are rare, but they all follow a similar set of rules: one being (often Gandalf) declares something as a fact ('you shall not pass' 'your staff is broken' 'you cannot enter here') and that *knowledge* is borne out.
The bridge breaks, the staff shatters, the horns call the Witch king away and he falls. Magical beings in LotR show their power by declaring a truth about the world and having the world reflect - even shift and change - to match that truth.
The Witch King calls Gandalf a fool, and he is wrong. Gandalf says, "You cannot enter here." And he is right. /end
I would strongly recommend you read The Raven Tower - the idea of small-t truth being at the core of a magical being’s power is central (and besides, it’s just an amazing book)
I've long felt there's a deep connection between the speech act (making something true by saying it: "class dismissed", "you're hired", "I now pronounce you..." etc.) and magic in folklore/fiction. An extrapolation of the authority that allows one to do a speech act.
I suspect Jackson and co thought that this wasn’t cinematic. But it’s sooo much cooler than two old guys throwing each other into walls.
