THAT ARAGORN............

HE SCREAMED BECAUSE......
@@Mert_Yanik HE BROKE
HE ACTUALLY....
Doesn't know Frodo's name by the second movie but manages to be one of only like 3 reactors in history to correctly assess the fell beasts as NOT being dragons
I am conflicted 🤣
Dudes played Witcher for sure 😆
@@greekschmikeyeaa :D
He actialy aways calls him Frodo but then immediately corects it to Fredo.
Jeegus FREDO stop it😂
If you mispronounce "Intellectually" or even "Onomatopoeia", then I'd understand. But I genuinely don't know how you can mispronounce "Frodo" and "Saruman".
Gandalf battled the balrog for almost a week. From the bottom of the depths up the stairs to the highest tower. Absolutely epic fight.
It was more than a week it was 10 days.
as a kid I actually thought that they fell so far down they ended up on top of another world below Middle-Earth
@@blueshit199me too 😂 and I like it like that
“I’m surprised there’s no memes of that.“ Oh man, you don’t even know.
2:15
A lot people think sam didnt make the knot right
But this is elv rope
Once you finished youre task the knot will release itself
Making it possible to take the rope with you again.
Also sam got this rope cause his gamgee family is a well known family for creating very good ropes.
Only sam and his dad i guess it was that decided to be gardener.
At 4:30 the movie doesn't spell it out, but in the book, the Orc-band that have captured Merry and Pippin comprise three separate tribes of Orcs. The small ones ("Why can't we have some meat?") are from Moria and have come to avenge their folk. The middle-sized ones ("Do they give good sport?") are from Mordor and are trying to take the Hobbits to Sauron. The large ones ("They are not for eating!") are Saruman's Uruk-hai and are taking the Hobbits to Isengard. In the book, the three tribes are constantly bickering with one another. These differences don't matter much in the movie, but the designers at Weta Workshop got the memo and created three distinct Orc designs. It took several hours each day for the stunties to get their prosthetics and gear applied--a monumental job. The foam rubber suits were good for about a week's wear and then had to be discarded. The pile of Orc carcasses after the battle with the horsemen was a pile of used-up prosthetics.
Wait, so as someone who's only seen the movies I thought uruk-hai were a separate race entirely, is this true or are they artificial orcs? Also I thought the orcs from Moria were goblins, idk how I got that conclusion but I did lol please clarify for me.
@@jerellmccall1790 yep urukhai is a different race. They are a mix of orcs and some kind of human
@@jerellmccall1790
In the movies ( and later games ) goblins are a seperate thing, but Tolkien actially dosnt make a diference, since for him goblin is just another name for orc ( goblin also translates as mean spirit ).
My head cannon just goes like this, goblins are orcs who live deep in the mointains and in time they got smaller as to be able to go into tunels easier and started hating sunlight even more.
@@stefankatsarov5806 yes, I think that’s the most common head canon. Tolkien confirmed in letters that he started out calling them all goblins but changed the name to orcs to make them sound more sinister. But he never explained why he continued to use both names interchangeably.
There’s a trend though in the books that the term “goblin” is more likely applied to orcs that are smaller and live in the mountains outside of Mordor. The ones living in Mordor and later Isengard are more likely to be called orcs. It’s also divided along race lines as well- the elves and men are more likely to call them yrch/orc, while the hobbits and dwarves usually referred to them as goblins.
We don’t know if Tolkien did that on purpose or if it was a subconscious thing, but there is a trend there.
They're taking the hobbits to Isengard. To Isgengard. To Isengard gard gard.
42:05 its called "wilhelm scream".
its a very well known soundfile that all audio people use for the funni. its probably the most reused asset in all of cinema history.
There's no black people because Tolkein wrote this story in such a way that it could take the place of all the ancient Anglo Saxon mythology we lost to history. Tolkein was an Anglo Saxon literature scholar by trade. He took inspiration from what we do know of the myth and legend of the ancient inhabitants of Britain and worked from that foundation. It's an attempt to start rebuilding a culture that was destroyed by the Normans and Romans.
There's no black people in it for the same reason there are no Mexicans in Greek mythology basically.
I believe POC are mentioned but they are far away in distant lands.
yeah the lore for most things east of Mordor is very sparse
@@ronweber1402
Pretty much. The lands of Rhun and Harad and whatnot have people who are more in the way of Arabic/African descent in terms of appearance, but mostly tbe story focused on a different section of the world.
@@ronweber1402they are mentioned
If im right something about great mountain people in Gondors (or Arnors not sure rn) mountains
still kind of a flimsy excuse on Tolkien's part. black people have existed in Europe for centuries, even as far back as Roman occupation & before that, just not in large numbers. there is plenty of documented evidence. I think the "scholar" chose to overlook this information deliberately.
Fun fact: Christopher Lee was the only actor in the film to meet J.R.R Tolkien, and due to him being in the secret service during WW2, he had to tell Peter Jackson how to do a certain scene in the next film
I'm soo glad they picked him as Saruman. He's an absolute beast in using his acting skill mixed with real life experience. There's seriously no better actor for this role!
Gandalf's limitations are made a bit clearer in the books in that he is there to counter the influence of the higher powers like Saruman and Sauron, but not to hard carry mortals. So he largely is restricted in the extent he can go all out. The fight against the Balrog was an exception because the Balrog himself is of the same order as Gandalf and they were basically 1v1. It was a 10 day slug fest. When they landed in the water the Balrog's flame was quenched (reducing its' power) but it also became "like a slimy serpent" and they fought up the "Endless Stair" and through dark tunnels and "forbidden places" where eventually the Balrog's flame reignited near the peak and they fought their final battle as depicted in the movie. Pretty epic and a shame we didn't get more of it, but there is already a LOT.
Goblin and Fredo are my favourite lmao, always crack up when you call them that
Those two will be remembered alongside Monkeygo Sharingan
Calling Boromir Belamor was a first one. I can't even imagine what he'll call Radagast.
@@Sandlund93 smth along the lines of Rastaman, I'm sure
@@demyanrudenko Yeah, or maybe Rasputin if he knows about him.
canžt lie...i died at this
"May these cloaks hide you from unfriendly eyes" is the phrase you were looking for when Frodo hid Sam from the Easterlings at the Black Gate and the cloak looked like a boulder.
21:16 "Your mom is dead" I fucking spilled my soda hahahaha
The reason Tolkien came up with the Ents was because he had read Shakespeare's Macbeth and was really excited about the part of the prophecy where Macbeth would fall when the Forest marched against him and expected the forest to actually march but was then disappointed when it was actually soldiers disguising themselves with branches. So he decided he would actually make the forest rise up and beat the shit out of Saruman XD
At 34:30 many reactors don't understand why the Forbidden Pool bore the penalty of death. Faramir's men were a commando force operating behind enemy lines. Their hideout was behind the waterfall, and they couldn't risk being discovered.
At 12:50 the Black Riders are now riding on upgraded mounts. Tolkien refers to them as "fell beasts," which is a description more than a name--"fell" is an old word meaning basically "scary." Tolkien describes them: "The great shadow descended like a cloud. And behold! it was a winged creature: if bird, then greater than all other birds, and neither quill nor feather did it bear, and its vast pinions were as webs of hide between horned fingers; and it stank...And the Dark Lord took it, and nursed it with fell meats, until it grew beyond the measure of all other things that fly; and he gave it to his servant to be his steed."
If I'm not mistaken fell is closer to evil than scary. Fell deeds being a common phrase in literature meaning evil or bad.
Also comes from the protogermanic word for "mountain" oddly enough. Though "Scary, Evil, Mountain Beast" would still be accurate in this case.
@@ronweber1402Malevolent I always thought
To answer the question you asked at 13:25 about Gandalf’s fight with the Balrog in Moria, there was a famous stairway in Moria named “the Endless Stair”. The stair spans the entire height of a single mountain, starting in one of the deepest pits the dwarves delved into when they mined, and spiraled all the way up to the tip. At the top, they built a watch tower (called Durin’s Tower), which is where Gandalf finally slays the Balrog for good and dies himself.
So while Gandalf is fighting the Balrog in the cavern, they stumble into one of the rooms the stairway runs through and the Balrog takes the opportunity to flee up it. Gandalf chases and they end up destroying the tower as they battle it out at the top.
The stair was built around Zirakzigil, which is the highest mountain in the Misty Mountains (the mountain range that Moria runs through), and was so high up, one of the Great Eagles (like the eagle that the moth fetches for Gandalf in Fellowship) has to rescue Gandalf once he’s brought back to life and carry him to Lothlorien.
Peter Jackson wasn’t able to include that in the movie, but Gandalf arrives in Lothlorien a couple of weeks after the fellowship leaves and spends a good deal of time recovering. When he leaves, Galadriel gives him his white garments and a new staff, and he makes his way towards Aragorn.
Gollum dead ass gave me nightmares as a child. He’s such an interesting character. His Motion capture actor is Andy Serkis who also played King kong 2005 and Caesar from planet of the apes
Great actor indeed.I feel he does more in cinema
@@welheimanubis7233 He was amazing in Andor.
My little cousin had a nightmare of Gollum when he was younger, it was actually hilarious when he told us about it.
Phenomena in Andor. And he’s not even no-cap in that show. He’s also my favourite audio book narrator. Completely agree gollum gave me nightmares as a kid and I had to wait a few years to actually watch the movies. I was interested but I think my Dad agreed with me watching it at a later date would be better. Me cause I was scared but I think he knew there was a lot to learn from gollum which might be more difficult to take in as a child.
Also I love how everyone forgets he was snoke in Star Wars’ sequel trilogy. His performance was great but his characters writing definitely lacked something in those.
Helms deep has got to be one of the best Battles in cinema history
IDK the Battle of Pelannor Fields is also epic and probably had a little less impact after we had seen the Battle of Helm's Deep.
Remember, Gandalf is an angel. He was sent back but this time with more of his divine powers. Also, the Elvish magic sword Gandalf has is over 6,000 years old and was made to fight demons.
36:58 (on that) Aragorn fought many battels befor this against armys after a while you can kinda tell from seeing an army roughly how many are in one
At 22:10 the caption says Aragorn is speaking to the horse Brego in Elvish. Actually, Aragorn's words are in Anglo-Saxon, or Old English. In the book, the Rohirrim speak a language different from the Westron, the Common Speech spoken by Men throughout the West of Middle-earth. Tolkien translates the Westron as Modern English, but he translates the language of Rohan as Old English. Eowyn's song at Theodred's funeral was also in Old English, and there are a few phrases elsewhere in the movie. The nobles of Rohan such as Theoden and Eowyn also speak the Westron at need. Peter Jackson & Co. regarded the second language as an unnecessary complication for the movie, a wise decision in my opinion.
Well... if the King joined at the start and he died, then no one was there to replace him, as his son has recently died.
So no orders = pure chaos = last thing you want for your army.
So yeah he had to stay the better part of the war in safety.
Yes without a clear succession of power the leader has to keep themselves visible, encouraging ,but safe-ish because their death would demoralize their troops to the point that there would be no path to victory.
Yeah, you don’t send your leadership to the meat grinder that is the frontlines.
You're the first person to react to this movie, who I have seen correctly identify Tolkien's "Fellbeast" as a Wyvern type creature and not a Dragon. Major probs to you 👍
I like how his interest kept increasing in the last one, now he look interested since the beginning lol
Andy Serkis is the absolute GOAT for mocap and voice cap. dude is a STUD actor. he was also Alfred in the Pattinson Batman!
the fact that boromir didn’t want to go is kinda proof he was a good man, and he knew what the ring could do to him. He didn’t want anything to do with it.
DID YOU NO THAT VIGGO BROKE HIS TOE???
TOES***
Two towers is definitely my favorite lotr movie, where i live in nz i can see the place they filmed helms deep from my living room window. Bloody mad
Here's a fun fact for you; That counting game between Legolas and Gimli? It's canonical. It was in the books.
That thumbnail is from the third movie lol
Swearing on the Ring was Gollum's mistake. "The Ring will hold you to it, "says Frodo.
In the movies King Theoden looks like a 50 years old man, actually he is 70 years old, which makes it extremely impressive that at his old age he is still able to fight on foot and mounted on his war horse as well
My little brother used to give my Mom such a hard time while clothes shopping. He would imitate Gollum in the dressing room. Everything she put on him he'd shout "IT BURNS US!!! Ahhh!" If it continued too long she'd call me in like I was an enforcer. Negotiations involved a combination of threats and bribes. Poor Mom....
Bit of lore on how did Gandalf and the Balrog of Morgoth got up to that tower, well put it simply when they were under there on that caverns firstly the balrog runs away real fast and headed to the steps (stairs) all covered in dirty gunk and as well gandalf, now gandalf pretty much made a monologue inside his head about the cavern they are in as the world which their creator Eru Illuvatar (God version of Tolkien) there were many foul creatures under there with them, far more older than them and maybe far more powerful than, they themselves, being an angelic beings, are afraid to what is down there with them, so after that monologue gandalf pick up his sword (Glamdring -The Foe Hammer Bright as Daylight) and runs towards the balrog as that balrog pretty much serves as his guiding light getting out of there, and after they are out of the caverness deep they pretty continued their fights and lasted for a few days, dunno if this is the right things that I have said to you but you can find some lore videos about the LOTR, specifically the nameless things. Love your reaction vid.
29:40 - my mans really just said: "He went and fell off the cliff, funniest shit i ever saw"
Let’s goooooo! The Return of the King is next 🎉🎉🎉
15:58 Yes … When Galadriel gives them the cloaks she says, “DAT CLOAK IS MAD!!!” That’s probably what you’re remembering 😂
At 27:00 Aragorn's people are the Dunedain, the Men of the West, who fled to Middle-earth after the destruction of Numenor at the end of the Second Age, 3,000 years ago. They had aided the Elves in their hopeless war against Morgoth (Sauron's boss!) in the First Age, and as a reward the Valar, the Guardians of the World, had given them a lifespan three times that of lesser Men. The Men of Gondor, such as Boromir and Faramir, were also Dunedain, but over the years they had intermarried with other races of Men, and their lifespans had dwindled to little more than other men.
not quite.
Denetor and his sons are of more pure blood than other gondorians ( they even have elf blood since their mother comes from Dol Amroth ).
Also in Gondor you have a diference between Numenorians and normal humans, that is to say most gondorians have no numenorian blood in them. The rest are split into numenorians who are very mixed and ones who are more pure blooded of the latter the main group is in Dol Amroth.
2 little Hobbits and a bunch of ents takes over Isengard, washing out every orc around, and what do they do next?
Right, let's get high😂😂😂
FINALLY, someone who acknowledges Sméagol feeling betrayed and understanding his decision to turn on Fredo! 😂
we love fredo
@@AF2277S Omg 😭🤣🤣. “Fredo” stays!
RELEASE THE RIVER!!!!
My favorite line from Tree-Beard.
Aragorn and Arwen are both descended from the union of the elf maiden and man that Aragorn sang about in the Fellowship. Arwen's father, Elrond is one of their descendants along with his twin brother, Elros. Thousands of years ago, after an long, important battle, called the War of Wrath, Elros, who had chosen to have a human, mortal life, took his men, and their famlies and sailed to an island between the Undying Lands and Middle Earth called Numenor. The Numenorians were blessed with island and with long life as a reward by the gods of Middle earth, the Valar, for their help in putting down Sauron's old boss, Morgoth in the Second Age. The Numenorians were also blessed with long life as part of this gift, the king's descendants in particular due to Elros's elvish blood. Loving your reactions. ❤
Did you know that gollum voice is the same ceaser voice form planet of the apes😂😂
I had to subscribe finally The Lord of the Rings and one of The DC animated movies in one day. You got it bro (watch "Shadows of Mordor" and "Shadows of War" game cinematic for Lord of the Rings after the last movie for more LOTR lore)
I don't think I've ever had a reactor note the different between a dragon and a wyvern. Props, don. You get props for that.
He was only loyal to frodo because he believed he could trick him. People who think he just changes up because of being "betrayed" doesn't realise he was literally hunting for the ring the whole time after getting out of mordor.
When Aragorn kicked the helmet and screamed, it was a genuine scream of pain because the actor broke his toe in that moment of him kicking the helmet. Also one fact about Gandalf, Saruman, Sauron and the woman who was acted by Cate Blanchett that isn't known throughout the show is that they're not human or elven wizards, they just took those forms. They are a part of a race called Maiar, beings that assisted the gods in creating Middle-Earth etc...
You are right about Gandalf, Saruman and Sauron but Galadriel is most definitely an elf.
So Gandalf, Saruman, Sauron, and the Balrog are all beings known as Maiar. They are primordial cosmic spirits, aka practically angels and demons. The 5 Wizards came to Middle Earth to help the people defeat Sauron during Isildur's time, with the White Wizard in charge. Since Gandalf was the only one that stayed true to the mission, he was not only allowed to come back, he came back with Saruman's job.
Don gdmn :D I waited and waited.Finally time has come to see ur react.I hope u do all Lord of the rings and hobbit serie.Its like my another birthday with ur channel :)
Just be assured that when an elf is "killed" his spirit/soul returns to Valinor where they get a new body...that's why they are immortal/live forever.
oh yeah, the people in red-gold armor marching through the black gate are human, they are Sauron's allies from distant land
"i'm surprised there aren't any memes of that" i'm literally wearing a shirt rn saying po-tay-toes boil em mash em stick em in a stew
Fun fact: Almost all the Riders of Rohan were actually women because finding men that own their own personal horses to play extras is practically impossible. 🤣
The makeup artists and costume designers outdid themselves making it so you can't even tell.
Cracked up when you were predicting the villagers' reactions when Aragorn showed up alive at Helm's Deep and that one woman immediately proved you right by going 'he's alive!'
MORE, I NEED MORE OF THIS!
Great reaction!😊
There are 5 wizards in middle earth (this is greater middle earth lore, not really explained in these specific books or movies) that were put there to do good. They each have a color assigned to them that signifies their rank, I think. There are 2 blue wizards I believe (who we don't meet), Radagast the Brown, Gandalf the Gray, and Saurumon the White. Saurumon is the leader of the order of the wizards, as white signifies the most powerful (but he is corrupted to the evil side by Sauron, who basically contacts/possesses him through the Palantir, that ball). When Gandalf is fighting the Balrog, he somehow lives through "many lifetimes" and thousands of years (I don't really remember how lol) and is basically reborn back at the time he fell as Gandalf the White, now as powerful as Saurumon. That is why he says "that is what they used to call me" when they first see him in the forest and call him Gandalf, because he has lived for so long since then, he hardly remembers he was once Gandalf the Gray.
"Your Mom's Dead!!" Wow. Are you ok??The stress in Rohan is getting to you! On the fifth day, at dawn, look to the East. You'll feel better.
Okay, so a few points; the gross brown liquid Merry is given by the Uruk-Hai is in the books and the world of the movie an Orc Draught which is basically an overproof Orcish Whiskey but they left out the part from the books where Merry is actually suffering from a fever because of that head wound he has getting infected so they do that to try and cure him then they smear a brown paste on the wound which hurts him (and obviously gives them a laugh because Orcs like pain LOL) after which when it heals leaves a brown mark where the wound was on his head... during filming though the brown liquid is actually Cherry Coca-Cola which was apparently pleasant during the first few takes because Dominic Monaghan who played Merry chose what to use for the brown liquid but after those takes it started to get sticky and he also ended up drinking so much of it he felt a little ill as well XD Also in regards to whether or not there are black people in Middle-Earth, there absolutely are; Tolkien wrote all of the tales of Middle-Earth as if they took part in a forgotten period of our own history so the map actually maps over top of our own fairly well but there are some things that are flipped in regards to who lives where... well really it's only one or two groups. Hobbits are one of them but not until after the fact and even then that's only something that's used in popular culture to refer to a new species of humans, those humans being called Denisovans which were a prehistoric human but they were from the other side of the world to Tolkien's Hobbits being Southeast Asian and people only really call them Hobbits because they were literally Halflings with the tallest of them being four feet tall LOL; Tolkien's Hobbits were just shortened hairier British people including where they lived on the map... it's pretty obvious too with their main obsessions being gardening and cooking a fry up. The Elves are Nordic peoples, and specifically the Finnish; it's why Quenya the language of the High Elves is based off of Finnish... then Tolkien picked Welsh as the basis of Sindarin the common language of the Elves. Men are the most varied of the races, with Rohan being from around Switzerland and the other Franco-Germanic countries and Gondor being Roman of some variety although it's more than likely to be Byzantine/Eastern Roman which is actually Greek not Italian; Mordor is around where Turkey is but with less Men and more Orcs ever since Sauron took it over as his home base after the First Age... the other two main groups of Men are the Haradrim who are the ones you see walking through Ithilien with the Oliphaunts/Mumakil and are where you find the main populations of black people because they're from the area on the map analogous to Northern Africa based primarily off of the Carthaginian culture that used War Elephants against the Romans and then the Easterlings who are based off of the Persians from around Iran which are the ones you thought looked human in the spiky armour. Finally there are the Dwarves, and they're the other group who are flipped in reverse of where they're normally associated with living in real life but unlike the Hobbits it has nothing to do with a new species on the other side of the world being discovered then named after them and everything to do with how Tolkien wrote it; the Dwarves culturally and otherwise are based off of the Jewish people... that being said while they may not live south of Rhun where the Easterlings live and east of the Harad lands which is where Israel is on our map they do live in the areas near where Poland and/or Russia would be which makes sense if they're Ashkenazi Jews as opposed to Israeli Jews who arguably would've been the ones Tolkien himself was the most familiar with in the first place being European as well. Finally, speaking of the Dwarves; there's another little tidbit from the book that they did differently in this movie but still paid homage to... it wasn't Legolas who had forty-two kills at the end of the Battle Of Helm's Deep but Gimli and I'm pretty sure that Legolas had more which is more logical but I can't even remember how many he had because it's been ages since I've read the books XD
That Theoden healing scene is great. They shoot this few times when he have different make up on. Two towers is my favorite 🫠
E: bro watched like almost 8h of LOTR and still don't know Frodo name 😂
If u didnt kno, the guy who played eomer is the same guy who plays billy butcher
Karl Urban is a real chameleon the way he changes and is almost unrecognizable from role to role. Steve Buscemi, Vincent D'Onofrio and Gary Oldman are the same they just disappear into whatever role they are in.
Eowyn and Eomer are King Theoden's niece and nephew.
Faramir's father Denethor is the *steward* of Gondor not the king. Aragorn is the rightful King of Gondor.
The dwarves were fighting off Sauron's forces in their own kingdoms. Most of the elves have or are leaving Middle Earth. Those that remain are defending their own kingdoms as well. There are battles being fought all over Middle Earth against Sauron's forces.
The trees headed to Helm's Deep while the Ents attacked Isengard. In the books the Ents weren't as tree-like as the movies made them look so I can understand people getting confused and thinking trees and Ents are the same in the movies.
time to lock in, this about to be goated
Yup, Aragorn is 87. Some of the backstory (barely alluded to in the books, but explained more in Tolkien's other writings) is that there was once a great civilization of Men called the Numenorians. The Numenorians were blessed with long life because of their aid in the war against Morgoth (a bigger badder dark lord before Sauron). But even with their long lives, they were jealous of the immortal elves and turned to dark arts under the will of Sauron, who promised he could extend their lives even more. (This is part of what the rings of power do - their chief power is in slowing the decay of time.) Seeing that the Numenorians were becoming corrupt, the gods destroyed their civilization and the island they lived on. Led by Isildur, the remaining righteous dissenters against Sauron fled in exile to middle earth where they overthrew the dark lord and founded the kingdoms of Gondor and Arnor. The descendents of the Numenorians still have long life, but less so than their ancestors, as one major theme of this age in the world is that magic is fading from the world (hence why all the elves are leaving. As fundamentally magical and immortal beings they grow weary of life in middle earth where everything decays, especially as the age of magic comes to an end).
Fun fact that scream that you hear in almost every movie is called the Wilhelm Scream and if you listen for it, it’s in practically everything.
Sound engineers pride themselves on being able to slip one in.
20:20 Someone else pointed out in another Reaction, if your King comes out of his Castle, who was not seen for weeks or Months and Kills his Advisor, doesn`t sound too good to the People under him.
Gandalf is not just an average wizard. He's sort of an immortal demi god spirit.
Wow! You are actually one of the rare reactors, who frowned about the ents working with "the white wizard, Saruman". Respect!
It absolutely would make no sense, that the ents would be in liege with Saruman after he's been chopping trees left and right for months. And the hints are so clear.
Also, wizards in LotR are not human, but Maiar. There is a bunch of lore, but basically, Maiar are a lot like Angels in Christianity.
There are 5 wizards in Middle Earth alltogether and they're sort of ranked by color. The brighter and cleaner the color, the higher in rank and powerful the wizard. Hence, Saruman the white = the leader of the order. After Saruman's betrayal and Gandalf's "upgrade", Saruman became "Saruman of Many Colors" (not visually depicted) marking him as turn-coat and hence made Gandalf the White the most powerful and leader of the order.
And another little nitbit: That moth that Gandalf talked to on top of the tower. That was Gandalf the Grey asking Radagast the Brown for help and receiving it in form of the eagle. You'll get to meet Radagast, if you decide to watch "The Hobbit" movies. He's a... special kind of fellow.
It should be a war crime to do injustice to the Horn of the Hammerhand
And then, sudden and terrible, from the tower above, the sound of the great horn of Helm rang out.
All that heard that sound trembled. Many of the Orcs cast themselves on their faces and covered their ears with their claws. Back from the Deep the echoes came, blast upon blast, as if on every cliff and hill a mighty herald stood. But on the walls men looked up, listening with wonder; for the echoes did not die. Ever the hornblasts wound on among the hills; nearer now and louder they answered one to another, blowing fierce and free.
‘Helm! Helm!’ the Riders shouted. ‘Helm is arisen and comes back to war. Helm for Theoden King!’
And with that shout the king came.
This is my favourite of the trilogy! Been looking forward too this! Aha
andy serkis did win like 3 awards for his performance as gollum
Gandalf basically didnt just level up, but defeating the Balrog gave him a CLASS change. 😎
Not gonna lie, this is the first time I hear someone calling the Wilhelm Scream as the Star Wars Scream, that got a good laugh out of me, didn't expect that haha
6:14 There are no black people because all western realms in Middle Earth are based on Roman Empire, Saxons and many many European cultures from centuries ago.
There are black people in Tolkien books, but they live in south in desert lands, named Harad, Khand, and possibly Rhun. They are not shown in movies, because director thought that putting politics in the movie is wrong.
He made a mistake because on Mordor side, black people fought, in fact in movies, "bad people" has darker skin, but they are not totally black
Gandalf died and then he was sent back by the powers that sent him (and the other wizards) in the first place. Fun fact: they chose the guises of old men so that they’d be considered more trustworthy.
Did he hear the Emiliana Torrini song in the end credits? It's my favorite of the three theme tunes (well of course, a jazz guy can work off that chord-sequence for ages).
I had to check that you watched the 1st movie 😅. Had to tell the difference between Saruman and Sauron, calling him Goblin, forgetting Aragorn is a ranger so he can track, forgetting the size of Hobbits and not knowing Merry from Pippin 😂.
20:20 Aragorn didn’t want Theoden’s first act healthy again as vengeance.
No dragons in this trilogy. They are called Fell Beasts, something like zombie pterodactyls. You'll meet a Tolkien Dragon in The Hobbit trilogy.
Wait until number three. Sam is the main player man.
Gandalf the type of brudda in the party to solo the boss to get all the xp and loot
Fredo is Italian now 😂😂😂
Sounds about right, lmao.
This story takes place near the end of the third age of Middle Earth. Back in the first age an Elven lord married an angelic spirit who took the form of an Elven Queen. There daughter married a Mortal Men. Then there were a couple more generations that lead to the Half Elven twins Elrond and Elros. Because of their powerful and semi devine lines they were allowed to choose which of types of their kindred they wished to be. Elros chose mortal men for himself and his descendants. Elrond chose Immortality. But his descendants, born immortal can also switch to mortal. Because of the devine nature of their Spirit Foremother that line will never die. Elros is Aragorn's forefather and Elrond's many, many, many....times removed uncle.
Gandalf was battling the Balrog for 2 days and 2 nights in the book. So they covered alot of ground.
This is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Did you know the brother with the horse. The one that came with gandalf at the end is buthcer from the boys
Fortunately boy soldiers are mostly back up and support, but needed to defend themselves too.
I'm happy you're saying extended edition each time otherwise every crazy fan would be upset. Trust me I'm one of them lol
The king of gondor is aragorn 😊
The elves are going to another continent where the "gods" of middle-earth live. Its essentialy paradise.
Take drink every time he say "I'm not gonna lie" or "I can't even lie" if you've got no regard for your health.
If you can stand hearing that every other sentence without your ears bleeding first.
We need a "I can't even lie"-counter at this point 😆
gandalf actually got offered to play dumbledore but it was to similar to gandalf so he rejected

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE ENTWIVES?
In a time long ago beyond the reckoning of the stars, an enchanted land of magical beings flourished. Its inhabitants lived in peace, for the most part, each race to its own needs. The land was vast in size, and beings of the same ilk were far-flung.
So it was for the creatures known as the Ents. Ents were ancient and enchanted trees with the ability to speak and move about. They seldom did either, for in their home - Fangorn Forest - there was seldom a need for verbal communication and mobility. Their basic function was the care of very young or less evolved trees. It was natural to them, therefore, to be very solitary.
Though the only known survivors of these beings appeared to be gender male, their own memories told of a gender female race of Entwives. Unfortunately, having lived without them for time out of mind, these Ents had no memory of what had ever become of the Entwives.
Over many centuries, the Entwives had, one by one, begun to abandon Fangorn. This was odd, for Ents were not known as an adventurous and hasty race, which explains why their migration was so long in accomplishing. Much time and thought went into deciding where in the land their nurturing and life-giving gifts would be most useful.
Long before the War of Wrath, they settled in the forest of a land called Lindon beyond Eriador, west over the Blue Mountains near the Gulf of Lhûn. They found in that land, many young trees to nurture, bringing new life to a forgotten forest. They live there still, bathing and frolicking in the rich swamp waters.
Damn I just wish you did at least 2 parts (one hour each) for us youtube only viewers, so we'd have at least half of the movie reaction, and not a quarter...
Truly !...
It's not the Patreon members that give a channel it's reach..it's the YT subscribers...granted copyright is a problem but breaking it into 2 vids makes it easier...that said a number of channels manage to give longer edits...🌿🌿🌿
