After Bilbo's birthday party in Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo returns to Bag End and finds Gandalf cryptically muttering about "riddles in the dark". Now you know what that means. That's literally the title of the chapter in the book (The Hobbit) when Bilbo meets Gollum. The eagles are not silent animals, but a kingdom, and though they are friends with Gandalf they are not his to command. They are not horses to be ridden. The Lord of the Eagles told Gandalf: "We are glad to cheat the goblins of their sport, and glad to repay our thanks to you, but we will not risk ourselves for dwarves in the southward plains."
A really obscure callback in Fellowship of the Ring that reactors never mention or show - right after Bilbo drops the ring and leaves Bag End, Gandalf is staring in thought at the fireplace, and says “Riddles in the dark …”. Gandalf is thinking about Bilbo’s tale of the riddle contest in Gollum’s cave. Or you can say that’s a bit of fan service to Hobbit fans, as that’s the chapter name in “The Hobbit” that covers that episode.
Lovely reaction, as usual! There are four key scenes in this film that always get the feels train going; the Gandalf and Galadriel scene, the pity of Bilbo towards Gollum, Bilbo's speech on why he came back, and Bilbo and Thorin's hug at the end. They really showcase the themes of the book, and Tolkien's wider mythology, of kindness, mercy, compassion, and forgiveness in a beautiful and sincere way.
I love these movies. They're more cartooney and childish than LoTR but then so is the book The Hobbit. I love the creative action scenes and great acting!
I am going to NZ in September to visit Hobbiton for Bilbo's Birthday celebrations! I went last year and it was so good that I had to go again and bring my friends along this time! I'm so excited and watching people appreciate the films for the first time is getting me further hyped to see all the locations like Edoras in the south island!
Just this past winter I too bought the extended blu-ray edition of the The Hobbit trilogy! As a Tolkien fan for some 50 years, when the hobbit movies first came out I was hugely disappointed in all the extra "stuff" PJ & Company added into the story, but over the years I have mellowed and now I enjoy these movies immensely for what they are. I'm glad you have decided to take the plunge! Just remember that this one is a children's book. There is more whimsy in this story and more of a fairytale feel to it than in LOTR, but it still has depth to it as well. I enjoyed rewatching this one with you. Thanks for sharing it! I'm looking forward to the movies ahead. 🙂
Thank you so much for this fact. It was driving me crazy. I was like his voice sounds so familiar, but I can't put my finger on from where I heard it. He was casted perfectly.
Saruman was very wise, he knew sauron could return, you can see this in his worried Look, but he is too arrogant to accept it. Btw Saruman was good at this point, you will see it in the 3th movie
Yes, he's arrogant and things he's the only one who can figure things out. I think that's also why he eventually switches sides. He sees no way to beat Sauron and therefore he thinks no one can do it, and it's better to join him than be destroyed.
Notice that Bilbo didn't see Sauron when he put on the Ring, whereas Frodo saw The Eye whenever he put it on. At that point, Sauron was at Dol Guldur not only weak, but surrounded on three sides with nearby Elven kingdoms - Mirkwood, Lothlorien, and Rivendell. He he at that point reached out with his mind to find the Ring, he was have been immediately perceived and sensed, and would have been swamped and destroyed by the existing armies of the Free Peoples. That's also why he feinted to Mordor when confronted, Dol Guldur was simply too vulnerable and hot to remain there.
Another powerful reaction that was thoughtful&emotional... Kahla, get your box of tissues out again, cuz this will not be your last time to tear up; and we are all here to feel it again, with you! Thanx
These movies get criticized for having a lot of non-canon filler that Peter Jackson made up - especially the 2nd and 3rd movies. But something I realized is that the scenes featuring Bilbo are pretty faithful to the book. The book is about 95% “limited omniscient” 3rd person following Bilbo closely. If there were a “Bilbo Cut” with just the scenes featuring Martin Freeman, that would be a faithful adaptation and really would tell the whole story (with the exception of one key scene in the book when Bilbo was elsewhere). It’s like Jackson DID make a faithful adaptation … and then added about 4 more hours of filler.
yeav, everything that was in the book was in the movies pretty much; i wonder if you could cram all the 'faithful' bits together to make one movie or if it would be too long...
I have The Cardinal Cut - it's 3 hours 48 minutes 23 seconds and pretty much what people might expect the book to cover as much as the available scenes will allow. You can find it quite easily.
Yes, goblins are a type of orc. Goblins are smaller, sneakier and more clever with their inventions; Orcs are bigger and stronger. i wouldnt want to meet either kind, really!
From the book, and I think they did a good job: "He was desperate. He must get away, out of this horrible darkness, while he had any strength left. He must fight. 25:43 No, not a fair fight. He was invisible now. Gollum had no sword. Gollum had not actually threatened to kill him, or tried to yet. And he was miserable, alone, lost. A sudden understanding, a pity mixed with horror, welled up in Bilbo's heart: a glimpse of endless unmarked days without light or hope of betterment, hard stone, cold fish, sneaking and whispering. All these thoughts passed in a flash of a second. He trembled. And then quite suddenly in another flash, as if lifted by a new strength and resolve, he leaped." Although the movie didn't capture th religious bend to the books: when Bilbo has good luck it's God supporting his good decisions, which is why in LOTR Gandalf says Bilbo was meant to find the Ring.
Fun fact, regarding your notion that there is a HOLE dragon ahead of them. Smaug, terrifying and large as he is, is actually tiny compared to the dragons that inhabited this world before. when you look at the terrifying beasts of the first age, this is just a baby.
Two little pieces of trivia I will drop for you. Balin, the white haired dwarf. You should remember him. In The Lord of the Rings when Gimli finds the tomb of his dead cousin in Moria. That is Balin's tomb. Balin becomes the Lord of Moria after the events in The Hobbit. Also, you meet Gimli's father in this movie. Remember when Lord Elrond shows up and says something in Elvish and a red haired dwarf say "What is he saying, does he offer us insult?" And Gandalf says "No Master Gloin, he's offering you food." And Gloin says "Well lead on then." Gloin is Gimli's father. The Hobbit trilogy is a great set of movies. They are not as perfect as The Lord Of The Rings trilogy mind you, but they are great in their own right. I'll let you be the judge at the the end of the trilogy what your opinion is. But I thought I would drop those two little trivia easter eggs for you from this first movie. Great reaction by the way ;-)
It's in the book. To save narrative time in the film, and probably to avoid seeming silly, we don't see the eagles speak. They are a kingdom and make it quite clear what they are and aren't willing to do. They're friends with Gandalf and generally agreeable to help out in some situations, but they are not horses, and will not put their own people at risk unnecessarily. They are actually displaying great courage and heroism when they show up in clutch, as they do at the Black Gate in Return of the King.
It's because men are often cruel and selfish and ignorant. A bird that big? They would climb over each other trying to take the shot that brings down such a magnificent beast and then claim glory, not even considering that it might have been sentient and speaking.
I am LOOOVING your reactions to the Tolkien world... You are my favorite... because you get it.... I get emotional at the same exact point you did and I watched these movies when they came out.... you are a kindred spirit and you just get it.... for example you understood they were talking about the king witch... I have seen a LOT of reactions to these movies and no one gets it.... that's why I think i my mind... this girl is from my tribe and she could be my friend!! Although Im all the way in Guatemala... but you have a friend here incase you travel here one day 😃👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'd like to add after playing the Lord of the Rings Online I learned there are many different types of Giants, and well as Trolls, Dragons, etc. The game needed to expand some on the lore, but at least it's not completely random.
At the time that "the Hobbit" takes place, Sauron is still physically a disembodied Spirit, but growing slowly in power. Bilbo is far away from Sauron, so he cannot (yet) sense the ring being worn. (Plus Bilbo is Deep underground) Sauron spent 3000 years as a virtually powerless spirit, one without any real power, but had recently became stronger, enough to summon the 9 and to manifest in this world as a darkened shape. With the Nine he grows more rapidly, thanks to their rings aiding his growth. But he is still not strong enough to project his knowledge far from his Lair. Hence, through the story of the Hobbit he cannot sense Bilbo wearing the ring. Afterwards Gandalf warns Bilbo that ANY magic ring is risky, so Bilbo rarely uses it... unless the Sackville-Bagginses come a visiting! (Which doesn't happen a lot.) In LOTR, the One Ring hears its master calling for it, and allows Bilbo to pass it to another, one it hopes will use it. I think, but do not know for sure that when Gandalf touched the Ring in Felloweship , the touch of a powerful wizard awoke it and it stole a little of Gandal's power to call to its Master. Hence the Sudden Eye vision that Gandalf had. (Gandalf is a Maiar Spirit, who appears to be human, just as Sauron is also a Maiar, one who can shapeshift - in the past he has appeared as an Elf a Human and a Vampire.
Peter Jackson told the art guys to redraw the Wargs because he wasn't satisfied about them in Lord Of The Rings. They didn;t look scary enough, they didn't look like wolves, more like oversized hyena's.
I'm a big fan of this return to Middle Earth. A lot of people will complain about some of the changes, but I was never not invested. And half of the "new" content that may not be in the original book, did take place at this time, because the RotK Appendices give us those details. I must also say that, if you can figure out how to watch it, the extended version of the third movie elevates it from 'just good" to "just amazing." I hope you are able to see it that way.
Long story short, one of the biggest reasons these movies use so much CGI is because of the incredibly short preproduction, due to the original director, Guillermo del Toro, leaving for another project and the studio forcing them to stick to the original filming schedule. They had three months, which is nothing. They had to start filming before they even finalized Azog's appearance. They had three iterations filmed, which can be seen as different orcs. Sadly, if they had a proper schedule, most, if not all, of these films' flaws would have been fixed. Being forced to film it in 3D didn't help. Yes, orcs and goblins are the same thing. They're made to look a little different in the movies, but orc and goblin are just different names for the same folk.
Peter Jackson looked like a different man when this was finished (Trilogy). As if the joy of film making was gone. He gave everything he had (as did others) to do the best they could amid extreme studio interference which never existed on the LotR.
The extended editions for the first movie don’t add toooooo much, but I would say that for the second and third movies they add some useful scenes that get into stuff about one of the Dwarven Rings of Power which is really cool!
This may not be the proper way to make a suggestion, but based on your observant reactions, I really think you should watch Pan's Labyrinth by Guillermo del Toro. It is a masterful movie that can be interpreted in different ways, and it would be interesting to see what you make of it. But note, that it only comes as a Spanish language version with subtitles, as del Toro felt that otherwise its authenticity would suffer.
I've watched a LOT of reactions, yours are always one of my faves, because you GET IT. And you remember details from LOTR that come in handy here. You put 2 & 2 together like, "duh!" 😁 It's funny, I think watching these two trilogies in the order they were released is better than watching them chronologically. I think the call backs work better this way. ps: the series has many haters out there (mostly irrational), but Lord of The Rings; The Rings of Power on Amazon Prime is pretty amazing. Takes place in the Second Age... before the Ring was even made. Visually breathtaking. It's not 100 canon, and they made a bunch of stuff up. But the basics are there. If you're not a purist, you might enjoy it. Season 2 premiers in august i think.
Acctually i like The Hobbit movies. The second one is the best one! And this new music is great too. The goblins looks kinda bad, they looked better in LOTR.
i blame the studios that wanted a trilogy like the LOTR but there is not enough material in a children's book for it. i don't know what Peter is up to at the moment if i believe the rumors but i hope it's not an even bigger let down. still, it's nice to be back in Middle Earth.
I personally dislike The Hobbit trilogy very much, mostly due to the huge amount of filler scenes and total disregards to any laws of physics. At least a couple of them if not all of them should have died in the Goblin scenes. But I will say Martin Freeman is a great casting choise for this role. Almost all of the scenes with Bilbo are great, especially the riddle scene with Gollum. There are a few other good scenes but they get overrun by all the other stuff😅

Cate Blanchett playing as Lady Galadriel in this movie looks just as beautiful as she did in the Lord of the Rings trilogy
Yes, she is breathtaking
One of my favorite characters.
She looks great at 8,000 + yrs old.

I think the elf that told them
that the dwarves were gone is the same one who tried to stop Arwen from turning around in lotr
He's got a fandom since his first appearance in Fellowship. He was asked back for the hobbit and I believe they named his character Lindr.

Sounds great! Have a wonderful time!
Totally love Gollum's facial expressions in the cave with Bilbo. Cracks me up every time. The MoCap is mind-boggling for its time.
"You gave him your name _and_ address" cracked me up.
For it's time? makes it sound like they had shit technology and somehow made it amazing. Mocap was not new.

One fun bit of casting. The Great Goblin who took them captive is voiced by the same Australian actor who did Bruce the Shark in ‘Finding Nemo’.
@@alexthorpe6583 So that's why his voice was so familiar.

Clutching your pearls? That almost made me fall on the floor laughing!

Thanx
Just think if Bilbo had killed Smeagol when he had the chance. Frodo would put on that ring and no one there to bite his finger off.
Saruman was not on Sauron's side yet. But he had his own agenda. He wanted the One Ring and didn't want the others to interfere in his search for it.

@@RickOConnell327 I think you’d need 2 movies. You could practically do that now by merging movies 2 and 3 and cutting the fat
I'd love to see that book edit of the film.
There's an edit out there called the M4 Book edit which cuts all three films down to one 4-hour film with an interval, it's very good!
I have The Cardinal Cut - it's 3 hours 48 minutes 23 seconds and pretty much what people might expect the book to cover as much as the available scenes will allow. You can find it quite easily.
