@@CharlieHopkinson I'm legitimately more excited about this than I am about Season 2 of ROP. This is like stumbling on Christmas in the middle of an insurance seminar.
Considering none of the elves would dare touch the ring for fear it would corrupt them, they were quite willing to claim humans were the greedy, power-hungry ones.
If your father was Steward of Gondor with ridiculously high expectations for you (and extremely low expectations for your baby brother the ranger), you'd have anxiety too.
"Oh look, the wisest and fairest of all beings needs help from scratty little men... How embarrassing." Boromir being salty because of the intro is just so good.
Technically it is the Black Speech on the Ring. The Black Speech didn't have a written alphabet though so he had to use the Elvish letters to write the inscription. In any case, awesome job on the impressions as always!
@@Samuel-vw4yv He probably didn't want to bother. Most of his minions were likely illiterate. He had a hard enough time getting them to speak the Black Speech. Plus there are lots of languages in our world that use the Latin alphabet rather than inventing their own. I think Tolkien wanted to parallel that and have Elvish Tengwar be the standard alphabet for most Middle-earth languages.
"This burger looks nothing like the picture" 😂😂. So many lols. And after some many lols so many times I can't believe I haven't subbed. Fixing that now
Calling the dark lord of mordor someone who “wouldnt take his shirt off before he got in the pool” is such a great burn, it’d reveal the writting on the ring.
What I learned today: Sauron wears platforms, has a Napoleon complex Is OP Is "like the Messi of Mordor" 😂 "Who is Tolkien?" Gandalf: "That journalist who keeps following me around ..." 🤣🤣🤣 This video is priceless! Keep up the excellent excellent work! 🙏🤓🖖🤣🤣
I love how Boromir gets pissed off by the constant running down of men. He's so funny. His sinusitis would be playing up on that volcano. He's such a hypochondriac 😂 love them all.
I would die if Peter, Fran & Phillpa watched all of these. If pay money to see their reaction to these reactions. Any of the actors watching these would just make my year. 😊
I may be wrong, but I believe you're thinking of Balrogs there. Sauron was a different breed of fallen Maia, uniquely tending towards shape-shifting before Eru Iluvatar got sick of his shit and removed his normal creature body privileges. That armored form is one of the only loopholes, he is allowed to manifest as an edgelord or a hideous creature, just not anything anyone not already in a desperate situation would ever trust.
@@GruntoSkunko He's a Maiar, so technically that wasn't dying, but yeah, that was Iluvatar getting sick of his shit. He also hit Numenor since they were the people Sauron was manipulating at the time.
Your impressions are freakin amazing. I could watch Gandalf, Boromir and Elrond all day. Sam and Aragorn are great too and so was Tom. I wish there was more!
The fiery ring inscription IS written in the language of Mordor, just using the elvish alphabet. Gandalf told Frodo this in Fellowship…. I guess Gandalf has since forgotten that, preoccupied as he has been with his leg workout routine.
They probably weren’t too wrong about why Sauron didn’t take his armor off. At that point Sauron had lost the ability to take on an attractive human form. He probably looked like a nightmare.
the funny thing is, the script may be elvish but it actually is written in the black speech of Mordor XD also props on the impressions, very impressive!
"All of them were deceived, for another ring was made...." Are you sure Galadriel? Pretty sure Halbrand, I mean Sauron, walked up to you to told you his entire plan and asked you to join. Or are you referring to the part where you didnt tell Elrond and Celebrimbor that you found Sauron?
The entirety of Rings of Power is completely inaccurate to the Similarrion - Tolkein 's ACTUAL account of events from the First and Second Age. It's best to treat Amazon's Series as a very expensive Lotr Fanfiction. It's honestly not much more than that.
@@zerosen1972 Too bad the prologue as great as it is made mistakes with the LOTR book. Isildur did not defeat Sauron, it was Elendil and Gil-galad. Narsil was broken under Sauron’s lifeless body not stomped on. The Last Alliance was winning handily and had already besieged Barad-dur for seven years. Sauron ran to Mount doom and the Last Alliance pursued him. And lately the ring poem is inaccurate, Galadriel should know that all the rings of power were made by elves for elves except for the One Ring.
The very idea of these watch parties by "cast members" is a riot! I thoroughly enjoy them and have watched all of the LOTR more than once... and even the roasting parties of Amazon's "The Show That Shall Remain Unnamed." You're a great comedian, Charlie!
8:22 using the deleted scene of Aragorn vs Sauron from Return of the King, I've estimated Sauron to stand at exactly 8', or 9'2½ counting the spikes on the helmet.
I love watching these beloved characters in such homely surroundings. I want to see Galadriel show up dressed in shorts and a Rainbow Brite t-shirt, her signature golden hair a total mess, dropping snarky zingers from the couch about Saruman's sexual impotence as she knocks back a Budweiser.

Since you only cover 5 minutes of the movie this will hopefully be a long series!
@random user Yep full 6 movies in pieces then released as a full thing
Please make more Gandalf gaming or just Gandalf vids they’re my favorite skit in your channel! Much love to you and yours subbed forever❤️
@@CharlieHopkinson I'm legitimately more excited about this than I am about Season 2 of ROP. This is like stumbling on Christmas in the middle of an insurance seminar.
@@CharlieHopkinson Huzzahh!!
Boromir getting more and more pissed off at Galadriel had me in stitches hahaha.
I mean he has a point
I mean what would you expect a perfect angelic being to think of humanity?
Considering none of the elves would dare touch the ring for fear it would corrupt them, they were quite willing to claim humans were the greedy, power-hungry ones.
I love Boromir so much 🤣
Your sean bean impression is always like he just ran a marathon, and is exhausted and disgruntled about losing. Which is very accurate.
_Drama_
It is a gift... 👌
like he just drudged up a snow covered mountain instead of taking the helicopter like everyone else 😉
@@hellfish2309 was going to say this lol
Or crying. It always sounds like he's about to start crying.
Boromir's impression always kills me. Its like the poor guy is constantly suffering from anxiety
If your father was Steward of Gondor with ridiculously high expectations for you (and extremely low expectations for your baby brother the ranger), you'd have anxiety too.
Boromir being played by Sean Bean, he has a right to be anxious lmaoo
Its as if he just walked up three flights of stairs all the time
He has sinutis
I put it down to the morphine recovery after the perforations. (Athelas recovery...sorry)
I can already feel Boromir saltiness, a year from now, when Faramir is dragged back into the city gates, filled with arrows but still alive.
*if he survives, I swear to Eru*
Oh man, yes. This is great 😂
Technically Faramir only was struck by 2 arrows. As stated, leading cause of death is 3 arrows.
@@UchihaOokami2596 He was struck once, by a 'dart'. Just saying.
"Oh look, the wisest and fairest of all beings needs help from scratty little men... How embarrassing." Boromir being salty because of the intro is just so good.
I’ve had a rough couple years Charlie, thanks for making me smile so much lately.
May your next couple of years be without imploding from super tetanus.
Hope things have improved for you.
"You're such a Faramir" gave me that 3 arrows death of laugh
This guy is seriously talented. I hope your media studies gives you the best grades
Every line of Boromir is golden
"He just robbed a dead man not very heroic of him" legit described every MMORPG game released lol
I can't get enough of these reaction videos. Please stop every other pursuit in your life and continue to appease me. Thanks in advance.
😹
This comment requires more likes.
Everything is spot on! Elrond to Gandalf: "F*** Off!" was epic 😆. Thanks for sharing this.
"Getting them to line up like Queen in Bohemian Rhapsody" - this. Loving it, Charlie 😄
Boromir is the best part of these videos the way he talks and reacts to stuff always gets me🤣
I love the Gandalf reactions!! ^.^ Boromir is so salty twords the elves 😂
Thank Tolkien and Jackson that the Fellowship of the Ring is over 3 hours long, so that we got more of this content
I own and watch the extended version of all three every Thanksgiving.
@MrHurst-lb1rn sound likr a thanskgivving i wiuld enjoy. As long as its all 3 extended editions 😂
I like that Gandalf is talking out of character but Elrond and Boromir are in full character.
Yeah, because Elrond was known to have yoga on Tuesday 🤣
I don't think Elrond and Boromir were so salty lmao
Technically it is the Black Speech on the Ring. The Black Speech didn't have a written alphabet though so he had to use the Elvish letters to write the inscription. In any case, awesome job on the impressions as always!
Why didn’t Sauron just make an alphabet for it?
@@Samuel-vw4yv He probably didn't want to bother. Most of his minions were likely illiterate. He had a hard enough time getting them to speak the Black Speech.
Plus there are lots of languages in our world that use the Latin alphabet rather than inventing their own. I think Tolkien wanted to parallel that and have Elvish Tengwar be the standard alphabet for most Middle-earth languages.
Same prinsiple as english using the latin alphabeth.
@@ulfjohnsen6203I believe we use the Phoenician alphabet. English has influence from Latin, but it’s actually a Germanic language.
These are so well done, the script is hilarious!!!! Well done!
"He'd chop an Orc's head off but he doesn't like conflict"
&D
The risk assessment level is "off the charts". Let's agree on a different locale? LMAO
Oh my god, you actually mentioned how Sauron was really defeated in the books!! I love you man!
You’d think Elrond would be grown up by now 😂
Elrond Half-pint
Elves live and grow very long...
😂😂
@@Сайтамен Yes, so long, in fact, that one might even say they age backwards!
Father has been cookin the Gondor books 😂
Only 2 minutes in and loving it. Looking forward to the entire series
"This burger looks nothing like the picture" 😂😂.
So many lols. And after some many lols so many times I can't believe I haven't subbed. Fixing that now
This is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen
im so hyped the gang is back
now let's solve some mysteries
Calling the dark lord of mordor someone who “wouldnt take his shirt off before he got in the pool” is such a great burn, it’d reveal the writting on the ring.
😂🤣
Not if he is in the pool
What I learned today: Sauron wears platforms, has a Napoleon complex
Is OP
Is "like the Messi of Mordor" 😂
"Who is Tolkien?"
Gandalf: "That journalist who keeps following me around ..." 🤣🤣🤣
This video is priceless! Keep up the excellent excellent work! 🙏🤓🖖🤣🤣
The 'Fuck off' from Elrond is so good lmfao
The best part of these is Boromir. He always sounds so defeated.
8:12 Boromir truly is oldschool, everyone knows that nowadays the 4-3-2-1 rules supreme
My brother. My captain. My king.
I love how Boromir gets pissed off by the constant running down of men. He's so funny. His sinusitis would be playing up on that volcano. He's such a hypochondriac 😂 love them all.
All three impressions are SPOT ON. And your script is hilarious too. Thank you for bringing joy to my life Charlie ❤
These videos never get old, there funny as hell 🤣🤣
This is like LotR just never ending. No one has used deep fakes to better effect. You so perfectly captured the essence of these characters.
I would die if Peter, Fran & Phillpa watched all of these. If pay money to see their reaction to these reactions. Any of the actors watching these would just make my year. 😊
Gandalf: “It’s important to keep the mind clean and clear.”
Elrond: “Ive seen your browsing history Gandalf.”
Roasting Sauron over the volcano and armour is really funny considering he's a fire spirit. So yeah, he probably is really hot to the touch.
I may be wrong, but I believe you're thinking of Balrogs there. Sauron was a different breed of fallen Maia, uniquely tending towards shape-shifting before Eru Iluvatar got sick of his shit and removed his normal creature body privileges. That armored form is one of the only loopholes, he is allowed to manifest as an edgelord or a hideous creature, just not anything anyone not already in a desperate situation would ever trust.
@@theendersmirk5851he did burn Gil Galad with just his hand so he was very hot right
@@theendersmirk5851Sauron didn't lose the ability to take a fair form until he died in the sinking of Numenor
@@GruntoSkunko He's a Maiar, so technically that wasn't dying, but yeah, that was Iluvatar getting sick of his shit. He also hit Numenor since they were the people Sauron was manipulating at the time.
Please, please,don't stop making these. The real young elrond got me good ! Also more book references!!
Your impressions are freakin amazing. I could watch Gandalf, Boromir and Elrond all day. Sam and Aragorn are great too and so was Tom. I wish there was more!
"Good luck and don't Took it up" is a damn good catchphrase 😂
You're going to have content for years if you do the whole trilogy! Here for it. :)
All lined up like Queen in Bohemian Rhapsody 😀 spot on!
Wait wait wait... You mean to tell me we're going to be blessed with reactions for all 3 extended editions of the movies?
Correct
Glorious
The fiery ring inscription IS written in the language of Mordor, just using the elvish alphabet. Gandalf told Frodo this in Fellowship…. I guess Gandalf has since forgotten that, preoccupied as he has been with his leg workout routine.
Its a joke. Ffs
Isildur going for a swim in armour never struck me as odd until I saw this.
"We don't just desire power you know,we also have cool Horns and other wind instruments"
"You're such a faramir" imma use that phrase from now on HAHAHA. excellent!
You are such a Faramir.... Just bloody brilliant cheers!
Tolkien being "that journalist who followed us around" is too funny.
Your such a Faramir . Nothing else in any medium makes me laugh out loud so hard. These vids are my precious
why this doesn’t have more views, this is genius 😭😭
This is hilarious, please make it a series with the whole movie
It’s like Esperanto all over again made me spit out my tea laughing. Class
They probably weren’t too wrong about why Sauron didn’t take his armor off. At that point Sauron had lost the ability to take on an attractive human form. He probably looked like a nightmare.
"You're such a Faramir" probably hurts more than point blank piercing arrows.
That destroyed me
Well done Charlie - another banger! Is that Louis Vuitton armour? 🤣🤣
"The Messi of Mordor" got me.
That mean girl reference cracked me up 😆😆
the funny thing is, the script may be elvish but it actually is written in the black speech of Mordor XD
also props on the impressions, very impressive!
That wig is portraying 95% Boromir and 5% Anakin
More instant gold. Thanks for making us all laugh with our good mates from SW and LOTR
One of the things that really makes the series great is that I can so easily imagine Ian McKellen doing exactly this
Imagine this channel blowing up so much that at some point the originals are sitting on the couch! That would be awesome!
New theory: Halbrand ISN’T actually Sauron. He’s just being paid a boatload by Messi to pretend he is because Messi is Sauron…
"All of them were deceived, for another ring was made...."
Are you sure Galadriel? Pretty sure Halbrand, I mean Sauron, walked up to you to told you his entire plan and asked you to join. Or are you referring to the part where you didnt tell Elrond and Celebrimbor that you found Sauron?
Well, I mean, this video is more canonical than Amazon's series, so you should really be complaining to them.
The entirety of Rings of Power is completely inaccurate to the Similarrion - Tolkein 's ACTUAL account of events from the First and Second Age.
It's best to treat Amazon's Series as a very expensive Lotr Fanfiction. It's honestly not much more than that.
To be clear, this is sarcasm/a joke. I fully acknowledge that Rings of Power isnt accurate to anything
@@zerosen1972 Too bad the prologue as great as it is made mistakes with the LOTR book. Isildur did not defeat Sauron, it was Elendil and Gil-galad.

The classic flute-guitar combo
Trust me it sounds exactly like a violin
Why is he wearing armor? It’s hot in there. Zelda breath of the wild: am I a joke to you
Made my day to have another of these! Love them, properly make me laugh 😂😂😂
"Look at this guy... this guy's definitely already lost his ring... "
"Can I... maybe have another one"
The very idea of these watch parties by "cast members" is a riot! I thoroughly enjoy them and have watched all of the LOTR more than once... and even the roasting parties of Amazon's "The Show That Shall Remain Unnamed." You're a great comedian, Charlie!
First thing I've even seen with Sean Bean that he makes it to the end.
He did survive Silent Hill.
2:54 - Boromir's outrage
8:22 using the deleted scene of Aragorn vs Sauron from Return of the King, I've estimated Sauron to stand at exactly 8', or 9'2½ counting the spikes on the helmet.
Hearing Elrond curse is hilarious can't wait for the next time he curses
No matter how crappy I feel, your vids always make me laugh. And I mean all of them. Thank you.
This is so much better than network TV.
Elrond: "Who actually was the Lord of the Rings?"
Gandalf: "I can't remember, I'm terrible at names"
Sauron: "Heckin rude!"
Charlie: I do a good impression of a hot dog.
Hot Dog: I do a good impression of a Charlie.
- Charlie Hopkinson
this is the best 🤣can't wait to watch the rest of these after work
If this wasnt so briliantly made, i would find this unforgivable.
Great job, boys
Gandalf and Legolas riding up to Theodens hall look like they've got Wu Tang on the airpods.
“Buy our corned beef” is possibly the most effective advertising slogan I’ve ever heard
I love watching these beloved characters in such homely surroundings. I want to see Galadriel show up dressed in shorts and a Rainbow Brite t-shirt, her signature golden hair a total mess, dropping snarky zingers from the couch about Saruman's sexual impotence as she knocks back a Budweiser.
I could see that, but Galadriel would most likely wear a Harley Quinn t shirt.
Poor Boromir, he's a suffering soul in this world.
Ive never watched lord of the rings in my life, but this. I'm here for it !
This is just gold….thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
0:30: lol! LotR as a mockumentary! Now that would be something!
“buy our corned beef” got me good. lol
"Maybe go 4,4,2" killed me
Lord of the Rings was Sauron's stage name when was Melkor's wrestler in the Middle Earth Wrestling Federation.
Omg this is the best yet. The mean girls reference was *chefs kiss
OMG im so loving this !!! well done sir !
Lord Elrond as a baby is just fucking 😂
The Gollum coffee mug is a nice 👌 touch.
I used to live in Buckle"berry", the ferry is at Kint"berry"
It’s “the Stank” for me
Can't wait for more! This is glorious!!!
