The Lord of the Rings movies were incredibly successful and critically acclaimed, for good reason. With revolutionary special effects, costumes, make-up and more -- Peter Jackson’s movies became instant classics, and he wrapped up the trilogy with The Return of the King in which the king… returns.
The movie was critically acclaimed and a massive success at the box office, but it still raises a few questions. Like what’s up with Frodo being the absolute worst? How does he always end up siding with Gollum? Why didn’t they include Saruman’s death in the theatrical cut? Why does Frodo keep getting stabbed? Why does Denethor eat tomatoes like that? What’s up with the sudden ghost deus ex machina? When is this movie actually going to end?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting that led to The Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

“Got him on a technicality “
That made me laugh so hard.
Who knew that villains were sticklers for details?
Not really the place, since it's an obvious joke to make, but I say it on every discussion this comes up, so here we are. It's a common missconception that "no man CAN kill him." The prophesy actually says "no man WILL kill him." It's a subtle difference, but it is important. He is mortal and can be killed any time, but he doesn't fear any battle, since he knows that as long as he is fighting a man, he will not be killed in that fight. That's how Eowyn catches him off guard.
"Ah, loopholes are tight!" "Well, they're not, but I know what you mean, sir."
FolgoreCZ just a technicality really 😂. But thanks for the clarification.
@@FolgoreCZ Also wrong, as in the books the sword that Merry had was a Dwarrow-Blade made to kill Nazgul, and when he stabbed the Witch-King in the leg his ward was stripped from him, allowing Eowyn to kill him.
Now do three longer LOTR pitch meetings with deleted scenes
I don't know. That must be pretty difficult to do.
@@jovalleau Actually it's super easy, barely an inconvenience
@@jovalleau not really it's gonna be super easy barely an inconvenience
(Gasps)
Rereleasing things with deleted scenes is tight
Describing Arwen: "If Enya's music was a person" Best line ever.
it just instinctually makes sense too
Well, Enya DID sing one song in the first movie
i was amazed at how fitting this describes Arwen. Ryan surely is not from this world.
i paused an checked for this LOL its too good a description
It's an old joke. Still very good.
"...and then he eats food in a way that you know is going to make the cherry tomato industry have a rough couple of quarters..." Couldn't agree more...
Denethor is so repulsive. I hate him so much. Especially since he tries to burn alive his own son. Like damn, delusional ass
this is just one of those facts i can see being true, but....how does one even begin to prove it?
I have always disagreed with the "too many endings" complaint, but that was definitely the funniest takedown of it I've ever seen.
Then you didn't see it in theaters while having to urgently pee during those 5 endings 😂
@@lkf8799 That is true. I saw it four times in the theaters, but each time I made sure I was fully drained!
@@lkf8799 mad dash for the restrooms afterwards
@@lkf8799 I loved that it went on and on and on, but I DID take a short bathroom break like 3 hours in when nothing exciting was happening, so by the time the endings rolled around, I could already watch in peace.
They actually scheduled a break in our theaters because of this. 😅
I never had a problem with it. Actually, I love the Endings as a rare depiction of winning the battle but not being able to live with the trauma of it. It showed the prophecy of Galadriel to be true "The quest will claim his life", because Frodo had to leave his life behind.
That cherry tomato scene still haunts me to this day.
You're not alone. We should start a support group.

- He accidentally sets himself on fire and runs a mile to jump off a structure.
- A very athletic human torch.
im dying bahahaha
This line and the one where he says she got him a technicality caught me off guard !! 🤪😂
running a mile while on fire is super easy, barely an inconvenience...
I, too, watched the video.
Great! So what was your favorite quote?
😀
- And then Frodo finishes his own book!
- Glad to hear somebody knows when to end things ...
The jokes about the multiple endings had me in tears!
That long pause had me rolling!
Watching it the first time I was also wondering if it would ever end :)
This made me realise I think I never actually made it through all the multiple endings to the end end. :-D
"Shes the one if like Enya's music was a person".
That is a 12/10 way to describe the hurricane of beauty that is Liv Tyler.
@Roboute Guilliman I think they're making a 'lady got old so not hot no more' joke
unpopular opinion...Liv Tyler is pretty, but a miscast. she'll never be how I picture Arwen
@The Last Toilet Roll I decided to have a look, particularly at her in Gunpower - 2017. Barely aged since LOTR. 2020 pics, and she looks like... a woman in her 40's. Which is just fine.
So true.
@Roboute Guilliman
No. Well, eventually she did. She gave up her Elven immortality to be with Aragorn.
"Who is Arwen?"
"She's if Enya's music was a person."
"Oh."
My favorite line
Totally precise
But then goes on to name every other character flawlessly
Actually a vivid description.
@@HeilRay As well as a perfectly accurate one.
"...if Enya's music was a person"
"...a very athletic human torch"
"...glad to hear someone knows when to end things"
Love these videos.
The "we fade to white" 9 seconds silent scene waiting for each other to speak is just so hilarious. Emmy owes you an award, Ryans (yes, with an s).
I died at that part and had to replay the stare- scene multiple times cuz it was just so damn funny 🤣
I remember seeing that in theaters as a young teen, and I couldn't help but point it out to my dad.
Pitch Meetings, providing better continuity than most movie and tv series.
Super easy barely an inconvenience

@@jerrys.9895 Wow, you've indeed lived a sheltered life if you've never been to Dildo Mountain.
“I can’t help but notice you’re still talking” 😂😂😂
‘Delicious wedding cake of a city’ that’s definitely what everyone thinks of seeing Minas Tirith for the first time
"Minas Tirith: a wedding cake of a city". I cannot unsee.
Arwen: If Enya's music was a person. 😂
Such an accurate description though!
Just perfect. Love that joke. :D
Genius
That's what the guy said in the video!
what's enya tho
“Oh a very athletic human torch!”
I choked on my water at that one.
That was my favourite line
Cookies... I was attempting to eat cookies that became very hard air.... :')
Me too, only I was trying to eat some fries 🤣🤣🤣
While on fire, I bet he wished he had water to choke on...
lol!!
Honestly, I’ve always wanted more long endings.
Completing everyone’s arcs is important.
I agree completely!!
Leaves nothing to the imagination
I think the word you wanted is TIGHT.
@@EzraDair I don't mind, "leaving it up to your imagination" is 99% of the time just an excuse for bad writing. Good stories have good endings. But the movies don't tackle all of them from the books, like the shire being invaded and Merry and Pippin becoming famed warriors who go on a bunch of adventures and are eventually buried next to king Aragorn.
@@EzraDair You want imagination? There are books for that.
These two guys have excellent cohesion in their conversations. It's almost like they know what the other is going to say before they do.
Almost like knowing what the other is going to say before they do is tiiight.
🤣 The suspense of him waiting if the movie is actually over.
@Ricky Shiffer
It's one of the few legit criticisms.
@@BonaparteBardithion If you'd like, I'll give you about a hundred legit criticisms.
“..... and then they go back to the Shire” Dude So freakin funny!! Ryan is just the best.
The faces he made were great
“Oh, he’s gonna need him to get all the way off his back!” 👌😆
my favouriter phrase man
what he says to screenrant for carrying the channel
I'm pretty sure this line killed me, because I am slowly floating into the atmosphere
@@Sohbek You mean, that line killed you because you came back as Sohbek the White?
A+++++
Can only imagine his response to the endings if The Scouring of the Shire had been included.
I can kind of get why they didn’t because it feels like they already spent the energy caring but boy I wanna se it
I was actually disappointed when after over three hours the next two weren't spent on the scouring of the shire. I was upset they left it out. Now I'm ok with it. At that time, not so much.
"They got some information from a bowling ball" is one of the best, most underrated lines in this video
This might be the funniest line in any Pitch Meeting ever.
*that* line? Really?
Right up there with "Saruman makes Gandalf break-dance".
Informative bowling balls are tight!
I just like how the movie producer guy was still in his “reborn” outfit 😂
They filmed all three at once
Pitch Meetings over here with more writing consistency than recent billion dollar franchises
I forgot about it so it took me a moment to remember why hes that way LOL
maintaining continuity is tight!
Ahem, he is called Producer Guy the White. *Pushes up glasses
"Can't help but notice you are still talking" lmao
I hadn't noticed how many times the movie should have ended 😂😂😂😂
This movie has more endings than A.I.
100% nailed how i felt watching the movie.
Me when watching it with my sister, even before the multiple fake endings "is this ever gonna end?" 15 minutes later....
@@namukolosiyumbwa3323 I couldn't help but notice as when I saw this in the theater there were a couple people groaning after the third or fourth fakeout ending :D
"Which one is Arwen again?" "She's the one who's, like, you know, if Enya's music were a person." I had to pause for a minute I was laughing so hard :D
Same, my chest was hurting I was laughing so hard!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really want to see the Pirates of the Caribbean movies...I feel like he could have some fun with those
I second this motion
@@BirdLadySpeaks I shall be the second to seccond this motion.
@@arjunsatheesh7609 I shall be the first to be the third to second this motion.
@@CrotchetRest I shall second your third of the second of this notion
The comments are so wholesome
"Which one is Arwen again?"
"She's the one who's like, you know, if Enya's music was a person" 😂
So accurate, I feel personally attacked.
I lol'ed!
This and the “athletic human torch” line got me.
She was basically Aragorn's prize because she had no discernable character in the books. Her plot in the movies is completely contrived.
Looked some Enya, realized I had heard her music before, crazy
They had to put "The end" at the end of this movie because you wouldn't believe them otherwise.
It was even worse in the book; almost half of the book is left after the ring is destroyed.
@@mortiphasm6816 I was looking forward to the battle of Bywater in the movie!
Mortiphasm
Uhh it’s a lot less than half. I hope that was a joke
@@Onikage55 we also all felt "Damn! I gotta pee!"
When my mum and I first saw fellowship of the ring in theatres she didn’t realise it was a trilogy...well she knew the books were a trilogy but didn’t realise the movie was gonna be a trilogy... so we get to the end of the film and she says ‘what? Where’s the rest of it!!’ I had to explain they were still filming it!
Éowyn is Mulan Now. I had to reply so I could laugh more discreetly.
To be fair Éowyn story arc is Way better than the Live remake of Mulan story arc.
Éowyn as Mulan is pretty lit xD I had to agree, it kinda have a better vibe compared to the live action adaptation of Mulan.
Eowyn is Jeanne d’Arc before Mulan
I actually love the 27 endings of return of the king. If you're going to spend approximately five years on a trilogy you might as well end it right. Sometimes I see this new big budget films and I'm like "they spent 200 million on the movie and twenty dollars on the ending"
Yeah. If only they had done it right. Oh, well.
@@nagoranerides3150 what are you talking about? They DID do it right
Plus it put an end to shitty-sequel stuff hollywood tries to do now. We all now they milked the Hobbit, but at least we didn't get a spin off.... yet
They most definitely did *not* end it right.
Watching in the theater, I had no idea they killed Saruman off in an extended scene earlier in the movie.
Logically I thought the movie would end the way the book did, with *The Scouring of the Shire* showing what happens to Saruman / Wormtongue.
I was disappointed. 😭
@@iamjayrts1846 Well they skipped the whole part where the remnants of Sauron's army massacred the inhabitants of the Shire, so.
I love that he’s still producer guy the white
Still fabulous hair that complements his blue eyes.
Human Person he looks pale pink to me.
NHMO OYTIS I thought that too
Omg. You win. 🤣🤣🤣
Continuity is tight!
This one has some of Ryan George the White's best acting.
That's commitment to a bit.
I'm sorry but that's not Ryan George, that's Producer Guy the White
@@firefly620 there is a resemblance though, you can see how he got confused
I remember seeing this movie in theaters, after it fades to white and comes back for sams ending, a man in the audience screams “THERES MORE!” Made the movie so much better lol 😂
Was he excited, confused, or tired?
@@Giran_0 he sounded confused and annoyed lol. I’m assuming he wasn’t expecting three endings like that. Lol
"Oh, got him on a technicality."
"She sure did, sir!"
😂😂
That was basically the basis for the Ramayana
I’m glad someone else was also disturbed by how Denethor was eating those cherry tomatoes. I still can’t even look at them- and they were once my favorite!!!
Yeah, that was pretty gross. Almost ruined Pippin's beautiful song.
That seems like an overreaction.
I saw that as a kid and ate chicken and tomatoes like that for like a year. I thought it was cool eating like a king(I didn't get the steward thing as a kid). I still do that sometimes when I eat alone.
@@Colty95 Kings and nobleman usually fart on the table too. Also, with their hygiene, life expectancy was somehow between 30 and 40.
@@daemon2470 Wait, do you mean "fart AT the table"? Or actually on the table itself?
I'd heard that in many older cultures, breaking wind during dinner was seen as a sign of respect for the host/chef/etc. implying "this food is really good."
“That’s the name of the trilogy!...that’s somehow still going...”
Genius
“the cherry tomato industry took a hit for a couple of quarters” 😄😄
Yeah...that eating scene was cringe
Having no last line of defence around the volcano bothered me for a long time, too. There was one indication of that in the book. Sauron was so obsessed with the power of the ring that he couldn't imagine someone would be willing to destroy it. And technically he was right.
And that eagle showed up to save Frodo. Definitely could have knocked 9 hours and most of 3 books off the clock using an eagle instead of a hobbit.
@@andrewfrankovic6821 That’s after Sauron was defeated, there are plenty of reasons why flying into Mordor wouldn’t have worked, starting with the giant eye on a tower in the middle
@@danielgrill6327 Under the right circumstances, for instance give an eagle the ring, those logistics could be solved off camera, BUT, then there'd be no movie. How long before Gollum isn't found to have survived the lava?
@@andrewfrankovic6821 Sauron can see through the invisibility, and his attention is even pulled toward people putting them on
@@danielgrill6327 Or so Tolkien and others thought. When you think about iT everyone sees THRU invisibility. Get iT?
“His armor... that looks like a prom dress”... classic.
I remember reeeeally needing to go to the bathroom in the end of this movie and it just wouldn’t end
For real! I did a marathon at the local theatre and it was 4 am when the last one ended. The audience was groaning and just wanted to leave. I had to piss like a racehorse and finally left in the middle of the seven endings....lol
Be thankful they just killed Sauruman rather than have him take over the shire like in the books. That's am extra 45 minutes right there.
@@gm2407 Or a sequel movie that they split into three parts.
@@peterroe3389 Got to have time for the musical theatre with memories of little orphan Frodo before Dwarf Warbucks Bilbo adopts him.

@@dfllifuran Bruce Willis was Arwin's dad in Armageddon. 😱😱😱 You know with that Aerosmith song 🤯🤯🤯
Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant called the LOTR movies 3 hour long Enya songs back on the old XFM podcasts. Great minds think alike and all that.
For those wondering how Shelob stung Frodo: She stung him in the neck where he wasn't shielded by the mithril.

5:00-now that’s fear
I've never had a problem with the Return of the King's ending (or endings so to be speak), I feel it's one of the most perfect epilogues to a trilogy of all time.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣YOOOOOOOOOO PLEASE STOP!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the film that never ends. Yes it goes on and on, my friends. Tolkien started writing it not knowing what it was, and Peter kept on filming it forever just because.
🤣🤣🤣
"If Enya's music was a person."
Damn, that's spot on.
@Ricky Shiffer only time ... :D
".. eat food in a way that's gonna make the cherry tomato industry have a tough couple of quarters.."
LMFAO....oh man...that description was tight!
"She's the one who's, like, if, you know, Enya's music was a person."
Laughed way too hard at that.
The 25 minutes of ending in LOTR is what i wished the last airbender would've had.
After Aang defeats Lord Ozai, the show ends like 2 minutes after.
Better than Game of Thrones ending. They took 2 whole seasons to wrap it up after Ramsey was defeated.
@@jakel7213 oh trust me got lot to say about GOT lol.
But I will say Ramsey was never "The Main Villain" but yeah that last season sucked so much.
There's a dufference between a TV show and a movie though. A movie shouldn't drag you that's much. 20 minutes is 1/10 of a movie, but it's about 1/1000 of a TV show.
@@groot7844 LoTR is like a 12 hour story, What's wrong with 20 minutes to wrap everything up
Thats why the lord of the rings is a masterpiece.
"Well it should be pretty easy to attack sauron's army with all those ghosts" "actually its gonna be super difficult, a major inconvenience! The ghosts all leave"
A real missed opportunity for him not to pull this reversal on his catch phrase.
I was holding my breath for that XD
I love how he’s traumatized by all the multiple endings and he won’t believe that the movie ended
Having a long epilogue sounds like a good thing to me. I always hate it when we never get to see the main characters enjoy the peace they won. Just "Yay, we won, party!" and then roll credits is always super unsatisfying.
But that could've been done in a better way
“Long epilogues are TIGHT!”
*that’s what she said*
People complain about the long ending in the movie, but they haven't even heard about the Scouring of the Shire. The hobbits all came back home and had to retake the Shire from Saruman.
Scouring of the Shire
@@christiancividino455 Yeah, thanks for the name. Changed the comment to shorten it.
Utopia Krux Yw. It would have been cool to see Saruman’s spirit to look toward Valinor only to be swept away by a west wind.
That part of the book truly has a high historical AND symbolic significance. In the first place, Tolkien was writing the books during the Second World War. Immediately after the war, the Communist infiltration took place in America, slowly blinding people between truth and reality. To America, who never had the war brought to them, Saruman's infiltration tactic would be very significant and a reminder that even when the greatest evil may be "destroyed", evil still exists in this world, and that it is necessary to always be on guard and defend against any evil, no matter where it is.
It made sense, because in the book, Saruman was not killed, and he menacingly threatened the hobbits (in a relatively subtle way) on how the Shire may be destroyed. In the first book, there are signs of spies and "dark men" living in Bree near the Shire, and after the war in the West is won, they cannot come home to a hero's welcome because their home is also attacked and needs a hero to save. This kind of parodies how America may have won the war in the European theater, but ultimately had to turn to the homefront in fighting the unseen enemy, the Communist part (which rose to power in the 1930s and was responsible for a lot of terrorist and destructive acts during the 1950s). It seems sensible that, while the West is fighting a direct and powerful enemy, the Shirelings in the East are fighting a far more indirect and powerful enemy which many are powerless ( or blind) against. I find that part of the book quite relevant in its own way.
There was a very Christian element in the Scouring of the Shire when the originally jealous relatives of Frodo are hailed as heroes for ultimately trying to fight against the "men from the South". Also it seemed interesting how Frodo gives up all the worldly possessions, only staying long enough to make sure everything at home is in order. Frodo is reconciliatory towards the Southern men during one skirmish in so much as he showed compassion and spared those he captured (when otherwise the hobbits would have quickly killed them in revenge), how the hobbits quickly found ways of rebuilding and fixing what was destroyed, and in essence, converted the authoritarian state created by Saruman back into the original loving and free Shire once more. It made sense because why would the Shire be completely untouched by evil after the nazguls had left? Nothing stops evil from entering except watchful hearts and alert minds. After the "Ranger" left (Aragorn), the Shire did not have that anymore. What else could be expected?
@@richardbonnette490 Interesting. I never thought of it that way.

I have just re-watched this series...The extended DVD box set with one of my daughters. She had seen it years ago but, as she was home due to illness, I suggested we work our way through that bad boy. It is epic!!
I always feel the same when I finish watching these movies is longing. For a simple existence. A 'Bag End' life of basic farming and less hustle and bustle. A natural lifestyle without making a huge, negative impact upon my surroundings. Some place where modern noise is limited. Although...would be nice to have a jaunty soundtrack playing in the background. You're hearing it now aren't you? It stays with you.
Great movies.
"He's gonna have to get all the way off his back."

y dose quotes
It is so satisfying when he says "I don't know." to any reasonable question as if it the most insulting request ever. Love it.
Eowyn is the quintessential example of a strong female character developed 100% perfectly with logical compelling motivations who's climax moment is influenced partially by the fact she's female, being completely natural and cohesive. There should be a course taught about her in all screenwriting schools.
Also, in the books, she has a kick-ass feminist argument with Aragorn.
You might want to reconsider. Because outside that battle, the only thing she was good for was to want to become Aragorn's wife, and finally she becomes Faramir's wife. Not gonna say that her battle scene isn't kick ass, but she literally has no arc whatsoever.
@@physeter_de595 So while Théoden King was having the life sucked out of him Eowyn was just waiting for her prince to come? Nah, being tough isn't just about swinging swords. Caring for an ill loved one is often more courageous than wielding a hammer.
@@physeter_de595 So, there's something wrong with pursuing love? And, apparently, you missed the parts where she was the leader for the non-soldiers (women, children, old) before and during Helm's Deep and ensured they made it to safety, and Theoden named her his steward/lieutenant to run the ENTIRE KINGDOM while he was away at war. (But she smuggled herself along with the soldiers.
So, yeah, you're completely wrong on every level.
"Then Sam shows up with a frying pan and fights a giant spider to save Frodo."

“And then we fade to white”, “we fade to white” 🤣🤣
Man, the chemistry between Screenwriter guy and the Producer is palpable during that extended pause
I would love to see an Austin Powers or MegaMind pitch meeting
Oh man same here!
Though I’m worried Ryan would squeeze all the Austin Powers movies into one Pitch Meeting. I’d rather them be individual Pitches.
Pitching Austin Powers is groovy!
Let's be honest here. I'd enjoy a pitch meeting about an episode of 60 Minutes.
when Ryan says barley and inconveince
Everyone: he said it, he said the thing
"Barley and inconveince" lol
barley?
I've noticed that you can generally tell how well-done a movie is by how often the Producer interrupts the writer. Especially to ask questions. This was a pretty questions-light episode.
Producer: I bet ending this movie will be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Screen Writer: No, uh, it's actually gonna be pretty hard to end this thing...
Ahem. I believe their names are "Producer Guy" and "Writer Guy".
@Ricky Shiffer wait what happened to producer guy the grey. I owed him like a ton of money.
In case you haven't read the books, the ring gets destroyed halfway through Return of the King. Showing as little as they did in the movies after the ring was destroyed is actually a great accomplishment.
Wait, what? They destroy the ring that early in the story?!?
But then you have the scouring of the Shire as well, which would've been a bit more satisfying than half a dozen false endings.
@@Neion8 The scouring of the Shire was probably the least satisfying piece of any media ever to me. I get Tolkien trying to make a statement about war and all that, but it completely disrupted the flow of the story for me.
@@Nathrezim0 Fair enough, but I'd also argue that it's the main part where you see the growth of the Hobbits and the benefits of their adventure (as in almost everything else, they had quite a bit of support); had they just sat at home like every other Hobbit and let the rest of the world fend for itself they would've been incapable of protecting themselves. However, because of their experiences - they gained the ability to defend their homes.
Although I can understand it steps away from the structure of the traditional hero's narrative used in 95% of fantasy/adventure/folk stories by throwing in another conflict immediately after the resolution which can feel disjointed.
@@Neion8 Oh yeah, I can definitly see how some people like it and and respect what that part of the story is doing, I just don't enjoy it myself.
Of course, you're right in that it does show off how much the Hobbits have grown, among other things!

"Which one is Arwen again?"
"Oh she's the one who's like, you know, if Enya's music was a person."
I mean, he's not wrong.
"Which one was Arwen again?"
"Oh shes the one' you know if Enya's music was a person" 😂😂 i love it

Lmao

I look forward to them discussing 'The Desolation of Smaug'
and the fact that very little was desolated by Smaug in that movie.
Smaug died in it. I t's hard to be much more desolated than that. 😁
It was Smaug that got desolated
@@stefanlaskowski6660 Smaug did not die in ‘The Desolation of Smaug’.
@@shyamsundarrajan2469 Smaug may have begun the movie in a desolate state, while offscreen & isolated. When he appears for the first time in the movie it is when he is joined by another person, Bilbo, while both are surrounded by mountains of physical wealth.
Smaug then leaves his virtually uninhabited cave and heads to a densely populated city. If anything, I'd say Smaug was the opposite of desolated in 'The Desolation of Smaug'.
Hobbit Pitch Meeting:
Writer: "So this story is based on a single book rather than a trilogy of books, so it should make for a face paced, action oriented film with-"
Producer: "Oh good, another trilogy!"
Writer: "No, I said one movie."
Producer: "Yeah, three movies, that's what I said."
Writer: "No, sir...it's only one book, so it should only be one movie."
Producer: "What? I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of cash registers in my head."
Writer: "Whoops!"
Producer: "Whoopsie!"
He freaking says it
LOTR is a single book..
it just writes itself at this pooint lol
Hobbit: An unexpected trilogy
Hopefully the Hobbit gets remade one day into a proper standalone epic movie. Or actually it may be possible to edit the hobbit trilogy down into a one TIGHT film lol.
"A very athletic human torch"
I'm literally wiping tears now
I loved the ending! Lots of resolution & it have me time to stop bawling!
The use of silence was the funniest thing Ryan's done!
Wasn't he still wearing that armor that looks like a prom dress?
LOL!
Girls in chainmail armor are the best.
@@Carewolf Yup!
You mean girls in chainmail armor are ti... Oh, I see why you changed it.
More like a wedding dress or something. Prom dresses look more like bathing suits these days.
@@mattf7926 lmao
“If Enya’s music was a person” 😂 that’s pretty accurate
"you know is gonna make the cherry tomato industry have a rough couple of quarters" killed me, I lost it.
"That movie... it has so many endings. It just wouldn't end."
- Jack Nicholson as told by Frodo,.. I mean Elijah Wood on Graham Norton's Show.
I can't be the only one who never saw the extended cut and never knew how Sauroman died lmao
Actually, he and Wormtongue escape, and nobody knows where they've gone; then when the Hobbits get back to the Shire, they find that Saruman has taken it over, and they have to stage a coup to get rid of him. _Then_ Wormtongue kills him.
You are.
Buy the Extended Edition DVDs.
@Nanju ikr
@@tobybartels8426 Yeah...in the books.
In the film, we never see Saruman again, and in the Extended Edition, Wormtongue kills him in Isengard and is himself shot by Legolas.
@@jonathancampbell5231 : The movie wasn't long enough. I demand the Scouring of the Shire!
"...................well I think it's a great trilogy-"
"And then we go back to the Shire!"
"Oh, my God."
I legitimately think that's what actually went down during the actual pitch _and_ table reading with the cast.
Dear Ryan, never say "hope u guys like the pitch meeting" at the end of each sketch. WE ALWAYS LOVE THESE PITCH MEETINGS 😎
3:36 this dismissive and dry "maybe.." cracks me up everytime 🤣
"Then that guy Denithor accidentally sets himself on fire and runs a mile to jump off a structure" 😂
The things you do under depression ....
