This is what I love most about Gandalf. He’s easily one of the most ancient, powerful, and wisest beings in Middle Earth. But his favorite pastime is making fireworks to entertain common folk.
G E T R E K T 905 He probably became serious cause of *when* he became Gandalf the White and more, not to mention he was the only one among the five Istari who was doing what he was supposed to do in his mission for the Free People and Middle Earth. If Gandalf could, I'm sure he would have one last good time like when he was known as Gandalf the Grey
Exactly, I love that, too. Not only that, I also love the fact that we see him dancing with Hobbits, then later he's laughing has he grabs more fireworks to light up for the Hobbit children and others in Bilbo's name, his closest friend, if not one of them. It's a shame he had to leave Middle Earth. Does anyone know if he had some kind of yearning to return from Valinor one day? I can imagine he did.
@Luc Germain The blue wizards did go to the east, but they were actively looking for sauron and putting down Melkor worship, if there was any. It seemed like radagast was doing nothing, but one of the valar wanted him there for a reason. It seemed like his job was more about protecting nature. After all, no one else was. It makes sense why he would, seeing how Sauron's evil can corrupt nature and the creatures that rely on it. Gandalf was just more active. I don't think any of them failed their mission except Saruman, since he was the leader and was the most powerful and supposedly the wisest, yet he betrays everyone to side with the enemy and then take the ring for himself. The other 4 wizards seemed to follow their mission, but they did it in different ways.
Bilbo had the ring for 60 years, the most corrupting object in middle earth, and still was able to be kind and generous to others while admitted to Frodo he was selfish. It shows how pure of heart Bilbo was
The ring takes a long time to take hold of it’s keeper on top of the fact that hobbits are the most resilient and noble race in relation to corruption. According to the book, Bilbo regarded Frodo as the best hobbit in existence, and Bilbo had a great respect for Frodo.
@@genericname7020 of course i was generalizing. Smeagol was a bad hobbit before he ever saw the ring and his morals were far below Frodo's. He killed Deagol because he felt entitled to a birthday present after all.
@@Raidmasterprod Well if you actually read it, you find out they were just another victims to schemes of beings far overreaching their powers and cognitive abilities. Especially Lobelia found herself going like "It should never have gone this way".
In the book, some of the presents he gave were snarky. "'For ADELARD TOOK, for his VERY OWN, from Bilbo'; on an umbrella. Adelard had carried off many unlabelled ones. "'For DORA BAGGINS in memory of a LONG correspondence, with love from Bilbo'; on a large waste-paper basket.

"'For MILO BURROWS, hoping it will be useful, from B.B.'; on a gold pen and ink-bottle. Milo never answered letters. ";For ANGELICA’S use, from Uncle Bilbo'; on a round convex mirror.

not true there is many in Lord of the rings who would destroy the mages in harry potter ALL mages, Gandalf, Sauramon and pretty much all the mages as they are immortal gods to mortal and can't even use the maximum of their powers they are that OP, Tom Bambadil he was strong enough that the ring didn't even work on him and he could see people wearing the ring, he had some killer songs (literally). Sauron, many of the Elves, Dwarves they made some of the best magical enchanted weapons, armour and buildings to protect themselves they are no slouch in combat either.
@@Caritasaveritas To be frank. Christopher Tolkien was an absolute brat about Peter Jacksons LoTR. We should accredit all the great work Christopher did for the world in further his father's creation, but not deify him as being more then human. He believed these movies utterly failed to capture the seriousness and splendor of Middle Earth instead capitalizing on it for commercial gain. His criticisms ring completely hollow, as he had already stated these opinions before the movie even began shooting and declined numerous offers to meet Peter Jackson over the years of production. Christopher really became Denethor in a way, a great man who believed he was the only person capable of stewarding the property at the expense of furthering the property.
Pippin was a legend man. He had an extremely low IQ and manages to make everyone laugh by being an idiot. Not that he cared about anything LMFAO when Gandalf died he was faking the tears cause he was high on buckweed
I love how Bilbo, despite being at one point face to face with a dragon, and had watched Laketown be destroyed by Smaug, is so nonchalant about Frodo yelling: “Dragon!”
He knows a Dragon would no interest in coming in the Shire as there is hardly any treasure (even Bilbo’s small share of the gold he got from the lonely mountain was only small compared to the riches found in places in Kingdoms of Men like Gondor and many Dwarven Kingdoms like Erabor, the Iron Hills and the Blue Mountains). So Bilbo knows what’s he talking about as he’s seen a Dragon up close.
The "weed" is tobacco and before you say it weed back in Tolkien's day was slang for tobacco like "you got a weed" ment if you had a cigarette not to mention Tolkien was an avid pipe enthusiast who was obsessed with capstan pipe tobacco so it's not skunk grass like you dipshits think
That’s what I love most about Gandalf. He’s a Maiar. He’s very powerful and very old. Created by Eru before the making of Arda . And yet he likes spending his time dancing and lighting off fireworks for children. My favorite character from Tolkiens work.
Raymond Hamill considering that the Shire calendar is 1400 at this date, that means there were dragons at some point in Eriador in the Shire’s history; sometime during Angmar’s rule over the north, I’d presume
3:11 - This is why Freeman was such a perfect choice for young Bilbo in "The Hobbit". In this moment you just can't help it, but notice the same stuttering manner as Freeman did so many times in "The Hobbit".

@@williamking1081 Yeah he simply says "I am from under hill. And under hills and over hills my path has led."

Given how fractured the relations of the last wyrm's were with Sauron, I doubt they get updates about the world beyond what they see with their own eyes. Kind of like saying someone killed your distant cousin and they live on earth. Not much to go off of.

@ghostoftime1 the way frodo ask sam for Rosie to have a dance then sam starts dancing with Rosie if frodo pushed me over for dance i say why you goofball I will get you for this my guy hahaha
According to history it is similar to that. The chinese were making fireworks instead of weapon but the west caught on and make a fire weapon out of it.
"Rosie Cotton dancin'. She had ribbons in her hair. If ever I was to marry anyone, it would've been her." Samwise Gamgee, after the destruction of the Ring
Rich noso duh. people who read the novels knew so a long time ago. I remmber when I first saw the movie instantly I racalled the novel when he was telling the story.
Well one small part of it The good news is that we actually see the three trolls still frozen in place exactly where they were 60 years later I was still a bit ticked they had them talk in the actual scene it just made them goofy
I love how the party sequence shows Frodo as a young little hobbit full of life and joy among friends, neighbours, girls and uncle he loves. And the ring sucks all of this out of Frodo, traumatizes him that he never recovered. So heartbreaking.
What I love about this scene isn't just the fun of Gandalf and Bilbo but how it shows Sam's Growth as a character through the movie. Here he's terrified of just LOOKING at the girl he likes and Frodo pushes him to her, and then at the end he sees her when he comes home and immediately gets up and talks to her. It's heartening to see how he's gone through so much and has finally reached the point where he can stand up and not be scared anymore.
I realize the significance of the Shire scenes (aside from world-building and just showing us the peace our heroes fight for later) is to also establish Frodo and Sam. Sam here is so nervous, shy and reserved. Frodo is cheerful and full of glee. When they return, Sam is bold enough to find love and run for mayor. Frodo on the other hand...
Also to introduce people to Hobbits. You need to understand the type of creatures they are. They are low key people who just want to smoke and eat, but the fate of the world comes down to four of them.
@khfan4life365 i read somewhere that Merry and Pippin were talking about the makeup they wore for that scene. when they came out of the makeup room, they were singing the Chim Chim Chim Cher-ee song from Mary Poppins lol.
When this movie came out, I was in sixth grade and my teacher had recently read us the Hobbit. I was so thrilled to see the part where Bilbo is telling the story about the trolls, because even though I'd never read LotR, it was something from that universe I was familiar with.
I bet at Amazon they think "We need more armour, we need more weapons, more action, more..." When really, P.J.'s depiction captures the most vital part that makes a story: Character introduction and build up.
This kind of fantasy story telling is fascinating. It's just a peaceful evening at Hobbiton where the most evil things that could happen are fireworks shaped like dragons. The last act of a child before going into the deepest dungeon and facing a Balrog.
RIP Ian Holm, I'm almost 50 years old and just realized he was the priest in Fifth Element, the professor in The Day After Tomorrow, the android in Alien, and so many more memorable characters.
Frodo and Sam are top ten movie bros. Frodo made things happen for Samwise before he got brave. Sam did him a solid by sticking by him no matter what. We all need a bro like the hobbits.
Dat prediction on blowing smoke. The ring to be destroyed, and ship to sail to the white harbour (not sure bout the "white harbour"-name but thats how its translated to my language.) Not many know this, but Gandalf is old, old, old wizard to know a lot about darkness, Sauron, and all of the dark powers. He is SO OLD, and wise beyond comprehension of any human/hobbit/dwarfen mind. I love that character, its awesome
He's been around since the beginning of time. He's older than old. He's part of a higher race, the Maiar, and he was sent down to Earth/Arda to combat Sauron. So yeah, he's very old. Older than Earth itself
I never noticed how different saruman and gandalf were in their use of gunpowder. While gandalf used the gunpowder for fireworks that could bring happiness and joy to people, saruman used the gunpowder to create machines of war and bombs to destroy and kill.
It’s really sad but Bilbo’s party and the Green Dragon was pretty much the last time Frodo seemed genuinely happy until the end. He really was forced to hit the ground running :(
1:19 Bilbo is reading a chapter to the young hobbits about the day three transient trolls tried to eat him, Balin, and Filli and Killi for dinner. what happened was the trolls rustled his horses Filli and Killi and Balin were on watch and they sent Bilbo in to steal the horses back. Bilbo got caught and those stinking trolls hung him upside down. for six hours they argued their soup got cold and they argued over on how they were going to cook Bilbo, Balin, and Filli and Killi. as they were arguing the sun came out and they never saw their cave again because once sun hits a troll they turn to rocks.
Aaron Peavler/Geomodelrailroader Railroad Photography also you've forgotten they blamed each other for mistake their trolling voice that turn out Gandalf know how to throw the voice at them and caused them to fought each other until the sun came out
It's nice to see all the references to the Hobbit in the Lord of the Rings. I love the scene of Bilbo telling stories of his adventures, years before we'd ever get to see them in film.
I love how, immediately after the point where this video ends, the movie cuts to a scene of Merry and Pippin washing dishes, as Gandalf stands watch over them glaring down.
This is what I love most about Gandalf. He’s easily one of the most ancient, powerful, and wisest beings in Middle Earth. But his favorite pastime is making fireworks to entertain common folk.

After what happened at Erebor and Lake Town.. They pretty much stay up all night after that. Hhhhhaaaa
@ghostoftime1 the way frodo ask sam for Rosie to have a dance then sam starts dancing with Rosie if frodo pushed me over for dance i say why you goofball I will get you for this my guy hahaha
Note that both Gandalf and Saruman knew the art of explosives, but Gandalf uses it for fun while Saruman uses it for destruction.
Yeah. Because fireworks were mainly designed to be entertainment tools, not weapons.
According to history it is similar to that. The chinese were making fireworks instead of weapon but the west caught on and make a fire weapon out of it.
Gandalf dancing at 1:37 is my favorite thing 😂
My favorite is the fireworks with the kids
That wizard is probably as high as a kite.
Makes me wonder what the Valor are thinking seeing this
@@ericmonaco4509 maybe they would find It funny😂
*Valars sent Gandalf to Middle-Earth*
Gandalf: LET'S PARTAY!!!
Sam dancing with Rosy Cotton, he marries her in the L.O.T.R finale sequence.
"Rosie Cotton dancin'. She had ribbons in her hair. If ever I was to marry anyone, it would've been her." Samwise Gamgee, after the destruction of the Ring
William Radford yes and during this shot viggo kisses billy
Kili Tauriel Forever That's always all I can think about while watching the wedding scene lmao
Sean Astin= Samwise Gamgee, Doug Whitmore, Bill Herlihy, etc.
Frodo blatantly set him up with Rosie.
When Gandalf smokes the ship, there are two words that always come to mind: show off.
yeah just show off
@NYCPizzaman I see what you did there. 😏😏
Strong flex
He was totally using magic
@David McAninch it was also from the special effects for the movies, lol.
It's been 15 years since "Lord Of The Ring The Fellowship Of The Ring" was released
+Anna Koźlińska I didn't need to be reminded of how old I am, thanks! :-P
Fuck, I'm old.
depression for me as well. So old now and no girlfriend and no prospect of finding one either.
Nowadays it was released 17 years ago
Closing on 20 now
"Done!"
"You're supposed to put it in the ground"
"It is in the ground"
"Outside!"
"It was your idea!"
Flaninty KAAAABOOOOOM!
Jack Dauphinais AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
Fun fact: Billy Boyd (Pippin) didn't know the firework would explode so that's the actor's real scream lol
Do you notice how Rosie waited for Sam to dance with her? Never noticed that before! So cute!
She was eyeing him the whole time ❤️❤️
1:36 okay but why is nobody talking about how adorable that was
Kids just are adorable, there's nothing to do about it 🤷🏽
It's funny because the story he Told was true
1:44
Isn’t that Peter Jackson’s daughter?
The hobbit hair makes it even more adorable
The story he was telling to the kids happened in the hobbit an unexpected journey
Rich noso Oh I thought it was In Return of the king. YES IS WAS IN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY
Rich noso duh. people who read the novels knew so a long time ago. I remmber when I first saw the movie instantly I racalled the novel when he was telling the story.
Who knew I wonder if he later told them about the desolation of smaug and the battle of the five armies
Well one small part of it
The good news is that we actually see the three trolls still frozen in place exactly where they were 60 years later
I was still a bit ticked they had them talk in the actual scene it just made them goofy
That was the last story that those kids would hear from Uncle Bilbo.
I love how the party sequence shows Frodo as a young little hobbit full of life and joy among friends, neighbours, girls and uncle he loves. And the ring sucks all of this out of Frodo, traumatizes him that he never recovered. So heartbreaking.
Yeah, but he shared his experience with his uncle
Where is this sequence? 1:28?
What I love about this scene isn't just the fun of Gandalf and Bilbo but how it shows Sam's Growth as a character through the movie.
Here he's terrified of just LOOKING at the girl he likes and Frodo pushes him to her, and then at the end he sees her when he comes home and immediately gets up and talks to her. It's heartening to see how he's gone through so much and has finally reached the point where he can stand up and not be scared anymore.
I realize the significance of the Shire scenes (aside from world-building and just showing us the peace our heroes fight for later) is to also establish Frodo and Sam. Sam here is so nervous, shy and reserved. Frodo is cheerful and full of glee. When they return, Sam is bold enough to find love and run for mayor. Frodo on the other hand...
Also to introduce people to Hobbits. You need to understand the type of creatures they are. They are low key people who just want to smoke and eat, but the fate of the world comes down to four of them.
1:50 Gandalf's giddy laugh is the greatest thing about this scene.
The laugh of a man saying: "There's plenty more where they came from, kids!"
Love when Gandalf grabs Pip and Merry by the ears like he’s a disapproving nanny disciplining disobedient kids. 🤣
@khfan4life365 i read somewhere that Merry and Pippin were talking about the makeup they wore for that scene. when they came out of the makeup room, they were singing the Chim Chim Chim Cher-ee song from Mary Poppins lol.
3:30 that scream from Pippin haha
PumpkinPieMotherfukka it is a real scream because he didn't know the firework would explode 😂
I'd love to have that scream for a text message ring tone.
PumpkinPieMotherfukka
Apparently that was how he actually Screamed.
Cutest. Scream. Ever. Pippin is my favorite Hobbit along with Sam.
2:30 me at big family and friends gatherings.
Me too, especially my dad's side of the family.
Hahahah i know right
0:48 me.
Me with my mom’s side of the family.
Why was he hiding from these two?
The cuteness of the hobbit children listening intently to Bilbo’s story 😍😍😍😍😍
You have been productive` 😂😂
I keep on repeating that scene so hilarious
1:20 Bilbo tell the story of the trolls turn into a stone
Blue Bunny from the hobbit 1, yes
Forgot to mention that Gandalf had a hand in it too .
When this movie came out, I was in sixth grade and my teacher had recently read us the Hobbit. I was so thrilled to see the part where Bilbo is telling the story about the trolls, because even though I'd never read LotR, it was something from that universe I was familiar with.
I bet at Amazon they think "We need more armour, we need more weapons, more action, more..."
When really, P.J.'s depiction captures the most vital part that makes a story: Character introduction and build up.
I like to see Mary and Pippin try to use Fred and George Weasley's fireworks
*Merry
That would be amazing
@Stuart Hays OMG, THAT WOULD BE THE MOST HILARIOUS THING EVER!!!
0:44 WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT! it's like Frodo is doing the chicken dance
I know lol I would had said to frodo are you doing the chicken dance haha
2:16 "you have been productive"🤣🤣🤣 Bilbo's reaction 😂
Bilbo and those hobbit children are just the cutest, most adorable thing
1:02 *Frodo's a good friend. That's what a real bro and wingman will do for you.*
Longbottom leaf is the finest pipe weed in the South Farthing
Shouldn't this be in a Harry Potter comment section?
Well Neville did have a way with plants.
@@joaquincassagnetezcurra5875 welcome to weed cultivation...err Herbology class.
Professor Longbottom have you been at the pipe again?!
It's tobacco
I'm team Old Toby!
This kind of fantasy story telling is fascinating. It's just a peaceful evening at Hobbiton where the most evil things that could happen are fireworks shaped like dragons. The last act of a child before going into the deepest dungeon and facing a Balrog.
Great point.
This 2:40 scene is one of my favorite scenes of all three movies. So emotional.
Spihk Heartbust!? Spihk Heartbust Bozeman Hotmail Recipient Seen Bain Server who called Bozeman Hotmail Recipient ugly outside Bain Server track!
At 3:09 a bit of his inner Martin Freeman came out.
Avery 064 thought the fucking same!! ❤ 😂
and again with his classic Tim from the office look to camera 2:22
“Gandalf, my old friend, this will be a night to remember.”
1:49 I can't with Gandalf's laugh, he looks like those Grandpa's that is going to do something that gets him in trouble 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how Sam dances with Rosie! 🥰
2:42 love when music comes in.. beautiful moment in the movie, bittersweet for Bilbo.
1:08 what a true friend does to help out another. Sadly, that integrity doesn’t exist anymore :(
Bilbo hiding from the Sacksville-Bagginses is like me avoiding all my in-laws and extended family members I don’t like 😂
Ian Holm. He is an absolute legend. May he rest in peace. Thank you for playing the character who started it all
RIP Ian Holm, I'm almost 50 years old and just realized he was the priest in Fifth Element, the professor in The Day After Tomorrow, the android in Alien, and so many more memorable characters.
1:27 Peter Jackson’s kids Billy and Katie
my favourite part in LOTR ? the whole movie
Leonidasss123 hard to get past the first bit though. The beginning is my favourite part
Rest in Peace Sir... Thank you for making a great Bilbo :'(
Frodo and Sam are top ten movie bros. Frodo made things happen for Samwise before he got brave. Sam did him a solid by sticking by him no matter what. We all need a bro like the hobbits.
Rest in peace Ian Holm, may you find peace in the land to the West.
1:48 I like how excited Gandalf sounds taking those fireworks lol
I always loved Bilbo telling the kids his stories of the dwarves.
Ooooh, you can see Rosie glancing at Sam at 0:52. Even back then she was interested!
The best thing about their relationship, IMO. She saw his worth before he saw it in himself. She always wanted and loved him.
Gandalf got moves.
That dragon rocket was legendary.
12.09.1931. - 19.06.2020. Farewell Dear Bilbo. :(
Dat prediction on blowing smoke. The ring to be destroyed, and ship to sail to the white harbour (not sure bout the "white harbour"-name but thats how its translated to my language.) Not many know this, but Gandalf is old, old, old wizard to know a lot about darkness, Sauron, and all of the dark powers. He is SO OLD, and wise beyond comprehension of any human/hobbit/dwarfen mind. I love that character, its awesome
He’s an angelic being. All of the wizards in middle earth are
It's the Grey Havens in english
He's been around since the beginning of time. He's older than old. He's part of a higher race, the Maiar, and he was sent down to Earth/Arda to combat Sauron. So yeah, he's very old. Older than Earth itself
Pippin's girly squeal. 'Nuff said😎😏 Too cute and funny for my heart to take.
1:09 that only moment Sam will remember on Mount Doom...
That scream at 3:31 always gets me lol
Red Moon 96 the actor didn't think it would go off so that's his actual reaction !!
Red Moon 96 he also peed his pants!
Destiny Garcia i think I remember watching that in the special features lol
@@destinygarcia6613 Wait wait it was his actual scream lol
The music is soooooooo good. These movies are so good.
Pippen and Merry + Fred and George would be unstoppable....
still can't get over how cute the hobbit kids are
Frodo:Bilbo,watch out for the dragon!
Bilbo:What dragon?
Frodo:There!
Gandalf:Merry Brandyback and Pippin Took!!
I never noticed how different saruman and gandalf were in their use of gunpowder.
While gandalf used the gunpowder for fireworks that could bring happiness and joy to people, saruman used the gunpowder to create machines of war and bombs to destroy and kill.
1:37 Gandalf dancing with the hobbits is possibly the funniest shit I've ever seen
R.I.P Sir Ian Holm. May Valinor greet you with open arms.
R.I.P , master Baggins.. My dear friend I never met.. Such an iconic actor you were
It’s really sad but Bilbo’s party and the Green Dragon was pretty much the last time Frodo seemed genuinely happy until the end. He really was forced to hit the ground running :(
0:48 that guy always makes me laugh. XD
Lmao same idk why lol
Lol me too
I looked for this video just to find this guy laughing 😂😂
hes having a good time!
Merry & Pippin could've been best friends with Fred & George Weasley! 😂😂😂❤
1:19 Bilbo is reading a chapter to the young hobbits about the day three transient trolls tried to eat him, Balin, and Filli and Killi for dinner. what happened was the trolls rustled his horses Filli and Killi and Balin were on watch and they sent Bilbo in to steal the horses back. Bilbo got caught and those stinking trolls hung him upside down. for six hours they argued their soup got cold and they argued over on how they were going to cook Bilbo, Balin, and Filli and Killi. as they were arguing the sun came out and they never saw their cave again because once sun hits a troll they turn to rocks.
Aaron Peavler/Geomodelrailroader Railroad Photography also you've forgotten they blamed each other for mistake their trolling voice that turn out Gandalf know how to throw the voice at them and caused them to fought each other until the sun came out
Gandalf literally hit a boulder with his staff causing it to break and revealing the sunlight to the trolls ur all wrong, including Bilbo
I would love to have Pippin and Merry as my friends
It's nice to see all the references to the Hobbit in the Lord of the Rings. I love the scene of Bilbo telling stories of his adventures, years before we'd ever get to see them in film.
R.I.P Ian Holm. I will miss you. 😪
That heart to heart between Bilbo and Frodo ♥️
You can tell Martin Freeman picked up a lot of Ian Holm's mannerisms when he did The Hobbit movies.
Frodo being the ultimate wingman and helping his bro out.
Gandalf dancing lol I love it
love Merry and Pippin
Frodo the matchmaker
I love how, immediately after the point where this video ends, the movie cuts to a scene of Merry and Pippin washing dishes, as Gandalf stands watch over them glaring down.
