The Hobbit Panel Q&A with Dean O'Gorman and Aidan Turner at Boston Comic Con - Part 1

- Dean O'Gorman and Aidan Turner (Dwarves Fili and Kili of The Hobbit) answer fans' questions at Boston Comic Con on Sunday, August 4. The video starts shortly after they sat down. The camera bounces around a bit so apologies for that. On a personal note, I have to say that Dean and Aidan are incredibly sweet, genuine, down-to-earth guys. They really seemed to enjoy meeting/chatting with the fans. And they were truly appreciative and touched by the gifts given to them as well as the show of support and enthusiasm for their work.

"My mom warned me not to say this" FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WILL YOU ALL LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHERS CHILDREN I MEAN JESUS
Dude it's moments like these that I start to feel sorry for actors. Luckily someone got back on the relevant topics
I feel like this crowd is making them feel really awkward. They seem new to the whole "fangirl" thing. Like they aren't used to getting so much attention. It's sweet.
love how they remembered the names of the fans, really awesome of them :P
man i laughed so much Dean and Aidan are so funny :D but the little girl at 25:00 was really cuuuuuuute :3
Adorable!
oh....look so fun
Wow, there are some seriously mean comments going around. Worse than usual. :(
Wow...worst Fans ever...
what the girl says in the minute 12:08? SOMEONE PLEASE!!!!
angelhbkghellen she says when do you two plan on getting married
thank you
that girl at 12 mins.....shiiiit the second hand embarassment. i had to stop the video, walk away, breathe, then come back.
These guys seem like so much fun to be around. Would love to just casually hang out with them. And even though I do acknowledge how beautiful they both are, I also agree the fangirling in some cases is absolutely riddiculous and pathetic. Like, where the hell is your dignity, girls?
So true. I mean, I think I can't really avoid finding them very charming, they have a great sense of humour and seem overall just lovely. Of course I'd love to meet them or get to ask them questions. And I can't say I wouldn't smile like an idiot on one or two occasions. But hey, we're old enough to know how to behave, right? They're still human beings, not freaking pastries behind a shop window.
@@Ginnocently Exactly-!!!! I completely agree. It's pretty ridiculous
Ginnocently o
Lol beautiful ?they are handsome. Men are handsome and women are beautiful.
Can we please all stop assuming girls only watch The Hobbit because they're fangirling over the actors? Also female, I love all of Tolkien's works and I love the films, but I'm not into that. I think it's more accurate to say this is what *both genders* of people *at comic con* are like, thanks internet
Thank god someone said it, we’re getting a bad rap here omg 😭😭
Omg this crowd is extremely obnoxious. Especially after the 10:45 mark, jeeze. Good on these guys for being good sports.
I said after the 10:45 mark is when they get especially obnoxious.
Never mind, don't worry about it :)
that 70% of the internet question... i cringed so hard...
The OTPs that are made on Tumblr and on fan fictions STAY on Tumblr and on fan fictions.
ohitsdaniella Seriously...
***** It's totally cool! I do write it but I don't write shipping fan fictions.
Sorry why is everyone being mean to LOTR/Hobbit fangirls? I'm proud to be a fangirl. Don't judge us on what the samll minority of us do. If people want to ship people, let them. But i don't think they should have said that to Aidan and Dean, keep that in your head.
OMG, I love these guys! I love Aidan's smile, it just lights up his face, and he's almost always smiling. He also has beautiful eyes, they always have a sparkle to them. He's such a wonderful actor!
I wish they had assigned people as monitor(s) for the questions like they do at other conventions when actors attend. Basically, people would line up, tell the monitor their question and the monitor would either approve it and let the person ask the actors or disapprove it and not let them ask. It's mainly to avoid people asking awkward, too personal, or uncomfortable questions/requests. Majority of the time it's "Can I have a hug?" or the more awkward questions that wouldn't be allowed to ask. I've had friends at conventions that had really good questions before that just barely missed their chance to ask because the panel time was taken up with "Can I have..." or "Can you do..." questions or spending the time to avoid awkward questions while trying to be polite. (Which Dean and Aidan did very well when face with it, I am very impressed.) Suggestion to Boston Comic Con, question monitors are not only good for actors (and also makes them feel comfortable) but for other fans who miss asking their questions due to awkward ones taking up time.
These guys are just great. I don't think I could sit in a room full of people whilst the fan girls laughed at EVERYTHING I did like "*giggle* he's drinking water OMFG giggle giggle giggle" it would do my head in. Only the plus side, they both seem pretty chill and down to earth which you don't get to see in many actors anymore :) Kili and fili are my favourites !!
i have absolutely nothing against people doing their own thing, it's none of my business, but for the love of all that is sacred, don't go to a q and a just to ask something that you know will make somebody uncomfortable, they don't deserve to be treated like that, just allow them to remain blissfully in the dark and refrain from creeping them out. (sigh) now that's over with well done these two for handling such an embarrassing situation like pros, you could almost see the silent dialogue in their body language, Aidan looked like he wanted to panic before Dean stepped in with the sarcasm, Dean himself almost looked quite amused to sort out the problem. Again, please don't go around freaking out innocent actors. and lastly before i end this lecture, isn't it great to see people whose characters are friends and who're also friends in real life?
This whole interview made me laugh like crazy but there is one question I always hated hearing in an interview... When they ask two guys about the whole "OTP" between two male actors... I don't know.. It just seems so rude and inappropriate.. I have nothing against gays srsly, I have my own gay OTPs but insinuating that to actors or actresses who probably is privy to those sort of things... It's really pissing me off.. Luckily Aidan and Dean simply dealt with it with a grain of salt... Love these two^^
My god. Do many fangirls! Dean and Aidan were awkwardly laughing like "heheh *whispers* Dean lets find an escape route!" Although if I were there, id be just as fangirly (is that even a word?!) If not more fangirly (it's now a word) than them. Aidan and Dean looked so awkward! They handled it well though.
can I just say AIDAN..
So much second hand embarrassment. Bless these guys, they are so adorable
they're both so hot omg! :D *____*
I don't get why people keep asking actors - especially non-british actors if they like Dr Who?! Whaaat is the point? They've got nothing to do with it and the closest they have been to it is a tv without color and Sylvester.
Can someone list the times the OTP fangirl question took place so that I can skip it...? I get second hand embarrassment so easily that I can't even bring myself to watch it, but I want to watch the rest of the Q&A because these guys are adorable and hilarious.
02:38 "Hi, uh, I was wondering, uh, do you think, uh.."- "No". Hahaha I guess you said that, that made me laugh. I must admit some of the questions were so bad, it was a bit painful to watch. But thanks for sharing anyway :-)
Thanks so much for posting. Must say, I feel a bit embarrassed re: some of the audience behavior here, though. I'd *like* to think that a US audience could be more respectful. Sorry--jmo. The guys really get extra gold stars for being so patient and so very kind.
They handled every question with class and suavity-- even though most of the questions (especially from females) were... horrifyingly embarrassing to have to watch/listen to.
They handled that so well. I respect their charisma as well as their acting ability now.
True Cat None of them were "horrifyingly" embarrassing - what an over-reaction. They're grown-ups - they can take a funny question about getting married with good humour (which they did). Most of the questions were fine, and some of them were good. So many comments here from 'holier than thou' folks - it's just fandom, people!
I'm not talking about O'Gorman or Turner. I'm referring to the crowd. There is supposed to be a level of sense in a question, no matter how "funny" it was trying to be.
So, in my opinion, I find it horrifyingly embarrassing.
What? What kind of shite was that? 70% of the internet?
American Accents.... -_- Whenever I get sick of my nasily Kiwi accent, I listen to American's and I'm greatful for a month (no offence to you 'Mericans out there :-P
LOL i feel your pain, its the same with British accents. I just gotta listen to an American and then i suddenly feel so much more grateful....... XP
I love British accents!!!!
Heather McDowell LOL well u ain't heard all of them :P.... and your not around them 24/7 I find myself getting tired of my very own voice and British accent sometimes, it get's tedious XP
Haha I would prefer to live with them 24/7 then live with New Zealanders :-P
There are so many American accents, being such a huge country. Which specific accent? I find some regional accents in America really irritate me, and some don't. (I'm an American btw. But my grandfather was British and had the craziest Cockney accent that was so fun to listen to.)
That aside, I love listening to the standard Kiwi accent. I think it's a shame that with all the TV shows that have been filmed in New Zealand for American consumption, so few of them are filmed with actors speaking with a Kiwi accent. Like there's something wrong with Americans hearing a Kiwi accent? It seems silly to me.
Are your characters ever going to be as majestic as Thorin
hahahhahahahah
but really, the question about OTP was absolutely inappropriate -.- i absolutely have no objections against gayness but to ask an actor, who acts the BROTHER of another actor, if they will get married is totally wrong and NONE of the fan's business. If two actors will get married then they will publish it if they want to but did this girl or woman really expect an answer like "oh yes, we're already engaged and think about marriage"? to ask a question like this and causing the actors to get uncomfortable is just bad and disrespectful. that's just what i think about that.
I
I'm so in love with Dean and I just love their humor.
2:51 Oh my God!I couldn't stop laughing! So what Aidan practically meant is
"One does not simply attempt to out-majesty Thorin Oakenshield..."
Love those two xD Thanks for uploading this!!
Omg,Aidan is soo adorable
***** Dean too~
+SpaceGal yup
Like seriously Aidan is just a dream.. I love him
How does one even be as attractive as they are, like damn son.
literally so in love with Aidan Turner
Well he doesn't give 2 shits about you hahahhaha. Stupid twilight fangirl. You're a joke.
zzzzImTired I'm smelling some frustration over here...being rejected recently? Don't worry man, time will help with the impulsive anger too.
cool....
I feel sorry for these guys! Imagine you're there to promote your hard work and potential fans ask ignorant questions... Not really fans at all. Just sheep. But Turner and O'Gorman handled it all with class and humour. These twats of audience members were lucky.
"amazing gift" and Dean spitting out his water made my day.
i felt so much second hand embarrassment when the girl asked when they were getting married...
I drank a bit of powerade right before the parasites question and about spit it right back out
such good timing
People keep saying that this Aidan Turner is me...But he can't be...His hair isnt glorious like mine.
Ur dead sooo....
Sé que es mucho pedir pero...pueden ayudarme poniendo los subtitulos? Puedo leer ingles, pero no entiendo mucho cuando hablan todos juntos...please!!!
Their personalities are hilarious! They remind me of my own teenage sons, always joking and cutting up.
What did Aidan say about the piece of paper? What did he say someone wrote on it, I could not understand what he said? This is the best comic con panel vid I've ever seen..so funny and good and the quality and sound is very good. Thanks to the poster.
+Sparta 64 Never mind..saw the answer below.
They were both great as Fili and Kili
They are both so charming and nice! But these fangirls really annoy me...
Sorry, but... I really hate when someone mention gay couples or something like when it's about the history of Tolkien. It's an amazing history with full of true friendship, respect and human values. It's not about the gayness! Never were and never will. It's about friendship when there were true people without fake.
There are fangirls who can't understand the values of the story and I really feel sorry for them because it means they are so poor. Oh, don't get me wrong! There's nothing wrong with being gay.
That's all.
Ian Mckellen didn't seem to think there was nothing to the gayness and the man lived this source material every day for 6 years collectively (rough estimation combining the 3 trilogies so pardon is that is a bit off). And so don't MILLIONS of others who read/watch the same source material as you and look beyond obvious and into the unspoken. Not everything is default straight or spelled out in an author's works. A number of character's sexualities were never defined outright leading people to believe, for example, Bilbo is either asexual or remained a bachelor in a British like country side (where he could've been judge more harshly for more than just his odd behaviors and adventure goings) because he was gay and didn't want to marry. Not a big deal one way or the other if the characters are or are not gay in any media including LOTR/Hobbit. And clearly in this video, the question seemed VERY much a teasing jab, a joke at the fandom/fans, not overly serious. And just because someone likes couples in a story (real or made up), doesn't mean they don't also comprehend the plot/values of it.
When an author makes a story, it is open to interpretation.
Haha this is soo funny, and awsome XD Im like crying from it. XD
what was aidan laughing at in the beginning?
Aidan turner
Thank you! The other copy floating around on here is just a bit too quiet for me, so this is really fantastic.
They're both so goofy I love them.
"Well they carry the pipe weed"
I was laughing so hard when watching this whole thing and i was supposed to be asleep.
I'm german so I didn't understand everything and I guess I also didn't get the point why you are all so outraged about something a fangirl said. Is it because someone asked when the two will getting married? I would be very grateful if someone could explain it to me!
I think the majority of the annoyance is specifically at that question on when the two will be getting married. Mostly that it's in poor taste and it's presumptuous. It also perpetuates the myth that if two men are close friends, something sexual must be going on. Asking a question like that, even as a joke, to actors on a panel is also rather inappropriate. That girl didn't know them personally and didn't know if they'd take it as a joke or if it would upset or embarrass them. Ultimately, it was in poor taste and showed some poor social skills.
Thank's for your explanation!
Happy to help. People sometimes forget that just because someone's famous, it doesn't mean we are allowed to know everything in their personal lives.
aidan ! ya sexxxxxy feller......xoxox
Thank you so much for posting this! I can't get enough of Dean and Aidan, they're just too damn amazing! :-)
I'm not sure of what will be on the third movie but I've read the book and I suppose on the third movie, Smaug's attack on Lake Town will be there (well duh) and there is still a goblin war. Don't forget, when Gandalf was captured, he saw hundreds of orcs marching for war ;D
favs
OMG. This was hilarious. I love their sense of humor
UGH someone needs to tell some of the more obnoxious fans there about tumblr, so they can get all of their opinions out without making the Hobbit fandom seem like a network of pervs. I get so embarrassed when they ask questions like that... :/
awesome video!!!
I love how Aidan loves babies and kids.
When the girl asked ''when do you plan on getitng married'' I didn't know she meant that they should get marrie dot each other, I thought it was just in general, to anyone.
someone should screen the questions in these sessions
like, make a full-time job out of it
-i'd actually volunteer to do it, no payment other than the actors being comfortable required, but y'know. halfway 'round the globe and all that-
dean is so funny
01:08 I think it isn't Filis sword because it has been buried with him
i am sure they know the audience just love them, i kinda like the easy going vibe of this panel tho, i have a feeling they enjoyed too. i don't know where the embarrassment is >_>
wow I would love to get a "happy birthday" from dean and aidan!
Damn! That's some darn suspicious bed hair guys... ;-)
From 24:40, what is a man's question? I dont know why Adian, Dean, and people are laughing so hard. My English listening is not that great, so pls help me :)
Ariel Dayoung Kim He asked, "How big were your parasites?"
Dashti1000Days omg haha yeah he got the biggest parasites among them. Haha thank you :)
I'm seeing all the comments saying stuff like, "Omg the fans were so rude!" Can anyone tell me where the fans were rude? I did hear some questions that had nothing to do with the books or the movies or their characters, and I did get confused, but that's all I got from this. Also, I think people shouldn't full out judge the way people react to meeting their idols. You never know, maybe some of these girls have been watching their work for years and that could be why they're crying. It's understandable why people cry when they meet their idols; because they've probably only have ever seen them through screens, and to physically see your idol in person is a lot for some people. I know I would probably tear up and stutter out of nervousness, and probably cry hours after...
but I wouldn't have a panic attack as some of these girls were claiming.(Again, people are different. Some people have more anxiety to meeting their idols than others.)
I do believe there are boundaries though when it comes to questions and how some people react.
So, where specifically are the fans being as rude as the comments are claiming? All I really got was a couple fans made some comments, but that's about it.
P.S: Dean and Aidan did "handle" the crowd well.
9:13 I have that argument with people too XD
12:00 that woman's qs made me cringe...why would u ask that
Hi! Could please someone tell me which is the question in 7:40? I can't understand. Thanks! ^^
She asked if they were Dr. Who fans. (I know its a little hard to understand her heavy accent)
Gabrielle Anderson Oh! Thank you so much *-*
Oh wow the last answer xD
OK, so this may be an annoyingly common question, but how does a fan find a panel like this to go to? I would love to find one myself, finally, and go, but I have no clue how. Any advice from someone who has?
If you're referring to appearances by Dean and/or Aidan, I recommend you follow Hobbit/LotR-related sites such as The One Ring and Middle Earth News, along with their twitter accounts. They stay on top of current news pertaining to The Hobbit cast members, including fan convention appearances. Both Dean and Aidan have fan sites and will share the same info. News is pretty quiet right now. To my knowledge, there are no scheduled U.S. appearances for either of them in the near future. Dean, however, is scheduled to attend HobbitCon in Germany in April. Hope that helps. :)
Susan Marie It does help, thanks a million!
I have the dame dream :')
lol @ aidan's party cup hahaha
Thanks SO much for putting this up, love those two:D
I'd love to meet these guys :)
ITS PRONOUNCED SM-AW-G!!!!!!
What were they laughing at at the start?
How much can those guys drink?!
hE HAS A SLURPEE CUP H E L P
10:45 ROUND ONE!
Who can help me.. What does the t-shirt say??
It says ´I have failed this city´, It´s from the TV-show Arrow.
0:44 what was in the paper that aidan showed?
Someone wrote the word 'coc*' on it. He was being a silly goofball :)
What the fuck was the Gaelic question? "Do you speak your native language? Yes? Wanna hear me completely mangle it? My great great grandmother's aunt was from Ireland!"
