Sir Christopher was friends with Tolkien, they played chess, Lee read the books once a year for decades, and actually had Tolkiens blessing to play Gandalf if they ever made a movie. I'm glad Sir Ian ended up as Gandalf, he is better suited. But Sir Christopher was a superb Saruman.

It boggles my mind how great this casting was. Every single actor IS a representation of the characters for which they were cast. Vigos concentration and dedication, Sean’s worry and observation, Billy and Doms humor and mischief etc. etc., on and on. Just incredible.
Plus John Rhys-Davies’ (aka Sallah from Indiana Jones) balance of dignity and humor, and Orlando Bloom’s perfect blend of pride and panache. Peter Jackson et al really nailed the casting.
we need to start treating films like this again, honestly. Spending 15 months just on the filming, not to mention the background stuff before and after, is the kind of love and dedication you just don't see in blockbuster movies these days
I agree. It’s amazing how many poor decisions Hollywood executives make with bad scripts, directors with no passion, bloated budgets with somehow cheap looking special effects. However, Lord of the Rings was lighting in a bottle in every aspect.
The amount of consecutive time dedicated alone is impossible today, imagine if COVID had happened during any of the movies, and the writing strikes back to back
I seriously thought he was gonna regale us with a story on how he tripped into the water, banging his head on the raft and almost drowned…… Nope, total subversion in the best way.
Not only that, but Dominic and Billy being mischievous, Liv taking care of Orlando as good elves do, Viggo and Sean Bean bromance as kings of men, the respect Ian McKellan and Christopher Lee had for the film like the Ainurs their characters were, and the only dwarf John Rhys-Davies buying too much food for everyone shows just how character-like these actors were. Amazing cast!
The image of Sean Bean fully dressed as Boromir climbing over the mountains to get to the set is amazing! It probably helped him get even more into the character!
Love how Galadriel is portrayed slightly differently. She is the only elf left in middle Earth raised in Valinor. In sight of literal gods and the trees of Valinor. Participated in the war of the jewels and decided to stay in middle Earth. She seen alot.
Gildor of the house of Finrod was also a high elf, albeit of lower position than Galadriel. There was also Glorfindel too, and a few others like him who still dwelt in Rivendell. But they were few in number.
I find it interesting that Sean Astin genuinely became Sam for the whole cast. "I cant carry it for you, but I can carry you!" Just seems like a motto for Mr. Astin.
"The Lord of the Rings" demanded all the characters' participation to make it happen. Sam, IMHO, is the single greatest Hero of it. He never lost his heart, resolve, morality.
Viggo was actually Aragorn, Sean Bean was actually Boromir, Astin was actually Sam, McKellan was basically Tolkien, Rhys-Davies was actually Gimli, and Serkis was Gollum. Some of the best casting in cinematic history
My favourite movies of all time, but something about being a Kiwi makes me so proud of this. What LOTR did for NZ tourism is just huge. I feel so lucky to live in such a beautiful country, it is truly as mind blowing as the film shows it
Oh, this is just ONE of the extras on the extended edition dvds. Each movie comes with two full dvds of extras. And four full commentary tracks, each with 3 or 4 people on them. There's literally 12-15 HOURS of extras for each of the 3 movies. And they go WAY in depth in ways you can't imagine.
Can't believe this was filmed from 1999-2000. Feels like just yesterday these movies were blowing up in theaters around the world, but they were filmed even before cell phones became mainstream. Time goes way too fast
To think cinema peaked here. Truly spectacular. Nothing will ever come into comparison to what they have pulled off here with this trilogy. The grand scans of the story they had to tell, the limited time they had to film it and create it, the limited amount they got to film. Despite what they had to leave out or change, it goes without saying (I think) that this trilogy truly did Tolkien's story a great deal of justice and will never be topped
Except for the fact that they left out the Scouring of the Shire, which from a thematic standpoint is literally the whole point of the book. So for all the other amazing aspects, it will always be a B+, juvenile adaptation because all the most serious aspects were stripped from it.
It's not cinema peak for me but there's no cinema that has better more watchable interesting behind the scenes(not just this particular set of interviews). If you look around can probably find the video blogs from filming as well. Partly because of the scale of the trilogy but also just the time that it occured at. A transition point of broadscale location shooting and studio special effects; a transition point of media availability to internet.
Fëanor asked Galadriel three times if he could get a single straw of her hair but was denied all three times. Gimli asks for one and gets three.... really love this in silmarillion and Lotr because Fëanor wanted her hair only because he was thinking of himself, but Gimli is of pure heart and Galadriel saw this. Simply beautiful.
I mean, The WItcher sure looked like it was made with love for a season or two. Everything Amazon does is done with cynicism, there's nothing for that.
Viggo Mortensen is an astonishingly gifted actor. In any of the roles he has played, he IS that character, to the point that there are no gestures, expressions, or small actions that tie his performance to other portrayals.
A History of Violence... The Green Book... he just sort of disappears into roles and it's truly delightful to watch. I love Hidalgo and the Road, because they literally let him carry the entirety of the films. There are almost no shots that aren't directly about him, and they don't feel afraid of quietude or "not enough happening in this five seconds of film". I don't wanna write a whole dissertation, but I personally feel he's in the camp with Daniel Day Lewis in terms of actors, and I think a lot of people don't remember to remember him. Not that he's underrated or that people would deny him his due, just that people almost have to be reminded that he exists, even if they're fans.
@@SillySpaceMonkey - I would add to your admired actors Denzel Washington. If you doubt this, I would suggest you (re)watch ‘Philadelphia’. The scene where he and Tom Hanks are in Hanks’ apartment to plan strategy, and Hanks is reacting to an operatic performance shows Washington’s reaction to Hanks’ emotion. He does not move the smallest facial muscle (or any other) yet conveys understanding and deep empathy, and sorrow. Unless he has managed to project telepathically directly onto film,it is an amazing performance.
@judithgockel1001 definitely a beloved film and wonderful performances. As it pertains to my intended point, though, I think everybody gives Denzel his much deserved flowers. Denzel can be doing pretty much nothing and completely fill the space he's in. It's fantastic, and the scene you mentioned is a fantastic example of it. My thing with Viggo is that - for me - you kinda forget you're looking at him. I don't mean this as anything but the highest praise, but I feel like people watch him and forget that acting is happening? I'm not saying that the the best way, but I'm not really sure how to distill this nebulous quality. I can have gone to see a movie specifically for him, and there's a part of me that if asked on the way out of the theater, would pretty genuinely think, "oh yeah... that *was* Viggo.... nice!"
@@SillySpaceMonkey - in fact, I just remembered the nuclear submarine film in which both appeared. One could not have found Aragorn at all in the (forgot right word) armament officer. He WAS the character. Just one of many such examples. In any case, a terrific study in how it should be done.
I just love how everyone looks up and greatly respect Viggo and there is Kiran Shah just bossing him around lol. The group dynamic of the casts and everyone in the production is just beautiful.
Seeing the hobbits here and knowing that they still hang out together after all this time is really endearing, knowing how close Billy and Dom still are, with the podcast they have together and everything. And knowing all the love everyone involved had and still has about this project and the crew who worked there is really a beutoful human experience
Yeah I doubt the cast from The Rings of Power have life long relationships that stemmed from the living a year and half on the land. I’d imagine they all hate each other, just like how the producers / directors hate JRR Tolkien.
LOTR is the only media where I love watching behind the scenes videos and will watch them multiple times. It's both a blessing and a curse that a film franchise so beautiful and powerful will probably never be made again. Everyone involved really put their heart and soul into it and it's so apparent in the end product.
The stars truly aligned with this trilogy: powerful source material, powerful music score, perfect cast, ferociously dedicated team. It was truly a titanic effort of passion to bring those parts together! I don't think we will see another film endeavor quite like this ever again. It's simply a different era.
@@lord_scrubingtonDune ain't it. Man maybe I should go to college(my hollywood uncle director demanding I go to college before he hooks me up in the industry) so I can make films that really made an impact on me as a kid like master and commander , starship troopers, lotr, Troy, gladiator, star wars ep 1 and 2 (fuck yall I like those two alot).
as films I am really enjoying Dune, but I must admit it hasn't got the epic behind the scenes scale of LoTR I've been watching a lot of the behind the scenes stuff for LoTR recently and man, as much as I love dune they didn't go on location for a whole year filming it, that really what sets LoTR apart IMO, all the stuff you don;t see but just know is happening@@kahlernygard809
Ive watched hundreds of movies including movies from the 1960s until the present, and there are many memorable of them. But LOTR is definitely the best trilogy so far, and one of the best if not the best of all time. My favorite among the three is the Fellowship of the Ring...i still have goosebumps and tears watching this film until this day. The story, the lore, the music, acting, effects and casting is exceptional. A perfect blend of fantasy, drama, action, love story, friendship and a genius tint of comedy. The casting itself is almost perfect, almost everyone is perfect for their roles. Im still at awe at the roles of Galadriel, Gandalf, Sam, even Saruman and Aragorn... they are perfectly played on screen. I was lucky to watch the trilogy on the theaters twenty years ago, I don't think Hollywood can par something like this in the next 50 years.
Liv Tyler doesn’t get enough recognition. She’s incredibly beautiful, super sweet, bubbly and she doesn’t mind laughing at herself. I think people may mistake this for ‘ditzy’ but the thought she put into her character and her performance, reveals her true depth and brilliance. She knew that her part was ‘beefed up’ to put more emphasis on the romance between her and Aragorn but she purposely chose a more understated approach because she didn’t want to distract from the central storyline. She isn’t loud or overly dramatic, she just preformed with the quiet strength that perfectly serves the story but is still incredibly moving.(unlike some of the recent ‘in your frickin face’ performances that can be seen in a certain thing I personally call ‘The Billion Dollar Not-A-Fan-Fiction’ because the people who wrote it obviously have no love, or interest, for that matter, in the source material )
There will never be another trilogy like LOTR. This was a one of a kind experience, they truly put everything into this movie, all their heart, all their soul. This vision was only possible with this crew. No one else will ever recreate such a phenomenal art of film.
My greatest fear is anyone in Hollywood trying to recreate this movie. The Rings of Power is already a disaster. This trilogy is perfect, I don't think we can see something like this in the next 50 years
I think this trilogy will always be my favourite movies of all time. So perfect. It's insane how good the casting is and knowing that Viggo was cast as Aragorn at the very last minute really makes me believe that the stars aligned. He was perfect as Aragorn.
This is the last movie my family saw together in the theaters. 😢 Some of us got old, some grew up, some were born , and some past away.. Life goes on ❤
Now that I think about it it also might be my family’s last time seeing a movie all together. I distinctly remember watching the last one in theatre as a kid and thinking it ended like 3x only for it to start back up again
You can tell by the way they speak,they genuinely love each other .They became a family and their bond is visible on screen. One of the reasons the movie was so successful
I very rarely watch any movie more than once, but this series, plus the Hobbit series, are an annual event for me the last few years. Still make me laugh, cry, and wish that there were Hobbits, Elves, and Dwarves in our world.
The last one tho, I mean with skin colors differences we already got wars, I imagine what would happen if there are those races in this social media time, would be chaos
Watching this again, Peter Jackson created a safe and supportive working environment that encouraged friendships, respect and stability that the cast and crew carried with them forever. When we hear about all the rumours of producers and directors abusing and tormenting actors and actresses it is obvious when watching this that it is very unnecessary to be cruel to create.
Yesterday, I rewatched the extended version of the trilogy. Despite having seen it countless times over the years, the movie felt surprisingly fast-paced! More than 12 hours passed by as if it was only a couple.
The Lord of the Rings was the first , “Adult Movie” I ever watched as a child. My Nani and I watched it every time I got to visit her o the weekends. I was so young I never understood the depth of the writing, nor did I even know it was based on a book. When I grew up, I realized that some things impact you in different ways, and when you mature enough to understand why it stuck with you, respect and love for it and it’s memories grow even larger. I can only thank the cast and crew for creating THE core memory for me and my Grandma. 🙏
I actually have this exact same thing as my own core memory....my Nani and I had binge watched all three movies over two nights on our local cable channel nearly 18 years back! It was so much fun explaining the LOTR lore to her and sharing in the joy of watching these masterpieces
John Rhys-Davies and Orlando bloom squabbling as if they’re actually gimli and Legolas just makes my day. U can tell all these guys loved this crazy movie making progress, and it shows with how incredible these films are
Its fairly ignorant to assume a remake in the future won't be done. Technology advances exponentially. I'd love to see a remake in my 50s with much of the core from this trilogy being the crutch.
No point for a remake. The remake would just be overused CGI and black elves/dwarves. It would be a total disaster. The Hobbit movies and Amazon LoTR is what you would expect
Hoping to see John, Sean, and Elijah at Big Texas Comic con next month. They all had a once in a lifetime experience making this trilogy, even as celebrities. Glad Peter decided to do the extended version edition behind the scenes so we could all experience their journey. I was in junior high when they started principal photography in 99 and apparently some of the art department started concept design in mid to late 90s even. It’s crazy to think it’s been 24+ years since they started filming and some of the crew and cast are no longer with us.
Without doubt, the LOTR is the most perfectly executed motion picture trilogy ever created. Brilliantly acted, incredible special effects, spectacular set design and directed with a pace that never lapses Into boredom. Not to mention Howard Shore's epic soundtrack. The extended versions even amplify the original theatre releases. Every time I watch them, I see more depth -its like a never-ending tapestry of Cinematic joy.
Agreed. Everyone talks about the original 3 Star Wars movies, which I love but they pale in comparison to LOTR. The only thing I wish is they had been able to make the movie even longer to include more from the books. Looking forward to the new LOTR movie Peter will be producing and Andy Serkis directing called “The Hunt For Gollum”.
They make a eye catching movies, they sing a catchy songs, but what is not mention nor let the masses know: it is the decree of masonry that gives them their time on earthly stage. Talent is not cared about.
My dad used to read the Lord of the Rings to us every year as children. I read the Hobbit on my own. That turned into watching the movies every year after they came out. I still rewatch them every year. This year alone, I think I've watched them three times over. lol. They will never get tiresome.
I am so happy that I was alive and old enough to go watch these movies at the cinema back when they came out. The last 90s and early 2000s were some amazing years for cinema: Gladiator, LOTR, Star Wars, Titanic, Harry Potter etc.
I've read the books, and usually the movie doesn't do the books justice. In this case, I couldn't have been happier by the actors playing each role and how the films turned out. Phenomenal work.
They shot this film before there was social media. Could you imagine how different their experience would have been of instead of in their trailers bonding together, and building that chemistry, and just everyone else behind the scenes while eating and making that scene where they are “talking about each other behind their backs.” How different this film could have been, if it were shot in a different time. I’m so greatful it was shot in the era that it was.
At 24 years old, I barely watched the first movie and I cannot believe it took me this long to watch it!! I can see why so many people love this world so much, it’s truly incredible
I have watched the making of these films more than I’ve watched a lot of movies. Just amazing how these people from all walks of life come together and made something so impactful on people literally around the world.
@@alaia-awakenedIan Mckellen allegedly began to cry on the Hobbit because he had most of his scenes in front of a green screen and had to talk to a green ball. He broke down and said that this is not why he became an actor. Basically the story. Dont know if its true confirmed etc.
@@RobertDownedU_JrIt wouldn’t surprise me if it were true. It might cost a light of time and energy to produce real things, but isn’t it why humans are alive? Why we are here’s to experience the physical world and companionship. So what if it costs more time and energy. It’s not like we are really short of that. People can afford an extra 2 dollars to pay for the quality required in the cinema and purchases of films. And they damned well will for something that’s a masterpiece.
I got the Lord of the Rings Trilogy for Christmas 1975 and my life changed. I built my identity around the characters who were my role models. So much so my school teachers would regularly call my parents and beg them to encourage other interests. I was aliening or converting my entire peer group. It was everything to me.
I wish I could re-see the Lord of the Rings trilogy for the first time again.. I remember being 16 years old when the first one came out and watching it in an actual theater... 16 times. I skipped school too. And then when 2 and 3 came out... geez... probably saw both of those 30 times together. My teenage into adulthood years were Lord of the Rings and i regret nothing. 2001-2003 I think was thr first time I actually camped out to make sure I got tickets to be the first to see a movie.
This is priceless. How wonderful that they developed such real everlasting friendships on this set. All the stories they tell are just amazing. Dom’s impressions of John’s and the scale doubles’ accents are HILARIOUS!
This is without a doubt the best BTS ever made in this history if filmmaking. They truly embodied the LOTR. Although I wish they could have squeezed in Tom Bombadil I understand their reasoning for having left out the barrow wights and TB and his lovely wife
this trilogy is once in a century work. The closest we could appropriately get a remake trilogy is like... year 2100, when every person who remembered this trilogy in early 2000 has already passed away.
I know what you mean…But there is simply no need though. It’s so well done. If they wanna remaster and and detail and quality to the CGI they can easily do that, and nobody would object. But there’s no need to remake the movie.
You all saved my life while I was going through college... Every night I would fall asleep to Gandolf's fireworks at the shire. You all did so much for so many people that you don't even know by teaching them through the story. You gave me a community in the shire on my TV while I was struggling through isolation and too much work...
This was my favorite behind the scenes doc of the extended editions. By far my favorite part was Viggo talking about taking the boat down the river with Kieran Shaw and filming the bit fighting all the orcs. “Viggo… don’t worry about me” has lived in my head rent free for 20 years now.
The auburn haired lady, I’m sorry I forgot her name… she was saying she wrote the narration of Sauron and how the ring was lost. I absolutely Love that part! She is an amazing writer! ❤❤❤ Mad Respect!!

My favourite movies of all time, but something about being a Kiwi makes me so proud of this. What LOTR did for NZ tourism is just huge. I feel so lucky to live in such a beautiful country, it is truly as mind blowing as the film shows it
you know its an epic movie when the the behind the scenes is 2.5 hours long 😁
And not long enough!!!!!
And all of it is fun, not a single boring moment.
Oh, this is just ONE of the extras on the extended edition dvds. Each movie comes with two full dvds of extras. And four full commentary tracks, each with 3 or 4 people on them. There's literally 12-15 HOURS of extras for each of the 3 movies. And they go WAY in depth in ways you can't imagine.
I swear I was only watching 5 minutes of it, but I'm at the 1.5 hr mark. I really enjoyed this lol
Or they just did a lot of mistakes 😂

I love how Billy Boyd embodies Pippin. Right toward the beginning he's like:
"Woo! Second birthday!!!" 😄
Can't believe this was filmed from 1999-2000. Feels like just yesterday these movies were blowing up in theaters around the world, but they were filmed even before cell phones became mainstream. Time goes way too fast

To think cinema peaked here. Truly spectacular. Nothing will ever come into comparison to what they have pulled off here with this trilogy. The grand scans of the story they had to tell, the limited time they had to film it and create it, the limited amount they got to film. Despite what they had to leave out or change, it goes without saying (I think) that this trilogy truly did Tolkien's story a great deal of justice and will never be topped
LOTR is perfection, but film has not peaked. That said, getting a studio to pull this off today would be impossible.
Except for the fact that they left out the Scouring of the Shire, which from a thematic standpoint is literally the whole point of the book. So for all the other amazing aspects, it will always be a B+, juvenile adaptation because all the most serious aspects were stripped from it.
@@maxpower21c I did say they left out quite a bit
So far, film peaked with Interstellar for me
It's not cinema peak for me but there's no cinema that has better more watchable interesting behind the scenes(not just this particular set of interviews). If you look around can probably find the video blogs from filming as well. Partly because of the scale of the trilogy but also just the time that it occured at. A transition point of broadscale location shooting and studio special effects; a transition point of media availability to internet.

Fëanor asked Galadriel three times if he could get a single straw of her hair but was denied all three times.

Simply beautiful.

Imagine if The Witcher or The Rings of power had a team like this with passion and creativity and dream to make the best movie they can.
I mean, The WItcher sure looked like it was made with love for a season or two. Everything Amazon does is done with cynicism, there's nothing for that.
@@davidalan528 Cavill had the passion for it but basically no one else did.
@@davidalan528the last part made me howl😂😂😂😂😂 its so true tho
Viggo Mortensen is an astonishingly gifted actor. In any of the roles he has played, he IS that character, to the point that there are no gestures, expressions, or small actions that tie his performance to other portrayals.
A History of Violence... The Green Book... he just sort of disappears into roles and it's truly delightful to watch. I love Hidalgo and the Road, because they literally let him carry the entirety of the films. There are almost no shots that aren't directly about him, and they don't feel afraid of quietude or "not enough happening in this five seconds of film".
I don't wanna write a whole dissertation, but I personally feel he's in the camp with Daniel Day Lewis in terms of actors, and I think a lot of people don't remember to remember him. Not that he's underrated or that people would deny him his due, just that people almost have to be reminded that he exists, even if they're fans.
@@SillySpaceMonkey - I would add to your admired actors Denzel Washington. If you doubt this, I would suggest you (re)watch ‘Philadelphia’. The scene where he and Tom Hanks are in Hanks’ apartment to plan strategy, and Hanks is reacting to an operatic performance shows Washington’s reaction to Hanks’ emotion. He does not move the smallest facial muscle (or any other) yet conveys understanding and deep empathy, and sorrow. Unless he has managed to project telepathically directly onto film,it is an amazing performance.
@judithgockel1001 definitely a beloved film and wonderful performances. As it pertains to my intended point, though, I think everybody gives Denzel his much deserved flowers. Denzel can be doing pretty much nothing and completely fill the space he's in. It's fantastic, and the scene you mentioned is a fantastic example of it. My thing with Viggo is that - for me - you kinda forget you're looking at him. I don't mean this as anything but the highest praise, but I feel like people watch him and forget that acting is happening? I'm not saying that the the best way, but I'm not really sure how to distill this nebulous quality. I can have gone to see a movie specifically for him, and there's a part of me that if asked on the way out of the theater, would pretty genuinely think, "oh yeah... that *was* Viggo.... nice!"
@@SillySpaceMonkey - in fact, I just remembered the nuclear submarine film in which both appeared. One could not have found Aragorn at all in the (forgot right word) armament officer. He WAS the character. Just one of many such examples. In any case, a terrific study in how it should be done.
Watch The Road, he delivers an absolutely insane performance in that
I just love how everyone looks up and greatly respect Viggo and there is Kiran Shah just bossing him around lol. The group dynamic of the casts and everyone in the production is just beautiful.
Seeing the hobbits here and knowing that they still hang out together after all this time is really endearing, knowing how close Billy and Dom still are, with the podcast they have together and everything. And knowing all the love everyone involved had and still has about this project and the crew who worked there is really a beutoful human experience
Yeah I doubt the cast from The Rings of Power have life long relationships that stemmed from the living a year and half on the land. I’d imagine they all hate each other, just like how the producers / directors hate JRR Tolkien.
I’d pay a million bucks just to hang out with all the hobbit actors in The Shire at The Green Dragon.
@@ewjiml 😂you think so? And later on they produced the Hobbit?!😂😂😂
LOTR is the only media where I love watching behind the scenes videos and will watch them multiple times. It's both a blessing and a curse that a film franchise so beautiful and powerful will probably never be made again. Everyone involved really put their heart and soul into it and it's so apparent in the end product.
Imagine if the world were as wholesome as the lotr set. That would be beautiful.
"if more people cared for good food and cheer.."
Yeah beautiful and magical but also horrifying
For real. One of theeee most wholesome casts ever
It's beautiful how they all really loved each other. Like Sean Astin actually taking care of Elijah Wood, just like Sam and Frodo.
you know a movie is amazing if you watch behind the scenes of it over a decade later and get chills XD

The stars truly aligned with this trilogy: powerful source material, powerful music score, perfect cast, ferociously dedicated team. It was truly a titanic effort of passion to bring those parts together! I don't think we will see another film endeavor quite like this ever again. It's simply a different era.
Truly a timeless masterpiece. I hope we do see another one. You really can't buy something like this.
i reckon dune might come close, it won't surpass it tho
@@lord_scrubingtonDune ain't it. Man maybe I should go to college(my hollywood uncle director demanding I go to college before he hooks me up in the industry) so I can make films that really made an impact on me as a kid like master and commander , starship troopers, lotr, Troy, gladiator, star wars ep 1 and 2 (fuck yall I like those two alot).
as films I am really enjoying Dune, but I must admit it hasn't got the epic behind the scenes scale of LoTR
I've been watching a lot of the behind the scenes stuff for LoTR recently and man, as much as I love dune they didn't go on location for a whole year filming it, that really what sets LoTR apart IMO, all the stuff you don;t see but just know is happening@@kahlernygard809
Ive watched hundreds of movies including movies from the 1960s until the present, and there are many memorable of them. But LOTR is definitely the best trilogy so far, and one of the best if not the best of all time. My favorite among the three is the Fellowship of the Ring...i still have goosebumps and tears watching this film until this day. The story, the lore, the music, acting, effects and casting is exceptional. A perfect blend of fantasy, drama, action, love story, friendship and a genius tint of comedy. The casting itself is almost perfect, almost everyone is perfect for their roles. Im still at awe at the roles of Galadriel, Gandalf, Sam, even Saruman and Aragorn... they are perfectly played on screen. I was lucky to watch the trilogy on the theaters twenty years ago, I don't think Hollywood can par something like this in the next 50 years.
The real genius of Jackson as a producer is actually putting these actors in that situation. A gamble maybe, but a brilliant one.
Liv Tyler doesn’t get enough recognition. She’s incredibly beautiful, super sweet, bubbly and she doesn’t mind laughing at herself. I think people may mistake this for ‘ditzy’ but the thought she put into her character and her performance, reveals her true depth and brilliance. She knew that her part was ‘beefed up’ to put more emphasis on the romance between her and Aragorn but she purposely chose a more understated approach because she didn’t want to distract from the central storyline. She isn’t loud or overly dramatic, she just preformed with the quiet strength that perfectly serves the story but is still incredibly moving.(unlike some of the recent ‘in your frickin face’ performances that can be seen in a certain thing I personally call ‘The Billion Dollar Not-A-Fan-Fiction’ because the people who wrote it obviously have no love, or interest, for that matter, in the source material )
She comes across as so genuinely lovely. I adore her!
I literally love her
Our Queen of Gondor forever!
Ah yes, Liv Tyler contains many bubbles
Well in all truth other than the LOTR and possibly armageddon what other good films has she been in ? most of them are all shite
Who else watching in 2024
Billy celebrating his birthday twice is the most Pippin thing he could'e done 😂
There will never be another trilogy like LOTR. This was a one of a kind experience, they truly put everything into this movie, all their heart, all their soul. This vision was only possible with this crew. No one else will ever recreate such a phenomenal art of film.
My greatest fear is anyone in Hollywood trying to recreate this movie. The Rings of Power is already a disaster. This trilogy is perfect, I don't think we can see something like this in the next 50 years
It kills me studios will never green light anything like this again. 😢 best movies ever

@@Indian_gae_boiiDoesn't even compare
Elijah looks soooo beautiful in these movies! I don’t know how they did the makeup but it was perfect!
I think this trilogy will always be my favourite movies of all time. So perfect. It's insane how good the casting is and knowing that Viggo was cast as Aragorn at the very last minute really makes me believe that the stars aligned. He was perfect as Aragorn.
This is the last movie my family saw together in the theaters. 😢
Some of us got old, some grew up, some were born , and some past away..
Life goes on ❤
Now that I think about it it also might be my family’s last time seeing a movie all together. I distinctly remember watching the last one in theatre as a kid and thinking it ended like 3x only for it to start back up again
♥
Actually jealous.
What an experience these people had.
Aww don't be jealous please, dear one. God has beautiful things planned for your life - *Jeremiah 29:11 ✝️
You can tell by the way they speak,they genuinely love each other .They became a family and their bond is visible on screen. One of the reasons the movie was so successful
I very rarely watch any movie more than once, but this series, plus the Hobbit series, are an annual event for me the last few years. Still make me laugh, cry, and wish that there were Hobbits, Elves, and Dwarves in our world.
Me too, and I watch all the making of videos, I always end up in tears. Big sook, haha.
The last one tho, I mean with skin colors differences we already got wars, I imagine what would happen if there are those races in this social media time, would be chaos
Hugo Weaving being able to portray Agent Smith and his character in LOTR and be totally believable shows how great he is
Watching this again, Peter Jackson created a safe and supportive working environment that encouraged friendships, respect and stability that the cast and crew carried with them forever. When we hear about all the rumours of producers and directors abusing and tormenting actors and actresses it is obvious when watching this that it is very unnecessary to be cruel to create.
We will NEVER see movies made with so much love, care and respect for the original material again.
Those things don't even seem to be considered these days, it's more about what politics they can insert.
Do you play video games? Still a lot of love of the craft over there.
@@davidalan528that depends on who’s making it.
@@hitthetarget982 True enough, but you can’t say there isn’t still true love for the IP running through games like Hogwarts Legacy or Jedi: Survivor.

The Lord of the Rings was the first , “Adult Movie” I ever watched as a child. My Nani and I watched it every time I got to visit her o the weekends. I was so young I never understood the depth of the writing, nor did I even know it was based on a book. When I grew up, I realized that some things impact you in different ways, and when you mature enough to understand why it stuck with you, respect and love for it and it’s memories grow even larger. I can only thank the cast and crew for creating THE core memory for me and my Grandma. 🙏
I actually have this exact same thing as my own core memory....my Nani and I had binge watched all three movies over two nights on our local cable channel nearly 18 years back! It was so much fun explaining the LOTR lore to her and sharing in the joy of watching these masterpieces
John Rhys-Davies and Orlando bloom squabbling as if they’re actually gimli and Legolas just makes my day. U can tell all these guys loved this crazy movie making progress, and it shows with how incredible these films are
This is artwork that will survive generations... in 30 years when they remake this story, this work will be the yardstick!
I doubt that this film will ever be remade with live actors again. Too much effort, and I just don't see how this could be topped.
The Remake would be a mistake.
Its fairly ignorant to assume a remake in the future won't be done. Technology advances exponentially. I'd love to see a remake in my 50s with much of the core from this trilogy being the crutch.
A remake should only be made after 2050 if at all needed and this trilogy should serve as the building blocks for it.
No point for a remake. The remake would just be overused CGI and black elves/dwarves. It would be a total disaster. The Hobbit movies and Amazon LoTR is what you would expect
Hoping to see John, Sean, and Elijah at Big Texas Comic con next month.
They all had a once in a lifetime experience making this trilogy, even as celebrities. Glad Peter decided to do the extended version edition behind the scenes so we could all experience their journey.
I was in junior high when they started principal photography in 99 and apparently some of the art department started concept design in mid to late 90s even.
It’s crazy to think it’s been 24+ years since they started filming and some of the crew and cast are no longer with us.
Sean being Sam in real life during their shooting. THAT is TOTAL INVESTMENT & PASSION!!!!
Without doubt, the LOTR is the most perfectly executed motion picture trilogy ever created. Brilliantly acted, incredible special effects, spectacular set design and directed with a pace that never lapses Into boredom. Not to mention Howard Shore's epic soundtrack. The extended versions even amplify the original theatre releases. Every time I watch them, I see more depth -its like a never-ending tapestry of Cinematic joy.
Agreed. Everyone talks about the original 3 Star Wars movies, which I love but they pale in comparison to LOTR. The only thing I wish is they had been able to make the movie even longer to include more from the books. Looking forward to the new LOTR movie Peter will be producing and Andy Serkis directing called “The Hunt For Gollum”.
Hard to believe they all have aged 20+ years already

My dad used to read the Lord of the Rings to us every year as children. I read the Hobbit on my own. That turned into watching the movies every year after they came out. I still rewatch them every year. This year alone, I think I've watched them three times over. lol. They will never get tiresome.
I am so happy that I was alive and old enough to go watch these movies at the cinema back when they came out. The last 90s and early 2000s were some amazing years for cinema: Gladiator, LOTR, Star Wars, Titanic, Harry Potter etc.
I've read the books, and usually the movie doesn't do the books justice. In this case, I couldn't have been happier by the actors playing each role and how the films turned out. Phenomenal work.
They shot this film before there was social media. Could you imagine how different their experience would have been of instead of in their trailers bonding together, and building that chemistry, and just everyone else behind the scenes while eating and making that scene where they are “talking about each other behind their backs.” How different this film could have been, if it were shot in a different time. I’m so greatful it was shot in the era that it was.
You would get The Rings Of Power
At 24 years old, I barely watched the first movie and I cannot believe it took me this long to watch it!! I can see why so many people love this world so much, it’s truly incredible

It might cost a light of time and energy to produce real things, but isn’t it why humans are alive? Why we are here’s to experience the physical world and companionship. So what if it costs more time and energy.
It’s not like we are really short of that. People can afford an extra 2 dollars to pay for the quality required in the cinema and purchases of films.

I got the Lord of the Rings Trilogy for Christmas 1975 and my life changed. I built my identity around the characters who were my role models.

I wish I could re-see the Lord of the Rings trilogy for the first time again..
I remember being 16 years old when the first one came out and watching it in an actual theater... 16 times. I skipped school too. And then when 2 and 3 came out... geez... probably saw both of those 30 times together. My teenage into adulthood years were Lord of the Rings and i regret nothing. 2001-2003 I think was thr first time I actually camped out to make sure I got tickets to be the first to see a movie.
This is priceless. How wonderful that they developed such real everlasting friendships on this set. All the stories they tell are just amazing. Dom’s impressions of John’s and the scale doubles’ accents are HILARIOUS!

This is without a doubt the best BTS ever made in this history if filmmaking. They truly embodied the LOTR. Although I wish they could have squeezed in Tom Bombadil I understand their reasoning for having left out the barrow wights and TB and his lovely wife
this trilogy is once in a century work. The closest we could appropriately get a remake trilogy is like... year 2100, when every person who remembered this trilogy in early 2000 has already passed away.
I know what you mean…But there is simply no need though. It’s so well done. If they wanna remaster and and detail and quality to the CGI they can easily do that, and nobody would object. But there’s no need to remake the movie.

This was my favorite behind the scenes doc of the extended editions. By far my favorite part was Viggo talking about taking the boat down the river with Kieran Shaw and filming the bit fighting all the orcs. “Viggo… don’t worry about me” has lived in my head rent free for 20 years now.
