![Lord Of The Rings Reaction | Fellowship Of The Ring *EXTENDED EDITION* [2/4]](/img/tr.png)
It's not just a movie. It's three movies. Each longer than the last. And BTW, the greatest achievement in film history. Director Peter Jackson cemented his legacy with this trilogy.
🤫
Then nearly ruined his legacy with his subsequent trilogy 😂
@@Ottawajames not his fault though, His studio forced him to film 3 movies
@@Ottawajames To quote Stannis Baratheon: "The good does not wipe out the bad, nor the bad, the good."
@@Ottawajames He didn’t… He wasn’t even supposed to direct the prequel trilogy in the first place… He was pulled in at the last minute, when Guillermo Del Toro left the project just few weeks before the shooting began and PJ didn’t get the time to do pre-production work like he did for the LOTR trilogy, so he had to rely on CGI and Del Toro’s vision and script changes…
According to JRR Tolkien, Hobbits did tend to live to 100 as often as not, but Bilbo also hasn't aged a day in the last sixty years due to the Ring. It gave Gollum "unnatural long life" and kept him alive for five hundred years.
Oooooooh ok! I thought he meant it gave the little ugly thing down in the cave 500 years.
@@CampCrystalCharlie You heard right. Gollum WAS the "little ugly thing".
But it also extended Bilbo's life the sixty years he had it. That's why he didn't "age a day."
It's not shown in the film, but in the book Gandalf is researching rings for 17 years. So there is a giant time leap between "Keep it secret, keep it safe" and "Is it secret? Is it safe?"
Frodo is 33 when we see him at Bilbo's party, but 50 when he leaves the Shire with the ring
In the books yes, in the movie, it isn't supposed to seam like 17 years. Its told differently, to keep the viewer engaged with the characters. Otherwise they would have to change actors several times during the movies(except Frodo as he would appear young because of the ring) and explain time passage. That is one of the reasons earlier adoptions of the book just didn't work out or where straight up weird and messy.
@@noxlupi1 I’m pretty sure the OP knows this, he just threw it in as an interesting fact.
@@WanderingRoe yes I reckoned he did, I just elaborated on it, to add to the info.
Nah bro... you are about to get LIT off this shit. Youre a big RPG fan? Well you can thank Tolkien for pretty much mapping the way for all fantasy game developers, fantasy writers and movie directors of our age hahaha. You are already paying mad close attention. Let it consume you man, this is real human heart stuff. Tolkien wrote a generational and timeless masterpiece, and it will connect with the human heart and its trails and tribulations no matter when its watched. Peter Jackson smashed this trilogy. Subbed for this journey.
I'm shocked how none of my friends forced this movie on me knowing my love for RPG's. This is amazing and I'm looking forward to this journey xD
You are aware there is a Lord of the Rings MMO, right?@@CampCrystalCharlie
@@dininelbourne I've been playing it since beta, it's been around a long time, but it has a good player base and it's stuffed with lore.
The voice at the beginning is Galadriel - She’s older than the sun & moon, learned all from ALL the Valar (beyond angels), that was possible to be taught from them. she always knew there was more to know, to learn and more to create and had a drive to visit the homeland of her forefathers. To the hitherlands. Middle Earth. Where the elves truly were meant to live and mentor mankind for thousands of years so men could be fully ready to take the reigns in being the stewards of the world.
Cool blind reaction! Hope you will enjoy it!
As a side note, the original story is from J.R.R. Tolkien, who wrote these in the 1950's, and started imagining this fictional world even earlier than that while being an officer in the trenches on the french front in World War 1.
Most of this fictional world was conceived as a canvas for his invented languages, as he was a brilliant professor of philology and ancient languages in oxford.
His work is widely considered as the foundation of modern fantasy and most of what came after is heavily inspired by it, hence why you can relate on many aspects of it from the fantasy rpg genre. Warcraft, warhammer, harry potter, just to name a few, all have obvious similarities to Tolkien's work, as he established the base for this genre, itself inspired by old english litterature and germanic mythologic tales.
The movies are a very small window on this world, but are nonetheless brillantly executed. Note also that each episode of the lord of the rings are actually part of one epic story altogether, splitted in 3.
But again this story is in itself only a part of the whole legendarium that spans millenia in this universe.
Very few works of fiction are as well fleshed out as this one, and none as well studied since so many decades.
And last but not least, even thought it is a work of fiction, it is also a very deep reflection on human nature, on corruption and of the valor of humankind, of hope, of the great power of friendship and courage through hardships, very reflective of the author's experience in war and of its faith. Again I hope you will enjoy it.
Every MMORPG, RPG, and fantasy world was based on this, either directly or indirectly. Tolkien was the grandfather of the genre. ;)
Freaking nice!!!!!
3:58 "It's like Philology almost..."
Dude stone-cold nails the author in the first 5 mins!
Get ready to be bombarded by some lore, my man. This is arguably the greatest tale ever written in it's entirety.
I'm looking forward to it
except not in its entirety at all. leaves out a ton from the books.
Tolkien, (The OG of all Authors) was a veteran of the First World War and many other battles such as The Battle Of Somme etc. his works of art were to give back to the England as a form of restoring lost mythologies that he himself was a master of since he was a top professor of philology at Oxford.
He did ALOT of his writing while in the trenches during WWI during small “breaks” while down in those trench forts built into the ground. And while he eldest son was in the Second World War; his Lord Of The Rings writings was strictly created above all else to give his eldest something to read while stationed wherever he was stationed.
I forgot that part. They sent letters back and forth about it all the time. He was also the one and only son that actually protected his fathers legacy and work.
A lot of his other work were put together BY his son after his father passed away.
It’s well worth to react to the documentary behind the scenes film the director and crew and cast created together as well as the interview with the son Christopher Tolkien who you get to sort of enjoy a nice indoor and outdoor chat for like what came to about 1-2 hours of wonderful footage from an era that really must not be forgotten.
His work shed a light on things like The Finnish Kalevala, Norwegian Elder Edda, The Welsh Mabinogion, The Norwegian Nibelungen, The Indian Bhagvagita & Several Irish Folklore + other Cultural things! The man also restored and translated ancient relics for the governments as one everyone trusted. Much of what’s in our dictionary come from his efforts as well.
Anytime he spoke & even posted several comments into the paper as an editorial or response to certain issues as a very involved man for the world and the environment everyone turned their head to listen to him as everyone knew his worth and respected him greatly. His works show how NOT to glorify war; shows in the films if you pay close attention while watching the next films.
Sharing what you know now via the after thoughts at the end of the second film! Remember. Extended edition. There is a lot missed out on especially in the second movie regarding Boromir backstory which there is much more in the books but the films WANTED to keep more but the cinemas and Harvey Weinstein literally harangued him into making a “theatrical cut” which is why you have two versions.
The real version and the “theatrical cut”. It was all to make more money for the company that is the theatres/cinemas.
To get more showings in per day during the year. And believe me. People were camping outside and travelling the country to watch it MORE THAN ONCE.
His creations literally lead to inspiring the most currently famous books games & movies we all literally wouldn’t have enjoyed and be touched to our souls core without him and his spiritually connected brilliance. That and he was a philologist professor at Oxford first and foremost which covers so many things.
Not just linguistic. The man was a true genius and Jack of all trades but ultimately LOVED the simple life.
The inspiration for Lord of the Rings was not any war, but author J.R.R. Tolkien's love of language. Especially Welsh, Finnish and Old English.
He lamented the loss of any true English folklore, that was wiped out after the Norman invasion of 1066, so Tolkien wrote many books on these new "legends" he came up with himself. Much of which is centered around three languages he fully developed himself. Two Elven languages and Dwarvish., Númenorean Adunaic, Black Speech(warped Numenorean and elvish)
They all have syntax, vocabularies, and a whole writing system that can be learned as the Tengwar alphabet is moreso to match with the spoken elvish rather than one to one for other country’s alphabet. Hundreds of people worldwide speak elvish fluently. Tolkien did draw upon his personal experience in the trenches of World War ONE, not Two, as inspiration for some parts, most notably, the Dead Marshes that Frodo and Sam and Gollum pass through in The Two Towers. But war was not the inspiration for the entire series.
World Of Warcraft. Elder Scrolls, Oblivion, Elden Ring, Skyrim, Harry Potter, Diablo, Zelda, D&D, especially Warhammer + DragonLance and so forth wouldn’t have. Existed without taking giant inspiration from and or completely ripping off from Tolkien. Many great documentaries to react to about him also more about him and AWESOME stuff from the hours & hours of behind the scenes documentaries from the DVDs of the movies which are also on RUclips & I can send you a playlist to react to from top to bottom on the channel called Pajasek99, FlowState reactions is already posting stuff from the awesome documentaries/BTS content!

Let’s explore Gandalf even deeper now. - Tolkien kept the Norse/Finnish/Welsh/Irish mythology alive. Magical rings, Gandalf (Staff elf in old norse and Rohan’s Rohirric Éotheod language.), Gandalfs outfit (Ødin), Gandalfs title 'the grey wanderer' (Ødin), Shadowfaxe (The horses of day and night Rhimfaxe and Skinfaxe), Trolls, elves, dwarves etc.
* Ødin had a legendary horse, Sleipnir, who had eight legs and was said to be one of the greatest horses known to the gods. Gandalf had Shadowfax, who had no equal among horses in Middle-earth and could understand the speech of men.
* Ødin’s legendary gear-the spear Gungnir and the ring Draupnir-could have influenced Gandalf’s legendary sword Glamdring or, more likely, the magic staff he carries, while the ring possibly influenced Gandalf’s possession of the ring Narya (Sturlson 145).
* Gandalf & Ødin both receive new wisdom as a result of sacrifice, as Gandalf is reincarnated after his fight with the Balrog, and Ødin gains power and wisdom after hanging himself on the tree Yggdrasil for nine days (Sigfusson 80-85).
* One of the most apparent ways in which Gandalf and Odin are alike is that they both take the shape of an old, grey beggar with a wide-brimmed hat and grey cloak when they wander the mortal world and deal with the inhabitants (Pitts 7).
* Gandalf and Ødin are virtually reflections of each other, as can be observed through examining their gear and animal companions, the way they sacrificed themselves and were rewarded with wisdom, and the fact that they walk the earth as old men in tattered clothing.
The Renowned Steeds of Gandalf and Ødin: both have renowned horses and staves with magical properties. Ø carries the legendary spear Gungnir, which is said never to miss its mark when thrown (Sturlson 145); however, he also carries it as his staff when he wanders the earth as an old man.
In the Poetic Edda, the Valkyrie Sigrdrifa advises Sigurd about the magical application of runes and tells him that there are runes inscribed on the tip of Gungnir (Sigfusson 291). This spear could be a parallel to Glamdring, the sword that was forged for the Goblin wars but is most likely influential to the staff Gandalf carries on his journeys.
Strikingly similar to Shadowfax, Odin possesses a legendary horse named Sleipnir, who has eight legs and can run on the ground and through the air at great speeds. This sounds very similar, in some ways, to Tolkien’s description of Shadowfax in The Two Towers, “Shadowfax tossed his head and cried aloud as if a trumpet had summoned him to battle. Then he sprang forward. Fire flew from his feet; night rushed over him” (Tolkien 228).
Gandalf was given the ring of fire (Narya) by one of the oldest remaining elves from the first clans to wake beneath the stars before the sun and moon ever existed; at the Cuiviènen river named Círdan. Its best attribute was it raises the spirits of those who wear it. Bolstering internal strength and so forth. He knew it would aid Gandalf in his quest from the Valar and Eru Îlluvatar (the one AllFather) themselves to bolster the spirits of the free peoples of middle earth and to sow seeds of hope within the hearts of Men, Elves and Dwarves alike.

The sword Gandalf wielded caused the Balrog’s primordial sword to burst into a rain of molten lava in an almost majestic way. It too belong to high elven king Turgon of the great hidden realm of Gondolin, surrounded by tallest mountains. Named Glamdring; meaning “Foe Hammer”. Gandalf broke the balrog’s unholy weapon. Epic right?
His original staff broke when he let some of his true powers show to grant a miracle from his own life force. This is the same thing for how the elves do “magic” Galadriel herself tells Frodo and Sam that things elves do may seem like magic but they don’t really use such a word since they are one with the world, symbiotic with it if the world perished so would they.
Just so you know; the balrog and Gandalf fought for 10 days straight. Then eldrich terrors(nameless things) assailed them both and they begrudgingly fought them off together and Gandalf resumed his chase of the balrog up the endless stairs of Dúrin’s Tower where they fought up at the top of ZirakZigil

At 13:20, Hobbits live a bit longer than the Big Folk; Tolkien writes that Hobbits live to 100 as often as not. So Bilbo is old, but not that old. When Gandalf first greets him he says, "You haven't aged a bit!" and gives him a hard look. For Bilbo doesn't look any older than he did when he first found the Ring, sixty years ago. That's not right...
Basically all the fantasy RPGs are to some extend inspired by Lord of the Rings. Tolkien is the father of modern fantasy afterall
The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the greatest trilogy ever made 🔥💯
These movies are the epitome of the phrase 'Cinematic Masterpiece'.
This will be the best time of your life watching these movies
Been waiting for this one.
If you break this up into 2-3 parts it better. Especially if you are watching the extended editions.
Gives you a chance for more content.
You got me laughing at your jumping.
Hella good reaction though.
All 20 rings were meant to go to the elves (300-500years of his infiltration & deception down the drain.) but Mairon of the Maiar(primordial angelic beings in simple terms as they are sort of beyond angels) disguised as a high elf named Annatar when he came to the elves pretending to be an emissary from Valinor on behalf of the Valar so it makes sense how alluring the ring is and how strong it’s pull on people is. (A bit too instant in the movies though) Galadriel soon saw right through him and especially when after speaking with him regarding not remembering him when in Valinor long ago where she learned from all the Valar thanks to being dominantly Vanyar/Teleri side over her Noldorin side where she gleaned from that encounter that she did not study under Aulë the Vala with any elf named Annatar ! But later named Sauron by the elves meaning deceiver! After all of this, The three elven rings were made in secret without Saurons touch upon them thanks to Celebrimbor! Remember Gandalf before he became Gandalf was the same species of entity Sauron used to be!! Wow hey?
The Rings in this case, would have lost their powers eventually due to the lack of the One Ring and possibly because they were designed to defeat evil, & evil in the form of Sauron had been defeated twice already in the past.
The Three Elven Rings served their purpose for a long time. Two out of three of them had several different bearers Unlike the other Rings, the main purpose of the Three is to "heal and preserve", as when Galadriel used Nenya to preserve her realm of Lothlórien over long periods. The Elves made the Three Rings to try to halt the passage of time, or as Tolkien had Elrond say, "to preserve all things unstained". I can expand upon this based on any further statements & questions you have for me as a reply to this comment ! ❤
There is problem here with the Rings, the Three were supposed to be never touched by Sauron and that's why they were not corrupting…Sauron had not taken part in their making which made the Three more 'pure' unsullied by his dark power, unlike the Nine and Seven Rings! But Sauron in the show touched the very material they were made of!!! So technically he could have tainted them and corrupted!
Even appendices of Lot tell us the order of making the rings, so they didn't even need the righs to more detailed writings in UT or Silmarillion:
1200
Sauron endeavours to seduce the Eldar. Gil-galad refuses to treat with him; but the smiths of Eregion are won over. The Númenoreans begin to make permanent havens.
c. 1500
The Elven-smiths instructed by
Sauron reach the height of their skill.
They begin the forging of the Rings of Power.
c. 1590
The Three Rings are completed in Eregion.
c. 1600
Sauron forges the One Ring in
Orodruin. He completes the Barad-dûr. Celebrimbor perceives the designs of Sauron.
1693
War of the Elves & Sauron begins.
The Three Rings are hidden."
'Did you not hear me, Gloin?' said Elrond. 'The Three were not made by Sauron, nor did he ever touch them.
But of them it is not permitted to speak. So much only in this hour of doubt I may now say. They are not idle. But they were not made as weapons of war or conquest: that is not their power. Those who made them did not desire strength or domination or hoarded wealth, but understanding, making, and healing, to preserve all things unstained.
These things the Elves of Middle-earth have in some measure gained, though with sorrow. But all that has been wrought by those who wield the Three will turn to their undoing, and their minds and hearts will become revealed to Sauron, if he regains the One."

The 3 Elven Rings are not susceptible to “The One Ring” in any direct way.. They’re only tied by fate to lose their power if Sauron is defeated completely & absolutely. As they were made by the elves and as always they make things for a purpose and pour their literal spirit into things they create. So if Sauron is defeated then the three rings power will fade and basically become almost useless or diminished versions of their original design since by this era magic has bled from the world by a huge degree thanks to Morgoth’s poisoning the world itself with his very essence that he poured into it. Called The Long Defeat By The Elves and The Men Of The West.
Man, RPG Bro is in for the most epic tale ever put on screen. 😂 It’s the root of all fantasy RPGs. No cap. Tolkien was the grandfather of it all.
The movies are masterpieces but they do Isildur some unintentional injustice. In book he NEVER succumbs to the ring, he instead spends his time being a fair ruler who practically gave power away to the people INSTEAD of being power hungry. He comes to realize that he is not powerful enough to truly bend the ring to his will. That it will eventually overcome him. Isildur resolves to give the ring to Elrond but is killed on the way to Rivendel. It's a tragic story of a man that tries to right his wrong but ultimately fails.
In the books isildur literally repented and was about to bring the ring to Rivendell and apologize as he recognized it was beyond him even for a great numenorean connected to the faithful line of the mighty Elendil
I preface the prologue & war, other depictions I LOVE, captured the themes WELL, the vibe of the whole trilogy! The significance of the duel between Elendil & Sauron was Nerffed; (He wasn’t some random old bloke in armour getting smacked around) This man was MIGHTY and gleaming with power which you’ll find out in the great videos you’ll soon react to with joy!
* He and Gil-Galad; last true Elven King battled Sauron and slayed Sauron’s physical body and both died in the process. GilGalad was held high by the face for all free peoples to see as he then incinerated his bodily form to a crisp of ash! Isildur was part of the fight too but not as prominently and he just comes up to the body to cut the ring finger off and…. So one example is how easily Sauron is killed in the intro.
* • He's set up as this super powered badass, but all you have to do is cut off his finger? That's not how it went down in the book, where the greatest man-king and the greatest elven-king had to double-team Sauron to strike down his body, but were killed in the effort (Isildur then cuts the ring from the corpse).
Especially for elves the title of king has many meanings & by the Third Age there isn’t a population large enough to even attempt to such a thing as creating a unified kingdom, which would put a target on their backs, let alone many of them are beyond all of that anyway as it’s seen as doing more harm than anything good.
* They also seen what happened when the elves fell upon the swords of their own hubris and passion no matter if it was for the right reasons some of the time. That it always ended up in some sort of tragedy which sometimes even damaged the earth itself.
They had long known about what’s called the Long Defeat as ever since Morgoth’s marring of the land itself; pouring his remnants into it that caused the “magic” to slowly drain away from the land itself, which is sad because for ages several clans of elves were born there. even the greatest ancestors were “born” in middle earth awakening to the stars !
Many of who are left have accepted the next phase of their life which is to become councillors, healers and loremasters to those with the heart to listen and the desire to learn. But above all the guardians and custodians of several things and the world itself for as long as they can remain!❤ The elves “exist” as long as the world does. And Tolkien made it obvious in many ways that it’s our world as he restored Anglo Saxon culture/Mythologies and folklore, and their languages too alongside Irish, Welsh and Finnish mythologies too. Especially Norwegian(of which I am)
This is what Amazon (the show that shall not be named) didn’t deliver either [[AKA the actual story which inspired everything we love into existence with games and movies and books and so forth. Skyrim, elder scrolls, oblivion, Diablo, and world of Warcraft and D&D. And Game Of Thrones was hugely inspired by Tolkien… yet as the godfather of everything and the heart of what caused many peoples lives to be saved cannot get the justice it deserves for adaptations?
People literally conquered cancer because of the books and the trilogy, the books were read to their children for years. All 25 of them. The man was a hugely respected scholar and professor in the world. Translated ancient artifacts and hieroglyphs and petroglyphs and so forth for the government etc.
(JRR Tolkien even rejected being recruited into the CIA several times & he wrote everyone by letter and referenced the dudes who came to him as “little boys who knew not what they got themselves into” which showed his fearlessness.). The readers of the trilogy that came out are who he writes back to despite always replying to everyone back and forth.
Many people have shared the stories regarding these conversations which were past down throughout the family lines of the people who had a personal relationship with Tolkien which was hundreds of people when he was alive. Thousands. (Some are in video format too or happened to be shared later on in the video or comes up during a video about him and his work.
Especially nowadays when many of us came out of the woodwork to defend professor Tolkiens legacy from amazons money grubbing hands and so forth. Giving many channels a new lease on life where some make Tolkien related content now amongst other things they create content wise.
You strike me as the sort of person who would actually appreciate the extended version at first watching. Not many people are that far along
I had no idea there was one until reading these comments lol glad I picked the right one xD
The version is extended. My subscription is expected.
Fun facts: almost all actors of the Fellowship have the elvish rune for "9" tattooed, except for John Rhys-Davies (Gimli), wo had his body double take it for him. Director Sir Peter Jackson has the elvish "10" inked. He has a cameo in all 3 movies. In this one he is a guy eating a carrot in Bree. The great Sir Christopher Lee (Saruman) was a huge "Lord of the Rings" fan. He owned a first edition, which he is said to have read several times and had even met author J.R.R. Tolkien in person. The scene where Gandalf bumps his head in Bilbo´s house was not scripted, but being the extraordinary actor he is, Sir Ian McKellen made the best of the moment.
Andy Serkis was a fantastic theatre actor and director many years before motion capture.
He's brilliant as Captain Haddock in Tintin.
A really lovely man, he owns a massive motion capture studio near where I live in London. It's incredible inside 🤓🇬🇧
LOTR isn't "like how it is" in RPGs and MMOs, LOTR is why it is like that in those games.
This is gonna be a ton of fun, it’s my favorite movie trilogy. 😄 Glad you’re enjoying it so far!
EXTENDED VERSION for the win! 50 bonus points.
Definitely one of the best movie productions ever made (best by far in my opinion) peter jackson loves his jump scares 😅😅
The incident with the dragon is in the hobbit movies made after these 3 movies but are earlier in bilbo's life.
Love that youre watching the extended editions!!! Keep on with that!
I just picked a random link lol glad I picked this one and enjoyed it all
3:22 you passed the test. I’ll keep watching 😝
Most LOTR reactions just upload 2 to 3 part segments, lengthed at about 40-45 minutes each.
RPGs are massively influenced by Tolkien’s books these films are based upon and his Middle Earth legendarium, a framework created before that.
Published in 1955 - LotR formed the basis of modern fantasy. Highly influential in all fantasy mediums ever since.
No coincidence that in Game of Thrones John Snow´s best friend is Samwell Tarly, a clear reference to Samwise Gamgee.
Aye Charlie I gotta Question. How come you've switched from reacting to yt content to movies? Love the videos Ima keep watching, I just wanted to know if you could do a mix of both?
agree
Great reaction. It is so fun experiencing this with new LOTR viewers. I'm glad you like it. I love RPGs too so I see the correlation.
Yeah this movie is far too much fun xD
@@CampCrystalCharlie The Moria sequences at the end of Fellowship are my favorite in the whole trilogy. Enjoy them!
Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings is the well that all fantasy writers draw from, whether it's books, or D&D, or RPGs and MMORPGs.
Nice and I can for sure see the connection with RPG's in this movie.
Most fantasy RPGs have garnered influence from the works of Tolkien. If you have played Skyrim, you'll recognize certain aspects of the next movie that you'll find familiar. Appreciate that you are watching the extended editions, and also that you are watching in a darkened room. Always helps with immersion. 👌
It feels like an RPG game because this is the first and greatest work of modern fantasy
I loved!!! please don't delay in releasing the other videos... yay!!! I'm not going to tell you anything, but you'll still be very surprised... And "maybe you won't be the same after this journey..."🙃🙂🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
lol getting them out fast as I can xD
Glad you're reacting to this movie series ☺️
Check out the pirates of the Caribbean series , princess bride , goonies , clue the movie , Robin hood men in tights , Ella enchanted , death becomes her , sleepy hollow
I suggest immersion reading for Lord of the Rings. Its audio books are fantastic so together with the printed it’s really good for new readers. (If you say you are not big in the fantasy genre.)
Yes, it is like an RPG. Basically all RPG is based on Lord of the Rings after all. 😂 Orcs, etc… And it’s a journey book.
Loved watching your reaction to this! A masterpiece in filming❤😊 Looking forward to parts 2 & 3
I really appreciate how much fun you're having, you're going to absolutely blow your top with the next two, believe it
just a reminder... the reaction would feel more natural if you were looking at the movie screen on the left instead of something off screen. try it. you might like it. 😊
I love it that you went in blind! Best way to be! You don’t need to know “the lore.” 😂😂😂 ignore those people who push that on you! Just enjoy every second! The movie explains everything as you watch anyway.🤣🤣🤣 There’s no test!!🎉🎉🎉
I love the books too!
Subbed!🫶🏽💙💖
Nice. I'm looking forward to the lore but I hear you xD
You can actually visit hobbiton in New Zealand its one of the biggest tourist attractions in New Zealand
Good, this is the extended edition. You will enjoy them a lot I guarantee 😁
Great reaction 💜
The extended version AND with subtitles... hats off to you, young Sir! 👏🏾✔👍🏾 -x-
Thaaaaaaanks, Aishals =D
Great! You really pay attention.
You may hear more about Bilbo, gollum.And the dragon in the prequel called The Hobbit.Check it out after this series
Omg I can’t for the rest of this and even more excited for the next movie, my personal favourite. If you want battles, you are in for the treat of your life ☺️💃🏻💃🏻
Craftsman appreciation:
Smart using the reflection in the picture behind you as a way to match the edits.
Shhhhhhhh xD
Enjoy the journey! One amazing story in three movies.
I'm excited =D
You watched the extended edition. THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE. 🎉
Enjoy! No spoilers
Solid reaction!
Fun fact they had to hire multiple blacksmiths to keep all the armor functional
Niiiiice
@@CampCrystalCharlieyou’ll love reacting to the same endless journey that is the LOTR BTS. Flowstate reacts will help
you are very observant and a good listener
I can be, at times 😂
Thanks
Savepoint! I've watched videos of Baldur's Gate 3 being played and they separate them just like this so you're fine!
It feels like a game because all rpg fantasy games come from Tolkien all fantasy party style games are derived from this story
That makes this movie 10x better for me. It feels like I'm connected to it xD
FINALLY! ❤❤🎉🎉
Yaaayyyyy!!! Please watch these. I just subscribed. You are gonna love this
=D
AT THE END BRO USED A SAVEPOINT 😭 💀
Better reason than saying I'm gettin to much footage to edit down bruh. :)
My man's legit rested at a bonfire in Bree lol.
Welcome to the adventure
Thanks for having me. Where's the nearest inn?
It is amazing your favorites are RPG games but never watched LOTR before. Even tho there are one or two scenes I wished to be different after my dozens of re-watch, my opinion of LotR being #1 movie of all time never changed.
this is one series that i could never really get into. i tried watching this movie a long time ago but i gave up on it for whatever reason. i did watch the hobbit cartoon that was the prequel of this as a kid though and liked it.
hearing "middle earth" always confused me. i was like "do they live in the center of the earth, or is it like how we say "middle america"? lol
i'm not going to say what, but the ring and the symptoms of it reminds me of another object from another movie series.
and as far as the phrase "spreading butter on bread", you ever only had a little butter, but a lot of bread, and you tried your best to spread it all evenly? or like when you go to mcdonald's, you have a 10 piece nuggets but they only gave you one bbq sauce packet, so you're trying to make a little sauce last for a lot of nuggets.
it's like how they say "you're spreading yourself thin" when you're trying to do too much alone, but in this case he's talking about his life. he feels like there's still a lot for him to do and handle, but he doesn't have long enough to do it because he knows the end for him is near, and he's running on fumes like a car with low gas in it that's on a long road trip. it's time to pull over to the side of the road and give the keys to frodo to continue the road trip.
but the dude that gandalf fought, saruman, that's christopher lee. he's one of my favorite voice actors in kingdom hearts and has the best voice in the entire game. lol
There are three continents: The Lands of the Sun in the East, Valinor in the West and Middle-earth...in the middle :)
lol, I'm watching this while playing FFXIV for that double MMO feeling
NIIIIIIIIICE
I almost didn't click on this. Great reaction. I'm on board for the ride. Casually throwing out a word like philology sealed the deal. Thanks for the reaction.
If you are a reader, I really recommend you read the books and start with The Hobbit. I hope you enjoy the experience.
Yeah a few definitely recommended the books so I might have to dabble. Loving the movie
Man, I'm so glad I found your reaction! It's great to see your joy experiencing these for the first time. You also made me laugh like crazy, at 17:51 I just about lost it 😂 I really needed that today, thank you! Absolutely can't wait for the rest! Also, this movie was short of giving you a heart attack on multiple occasion, making you jump like that lol
glad you enjoyed as much as I'm enjoying the film hahahaha
Keep in mind that the movies are like the best burger you've ever had with home fries and a good shake. The books are like fillet mignon with sauteed mushrooms, a loaded baked potato served with buttery rolls fresh from the oven and a fine wine. The language is savory. Then there's The Legendarium, it's like an endless soup, salad and dessert bar you can visit anytime you like, and explore new things or just nibble on your own favorites.
The things you'll want to read for yourself are The Hobbit, or There and Back Again a fairytale written for children, The Lord of the Rings trilogy a fairytale written for adults and The Silmarillian, history as written by the Elves. Mostly.
Also keep in mind the stories in the movies take place at the end of the Third Age of Middle Earth. But the Legendarium extends back to when Eru Iluvatar the One was alone in his Timeless Halls, before He made EA, the World of Things That Are. It's all in The Silmarillian, which can be a bit of a daunting read because of the names. When you make a Universe and spend decades tweeking it, there's a lot of names.
Here are some RUclips channels that can help you break it down. Tolkien Untangled, TheGirlNextGondor and The Red Book. But it's a very individual choice how deep you wish to go. These are the deep divers, and they read all of Tolkien 's posthumously published collections, so you don't have to. There are so many books and blogs and channels that you never have to leave Middle Earth if you don't want to.
Have fun!🧓🎭📽️💖🏆🏆🏆
great reaction, but xD I didn't understand what you said before "it's filology almost" xD
Thanks and no worries lol I was saying It felt like the movie was going in the direction of Philology at first.
@@CampCrystalCharlie :D It's not far from truth, Tolkien said that first came up with the languages of his world and doing that, somehow build the history of his peoples, so that though defines the language :)
Part 2!!!
coming in a day or 2
Too much fun! But you're making me want to watch it, ummm...slightly impaired. 🤣
Hahahahaha enjoy......The film by the way 😂
Tha boy at tha spot....look just like my dude
Pls react to lionel Messi world champion movie by Magical Messi
After you are done the LOTR trilogy, head over to The Hobbit to learn about “the incident with the dragon.”💕🇨🇦
please please please don't spoil it lol I already plan to watch that too =D
@@CampCrystalCharlie No plan to spoil. I would never do that to a newbie to Tolkien’s legendarium. These stories are to fabulous to spoil on someone. I just wanted to plant a seed to get you to watch them, but it would seem you are way ahead to me. 😉😂 Have fun. They are quite the ride. You got a new subscriber. 💕
Play Shadow of Mordor Mr RPG
I actually played that one. It was cool but Middle Earth on 360 has my heart xD
👍
Just play Baldur's Gate 3 - not an MMO, so you can take it at your own pace, but a lovely fantasy game with compelling characters.
I played it a bit. I'm heavy on the turn-based RPG side =D
@@CampCrystalCharlie Hell yeah. One of my favourite genres. If you're in the mood for some sci-fi, I'd recommend Rogue Trader. Basically space Baldur's Gate
subscribed to Patreon to watch full reaction. Where is it???
all up tonight
Did I miss a trend or something? Why is everyone and their grandma reacting to the Lord of the Rings trilogy rn? lmao
Hahahahaha now that's funny. I promise I just pulled it out the bag and decided to watch it xD
@@CampCrystalCharlieplease consider uploading the full film split into three parts like the larger channels do. RichieNicksGeeking channel did a great video showing and explaining the “extended edition” scenes of this film along with showing people how to truly tango with the LOTR copyright without fail!
Bro wud ya do mrballen reactions again I miss you doing them
I would love to but I would have to make an entire new channel. I might one day I kid you not
@@CampCrystalCharlie please do cuz it used make my whole day when I found you had dropped a new mrballen vid still love ya channel tho bro
Cool binger I wouldn’t trust Chucky he’ll steal ya stuff.
Oh noooo you have to watch the 2 other films that are also 3 to 4 hours long ohh nooo… watch the two other films
After seeing this, believe me, I surely am. This is amazing!!
@@CampCrystalCharlie yayyy
The extended editions are not the official movies. They're not even better movies.
If you like the movie AND RPG, then try LOTRO - try it free to play first. Huge world download. Can run from the shire to Mordor after a year or so of playing. Twitch stream it live if wanted.
Great cinema. Horrible adaptation.
It's missing quite a few bits from the books and the timeline differs across the films and books slightly, but I wouldn't say it's "horrible" 🤔
The 'Hobbit' films where definitely worse as an adaptation of the book 😣
@@Mortigantoj - Perhaps you just don't understand The Lord of the Rings.
@@jachyra9 I actually did my masters thesis on it 😆
@@Mortigantoj - Well, this must be very embarrassing for you, then. Tell me, since you're attempting to throw your weight around here: why would it be wrong for Jackson to have Galadriel say those words during the opening monologue of The Fellowship of the Ring? Considering you allegedly did your masters thesis on it, you should be able to adequately explain why.
