Guys, I watch a lot of LOTR reactions, and I realize most people watching it for the first time have already seen the Harry Potter movies, so I can understand comparing things in LOTR to HP, but remember this: LOTR was published as a book almost a decade before JK Rowling was even born. What you're seeing here is what JK Rowling drew upon to create the HP world, not the other way around.
I hardly think HP and LOTR are remotely comparable. It's not because one is good and the other is bad, but because they're way too different from each other.
@@hebercluff1665 I'm not trying to compare the worlds, just to point out what is "like" what. Gandalf is not "like" Dumbledore. If anything, and I'm not saying any comparison is accurate, Dumbledore is "like" Gandalf. Same with Gollum and Dobby, or Merry and Pippin versus the Weasley twins. Reactors make these comparisons solely because they've seen the HP series first. Rowling may have drawn upon Tolkien's works, but Tolkien certainly did not draw upon Rowling's.
@@hebercluff1665 they have A LOT of similarities, Voldemort dark lord, who was almost destroyed, who later come back to physical form, whose existence is bined to items called horcruxes is totally based on Sauron dark lord who was almost destroyed but survived because of the ring (horcrux) and wants to take on physical form, the same with a lot of other stuff, in HP they had to destroy horcruxes in LOTR the ring, in HP there is Dumbledore who is based on Gandalf, Dementors are totally inspired by Nazghuls etc etc etc it is not only inspired but sometimes at the border of plagarism
Remember guys, Tolkien wrote this in the early 50's. He fought in WWI for England and his son was a British pilot in WWII. A lot of the war vibs were personal info. Alllll the other fantasia stories are throwbacks to this one. Tolkien came first.
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 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. They all have alphabets, syntax and vocabularies and can be learned. 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. Skyrim, Harry Potter, Diablo, D&D, even Warhammer and so forth wouldn’t have. Existed without taking 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 and hours of behind the scenes documentaries from the DVDs of the movies which are also on RUclips and I can send you a playlist to react to from top to bottom.
In the books Arwen doesn't summon the flood, her father Elrond sent the flood once he sensed the Wraiths crossing into his realm. Wraiths can cross water, but they are without any of their powers while they do so, which is why they avoid running water, and why they timed their search for the One Ring for a time when they could cross the River Isen exactly at Midsummer. JRR Tolkien was quite in love with the mythology of the UK and Western Europe and wove it into this story at every opportunity.
you forgot to mention that waves in the shape of horses was gandalfs magic, Elrond sent the flood by opening the dam and Gandalf created horses from the water kinda for fun
Arwen's father (Elrond) has one of the rings of Power. The river was at the Border of Rivendell, her homeland, which was under the protection of Elronds ring. Arwen's prayer was pulling on the power of enronds ring to summon a flood, and Gandalf used his magic to shape the water into horses.
The Gandalf locked in the Tower bit is explained ONLY in the Unfinished Tales Book: In [manuscript-C) The Black Riders arrived at the Gate of Isengard while Gandalf was still a prisoner in the tower. In this account, Saruman, in fear & despair, & perceiving the full horror of service to Mordor, resolved suddenly to yield to Gandalf, & to beg for his pardon & help. Temporizing at the Gate, he admitted that he had Gandalf within, & said that he would go & try to discover what he knew; if that were unavailing, he would deliver Gandalf up to them. Then Saruman hastened to the summit of Orthanc - & found Gandalf gone. Away south against the setting moon he saw a great Eagle flying towards Edoras. See, the thing is he was always master of studying the enemy & even being able to think like they do to always know exactly the best ways to handle ever situation and so on, but the thing is he didn't just become the enemy, he at this time in a sense for once actually grew afraid of him, probably Sauron did what Sauron did with Finrod Felagund(Galadriel’s elder brother who by the way was the most important in the Legendarium & is the main reason the third age even exists) which basically widdled Saruman with various visions of the past and future until it wore him down, but Saruman(Curumo) was the mostly already becoming weary due to what was called The along Defeat, magic bleeding out from the lands of middle earth and subsequently certain things become less and less possible and the elves begin to go west. Even the ones who never wished to leave middle earth and many of which were born here by the thousands.
Bilbo Walking Song: “Roads go ever ever on, Over rock and under tree, By caves where never sun has shone, By streams that never find the sea; Over snow by winter sown, And through the merry flowers of June,Over grass and over stone, And under mountains in the moon. Roads go ever ever on Under cloud and under star, Yet feet that wandering have gone Turn at last to home afar. Eyes that fire and sword have seen And horror in the halls of stone Look at last on meadows green And trees and hills they long have known” The original version of the song is recited by Bilbo in the last chapter of The Hobbit, at the end of his journey back to the Shire. Coming to the top of a rise he sees his home in the distance, and stops and essentially sings what I shared above! There are three versions of this walking song in The Lord of the Rings. The first is sung by Bilbo when he leaves the Shire and is setting off to visit Rivendell: The Road goes ever on and on, Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. The second version is identical except for changing the word "eager" to "weary" in the fifth line. It is spoken aloud, slowly, by Frodo, as he and his companions pause on their way to Crickhollow, looking beyond to lands that some of them have never seen before. The third version is spoken by Bilbo in Rivendell after the hobbits have returned from their journey. Bilbo is now an old, sleepy hobbit, who murmurs the verse and then falls asleep. The Road goes ever on and on Out from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, Let others follow it who can! Let them a journey new begin, But I at last with weary feet Will turn towards the lighted inn, My evening-rest and sleep to meet. 1977: The Hobbit (1977 film): Sections of the poem are sung during the trip through Mirkwood. It appears on the soundtrack titled "Roads". 1980: The Return of the King (1980 film): A song inspired by the poem is sung at the end of the film called "Roads Go Ever, Ever On". 1981: The Lord of the Rings (1981 radio series): Bilbo sings the song as he leaves Bag End. It is sung by John Le Mesurier to a tune by Stephen Oliver. 1997: An Evening in Rivendell: The Tolkien Ensemble adapted an original melody to the song, composed by Caspar Reiff. 2001: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: Parts of the song are sung by Gandalf in his first appearance, and also by Bilbo as he leaves Bag End. 2006: The Lord of the Rings Musical: The poem is the basis of the song "The Road Goes On" sung by Sam, Frodo, Merry, and Pippin in the first act. 2014: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies: Lines of the poem partially make up the lyrics of The Last Goodbye, performed by Billy Boyd(Pippin) for the credits of the film. This is just stuff to know when you see the next films. Maybe seeing this will spark something you read here or in other people’s comments via future reactions to the other 2 films as well as the 3 The Hobbit movies!
Extended scenes at risk of being missed: 1• Frodo and Sam's first meeting with the elves, providing context for Valinor and the elves journey there, as referenced throughout the films and seen at the end of the Return of the King(connects to the passing of the elves in the beginning of their leaving the shire when Frodo and Sam are near the Old Forest by the Shire which leads them to eventually bumping into Merry And Pippin! (An epic scene with Gandalf in Rivendell was also removed as well.) 2. Aragorn singing the Lay of Luthien, providing a parallel between the events of the Beren and Luthien and Aragorn's relationship with Arwen of which every reactor channel I’ve seen makes the connection and it pulls them into a deeper understanding of their relationship every single time. 3. Aragorn kneeling at his mother's grave, giving him some additional backstory for the viewer. 4. Gandalf explaining to Frodo about the corruptive power of the Ring, and how it will strain the Fellowship from the inside, foreshadowing Boromir's downfall. 5. Sam singing a lament for Gandalf, providing more emotional weight to Gandalf's death, referencing the start of the movie and strengthening the connection between him and the Hobbits ( also highlights Tolkien's love of song and poetry in the books). 6. Galadriel giving the gifts to the Fellowship, providing context for their appearance in later films, as well as drawing a parallel between Gimli's gift and the events of the Silmarillion (Fëanor & Galadriel). That’s just the beginning. Including several removed scenes between Aragorn & Galadriel and Aragorn with her husband Celeborn! 7• also the opening explaining Hobbits & their culture to the viewers, so they have a better understanding of these peoples we will be following which also was the direct full chapter called Concerning Hobbits.
Fun fact: Tolkien's universe is Monotheistic, i.e. there's only one Omnipotent God Also, Gandalf and Sauron are maiars who are angelic spirits created by God (Eru Iluvátar)
Firstly: All 16 rings were meant to go to the elves (300-500years world of infiltration & deception down to 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 Ñoldorin 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, and evil, in the form of Sauron, had been defeated. 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 One Ring’s power over people explained here:As for the rings given to these groups:They were all meant to go to the elves but Mairon of the Maiar 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.

The Peter Jackson movies are masterpieces but they do Isildur some injustice. In the books, while he doesn’t ever succumb’, he 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 within 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.
Welcome to The fandom before all fandoms ever existed. The LOTR family. (We aren’t making it up. People will flood your comment section. Everyone who simply reacts to the films or even does any extra videos regarding Tolkien they will find their RUclips and patreon community will grow by the hundreds and thousands in the span of only a few days. It’s always wild fun to see their faces when they voice their thoughts regarding the wave of love they are hit with when they thought it’d be just another movie reaction like all the others. 😂🤣 Just know that “the elvish languages” were added to the dictionary of world languages. They are fully fledged and so very important among other languages of his that were to restore the ancient languages and cultures of Finland, Ireland, Latin, Welsh, Gaelic, Irish, Anglo Saxon especially with another peoples language in the second movie. (Use extended only.)
The power of the One Ring is great but it depends on its wielder on whether its full potential can be tapped into. Sauron poured much of his power, hate, etc. into the ring in order to control the other ring bearers and to control the wills of others in his vicinity depending on the capacity of the user. For a simple creature like a hobbit, it would extend their life and allow them to 'walk in the spirit world'. In the hands of Gandalf or Galadriel it would magnify their own powers and allow them to command armies and force enemies to surrender and serve them. However, the ring wants to return to Sauron so it would 'betray' its wielder when necessary to meet that goal.
Suggesting that Elrond should have pushed Isildur down in the Mont Doom seems legit but it is in fact not possible: with such an evil tought, Elrond would have took the Ring and became the new Sauron, because the Ring is evil and corrupt everyone, and the more powerful you are (Elrond is very powerful) the most dangerous it is. Another thing that most reactors seems not take at first view is that Frodo sould have not put the Ring on at Weathertop, because in this way the Nazgul could see him very well and cleary. And of course was the Ring's will that Frodo was following in that moment
Yeah, if Elrond was evil enough to push his friend and ally into the lava, he would have been tempted to take the ring for himself. He probably would have been strong enough to use it and would have ruled Middle Earth with an iron fist. Life would not have been good.

Jackson always wanted people to see the extended versions in the theatres, but Harvey Weinstein stopped him. In fact, Weinstein wanted just ONE movie in the threatres, not a trilogy. 5 years of court proceedings - and the 'harvey weinstein orc" in return of the king (made at Jackson's specific direction) was the result. You are actually arguing in favour of a version of this movies that was only shown in theatres because of legal reasons - not for artistic reasons.
I'm something of a LOTR nerd (as are many of your subscribers, I'll bet) and I've watch over a hundred reactions here on RUclips. I'm looking forward to your reactions to the rest of the series.
Elrond's hairline? Such a stupid thing to worry about. Although genetics have already rolled dice for you to decide whether or not you'll get to keep your own hairlines, you won't be shown the results of that saving throw for another few years yet. May the odds be ever in your favor. As someone who has a decent hairline and head of hair even now at 52, I'd give it all up just to have even one of my friends back who died along the way. Old age is not a cause for shame. So very many are denied the privilege, a hairline is the least of your concerns. Enjoy your youth for certain, but rather work on building yourself up, not bringing others down. By age 50 everyone gets the face they deserve. What will yours look like? Will you even make it there to find out? You won't know for decades. Best of luck to you both. Be worthy of your wrinkles, folks.
"How did he lose the ring ?" The ring is alive, it has consciousness and therefore a "will of its own" just like a human being, it's not an inanimate object. Also the ring is literally able to change size (it can expand or shrink its metal body) - you can see it in the scene where Isildur gets the ring in the beginning, you see it shrinking in order to fit Isildur's finger size. So in the river he got killed because the ring expanded on purpose ("betrayed him to his death") and fell off his finger.
I really adore these movies, however the one thing that bugs me is how they kind of stripped Frodo of his courageous moments. For example in the book when the Nazgul attacked them at Weathertop he was the one who attacked and made them run scared due to his special blade and calling on the name of Elbereth who made the stars in Middle Earth. And he confronted them once more after entering Imladris, which is given to Arwen in the movie. Also the troll in Moria which will be in part two. But regardless I love the movies and I think this first one is my favourite, the prologue is a masterclass and the scenes with the elves always felt so wonderous.
Hi. You sure you guys aren't going to get a copyright strike? Because it's usually checked using the soundtrack. I hope you've trimmed it down at ten second intervals but that's no guarantee either. Anyways. Great video! :)
cant express how much i love ur channel! i remember i first subbed when you were around 3 or 4k, and now look 🤯🤯 i like how ur growing ur content as well, thanks for your hard work!

No character foreshadowing and character building throughout the first two and three films altogether have all the questions UNANSWERED. Any that find out there is a longer version they jump at the chance and react to those too.
@@Makkaru112 Jackson prefers the theatricals, as they are the 'definitive' movies. The movies he visioned how they should be. The extended editions would be good movies too, if they were not so petty and trivial. Gimli puffing ghosts away, Saruman telling Grima he smells of horse. It's annoying little quips like that which ruin the trilogy.

Guys, I watch a lot of LOTR reactions, and I realize most people watching it for the first time have already seen the Harry Potter movies, so I can understand comparing things in LOTR to HP, but remember this: LOTR was published as a book almost a decade before JK Rowling was even born. What you're seeing here is what JK Rowling drew upon to create the HP world, not the other way around.
I hardly think HP and LOTR are remotely comparable. It's not because one is good and the other is bad, but because they're way too different from each other.
@@hebercluff1665 Still, most of what Rowling wrote is inspired by things Tolkien made, pretty much.
@@hebercluff1665 I'm not trying to compare the worlds, just to point out what is "like" what. Gandalf is not "like" Dumbledore. If anything, and I'm not saying any comparison is accurate, Dumbledore is "like" Gandalf. Same with Gollum and Dobby, or Merry and Pippin versus the Weasley twins. Reactors make these comparisons solely because they've seen the HP series first. Rowling may have drawn upon Tolkien's works, but Tolkien certainly did not draw upon Rowling's.
@@BobBlumenfeld thanks all to the H.P.Lovecraft
@@hebercluff1665 they have A LOT of similarities, Voldemort dark lord, who was almost destroyed, who later come back to physical form, whose existence is bined to items called horcruxes is totally based on Sauron dark lord who was almost destroyed but survived because of the ring (horcrux) and wants to take on physical form, the same with a lot of other stuff, in HP they had to destroy horcruxes in LOTR the ring, in HP there is Dumbledore who is based on Gandalf, Dementors are totally inspired by Nazghuls etc etc etc it is not only inspired but sometimes at the border of plagarism

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 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.
They all have alphabets, syntax and vocabularies and can be learned. 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. Skyrim, Harry Potter, Diablo, D&D, even Warhammer and so forth wouldn’t have. Existed without taking 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 and hours of behind the scenes documentaries from the DVDs of the movies which are also on RUclips and I can send you a playlist to react to from top to bottom.
In the books Arwen doesn't summon the flood, her father Elrond sent the flood once he sensed the Wraiths crossing into his realm. Wraiths can cross water, but they are without any of their powers while they do so, which is why they avoid running water, and why they timed their search for the One Ring for a time when they could cross the River Isen exactly at Midsummer. JRR Tolkien was quite in love with the mythology of the UK and Western Europe and wove it into this story at every opportunity.
I think he included some UK folklore resembling "Kelpies" as the horse heads in the waves.
And the horses were real. The wraiths were immortal, the horses were not and were killed by the flood.
you forgot to mention that waves in the shape of horses was gandalfs magic, Elrond sent the flood by opening the dam and Gandalf created horses from the water kinda for fun
Arwen's father (Elrond) has one of the rings of Power. The river was at the Border of Rivendell, her homeland, which was under the protection of Elronds ring. Arwen's prayer was pulling on the power of enronds ring to summon a flood, and Gandalf used his magic to shape the water into horses.
True as to the movie, but remember, in the book, it was Elrond himself who caused the flood, with Gandalf's help for the horses.
@@BobBlumenfeld yea, I know.
The Gandalf locked in the Tower bit is explained ONLY in the Unfinished Tales Book: In [manuscript-C) The Black Riders arrived at the Gate of Isengard while Gandalf was still a prisoner in the tower. In this account, Saruman, in fear & despair, & perceiving the full horror of service to Mordor, resolved suddenly to yield to Gandalf, & to beg for his pardon & help. Temporizing at the Gate, he admitted that he had Gandalf within, & said that he would go & try to discover what he knew; if that were unavailing, he would deliver Gandalf up to them. Then Saruman hastened to the summit of Orthanc - & found Gandalf gone. Away south against the setting moon he saw a great Eagle flying towards Edoras.
See, the thing is he was always master of studying the enemy & even being able to think like they do to always know exactly the best ways to handle ever situation and so on, but the thing is he didn't just become the enemy, he at this time in a sense for once actually grew afraid of him, probably Sauron did what Sauron did with Finrod Felagund(Galadriel’s elder brother who by the way was the most important in the Legendarium & is the main reason the third age even exists) which basically widdled Saruman with various visions of the past and future until it wore him down, but Saruman(Curumo) was the mostly already becoming weary due to what was called The along Defeat, magic bleeding out from the lands of middle earth and subsequently certain things become less and less possible and the elves begin to go west. Even the ones who never wished to leave middle earth and many of which were born here by the thousands.
Bilbo Walking Song: “Roads go ever ever on, Over rock and under tree, By caves where never sun has shone, By streams that never find the sea; Over snow by winter sown,
And through the merry flowers of June,Over grass and over stone,
And under mountains in the moon.
Roads go ever ever on
Under cloud and under star,
Yet feet that wandering have gone
Turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the halls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they long have known”
The original version of the song is recited by Bilbo in the last chapter of The Hobbit, at the end of his journey back to the Shire. Coming to the top of a rise he sees his home in the distance, and stops and essentially sings what I shared above!
There are three versions of this walking song in The Lord of the Rings.
The first is sung by Bilbo when he leaves the Shire and is setting off to visit Rivendell:
The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
The second version is identical except for changing the word "eager" to "weary" in the fifth line. It is spoken aloud, slowly, by Frodo, as he and his companions pause on their way to Crickhollow, looking beyond to lands that some of them have never seen before.
The third version is spoken by Bilbo in Rivendell after the hobbits have returned from their journey. Bilbo is now an old, sleepy hobbit, who murmurs the verse and then falls asleep.
The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.
1977: The Hobbit (1977 film): Sections of the poem are sung during the trip through Mirkwood. It appears on the soundtrack titled "Roads".
1980: The Return of the King (1980 film):
A song inspired by the poem is sung at the end of the film called "Roads Go Ever, Ever On".
1981: The Lord of the Rings (1981 radio series):
Bilbo sings the song as he leaves Bag End. It is sung by John Le Mesurier to a tune by Stephen Oliver.
1997: An Evening in Rivendell:
The Tolkien Ensemble adapted an original melody to the song, composed by Caspar Reiff.
2001: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring:
Parts of the song are sung by Gandalf in his first appearance, and also by Bilbo as he leaves Bag End.
2006: The Lord of the Rings Musical:
The poem is the basis of the song "The Road Goes On" sung by Sam, Frodo, Merry, and Pippin in the first act.
2014: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies:
Lines of the poem partially make up the lyrics of The Last Goodbye, performed by Billy Boyd(Pippin) for the credits of the film.
This is just stuff to know when you see the next films. Maybe seeing this will spark something you read here or in other people’s comments via future reactions to the other 2 films as well as the 3 The Hobbit movies!
Surely greatest movie ever still ruling this chaotic era.
Extended scenes at risk of being missed: 1• Frodo and Sam's first meeting with the elves, providing context for Valinor and the elves journey there, as referenced throughout the films and seen at the end of the Return of the King(connects to the passing of the elves in the beginning of their leaving the shire when Frodo and Sam are near the Old Forest by the Shire which leads them to eventually bumping into Merry And Pippin!
(An epic scene with Gandalf in Rivendell was also removed as well.)
2. Aragorn singing the Lay of Luthien, providing a parallel between the events of the Beren and Luthien and Aragorn's relationship with Arwen of which every reactor channel I’ve seen makes the connection and it pulls them into a deeper understanding of their relationship every single time.
3. Aragorn kneeling at his mother's grave, giving him some additional backstory for the viewer.
4. Gandalf explaining to Frodo about the corruptive power of the Ring, and how it will strain the Fellowship from the inside, foreshadowing Boromir's downfall.
5. Sam singing a lament for Gandalf, providing more emotional weight to Gandalf's death, referencing the start of the movie and strengthening the connection between him and the Hobbits ( also highlights Tolkien's love of song and poetry in the books).
6. Galadriel giving the gifts to the Fellowship, providing context for their appearance in later films, as well as drawing a parallel between Gimli's gift and the events of the Silmarillion (Fëanor & Galadriel).
That’s just the beginning. Including several removed scenes between Aragorn & Galadriel and Aragorn with her husband Celeborn!
7• also the opening explaining Hobbits & their culture to the viewers, so they have a better understanding of these peoples we will be following which also was the direct full chapter called Concerning Hobbits.
Fun fact: Tolkien's universe is Monotheistic, i.e. there's only one Omnipotent God
Also, Gandalf and Sauron are maiars who are angelic spirits created by God (Eru Iluvátar)
Firstly: All 16 rings were meant to go to the elves (300-500years world of infiltration & deception down to 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 Ñoldorin 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, and evil, in the form of Sauron, had been defeated. 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 One Ring’s power over people explained here:As for the rings given to these groups:They were all meant to go to the elves but Mairon of the Maiar 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 Ñoldorin side where she gleaned from that encounter that she did not study under Aulë the Vala with any elf named Annatar !

The Peter Jackson movies are masterpieces but they do Isildur some injustice. In the books, while he doesn’t ever succumb’, he 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 within 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.
It's truly mindblowing how a movie this old can still visually shit on modern films 💯
I know, it’s like one of the first things you notice
Welcome to The fandom before all fandoms ever existed. The LOTR family. (We aren’t making it up. People will flood your comment section. Everyone who simply reacts to the films or even does any extra videos regarding Tolkien they will find their RUclips and patreon community will grow by the hundreds and thousands in the span of only a few days. It’s always wild fun to see their faces when they voice their thoughts regarding the wave of love they are hit with when they thought it’d be just another movie reaction like all the others. 😂🤣
Just know that “the elvish languages” were added to the dictionary of world languages. They are fully fledged and so very important among other languages of his that were to restore the ancient languages and cultures of Finland, Ireland, Latin, Welsh, Gaelic, Irish, Anglo Saxon especially with another peoples language in the second movie. (Use extended only.)
The power of the One Ring is great but it depends on its wielder on whether its full potential can be tapped into. Sauron poured much of his power, hate, etc. into the ring in order to control the other ring bearers and to control the wills of others in his vicinity depending on the capacity of the user. For a simple creature like a hobbit, it would extend their life and allow them to 'walk in the spirit world'. In the hands of Gandalf or Galadriel it would magnify their own powers and allow them to command armies and force enemies to surrender and serve them. However, the ring wants to return to Sauron so it would 'betray' its wielder when necessary to meet that goal.
Suggesting that Elrond should have pushed Isildur down in the Mont Doom seems legit but it is in fact not possible: with such an evil tought, Elrond would have took the Ring and became the new Sauron, because the Ring is evil and corrupt everyone, and the more powerful you are (Elrond is very powerful) the most dangerous it is.
Another thing that most reactors seems not take at first view is that Frodo sould have not put the Ring on at Weathertop, because in this way the Nazgul could see him very well and cleary. And of course was the Ring's will that Frodo was following in that moment
So the ring (sauron) would be more powerful than everyone's will? and some are just better at withstanding it for longer? makes sense
Yeah, if Elrond was evil enough to push his friend and ally into the lava, he would have been tempted to take the ring for himself. He probably would have been strong enough to use it and would have ruled Middle Earth with an iron fist. Life would not have been good.

You need to watch the extended versions purely for the Boromir parts.
Jackson always wanted people to see the extended versions in the theatres, but Harvey Weinstein stopped him. In fact, Weinstein wanted just ONE movie in the threatres, not a trilogy. 5 years of court proceedings - and the 'harvey weinstein orc" in return of the king (made at Jackson's specific direction) was the result.
You are actually arguing in favour of a version of this movies that was only shown in theatres because of legal reasons - not for artistic reasons.
You guys are great! So is Hugo Weaving playing Elrond 👌
I'm something of a LOTR nerd (as are many of your subscribers, I'll bet) and I've watch over a hundred reactions here on RUclips. I'm looking forward to your reactions to the rest of the series.
I don’t think the throw-your-pal-into-the-volcano option would work as an end to Evil. 😬
Yup. Watch for my next comment going deeper I l Isildur and how he was done dirty
Elrond's hairline? Such a stupid thing to worry about. Although genetics have already rolled dice for you to decide whether or not you'll get to keep your own hairlines, you won't be shown the results of that saving throw for another few years yet. May the odds be ever in your favor.
As someone who has a decent hairline and head of hair even now at 52, I'd give it all up just to have even one of my friends back who died along the way. Old age is not a cause for shame. So very many are denied the privilege, a hairline is the least of your concerns. Enjoy your youth for certain, but rather work on building yourself up, not bringing others down. By age 50 everyone gets the face they deserve. What will yours look like? Will you even make it there to find out? You won't know for decades. Best of luck to you both. Be worthy of your wrinkles, folks.
We know it’s silly but thats just the dynamic we can have sometimes😭
"How did he lose the ring ?" The ring is alive, it has consciousness and therefore a "will of its own" just like a human being, it's not an inanimate object. Also the ring is literally able to change size (it can expand or shrink its metal body) - you can see it in the scene where Isildur gets the ring in the beginning, you see it shrinking in order to fit Isildur's finger size.
So in the river he got killed because the ring expanded on purpose ("betrayed him to his death") and fell off his finger.
I really adore these movies, however the one thing that bugs me is how they kind of stripped Frodo of his courageous moments.
For example in the book when the Nazgul attacked them at Weathertop he was the one who attacked and made them run scared due to his special blade and calling on the name of Elbereth who made the stars in Middle Earth. And he confronted them once more after entering Imladris, which is given to Arwen in the movie. Also the troll in Moria which will be in part two.
But regardless I love the movies and I think this first one is my favourite, the prologue is a masterclass and the scenes with the elves always felt so wonderous.
I had no idea. I definitely had it in my head that he wasn't the strongest but that would have been a great addition to add
Hi. You sure you guys aren't going to get a copyright strike? Because it's usually checked using the soundtrack. I hope you've trimmed it down at ten second intervals but that's no guarantee either. Anyways. Great video! :)
Cool. Enjoying the journey!
Fun to watch you youngsters react to this! :D
cant express how much i love ur channel! i remember i first subbed when you were around 3 or 4k, and now look 🤯🤯
i like how ur growing ur content as well, thanks for your hard work!

Honest opinion. I think the theatrical versions are better than the extended editions, and the EEs are inferior verisons of the films in many ways.
Jackson always wanted people to see the extended versions in the theatres, but Harvey Weinstein stopped him. In fact, Weinstein wanted just ONE movie in the threatres, not a trilogy. 5 years of court proceedings - and the 'harvey weinstein orc" in return of the king (made at Jackson's specific direction) was the result.
You are actually arguing in favour of a version of this movies that was only shown in theatres because of legal reasons - not for artistic reasons.
No Boromir backstory? No character foreshadowing and character building throughout the first two and three films altogether have all the questions UNANSWERED. Any that find out there is a longer version they jump at the chance and react to those too.
@@Makkaru112 Jackson prefers the theatricals, as they are the 'definitive' movies. The movies he visioned how they should be.
The extended editions would be good movies too, if they were not so petty and trivial. Gimli puffing ghosts away, Saruman telling Grima he smells of horse. It's annoying little quips like that which ruin the trilogy.
Hi guys react to Dave chappelle on why he became Muslim.
