LOTR bloopers: This made Viggo Mortensen SCARED of the Uruk-hais
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 апр 2024
- In Fellowship of the Ring, Viggo Mortensen, who played Aragorn, found the portrayal of Uruk-hais so realistic that it unnerved him. Richard Taylor's impassioned speech to the stuntmen playing the Uruk-hais about merciless killing added to the intensity, making Mortensen and others hilariously uneasy during filming.
*Richard Taylor* You're killing machines! Move forward with the intention to kill!!
*Viggo* (chuckles) I'm in danger!
I’d have been terrified! 😂
“I’m in danger!” in Ralph’s voice from the Simpsons 😂
@@shogunshogun You understood that reference
C.A " I UNDERSTOOD that refferance "

"I am not acting a fight in these scenes, I am actually fighting for my life"
Viggo, probably
Lmao
Now you have Mary Sues who pick up a sword for the first time and beat every orc in existence ever with some ballet
Viggo gave as good as he got because of that. After the Lurtz fight both of them were bruised pretty bad
No wonder Lurtz threw a real knife at him after that speech
Lmao they really went full ziel on Viggo
Still the most insane thing about the bts of the films to me is that fact.
@@noahmay7708 I think the coolest one is that Christopher Lee stepped in before filming his death scene, as a veteran, and said "You want me to scream when I get stabbed? Do you know what it sounds like when a man gets stabbed in the back? Because I do. Here's what I'm going to do..."
Proceeds to talk about some verry clandestine bits of ww2.
It was still prop knife with everything blunted not sharp one. Still would have hurt definetly if he would have hit Viggo especially if it would have went straight to his face. The actor actually did it by mistake it was the knife he was meant to throw, but because he couldnt see very well because of the prosthetics he accidently threw it at Viggo when he was meant to throw it way past him, and they likely would have just used camera angles, and such to make it look like its aimed straight at him
After hours in Makeup I'll bet every Uruk actor was genuinely ready to kill.
After hours of make-up, they thought they were fighting for Sauron in middle earth.
😂😂😂 I would too.
They became orcs 😂😂
I put on my motorcycle boots and feel like a badass lol, imagine how these guys felt.
Then they were instantly slain after two seconds of fighting😂
That explains why Gimli swung his axe as hard as he could.
Nah, he was the reason they needed this speech, he was on set swinging hard from the start. He was just built like that and told THEM "come at me for real". These actors really made the films truly something special both on and off screen. What I would give to have just been there for a single day of shooting. We get to watch the magic. They got to MAKE IT. I'll always envy the lucky few who were there 💚
Your pfp is based as hell
@@Pk-glitch whats "pfp" and "based" mean?
All i understood was "Your blank is blank"
Meanwhile, in the background, John Rhys-Davies is just sending guys to the hospital
John is in the background going, YYYEEEEEEESSSSS!!!!
Lmao, I love it, they were amped up, scaring Viggo, whereas John just wanted to smack people with his axe.
*Muffled in the background*
"Twenty one! Twenty two! Twenty three!!"
@@Mrkabrat “That one counts as mine!”
Fitting for Gimli’s actor.
Richard: Move like you're going to kill!
Viggo: Richard please.
Lol
Yeah, have to agree with viggo here. If i was dressed like an uruk in full combat gear with a sword i too would be full of blood lust WITHOUT the speech, speech is just gasoline on the fire.
:)))))))
from what I've heard, the extras that played the Uruks got into character very easily. In Two Towers, that scene of them all lined up, banging their weapons and chests, just shouting out animal noises of violence and death before the initial assault, was unscripted activity from the extras. They just started doing it, and the actors seeing it were genuinely unnerved by the performance, so the "shaken defenders" shots of them reacting to it were somewhat genuine xD
@@happyninja42and thats one of the reasons why the film is just absolutely amazing
Viggo: Are you trying to kill me?
Uruk Hai extras: YES!!!
"WE WILL TASTE MAN FLESH"
😂
@@Kondekka THROWS A KNIFE
No matter how realistic CGI gets. Nothing will ever look better than real actors wearing real costumes.
Yes
Love that the stunt coordinator was dismayed 😁😁
Probably wondering how many ambulances would need to do an evac that day.
No wonder these movies were gold then & gold now. I watch them at least once a year.
I read the books at least once a year too.
@@joyfulyes ok
@@joyfulyes *B A S E D*
Also don’t forget the behind the scenes documentaries.
Slacker, need to pump those numbers up!
Just watched the whole trilogy for the first time last week, good stuff.
"Move forward with the intention you are going to kill." This is what so many fight scenes these days lack, intent (or at least the appearance of). It's painfully obvious that a stunt man isn't trying to hit the actor while also allowing themselves to be hit. It makes both the hero and the villains look silly and incompetent, and the villains never come across as a real threat taking away any sense of tension.
That's true! In most movies and shows, the henchmen are no more than empty suits for the hero to plow through and look tough. In these....it's something else entirely!
"These days"
First thing that came to mind reading this was the Disney Star Wars scene where Rey and Kylo are "fighting" the Praetorian guard.
@@spinx2273 that scene was an embarrasment..... the guards were clearly aiming above the duo, and in one instance when a guard had a clear free shot at rey´s back they either don´t attack at all or one of their weapons magically disappears
I think that's more on the writing than the stunt coordinators
Must have been so amazing making that trilogy
I would have loved to be there!
I wish I could hear that speech.
´Toes shall be broken, Ribs shall be splintered´
You do not know pain you do not know fear! You will taste man flesh!

@@curseofsasuke You did not seriously think that a hobbit could contend with the will of Sauron?
And something to remember is a decent number of the Uruks, and goblins as well, were NZ army. I know during Helms Deep they had Haka going between the two armies, amongst other things.
That's awesome 😮
Just imagine you got that group of guys who are supposed to attack you all excited, chanting "Death to man!"
Gazmuda gazmuda gazmuda!
I larp and I can 100% attest to how bad ass and amped up you feel when you put on a full suit of menacing looking, steel armour. Oh ya, immediate shaking rage and bloodlust! It's awesome!
no matter the actual reality,
you can FEEl it...
And then he deflects a knife thrown at him like a boss.
The scene at the end of Part 1, where Aragorn cuts off an Uruk sergeant's arm and stabs him with his sword - and the Uruk just proceeds to pull himself onto the sword with a grimace saying "this is nothing to me, bitch, fuck you", is in my top 3 favorite movie villain scenes of all time.
All these years I always thought there is something special about the orcs/Uruks in the classic lotr films, about how fucking mean they look, unlike any other "villain army" in any other movie.
I'm happy to learn I wasn't wrong and especially why it was that way
And then he cuts the head off. :)
Real commitment back then. Better times.
Vigo may not have seen a Hakka yet at that point. Those guys are FIERCE.
Thanks. Thanks for that. Now I have this insane picture in my head of all the Uruk-Hai breaking into a Haka just before storming Helms Deep.
And it is ridiculously AWESOME!!
Oh he knew, he even started head butting them to say hello the stunt team said they wanted to fight viggo cause he brought it just as much as they did
@@landkmarjoram6163Actually, the audio for the huge army of Uruk Hai was recorded at a sports arena with thousands of people, shouting Orcish phrases that were shown on the jumbotron and chanting and yelling. Peter Jackson had the whole crowd going to get the most crazy audio he could find.
A dumb dance isn’t threatening. Cause it’s a dance.
@Novarcharesk Pretty sure it's more a war dance (no one bash me I'm not mad familiar with it). And I mean, you watch a team of rugby players do that shit and you're intimidated. You can't bullshit it's impressive.
You do not know pain, you do not know fear. You will taste man-flesh!
Cannot imagine this movie without Viggo
Yeah! Just imagine if they had kept the otber Aragorn! 😱
director: you are killing mashienes
urukai: WAAAAAAH !!!
a few days later
news reporter: the urukai army is still taking over newseeland at this rate they will take over the world in less than 3 month.
Sealand is part of ....Denmark? Finland?
New ZEALAND is across the ditch from Australia.
Merely a small clarification from a patriotic Aussie ;)
I liked the rest of your comment, anyhow :)
@@AntarcticMagpie now I can’t change my comment just to keep yours valid
@@AntarcticMagpie btw I am from german and there it’s called neuseeland wich means new lake/see land lituraly those three words together the see is the die see in germany der see is the lake so it’s not 100% clear
Thanks for the clarification: I was just talking about re-learning German with my housemate, and I appreciate the time you've taken to share a little of your native tongue!
If you change the original comment, just comment something like "thanks, edited now" or similar :)
It reminded me of that picture of an uruk-hai holding a crying kid, that one that always appear around father's day...
When Viggo says “anymore encouragement” he sounds so much like Robin Williams
Lol!! Viggo stood down the barrel of a bunch of Maori stuntmen who all thought they were actual Uruk-hai during the shoot!!!
Yeah, I'd probably just throw myself down the hill too if it came to that! Viggo is awesome and it was clearly a blessing and a blast to be a part of one of, if not THE greatest film shoot in history.
This explains the actual feeling of fear and anticipating threat we all got at the theatre when Uruks first appeared on screen. Their emotions were palpable on screen...
Green screen can't possibly recreate the same feeling.
I only wish the studios would use it less and base their work on actual props and actors again.
Lord of the Rings is by far one of the best fantasy IP’s the world has ever seen. If not *THE* best.
I will absolutely make my future children watch all the movies when I become a parent. It’s a great time to relax and enjoy good movies for the whole family!
Dude it’s a STORY, not an ‘IP’
They were immediate rental priority for my family as they were coming out. I got super hyped seeing trailers, so my folks rented fellowship as soon as it came to the rental store we used, and then we all wound up loving it. After that, it was just understood that we were doing the same with two towers and return of the king when they got released. Once they were all out my folks got me the who trilogy on dvd. We watched them alot, especially my dad and I, then later my brother, who's a huge Tolkien head to this day.
Blood for the Blood God, Skulls for the Skull Thrown!!! Waaaaarrr!!!⚔️💀
🔥💀🔥
Did you know Vigo broke his foot throwing that skull?
They actually gave all the actors real blades and just had them duke it out on camera😂
It's also why the LOTR still holds up to this day, and The Hobbit falls flat.
I love the Hobbit trilogy
@@TawadebI do too. It's more time in Middle Earth, which is better than none. I don't understand the hate for these movies.
@@Lorax15because it's closer to Amazon's bastardization of Middle Earth than Tolkien's Middle Earth. The Lord of the Rings was simply made better and with more respect for the tone and content of the source material, and more importantly the audience's time. The shortest book of Tolkien's four well-known pieces somehow turned into three bloated movies with lifeless action and visuals.
I've watched the 3 appendecies many times . They were well worth it.
PJ always quoted someone I forget who “pain is temporary. Film is forever”
That was John Millius, director of Conan the Barbarian (1982). Arnold was injured first day of shooting, stitches and all, safety on set flimsy at best. He was about to speak to his agent and cancel the whole thing. Millius told him, "pain is temporary, this film will live forever".
The Orcs and Uruks look a 100 times better and scarier than the Goblins in the Hobbit. It's not even close. That shit is visceral.
"Peter! The mob is thoroughly riled, ready on set!"
Man, I really want to try and like the Hobbit movie trilogy, BUT THE CONSTANT USE OF CGI RUINS IT FOR ME. The Lord of the Ring trilogy will ALWAYS be the best
They had to use cgi.
The prosthetics and matte paintings they used in lotr just didn't look convincing with the new tech they were using to film the movie.
@@sudanemamimikiki1527 The usual CGI is not that bad, even though the masks still look better, but please look at the sequence where they go down the river in the barrels. There is at least one scene where the orks look like Playstation 2 characters.
I highly suggest finding a fan edit of the Hobbit movies to download and watch. There are tons out there. I found one that cuts all three into a single 4 hour version by removing all the non-book scenes. It also applies or removes a filter to make them appear visually closer to the trilogy, which helps with some of the more CGI heavy scenes, imo.
@@jasperzanovich2504 that has nothing to do with why they went with cgi.
And the mattes and a lot of the old techniques they used didn't look good with the tech they were filming with.
That's the whole reason they relied so heavily in cgi.
I watched the first movie and suffered through the third. While cgi is definitely too obvious, the bloated plot and dwarves looking like retired clowns on an alcohol binge made it unwatchable for me. If you don't like, enjoy what you like)
I am now feeling sorry for the one Urukai that Gimli swung his axe into their groin. Lets say he actually hit the jewels during shooting.
Let's hope he was padded undernearth the costume to protect the family jewels from actually getting damaged.
I love how the shooting of these movies turned into actual War of the Ring
Viggo is so handsome!!!! ❤❤❤
I love viggo
And it made that scene so great. It could have been an average fight scene, but it wasn't. It was epic!
Looking good Viggo!!
Viggo is such a fucking lowkey boss I love it
the uruk hai were all NZ army
Could have been worse - they could have used rugby players.
Only on mount doom. Not this scene.
One almost killed Viggo Mortensen for real, shooting a real arrow straight at him. When you see Viggo deflect that arrow with his sword, know that it was a real threat to his life.
It was a knife, not an arrow. If it were an arrow, he probably would be dead.
Whatever they did, it worked, because that is and it will remain the best trilogy to have ever been put to film!
Greatest Trilogy in the World 💎
Thats just great directing
It makes sense, Viggo's face when fighting really looks like he's fighting for his life.
Richard : Alright cut, thats a wrap
Viggo : FOR FRODO!!!
I loved both Lotr and the hobbit
Same!!!
How humble he is! Like we don’t know that he really a master class swordsman who could handle himself!
The plural of Uruk-hai is Uruk-hai.
Lurtz was so hyped he almost killed Vigo by that throwed dagger D:
Hey Elliot!! Just stumbled on this vid all on its own, happy to see you covering more stuff you’re passionate about!
❤️
I think it’s very true that the killing intent in the eyes of actors and fighting actual actors just has so much more impact than fighting animated cgi hordes
"YOU WILL TASTE MANFLESH!!!"
"Did he just say they will taste manflesh?"
😂😂😂 Viggo pushing the stunt guy forward.
“Here! He’s paid to be eaten!!”
Love this channel
Māori warriors are terrifying lol
Guess what? So are warriors from everywhere else.
When you boy says hes gunna deescalate things but ends up totally gassin you up to try and scare them but they just get more mad.
So true … just the fact that after all these years people are still talking so much about the movies means that they are truly timeless master pieces …
I love these films, good strong leading actors, no political agendas, no virtue signalling, no Diversity At All Costs, no inclusive nonsense…..god I miss theses days
the biggest difference is the hobbit movies werent that good
Doesn’t say much, that is true for literally every movie in existence other than lotr.
the hobbit movies weren’t bad, but it was a film adaptation of a short children’s novel. No matter how they did that it would never compare to lotr.
@@JFlatby Except that they took a book shorter than any of the LOTR books and stretched it out across 3 really long movies. The story has great potential for good adaptation, they just did it wrong.
they're still entertaining
@@TheOnlyJohnAbraham I agree that making 3 movies out of that short book was a bad idea (and probably purely motivated by making more money).
However, even if that was corrected I don't see a world where the improved Hobbit movie would be as good as LotR. The story is still more of a children's book. (I do like it though! I just don't think it could ever compare to lotr, which was the original comment. "the difference is that the hobbit movies werent that good")
@@blackmetalerik962 So is watching cheese rot
"F**K VIGGO UP, YA'LL!
Did I say Viggo? I mean Aragorn.
F**K ARAGORN UP, YA'LL!"
Viggo: 😐
This clip explains exactly why the hobbit sucked
Director: "You will know no fear, you will feel no pain; you will taste man flesh!"
The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the epitome of movie magic - the sets, the props, the costumes, the makeup, the music, the actors...it's a masterclass in what an epic story SHOULD feel like to the audience.
I miss the days when mild pain or injury was something to endure so as not to look weak and to maintain your sense of pride instead of just being seen as an opportunity to sue, as it is now. Not all masculinity is toxic. This legendary film was made on busted teeth, broken ribs, eviscerated feet, and dislocated knees. The actors who brought to life the faces of “The Lord of the Rings” are some of the most respectable people on this planet
Another difference was the LOTR trilogy was good.
it's crazy how cinema used to be taken seriously, you'd hear directors talk how cinema is always serious methodical work. now seriousness is such a taboo, god forbid anyone does their job for any other reason than being childishly passionate about it
"Richard Taylor: today we won't serve Lunch because Viggo made the cook quit, but we'll do the scene nonetheless!".
Viggo just wants to live ❤
When will Viggo come to his senses andd realize he's madly in love with me? Poor Viggo.
Saruman: You will taste men flesh!
Uruk Hai: No need for that, Richard already briefed us.
This is also one of the best movies ever made. Because the people involved gave it their all.
He went through a lot, ol' Viggo
its an interesting thing about humans men, like the stanley milgram experiment in the 60's, you give a person a uniform, a costume, a mask and a purpose for that, they truely become that thing and forget who they were before.
its completely transformative, those people really became Uruk-Hai for a few moments getting riled up lmao.
No wonder vitto was such a badass in those movies.
Nearly died and still has a laugh about it.
Except he had a real steel sword.
Uruk Actor: Ready to break another toe?!
Vigo deflected that knife out of necessity
Uruk Hais roar after encouragement.
Aragorn: Pete... Pete...
Love your style of mixing BTS footage with your own thoughts!
I want someone to replace Saruman's "A new power is rising" speech in Two towers with the stunt-coordinator's. Lmao
THE TIME OF THE ORC HAS COME
If you’re making professional stuntmen shake with anticipation? My man. They are professionals for a reason. You will NOT be hit! But the re/action(s) will be FANTASTIC!
Beat the snot out of me 😂 love viggo
Can’t think of many things more terrifying than a bunch of New Zealanders in full Uruk gear getting hyped up for a fight
Them using real environments instead of Green screen most of the time really sold the movie, compared to the new modern cfi films
My king 🐐
Actual actors is what made made Aliens better than the rest.
TO WAARRRRR!!!
And then John Rhys Davies is a level above them
When they have to cut the story short, cuz the plot just changed on accident
The difference is LotR was done out of love and greed, Hobbit was done out of just greed.
And the tRoP was done out of sheer fkn hate for the original.
Viggo ❤
