We had some issues getting stuff out this week!
We will be releasing part 2 asap! But we didn't want to not put this out bc it was a lot of fun!
Thanks for watching!
In the early 1980s. There was an animated movie called Flight of the Dragons. It explained that Dragons Covet Gold because it is a soft metal and therefore is the softest material available for bedding that will not catch on fire as they sleep.
Hope you get to see the new comments we’ve posted recently. ❤
Love your energy guys!
You guys may already have watched this show tbut if not, I would love to see you making a series of reacting to Stranger Things. Just a suggestion. As always, thank you for sharing your videos with us.
So we have not seen the show at all actually but I know a lot of people like it and I see the merchandise at Walmart. Eventually we are going to watch it. I’m sure.
Bittersweet fact: Sir Ian Holm developed Parkinson’s disease and it got quite nasty. He stopped acting altogether, but Peter Jackson and crew were hoping to have him reprise his role as Bilbo, and he agreed as a favor to Peter, and I like to think he did it for the fans too. He couldn’t fly to New Zealand, so they set up a private studio in London with a small crew and all the time in the world. There, he gave his final performance (I believe this is his last acting job), and one that I think should and can and be appreciated by all. I think he was flawless. RIP Sir Ian Holm.
Yes and Martin Freeman doubled for Ian Holm in all the shots where you don't see his face. He even mimicked Holm's line deliverance to help Elijah Wood have an easier time reacting to him.
God bless him
Wow. I never knew he had Parkinsons... I thought he was just old... that makes it so much more dear.
Balin, the white bearded dwarf, is the one shown in Moria, in Lord of the Rings. He's in the light beamed tomb that Gimli finds, and who Gimli kept talking about when the Fellowship was going to Moria.
And Ori is the one beside his tomb with a book in his hands.
"In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit" and so forth is the beginning of the book, which JRR Tolkien wrote on a paper he was grading at the time.
I nice little thing: in LOTR Bilbo offers Gandalf wine, but he just asks for tea instead. In The Hobbit, Gandalf is offered tea, but asks for wine instead. Happens in both the movies and the books.
Fun Fact: per canon, Bilbo is 50 YEARS OLD when he went off with the Dwarves in this movie, which means that since he was celebrating his 111th birthday in The Lord of the Rings, a full 60 YEARS passed between movies!
"I'm gonna cry for some reason. Are you supposed to cry?"
agreed lol and im glad im not alone i had this feeling of straight heartbreak, excitement and idk it felt like when i hear that music it makes me so genuinely happy it makes me extremely emotional lol!
Barely a few minutes into the reaction, but the tears at the beginning of the movie gave me goosebumps. Just goes to show the nostalgia and amazement the lord of the rings leaves and it really builds this movie up from the start.
Every reactor I've seen reacting to The Hobbit has asked "Why in the world do dragons want gold?", and I'm like, "You didn't know that? Yeah, dragons covered gold." Then I realized... my mom read The Hobbit to me when I was a little girl, so I've always just taken it as a given. 🙂
lol yeah i’m over here like what’s he about to spend it on? a cow?
The popular theory is dragons catch their bedding on fire if flammable, and metal isn't. The softest metal is gold. It's the best theory I've heard all things considered.
I mean... all the older stories, pre-How to Train Your Dragon generally had dragons have a fascination with gold to the point of hoarding. (Even if it wasn't gold, they hoarded *something.*)
It's always been such a common fact of dragon mythology that, quite honestly, people not knowing about it is strange. Book readers, mythology lovers and fantasy nerds don't even question it, the same way sports fans don't question why people wear "lucky underwear" or the colors of their favorite teams in the hopes that, that will help their team win. It doesn't logically make sense, but it's almost always been that way.
I think it's just a sign of how little people read or watch/listen to the older stories nowadays. Dragons hoarding gold is common mythology, just as unicorns being attracted to virgins is. People who don't know these mythological facts simply don't know the fantasy genre *at all.*
@@silversamurai0267 Dragons hoarded treasure in Narnia, too
"We could make for the Hidden Valley" (Mrs. October) "He's not a ranch fan." I almost coughed up a lung. Thank you guys so much for doing this.
so glad someone understands me lol i didn’t think anyone would get it
@@TheOctobersReact You guys always have these subtle quick-witted quips, and it cracks me up so much! Ya'll are AWESOME.
@@calchambers605it’s lovely. I heard a while back they wanted to react to the behind the scenes documentaries too.
Bilbo did give Frodo his sword, Sting. It glows when orcs are around.
Please keep in mind that the tone of the Hobbit films is different than TLOTR, and it’s meant to be. The Hobbit book was written with younger kids in mind. That’s why some of the dialogue is sillier, some of the scenes have less blood and less mortal danger, etc, compared to LOTR because the films mirror the tone of the books.
Also, you can see one of the trolls that turned to stone in Fellowship of the Ring. A nice little callback to the Hobbit story that they put in the film.
Book,singular. LotR was originally one massive tome, but the publisher knew they couldn't market it that way, and forced it to be broken up. The Hobbit was nowhere near that long, as a single book.
@@paulkondon films, plural, referring to all the films. Books, plural, referring to both books. That’s what I meant. 😊Please stop trying to correct other adults. It’s rude, and you were also wrong in this case. We can argue semantics and grammar and syntax all day long, but either way, nobody asked for your correction, and I knew what I wrote when I wrote it. I’m sure you probably didn’t mean any offense, and it’s no big deal. Just sayin. 👍
My correction was for other people who aren't familiar with any of the books, and who might also be thinking The Hobbit was a trilogy in the same way The Lord of the Rings was. No offense intended. A major knock of the Hobbit movies was they were too long, and I agree with that. But how do you get Ian McKellen to come back to play a minor background character, which is Gandalf's role in the book? Deus ex machina when the Company gets into trouble that Bilbo can't get them out of. Gandalf's arc in the Hobbit movie is prelude to LotR, mostly in service to LotR movie fans who might not enjoy The Hobbit on its own as a children's story.
Don’t let anyone tell you this isn’t a good story! The music itself is worth the watch! I hope you guys enjoyed 😊 Mrs October im very emotional when it comes to these movies too.. no shame.. you guys are awesome ❤
It’s fine considering they had no time to do it properly as they’d like! Deltoro ran away in the middle of taking the movies into a nose dive so they begged PJ to come back and then he assembled the original WETA team and so forth.
anytime i see frodos face i think ill just cry. ill never forget that wonderful story!
well, if it were 2 movies, it would be 2 really good movies. If it were 1 movie, it would be 1 great movie. 3 movies and it just isnt so good.
Bilbo gave Frodo "Sting" his magic elvish sword at Rivendell when they reunited for the meeting of the fellowship. 😅
Did they forget that?
Just an opinion on this one about why Hobbits don't wear shoes. Firstly, their feet are very tough and resilient, so no need. Secondly, Hobbits are tied to the earth and growing things. Going without shoes keeps them in touch with the earth. A fun bit, Radagast the Brown is played by Sylvester McCoy, who played the 7th Doctor in Dr. Who. Seems fitting that a wizard should be played by the Doctor.
In the extended version theres a scene at the beginning where Gandalf meets Bilbo when Bilbo is an adventurous child. Thats why Gandalf says ‘youve changed’.
Gandalf picked bilbo because he needed a hobbit - hobbits can make themselves invisible to ‘large folk’ (and, in the first pages of the book, tolkuen makes it clear they still exist but you will rare;y see them). And he picked Bilbo because bilbo’s mother is a Took. And the Tooks are the most adventurous and courageous of the hobbits - especially the biggest hobbit (until pip and merry grow) ‘bullroarer’ brandobas Took, a leader of hobbits in battle and an ancestor of bilbo’s.
Ps you met balin before - in the tomb of moria.
You know where second breakfast comes from? In the book, Bilbo departs home a bit differently. He doesn’t grab the contract and run off. He sleeps late, thinks he’s off the hook, and is enjoying his “second breakfast” when Gandalf returns to round him up. The movie’s a bit more dramatic. But “second breakfast” is never actually used in the LOTR books, it was one of those things the filmmakers took from The Hobbit in making the LOTR movies - there are a few callbacks like that.
Between the two trilogies, "Hobbiton" itself was built (and remains as a tourist destination) in complete, instead of just a simple set front. Several "Hobbit holes" were built and the whole village is there now. The first trilogy, LOTR, there was just some simple fronts set up and a "bagend" hut for filming. New Zealand has become the hobbit destination on the planet.
Gandalf (Olórin) created/Invented Fireworks. He’s a Maia after all. And hobbits tend to have resilience to evil to keep it simple. they’re very small and agile.
Glad yall are not listening to the haters and watching this trilogy!!
Mrs. October, you go right ahead and cry all you want. I did the same from the start of Return of the King, and also The Hobbit... as soon as that music started up, my eyes were leaking like someone hit me in the face with a big old bag of onions. 🤗❤
For the Return of the King, I didn't even go see it in theaters, because I didn't want to watch it until the Extended Edition was available a full YEAR after initial release, because those always added like 45 minutes to an hour to the movie.
i think anytime i see frodos face ill just cry bc of that beautiful freaking story!
@@TheOctobersReact those movies are an investment in time, emotions, etc. No spoilers, but did y'all know that between the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit series movies that there was some stupid drama between New Line and another bigger studio (Paramount maybe?), and all us fans at the time were being teased with *possibly* getting Hobbit movie(s) to follow up the LOTR movies that had already made us all big fans, and that they tried to get someone other than Peter Jackson to direct it? IIRC the little guys won b/c everyone, including the proposed replacement director, refused to do the film without Peter Jackson and WETA (his special effects house). I don't think anything in this universe is going to top the LOTR trilogy, but they did this movie justice and allowed us all to go back to Hobbiton for a while again. There's was a little stink at the time about people hoping for a Tom Bombadil cameo, but for the general population, everything was fine. :) ❤
Gandalf drew a rune that stands for "G" as in Gandalf. The same rune he carved in a small stone on Weather Top for Aragorn to find letting him know he had been there. 😅
Captain Jerk: " Lieutenant Snot!"
Ltn Snot: "Snot here!"
Captain Jerk: "What's not there Snotty"
Ltn Snot: "Aw, nevermind.". 😂
Aww, I've been waiting for this one! I'm glad you both decided to check out the Hobbit! As i mentioned during your LOTR videos, while the Hobbit may not be on the same level as LOTR, it still has a lot of character story and emotional moments. Unfortunately, Peter Jackson was heavily rushed at the time he was making these so he was forced to use more CGI than he would've liked. However, i still enjoy the Hobbit trilogy as well. Also, you'll notice quite a few references to LOTR. Keep an eye out for callbacks to this first movie as you get to Desolation of Smaug and Battle/5 armies.
As always, if you have any questions about anything or want more clarity on a particular moment etc, feel free to let me know here or on your disc! :)
Cheers!
Also Tolkien loved tobacco and his pipe from documentaries ive seen but i also think he left it up to interpretation of the reader/viewer to believe what they want it to be 😊 i like to think its the feel good stuff lol
No, he didn't leave it up to the interpretation of the reader. He specifically stated, in more than one place, that pipeweed is tobacco. Jackson's somewhat juvenile sense of humor (the source of some of the most un-Tolkienlike lines in his films) caused him to playfully suggest otherwise, but Tolkien was not ambiguous on this point.
My all time favorite story.
My mom, god rest her soul, read us the hobbit as a bedtime story. Yes we were poor, but mom would always read to us for at least 30 minutes every night. ages 4-12.
It took a few months , but she also read us many others. Such as "the dragon riders of Pern" and " Dune". I believe those reading helped each of her 3 children become very imaginative and we are all successful problem solvers to this day
Thanks for the reaction!
Dragons hoard gold for two reasons:
Gold is a soft metal, and is _just_ the right malleability to make a great bed for one who is armored in dragon scales.
It also attracts adventurers, who make for handy snacks when the opportunity arises :P
I’ve been waiting for this one ❤ good to get back to this with you guys 🎉
24:51 Gandalf: Home is behind you. The world ahead.
Pippin’s song in Return of the King
If Gandalf says you're a burglar then you are guilty! 🧑⚖️
The trolls turning to stone was the story bilbo was telling the children hobbits at his party in fellowship of the ring
when the time comes to react to the behind the scenes playlist you can take it as a break from the world while you just happen to be recording your viewing of it if that makes sense. So then it’s less like work if you know what I mean. It’ll make you cry even more than the movies did!
Cant wait for part 2, hopefully we get it soon
Me seeing anything related to The Hobbit movies: **shaking cane in old man rage** "Goddang Hollywood whippersnappers! When I was a kid, The Hobbit was a great book not some farkakte CGI monstrosity! And there was only 1 part! In my day we didn't need trilogies except for the star wars and TLOTR, now those were real trilogies ...*rabble rabble rabble* Get the helloffa my Goddang lawn!"
The Lord of the rings was og one book split into three parts to help brake up the chapter amount.
im so happy you guys love LOTR its amazing , i started watching my favourite and first movie when i was 4 -16 years ago
I watched The Hobbit movies before Lord of the Rings (LOTR) and I enjoyed it. Thranduil is my favorite character.
In my opinion, The Hobbit is a fun movie series to introduce youngsters to the world of JRR Tolkien.
Or, ya know, maybe a book would be even better…
I dont know why, watching you guys react to the movie is giving me goosebumps
I love these movies. I'm excited you're going to watch them.
Cool cool been waiting for you guys to check out these movies 😊
Trilogy The Hobbit Extended Edition Of The Adventures Of Bilbo Baggin:
(1) An Unexpected Journey Extended Edition
(2) The Desolation Of Smaug Extended Edition
(3) The Battle Five Armie Extended Edition
I'm not crying. You're crying I start tearing up just the mention of this story. I just started rereading The Hobbit last week.
Gandalf chose Bilbo for being in the family lineage of the Tooks, which you noted Pippin is a direct descendant of. ("Fool of a Took!" As in, of all your noble family lineage, you sir, are the fool in the family.) There were two Tooks who were Companions of Gandalf, to borrow a Dr. Who reference. As in, Gandalf swept in, picked up one of the Tooks as a Companion, went on a (series of) adventures with them. Bilbo's mother was named Belladonna Took, and she was the ninth child of 'the Old Took', Gerontius. Bilbo's grand-dad. Old Took was a former Companion of Gandalf. And Old Took's grandfather was a Companion of Gandalf in his day. So we have a pattern where every other generation, Gandalf comes and grabs a Took and goes on an adventure.
Bilbo was the best Took bloodline for the job. So Gandalf made him his Companion, and in doing so, eventually defeated Sauron.
Don't worry about crying. It's the epic music. Its like designed to play with your emotions lol
This trilogy is so underrated and awesome reaction.
There are 2 blue wizards that left long ago to the East, a brown wizard, a grey wizard, and a white. Radagast and Gandalf (not the first names they had) are immortal shape shifters and continually reincarnate. They are of about equal power, and both are quite powerful. The blue wizards are not mentioned much.
"He's not a ranch fan" was a underrated 10/10 joke
lol thanks for that
Yesssss! Remember this is Bilbo's story before Lord Of The Rings! Hope you enjoy it!
The "Hobbit weed" pictured in the book, looks similar to another flower with psychotropic effects, Salvia divornum. A strong but short lasting hallucinagenic South American plant.
Oh yesss. The day finally came❤
8:01 I had no idea Shuri's favorite Colonizer, Everett K Ross is in this.
Part two seems to have gotten hit with copyright. The playlist says 2 but only part one is there haha.
Also those stoned trolls made a cameo in FOTR when aragorn was leading the hobbits to Rivendale if u wanna look back at it 🎶🎧🎶
Darn, I really wanted to hear the Dwarves sing "Far over the Misty Mountains Cold".
Several bass singers on RUclips perform this song....
I LOVE Tim and peters version of that song. Its soo beautiful the song and the video. Looks like it was made for the movie🥰
22:13 The movies weren't exactly what I wanted but they were still good, they had perfect moments like this one here, the entire cinema was in such awe, it was such a great experience.
The actual enmity certain clans of elves had with dwarves of certain clans is due to one of the greatest elven kings ever in middle earth was killed by dwarves over the Nauglamir (which was a whole story I won’t go into since there is a lot that lead to it and that ensued after that that chain reacted other semi-non related events to take place that were super important to the story and the third age ever coming into existence since the War Of Wrath and the apprehending of Morgoth after that 80 year long war lead to the second age coming into fruition.) Let’s just say even further back there were a race of beings known as the petty dwarves. They weren’t dwarves in the sense we know them. They were the first things elves encountered and these petty dwarves were hostile and so when eventually they came across dwarves after their forefathers woke up and long after they had their own long lineages, thought they were the petty dwarves and killed them on sight. This was not long before or after Men came into the scene and were discovered by Galadriel’s brother Finrod Felagund(Felagund is the name given to him by the dwarves. They physically Created the fortress of Nargothrond). He and his youngest sister were great friends with the dwarves long before Gimli and Legolas was ever born!
I wanted Gandalf to tell Bilbo to stab with the pointy end....
Hes one of those YEAHHHHH😂
Remember in LOTR in the mines of Moria when Gimli ran into a tomb and Gandalf says " Here lies Balin " that's him the old dwarf with the white beard , altough i think Thorin was older then Balin if i'm not mistaken , can't remember someone correct me if i'm wrong
Balin was older. He was retainer from the group belonging to Thror and Thrain.
@@Makkaru112i did a little bit of research and apparently Thorin is 17 years older then Balin
Qué bueno volverlos a ver reaccionando al maravilloso mundo de Tolkien. Los quiero!! Un abrazo desde Argentina♥
This book started me on my reading journey many, many years ago. It has a special place in my heart.
Did you know there are 25 books in total?
The Hobbit(There and Back Again) [1937] The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship( 1954) The Two Towers (1954) The Return of the King (1955) The Silmarillion (1977) Unfinished Tales (1980),Children of Húrin (2007) Beren and Lúthien (2017) The Fall of Gondolin (2018) The History of Middle-earth (12 volumes, published between 1983-1996):
- The Book of Lost Tales, Part One (1983)
- The Book of Lost Tales, Part Two (1984)
- The Lays of Beleriand (1985)
- The Shaping of Middle-earth (1986)
- The Lost Road and Other Writings (1987)
- The Return of the Shadow (1988)
- The Treason of Isengard (1989)
- The War of the Ring (1990)
- Sauron Defeated (1992)
- Morgoth's Ring (1993)
- The War of the Jewels (1994)
- The Peoples of Middle-earth (1996)
I apologize for the confusion. "Laws and Customs of the Eldar" was actually first published as a part of "Morgoth's Ring" in the year 1993. However, it was later re-published as a separate book with the same title in 2018, edited by Christopher Tolkien.
I missed “The Lay of Leithien" which is an ancient style long narrative poem by J.R.R. Tolkien, which tells the story of Beren and Lúthien, one of the great love stories of Middle-earth. Other stories were included in it too which helps us glean so much more information on what else was happening in that era in a more satisfying way. The poem was initially written in the 1920s and 1930s, and was later revised and expanded by Tolkien over the years. It was eventually published posthumously in the book "The Lays of Beleriand" as part of "The History of Middle-earth" series in 1985.
@@Makkaru112 I read (and re-re-re-read) the Hobbit and the LotR Trilogy. I also read the Silmarillion but it was a little too textbookish.
@@ronlackey2689 it’s not really text book ish. It reads as an EPICA style mix of stories and historical accounts. He was reviving ancient knowledge and languages from pre Christian England. Especially helping rekindle the language and culture of the Anglo Saxons crushed and totally erased by the Norman war etc.
@@ronlackey2689 it’s more entertaining to watch GirlNextGondor, Tolkien Untangled, The Red Book. And Tales Of The Rings
The 5 wizards are Saruman, Gandalf, the 2 blue wizards, and Radagast the brown.
After the seriousness of the GoT episodes it's easy to see you enjoy the lighter feel of The Hobbit. Try to remember what you see is a representation of what Bilbo is writing in his book. Not that there isn't fantastical creatures, locations or individuals in Middle Earth, but the way it plays out reminds me more of being shown rather than seeing. I appreciated the tie-ins to the Lord of the Rings trilogy even though it didn't exist when this was written.
no doubt it’s almost a palette cleanser lol
Balin is the dwarf in the grave in the Mines of Moria in LOTR. Gimli is the son of Gloin.
You guys are awesome! Idk if you guys know but there's an extention version of all three movies. I hope you guys are doing well. 😊
we absolutely are thank you so much for the kind words and the super thanks we appreciate you
The Extended Edition shows that the Dwarves held a necklace Thranduil had given his wife that was lost when she was killed by orcs. The Dwarves won it in battle but refused to return it to Thranduil. However, they showed that they had it as it was on the top of the chest of jewel that they showed Thranduil.
Echoed somewhat by Elrond's wife nearly dying when she was attacked by orcs. Its not just the Dwarves who have a grievance with the orcs
Please The Hobbit Extended Edition
Love your energy ! Hope you both get to react to the fun behind the scenes documentaries that were made for both LOTR and The Hobbit. Many channels are soon to do this since I’ve been working closely behind the scenes myself with other channels who wish to check them out reaction style since they loved the movies so much and wished to become part of the “fandom” we didn’t use that word before until all the games and movies and books came out they were all inspired by Tolkiens works and by extension. Big time was Peter Jackson and his giant team that brought it all to life.
can you send us your list one more time we screen shotted it and now we can’t find it since we got a new computer! we really wanna do this
@@TheOctobersReact I’m so sorry that happened. I’ll send that on discord.
@@TheOctobersReact it won’t send because I’m not set as a friend anymore to Mr October. He needs to accept the friend request.
4:40 I think Morgoth (who was Sauron's master) had influence over gold and he also created the dragons I think.
You cry like i do... because its epic perfection... the music, the shire... the love... its special
How’s the fun behind the scenes documentaries of both the hobbit and LOTR going? Are they solely on patreon ?
finally... hope u liked it get ready for 3rd movie
The Hobbit is an awesome movie (of course nothing is ever exactly like LOTR)! Don't listen to the haters they never satisfied :)
These trolls are the three you saw in Fellowship Of The Ring only they were stone. Gandalf turns them to stone in the first Hobbit movie.
I still love this movie
You mentioned Bilbo in Marvel as a villen but he was a good guy. It was Gallum who was Claw in the MCU

A great supplement to read before these books called The Road To Middle Earth by Tom Shippey(a great friend of JRR Tolkien himself. But who was also still one of the most accredited Tolkien scholars around and is equally as educated as he was. He’s also in the behind the scenes documentary stuff too which is awesome.
It’s best feature is preparing people for these books in a sense. It’s a great book. It’s not like a how to book either. It’s hard to explain. It’s like it assists with helping people enter in on the right foot to understand the language Tolkien uses since his books were the way he single-handedly revived the archaic languages but put them into a medium and format that was a mixture between the old and modern at the time.
i was wondering when you'd react to this masterpiece of a trilogy
Bilbo gave frodo his sword when he got to Rivendel
the lord of the rings is a fantasy novel. dark and serious
Hobbit is a tale for children. written before LOTR.
So that's why it feels different.
just coming to watch you guys cry like you did for lord of the rings lol..... and you didn't disappoint. 2 seconds into the movie, you're already in tears lol🤣
lol right
Honestly my family enjoys this one more than LotR... Hobbit has those Dwarf roadtrip vibes, and the music is so fire
I hear you’re doing the GOT lore videos? Which channels so far have been suggested? This could be a great way to Segway into stuff i mentioned in previous LOTR reaction videos of yours. Or to make it easier: start with the behind the scenes documentary I sent to your husbands DM a long while back. I really hope I didn’t annoy anyone or something. You sounded excited so it got me pumped enough to send the link there and everything ❤😂
i absolutely agree with you. we def are gonna have to do this
@@TheOctobersReact let me provide the right videos to start with. Things tend to be confusing without the right starter pack is how I call it haha.
Read the books guys. I know they're long, but it's well worth it
Elijah Wood was 19 when they filmed Lord of the Rings. He was 29 when they filmed The Hobbit, so they had to digitally youthen him. That's why he looks slightly different.
I dunno.. at first i was having trouble to believe in ur reacts. I mean, how come u guys never saw any of the stuff u react to? It's the base of the pop culture. But the reactions are so legit. I'm loving it and i am addicted to it. Shout out from Brasil y'all. I'm a fan ❤
some of us over here are uncultured and we fall in that category
@@TheOctobersReactthank God for that. You guys gave me a whole lotta new content to watch. Keep up with the good work. 🙏🏽
Well for me, grown-up I was just a huge sports fan so if I didn’t have anything to do with sports or playing sports or watching sports, I’ll probably didn’t have time for it. Growing up at night me and my friends would stay outside playing basketball all night and we never watch movies like literally never.
Dragons covet gold because it is a soft metal and therefore is the softest bedding materal that wont catch fire as they sleep.
I know you guys are watching the GoT lore videos, Lord of the Rings have a lot of lore videos out there that will help you with information you’re missing!
I’ve been giving them channels to start with since their LOTR video days. So if they’re already reacting to those videos than wtf lol
So. Are they reacting to the in depth ones like the one the Irish guy did? The guy who reacts to movies with his son? Sofa and Chill I think?
They haven’t reacted to any LotR Lore yet, that’s what I was trying to get them to watch! Lol
The Dragons in Game of Thrones have NOTHING against Smaug. He would pick his teeth with all three of them.
AGREED. Spears and big spears launched by catapults can't pierce Smaug's dragon scales. Plus,Smaug is very intelligent and thinks for himself,like a human. That makes him very,very dangerous.

@@Makkaru112 Is this from the books ???
23:14 does he feel like he is giving away alpha vibe, he wants to do things his way.. guys he is litterally the Prince his grandfather was the King at the beggining of the movie, ofcourse that he will give away alpha vibes
Haven't started watching yet because I'm at work. If you aren't watching the extended editions you should. They're better.
Glad to see you guys!!! Remember The Hobbit was written before LOTR and it was intended as a children story. Can't wait to see you're first impression of X-Men❤
Its the few goofy outlandish parts that make people disslike it but I dont care. Its an amazing trilogy.
Cant wait for part 2.
Don't worry about all the haters. I hope it's a good story line. I'm not sure why people don't like it
So you see Thranduil the elf king refuse to help the dwarves when Smaug(pronounced Sm ow g)attacked. This is why Gimli distrusted and didn't like Legolas at the beginning of Fellowship Of The Ring!
they really did a poor way of showing why did Thranduil act the way he does and because of that thru the all of the movies he just seem like an asshole
It’s actually much deeper. Learn about the Giant story to do with the Nauglamir through GirlNextGondor/TheRedBook/TolkienUntangled etc.
Wait til the final scene in the 3rd film
я сплю? неужели вышла реакция на Хоббита🙂
I’ve always been curious. Which one of the two is likely the one to be replying to people on here? Sorry I get curious about things sometimes. (It’s probably to do with my autism). 😅❤
mostly Mrs O lol
I'm a huge Tolkien fan and I like the Hobbit Trilogy. LOTR is a masterpiece of cinema, it is pretty much impossible to top. The Hobbit is a much shorter book, one that was written by Tolkien as a childrens book - so it would be very hard to make into a full movie, it would be 20 minutes long! So I understand why they had to add things, I do think they went a bit too far adding things that were actually impossible and don't make sense according to Tolkiens writings - but I can live with that. I love all the books, but any return to Jacksons Middle Earth is amazing - and literally give me The Hobbit over the utter catastrophe of Amazons Rings Of Power - that basically stamped on Tolkiens grave!
All the wizards are basically what Moses spoke to in the desert when he saw the Burning Bush.
Humans do not have magical powers in this world with some extra small exceptions.
This explains Gandalf's voice when he's angry. Doesn't it sound divine?
dosnt he just speaks black speach or the language of Mordor, cant remember the exact name, also here wizards are not humans so they do have a magic just that they are not meant to use it, there is also a part where they are nerfed for the sake of the story since both Saruman and Gandalf could wipe each others forces singlehandedly but that wouldnt be fun so they are nerfed down to old mans with sticks and wise words
@@Ciffer-1998 you clearly didn’t get me at all.
Yes, you absolutely are supposed to cry.
In the first 40secs you said something that illustrates perfectly the biggest issue with this trilogy. You said this film was a "prequel" and while I concede that this is a prequel to the LOTR movies, The Hobbit was not written as a prequel to the LOTR books. Lord of the Rings is a sequel to The Hobbit. It matters that The Hobbit was written first. This film's desperation to associate itself with the original trilogy is it's biggest downfall. With that said, I still had plenty of fun watching it
