(7:44) "He's just talking to himself and replying, as if he was two different people." - "Yeah, he's freaking nuts" Imagine to be so used to Ryan and his format to take a moment to get that joke. xD
I just love the idea of that guy at the beginning who didn’t throw the ring in and the elf awkwardly walking back down that huge mountain with the elf being like “Are you really not gonna do it?” “Nope” “Are you sure?” “Nope, it’s mine now.” “Come on man just do it” “Don’t make me zap you!” “ *sighs* “
I love that people laugh about things like that in LotR but then crucify The Hobbit for the smallest things they dislike. (Oh wait I actually don't love that.)
To be totally totally nerdy with canon. That elf, Elrond , had one of the 3 elven rings of power. He could do nothing against that "guy"- Isildur, who had got the One Ring from Sauron . or he would have been corrupted by the power of the One Ring. Galadriel, female elf Queen , also had one of the elven rings, and she showed Frodo what would happen to an elf ring holder if they came under the power of the One Ring in the first LotR movie. Addenda- Also note how Gandaulf , who had the other Eleven ring of Power, dared not touch the One Ring, as it almost corrupted him , just by him seeing it and him reaching for it on the floor when it was in no-one's possession in Bag-End. He was reduced to a babbling fool until the next morning when Frodo picked it up off the floor though I forget how much of that scene is canon to the book. The elven rings were highly attuned to the One.
@@chrisperrien7055. Yah, but the one ring only takes from what power you have inside you and although he was a pretty good fighter he didn’t have a lot of mystical power while Giladrial does. Wouldn’t he just turn invisible? Idk a lot about this stuff so correct because if I’m wrong
Me: "Why are you watching a 36 minute long compilation of someone talking to himself about a movie that was released 20 years ago?" "I don't know" "Fair enough"
"He is just talking to himself and replying as if he was 2 different people" "Yeah he's freaking nuts" "Oh this guy's got problems" *embarrassing laughter*
The comedic timing on the Return of the King's multiple endings culminating in the pitch (pun intended) perfect "Oh My God" at 17:06 is absolutely hilarious. Brilliant work, sir. Just brilliant.
“Okay so the trees were treated poorly and now they want revenge?” “That’s perfect I love it” “Oh that’s just M. Knight” 7:05 BRO THE HAPPENING LMAO what a reference
"Killing Sean Bean is tight!!" is so believable as a thing modern day directors saying in the last couple of decades lol It's like a badge of honor or something 😂😂
When you've watched extended cut so many times you forget Saruman dying isn't in the theatrical release. Yikes. "A very athletic human torch" "If Enya's music was a person" These two got me good.
"And, so, Aragorn be like 'You have my sword.' And this elf Legolas, he's like 'You have my bow.'" "Why is everyone accusing him of theft all of a sudden?" . This is genius xD
I've been re-reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy since the early 1970s, and watched al lthe movies 4 or 5 times...and it wasn't until I watched this compilation that I suddenly saw the giant plot hole Ryan pointed out about the why the mithril shirt didn't help Frodo when Shelob stabbed him with her stinger.
Stung in the neck. The Tolkien plot holes occur because the Hobbit and the first few chapter of the LOtR occurred before he fully wrote out his world history. 99% of the humor here came from all the logical issues, disgusting rewrites, and awful direction of Peter Jackson.
The producers excitement, shock and surprise every time he says "that's from the other thing" or "that's the name of the movie" is my favorite thing lol
@@Drblock21 No but the script of the movie changes some stuff, adds a lot of conflict between characters that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. The scene with Isildur and Elrond never happens in the book, because nobody actually thinks much about the ring. Faramir never cares about the ring, he lets Frodo go and Gollum betrays them of his own accord. In the books, the Ents actually vote to go to war, instead of voting no, before seeing the trees all cut down. Not that all of these are bad changes, making Smeagol a more tragic character was really great, but there is a decent amount of original writing in the movies that Tolkien didn't have a hand in.
Me: Why am I watching this? I already saw all three movies (I think) and never had any inclination to watch The Hobbit. Also Me: Wait, they turned the Hobbit into 3 movies??
"That will make the cherry tomato industry have a rough couple of years." Sooooo funny. This whole thing is excellent. Orcs have had cockney accents since the 70s or 80s though when games workshop based them on English football hooligans. Still not a great explanation though lol
Tolkien was English and LOTR was written as a replacement for the lost lore of pre-Roman England. So the Orcs having what's perceived as low class British accents make sense.
As someone who hates tomatoes, that scene actually made me want to give them another chance. It also really made me want one of those supermarket rotisserie chickens.
Yeah i love the movie and i also love the ending, but its like 30 minutes of ending. Like did we really NEED the slomo cheesy scene where everyone randomly goes into frodos room after he woke up? Was there no way to shorten any of it? Still a great movie though
"We're also gonna give Legolas this amazing action sequence where I failed physics in high school." I was drinking tea when he said this. Five seconds later I was hunched over the trash can trying to blow the remnants of tea from my nose.
LOVE how you broke the fourth wall talking about Gollum talking to himself as two different people… and you talk to yourself on these videos in a similar way! 🤣🤣🤣
I'll never forget when the trilogy was released hanging out with friends and spending the entire weekend watching the extended versions. Smoking weed and making breakfast. Best. trilogy. ever.
I strongly believe that the unibrow guy is somebody's relative, I mean like the studio president cousin or son, because in my mind there is no other way to him has so much screen time like he have
Since Gandalf said "a wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he needs to", does it mean that he planned to not take part to Minas Tirith battle until it already started and a lot of people already died although he could obviously have saved many lives by arriving earlier ?
We have all different techniques to deal with the trauma, I still to this day support the organization that wants the actor to apologize for his acting lmao :P
Can we do a Pitch Meeting for Gods of Egypt? I want to see him go wild with that train wreck. For example: Writer: "And then Scottish God asks if Jamie Lannister still never misses." Producer: "Okay." Writer: "But just before Jamie throws his spear Scottish God shines a bit of sunlight into his eyes and Jamie misses." Producer: "So he misses his throw even though he is never supposed to miss?" Writer: "That's right sir." Producer: "Well sunlight is bright, so I don't see any problem with that." Writer: "Well great~"
Actual pitch for LotR: _It's the story of the classic trilogy that defined the entire fantasy genre for the past half century, and spawned all role-playing games._ Actual pitch for 'The Hobbit': (studio comes to directors in role-reversal) _Please make more LotR, the most popular movie trilogy _*_ever,_*_ that won 11 Oscars!_
Fun fact: Tolkien himself actually said why they couldn't fly the eagles into mordor when answering to one letter, let me quote him: "So the reason is.. is... shut up." ~ J.R.R Tolkien
Very easy to spot an eagle flying into Mordor, which the Nazgul would immediately swarm and attack. Not to mention putting the ring in the hands (talons?) of such a powerful creature is a big risk. Even Gandalf admitted that he wouldn't have the will to resist its temptation.
It's interesting to see how many theories about why eagles couldn't have been used are floating around, given that Tolkien himself basically admitted the gotcha.
@@neoroman0510 That, or got annoyed by all the people asking him so stopped actually giving in-depth reasons and instead just said "shut up". There are quite a few reasons both in Lord of the Rings and in his overall works, so someone asking means they just didn't pay attention. Its still something of a flaw in the films, as the reasons aren't AS clear, but there are still some reasons present in the films themselves.
I am biased, but I notice, compared to many other Pitch Meetings, that we made it almost two and a half minutes into the Pitch before any moments that could be described in a ridiculous manner lol. Quality.
“And then Gandalf ends up falling” “Where does he fall?” “Into the sequel” “Never trust anybody with worm in their name” (Wormtail cough cough Harry Potter cough)
The cockney accents are actually explained in the appendices of the novels. They speak a debased version of "westron", so Tolkien used cockney, a "debased" version of RP to portray the orcs speech.
You could also look at them being working class grunts, of a sort, and the cockney accent is a pretty blue-collar one. So the cockney accent being used as "debased" Westron is quite classist but it totally works in context.
"We're gonna meet this bad guy Sauron, and he's just super evil" "What's his thing, character-wise?" "He's just super evil" "I love it" Laughing hysterically already
