WHAT AN ABSOLUTE ADVENTURE! The Lord of the Rings The Two Towers (2002) Reaction (Extended Edition) 

thanks for the kind words we love this journey! cannot wait for the third!

Which channels have you seen react to this trilogy before? I’d like to recommend others for you since I’ve seen nearly all of them up this point.

definitely not but alright

aw yikes 😬

The third is the best! Can’t wait to see!

His delivery of the poem before battle is astonishing. It's a real poem originally in Old English, but Tolkein translated it and even updated it slightly, to suggest Theoden improvising a version to suit the occasion.

That character was so good! I imagine in his youth he was a strong, smart & brave warrior & leader, someone like Boromir or Aragorn. But then Grima started poisoning his mind for years until he became just an empty shell. So satisfying to see him get his senses back, and even if he was past his prime, still leading by example, taking good decisions, riding into battle with his men. His speech before the Charge of the Rohirrim at Gondor, and his quick thinking & tactics adjustment (e.g. when the Oliphants arrived) makes me wish all leaders should be like him. Bernhard Hill was phenomenal in this.

@@harpiyonRIP BERNARD

He did an awesome job T Awsomecon recently too. And he openly began live readings of The Silmarillion recently too!!

Serkis recently had a great live-action role as Kino Loy in the Star Wars show Andor. It's one of the very few things Star Wars got right in recent years, and although Serkis isn't part of the main cast, his character is by far one of the most memorable.

I would have nominated him for Best Supporting actor for this film... epic performance!

Tru dat!👌

47:32 I was going to comment regarding this part, but i decided to back up your comment because it encompasses everything that was going on in my mind. Sorry for any grammar mistakes, English is not my native language.

It was both, it was the coordination if the sunrise and the fact that Gandalf is the wielder of the flame of Anor, which is the Sun itself. That's the ring of power he has too (the ring of fire basically).

​@ragmuth7623 no it is because a wizard is never late nor early he arrives precisely when he means to a life in the first movie paid off in the 2 towers

just seen this and omg yeah lol i couldn’t figure out how else to describe it lol

If you play some game like Mount and Blade or other fantasy games, you will easily understand how Tracking work.

@@melon4879 so?

@@feanor4605 The point is, Aragorn trained as a ranger. While Legolas didn't. Legolas being an elf doesn't mean he is automatically good at tracking. Legolas specifically trained as an archer warrior not a ranger. If Legolas trained as a ranger, his tracking would be as good as Aragorn's.

@@jenniferhamels1176 I didn't ask you

😆@@feanor4605

Yes. He urged people to stop glorifying war.

Not even the Green Bay Packers Super Bowl win in 2011? The one ring.....Super Bowl Ring? Sauron.....Aaron Rogers? It's pretty much one for one!

Tolkien was a brilliant author, but as far as I know, not prophetic, so given his death in 1973...@@cheeseburger12

@@CritterPaladin Are you sure? I think Brett Farve was Sauraman. It's just creepy.

Troll in the dungeon! Crap. Wrong series.@@cheeseburger12

And Tolkien based Meduseld on Heorot Hall in Beowulf. Took my breath away to see it in the movies!

@@Cameron5043 He definitely took a lot from Beowulf. Tolkien is the closest I''ll come to ancient heroic myth. I had a hard time with Chlde Roland in my fairy tale book as a child, and never went deeper.

@@mgentles3 Tolkien will do for the ages!

​@mgentles3 My first thought was he lied in every word, that hoary cripple with malicious eye askance to watch the workings of his lie on mine and mouth scarce able to afford suppression of the glee that pursed and scored it's edge at one more victim gained thereby.... Child Roland to the Dark Tower Came is certainly an epic... It was Stephen King's inspiration for his Magnum Opus: The Dark Tower series.

Of course Hama was killed by the scout before the warg attack, not at Helms Deep.

indeed. Much of that war was an excuse to test out the newly created weapons.

*"...giving Frodo the phial "the light of Elendil"."* *Earendil, our most beloved star ;-)

Elendil: The father of Isildur and Anarion, who died defeating Sauron at the end of the 2nd Age. Aragorn uses his name as a battle-cry at least once in the film. Earendil: The father of Elrond and Elros, who killed Ancalagon the Black, greatest of all dragons, helped defeat Morgoth, the master of Sauron at the end of the 1st Age, and sails through space on his flying ship with a silmaril on his brow as what we call the planet Venus. Only Galadriel mentions him in the film.

And in the book there are further gifts which they cut out of the film, partly because they shortened and changed the ending.

yes we had to go revisit that! dang it!! it woulda been so much more fun if we would have watched kt

@@TheOctobersReact I think the first one has least Extended content but still some bits that are nice to see.

aye, also how the horse riders went right past Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas without noticing them due to the cloaks

Fun Fact: When Gimli is talking about Dwarf women, he's actually referencing another book series called the Chronicles of Narnia wherein the book "The Magician's Nephew", shows the creation of Narnia, in which Dwarves are actually created by springing up from the ground. @@TheOctobersReact

@@DigiVixen matches a bit how Aulë created the Dwarven forefathers from the earth itself. Gimli is directly related to Durin the deathless, The ultimate dwarf! And if need be the memories and essence of all other Durins could pass to him. But if there was no more bloodline directly linking any dwarf could be born with the memories of all other past Durins.

aw that’s so cool i love that

His real name was Uraeus and he was a Warmblood Dressage stallion. There are RU-vid videos years back showing him in Dressage competitions.

Andy Serkis is THE star of this movie. He steals EVERY scene! Motion capture and voice acting was a bit too out of the ordinary for actors at the time, but he should have been nominated for an Oscar.

he’s incredible mr october loves the music it plays when he is on the screen!

that makes it so hilarious lol

Ironic perhaps, but it definitely helped with shooting the movie. Dwarves are short, but still slightly taller than hobbits, which meant that John could stand next to the hobbits and be believable in size, without having to do any tricks (perspective, cgi, overlay, etc) to make him look taller than them

aw, the vhs version! oh the times!

VHS ah the cood times

It was my first as well! I just don't remember why I hadn't seen the first one.

I was 12 when this came out Damn I’m only 32 but I’m old lmao 😂

@@AcornSmokes420 only one year older than us pretty much! you’re not old!

Just to add to your awesome info. The Uruk Hai are indeed different from Orcs. If i'm not mistaken Orcs are twisted and corrupted Elves. Uruk Hai are a blend of Human and Elf. Saurons system (inherited from his old master Morgoth/Melkor) of creating Orcs was something akin to pollution and corruption. Saruman's system built off of that polluting sorcery but introduced his own dark magical gene splicing

@@thedappermagician6905 According to the books, "uruk-hai" just means "orc folk" in the Black Speech of Mordor, but it is used to describe the biggest and strongest of the orcs, regardless of where they serve. The books describe half-orcs created from breeding orcs and humans (vile I'm sure) by Saruman, one of the many evils he committed. In the films, these half-orcs are called Uruk-Hai, which Gandalf says were created by "breeding orcs with goblin men"...which doesn't make sense, because Tolkien said orcs and goblins are the same species, just two different names for them. In the films goblins seem to be the smaller, noseless creatures in Moria...but how would breeding those little things with orcs make Uruk-Hai?

@@rikk319 Orcs are Elves corrupted by Morgoth, the ones who stayed behind at Cuivienen while the rest went with Orome to Aman. They feared the great light of the Vala and stayed with what they knew, hence known as Grey Elves. Morgoth found them and captured no small number of them, twisting them with his dark will into the broken creatures we now know as Orcs. He had to do this because he couldn't create his own life, not having access to the Flame Imperishable that gives mortal beings their souls. Goblins are a mutated and degenerate form of Orc that live almost exclusively underground, such as in the Mines of Moria or the caves riddling the Misty Mountains, and are generally weaker and smaller, but in greater numbers. Uruk-Hai are a hybrid of Man and Orc, making them taller, stronger, hardier, less cowardly, and able to withstand the sunlight (which weakens Orcs and Goblins). Their only real weakness is their relatively small numbers compared to the hordes of Orcs populating Mordor.

“Leave Sauron To Me”. Christopher Lee : “And He Means It” ❤️

They're essentially Lesser Gods, and they're not Human despite looking like old men. They're the same species as the Balrogs. That's why Gandalf didn't want to go through the Mines of Moria, he didn't *know* for sure if he could best the Balrog in battle as they were evenly matched. But the Balrog has the advantage that they can just whip out ALL their power, meanwhile the wizards are bound to certain rules that means they can't just use their power to change whatever they want wherever. That's why Gandalfs magic is more subtle, like using the sunrise to blind the orcs at Helms Deep. He can't just magic out the result he wants in "mans" world, they have to do the bulk of the work themselves. He just gives it a push in the direction he senses is "good."

@@DeadlyChinchilla Exactly right. Tolkien may have inspired Dungeons & Dragons type wizards with his stories, but wizards in Middle-Earth aren't modern day spell casters who hurl fireballs and lightning bolts like some kind of magical superhero...they're divine guides who help the free people of Middle Earth resist the evil of Sauron.

He broke his whole foot and a lot worse during several shootings of many things that day. And throughout the months. They shot all three movies over a span of two years

You mean “Vigo”

Did you see the dozens of hours of behind the scenes documentaries made by the cast and crew!?

NZ Army standins.

AGREED!

@@TheOctobersReactif I have to pay to become a top tier patreon member I’ll make sure you get to react to the hours long SUPER powerful and entertaining behind the scenes documentaries which also show in depth “making of” stuff as well. You’ll watch them all become family during the many years they spent together doing all three movies at the same time before any of them were released. And Peter Jackson just got access to a giant warehouse in the mountains that holds 1300 hours of extra footage which they will use to create special editions to play in theatres soon too

The extras are a MUST have imo. Not to mention the secret Oscar “skit” on one of the extended dvds

@@kcojcoyes. And the special Oscar given to Sméagol himself and Andy Serkis. …. Can’t spoil it. I have the links where they can watch them in full on RU-vid on a playlist I have ready for them to watch from top to bottom like it was on the DVD as if they just pressed the play all button with their remote. ❤️

aw i bet that is so special! i want to see it after this for sure

we really appreciate it and yes him editing these things are making him a huge fan lol he’s very much enjoying this!

​@@TheOctobersReactwe can tell

Legolas is 2931 at the time of the Fellowship, according to the movie trilogy.

@@colbunkmustWhere in the films does it say that? I don't remember it.

@@JPMadden It's in the official movie guide, not the film itself.

Arwen 2901. Gandalf, Saruman, and Sauron, it's unknown, since they're Maiar and existed before the creation of Ea. The 5 wizards came to Middle Earth at about Third Age 1100, which means they lived there about 1900 years at the time of the War of the Rings. Sauron entered earlier and lived in Arda about 7000 years.

He’s also a Maiar and definitely communed with Arien who protects, envelops and guides the sun(last fruit of the golden tree Laurëlin.) I’m sure in the books somewhere it stated something along the lines of how supernatural it all was & even how it wasn’t rising in the usual place or something like that. Either in the chapter itself or his other notes to which we know is still being looked through by his family and friends to this day. ❤️

@@Makkaru112 Erhm, nah. Attacking with the sun behind you is a tactic from ancient warfare all the way through aerial combat _(Dicta Boelcke.)_

Whether you believe him or not Tolkien disagreed that LOTRs was allegorical to WWI: "I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence. I much prefer history - true or feigned- with its varied applicability to the thought and experience of readers. I think that many confuse applicability with allegory, but the one resides in the freedom of the reader, and the other in the purposed domination of the author."

we appreciate you! and yes he’s our go to for all flying creatures lol we always want him around to take them down! but that’s very cool that happened! thanks for watching 😊

@@TheOctobersReact You bet ;-)

@@TheOctobersReact he also called upon Varda who is Queen Of The Valar(And Manwë’s wife and counterpart) to guide that arrow to strike true. it shined akin to lightning or leaving a trail of starlight low key/ or something to that effect.

@@TheOctobersReact the capturing of the hobbits and taking them to Osgiliath (city of stars) never happened in the books. And the two towers are Minas Tirith and Minas Ithil which used to be the counterpart sister to Minas Tirith. Ithil being Moon and Tirith being Sun so “The Two Towers Of The Sun & Moon” is the true meaning of the title. Which ties alll the way back to the Two Trees Of Valinor. Of which the white tree of Gondor Nimloth is a descendant of Telperion (The Silver Tree/who bore the moon as its dying act after being essentially killed by Morgoth(And Ungoliant the eldrich terror who essentially Vampirized them from the stab wounds he gave them with his halberd. The Valar/Especially Yavannah had tried all she could do to keep them alive ((Another long story which I didn’t even scratch the surface of yet haha.))

that was really kind of you to say! we love doing this and it’s really a lot of fun! thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!

@@TheOctobersReact

He was never tempted. He is Aragorn level. Both he and his brother are Númenorean but if a different lineage. Especially if the faithful Númenoreans through their mother Finduilas. He’s named after an elvish princess of the same name.

what did he do in the books?

And no one tortured Gollum.

@@TheOctobersReact he understood how meaningful their task was and was strong enough to withstand the rings calling, he let them go

Once these movies hit, the NZ tourist board put up billboards all over Hollywood, with dramatic outdoor scenery saying something like: "Enjoying the Lord of the Rings? Well, just so you know, we left the set up. -Visit New Zealand!"

Mt Sunday.

Very true, glad you took the time to expand on this!

Yeah, the flashback with Boromir is the best extended scene of all time in any movie and 1000% should have been in the original cut.

I try really hard! Thank you for noticing it can be very tricky with copyright. But some of these movies are so incredible. I feel like they deserve to have nothing important missed unfortunately I still do sometimes. I’m really glad that you enjoyed the reaction. I have watched it back so many times while editing, and I have heard all of the background music and I am genuinely becoming a super fan of these movies.

but he kinda is though right? lol

Faramir is smart and "learned" He never once shows any hesitation in the books but to help Frodo and Sam. This whole inner conflict is for the movie drama only. He knows or has a strong gut feeling that the ring cannot be wielded for anything but evil. He knows that if Frodo accomplished his mission, then Gondor is also saved. It's the best outcome. And he understands that they need Gollum to lead them there. It ain't any deeper than that.

absolutely ! we could not agree more

thanks so much for that!! we love these movies! and yes so that means he can’t be full human right? idk if it told us that directly yet but we thought that’s what it coulda meant!

​@@TheOctobersReacthe is one of the Dunedain. They live about twice as long as regular mortals

oh wow. i remember hearing that but didn’t put that together! thank you

@@TheOctobersReacttheir maximum age is 500 years old.

@@Makkaru112 But in Prof Tolkien's legendarium that was only possible for Elros, Elrond Half-Elven's twin brother, who chose to be a human when given the choice of kindreds (or races) to belong to. And after that first king of Numenor the lifespans of the Numenoreans, and after the fall of Numenor, the surviving Dunedain's lifespans have become shorter and shorter over the generations. Aragorn is more than 7,000 years removed from his ancestor, Elros. (But their kinship is a large part of the reason that Elrond acted as his foster-father when Aragorn was growing up in Rivendell.) So by this time their average lifespan is roughly twice that of other men, potentially about 150 years. Aragorn is a bit of a throwback, and may live longer than that (no spoilers), but nothing close to 500 years.

But of course Gandalf knows that Gollum would at least be following them. Wormtongue was just out for his own interests. He wanted a comfortable political position for himself, a bit of power and influence over the kingdom of Rohan, and perhaps Eowyn for his wife. He had no idea that the person he was working for was trying to destroy his entire country and his people.

@@PhilBagelseven Gríma was a lot cooler in the books. Wasn’t just “bad guy”. All these characters had SO MUCH removed and left out. It’s crazy. ❤

aw thank you so much

Oddly he never wished to serve Sauron as he was always a rogue agent and The Long Defeat/marring of middle earth by Morgoth causing magic to bleed from the first version of the world of the first ainulindalë he became more and more susceptible to Mairon/Sauron who was one of the strongest of all the Maiar even at his weakest point by the third age from being vanquished twice already before this point. Maiar have a huge effect on eachother. It’s why the Voice Of Saruman has such sway and power is because of how their very songs shaped middle earth long ago.

Tolkien has some really interesting musings on this point in his letters. Some of these have been published in an edition edited by Carpenter (sometimes edited more than serves either reader or Tolkien...)

You're the best! we appreciate you so so much!

Nah she was making moves.

can’t wait for them!

10000000%

Smeagol was born in TA2430 and died in TA3019, making him 589 years old at his death, not thousands.

oh yeah!!

well worth the watch forreal!!

Exactly. Which ties in with how and why he could talk ontop of the snow. Nature itself is symbiotic with the Eldar. The Quendi. According to Tolkien, Elves could even dream while moving about, "blending living night & deep dream." When Aragorn, Gimli & Legolas are running across the Plains of Rohan pursuing the orcs who captured Merry and Pippin, Legolas never sleeps, even stands watch while his wiped out Dwarf & Human companions are literally tuckered out and even while the other two are asleep. That & out of the entire journey Legolas was both Stoic and ethereal but the one whose heart remained the lightest and kept the fellowship afloat in so many ways ❤. So it was weird how the film gave it all to Gimli! 😂❤️ They have a debate after finding the brooch dropped by Pippin..... continue running through the night (& possibly miss other important signs in the dark), or rest overnight (and let the Uruks get further away from them). In the end, they choose to rest.

@@Makkaru112 this!

wow i really love this info here! nice 😊

Love your comment but rather emphasizing his dislike for allegory and wrote forwards to his own book stating they are not allegories to the war and he tried to make sure the reader never glorifies war etc. but he did state in the same forward that in this case he can understand that allegory as far as the reader’s interpretation goes is a fair one. ❤😊

Tolkien 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 or even posted a comment 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. 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 RU-vid and I can send you a playlist to react to from top to bottom

@@Makkaru112thank you! Far too often do I see people quote Tolkien regarding allegories as a way to make it sound like he just never used them, which is downright laughable. After all, if the Shire and Isengard (and, to a lesser extent, Mordor) aren’t allegories for the unspoiled British countryside and its destruction by rampant industrialism, I’m the emperor of China. Somehow people who jumped on the “Tolkien always and forever hated allegories and would never use them” always ignore that point when I make it… But it is true that he did not want political allegories in his work, meaning that none of the evil forces in the story are meant to represent Nazis, for example.

@@jordinagel1184 The definition for allegory is fluid, I suppose, but when I think allegory I think of Narnia and the crucifixion/resurrection of Christ, or Orwell's Animal Farm, where each animal represents a historical figure in the Russian Revolution. Tolkien pulled themes from many experiences in his life, but he wasn't trying to retell anything in a 1:1 symbolic sequence of events like allegories do. What Tolkien does, I would consider allusion or metaphor, not allegory. That said, I do agree that people overstate his hatred for allegory. He simply wanted readers to be able to find their own meaning.

I remember reading that Tolkien got the idea of the dead marshes from seeing huge holes in the ground from artillery with dead bodies in that would fill with water when it rained

He also just began streaming his live readings of The Silmarillion !

wow that’s impressive

that’s very awesome too

Gandalf is the same species of being as the Balrogs/Sauron before twisted by Melkor[Morgoth]. They are all Maiar (primordial spirits). Gandalf named Olórin created by Eru’s Thought (extensions of Eru Îlluvatar himself whilst they had their own free will & individuality. He essentially got the chance to experience and study other parts of himself through this.) among the other Ainur before the Years of the Lamps roughly 9,000+ years before arriving in Middle-earth; In Valinor he was known as Olórin.(Remember though he formally existed before the world existed and his form becoming Gandalf hadn’t happened yet. He was sent to Middle-earth in human form around the year 1000 of the Third Age. So his many forms had different ages in length of existing. He’s very cool right! Could he get any cooler!? 😎❤️ Another thing is when he arrived in middle earth he was disguised as an elf & lived among them whilst they were unknowing & he became to be known as Mithrandir to the Quendi/Eldar❤️ He could have very well dwelled with the elves far earlier just do to his curiosity & simple desire to explore and be around the firstborn (TheElves) Gandalf The Grey/White Estimated at 15,000 years old (following his quote "300 lives of men, I have walked this earth"), It says that Gandalf was the wisest of the Maiar besides Melian herself. There were a lot of Maiar that were considered really great and powerful. However, there is a much longer answer. Like Sauron(former name is Mairon) & the other Istari (the order sent around the same time & of which he was appointed leader but he being who he is & a student of the Vala by the name Nienna & Lorien(Irmo). Gandalf was a Maiar, an angelic spirit created by Eru at the beginning of time and therefor one of the many Ainur who sang the world into being & Eru just helped their creation take shape and basically stated “behold YOUR creation” & basically what happens in that world goes sort of preordained as by that song eons ago so really only the ages after Dagor Dagorath will truly be an age that isn’t full of strife; sadness; and longing. Also. These lamps are what were before even the two trees. These were Giant mountains but also like light houses but housing a great power but it may have also been where two special Maia lived that helped in the creation in the sun and moon after Melkor With eldrich terror Ungoliant killed the trees, so yea “Arien” is the Maia who basically exists with the sun and her brother and or lover of sorts is the one who wanders with and guides the moon. Of which that other Maia was “Tillion” Galadriel herself not only witnessed this but as a student of Aulë and the other Valar she obviously had involvement in helping create the hallowed objects that housed the final flower of the silver tree Telperion that was the father of the moon and the mother of the sun was Laurëlin the golden tree and prior to the sun and moon they too used to wax and wane! (Just in case you look her first.)

(Here i think is better for you to read easier as people’s comments flood in. This way we won’t miss eachother by hours lol)

You’ll get it all explained in the behind the scenes documentary series. Get ready. I have the link ready for y’all to start reacting to and best all other RU-vid channels to the punch since they snoozed too much despite wanting to do it even after I became a patreon member for them lol.

Well, the distrust went way further than the hobbit

@koreancowboy42 yes, but most don't read all the lore and history of middle earth, all they know is what's in The Hobbit! They need to know about The Silmarillion and other companion/reference books that delve into all the nuances of all four books!

The wargs are described as wolves in the books, but here, they look more like hyenas, which bugged me a bit.
