cheers brother! I died when i saw it, it’s one of the funniest videos i’ve seen in the last decade. Jonkari P does amazing work! check him out: youtube.com/@JonkariP
Hobbits to Isengard was snubbed at the Noggers! There, got that out of my system. I absolutely love your reviews of Hobbit movies. Can't wait to watch this multiple times in following weeks!
Lads I just wanna say thanks for keeping me sane. I've been rehabbing an ACL tear since last March and your backlog has kept me laughing through the process the entire time. It's pretty damn funny that this video dropped on my last week before returning to work! Cheers to you all, been waiting for more Hobbit bollix forEVER!
Been rehabing an ACL tear since 2006. Got operated and had a kneecap tendon put in, still never been the same since.. docs said I'll never be a tile layer XD
thank u brother! doing the “Side B” with the adaptions and book and game stuff too is great fun. plus it gives ya more ‘value’ as thanks for watching :)
D'you know, on first watch, "ARGH, MY GLOIN!" got by far the biggest pop from me (as with a lot of the Comments section) but, after rewatching, I think my Quote of the Review goes to wildly underappreciated, "this is the softest nut we have." Completely unrelated but there _is_ a decent decaf tea out there: Yorkshire Tea. I can't tell you if it's indistinguishable from real Yorkshire Tea because I've never tried the real stuff but it's at least indistinguishable from a... perfectly nice cup of tea.
I’m not sure if anyone has commented on it yet but Stephen Colbert is a huge Tolkien super fan. Peter Jackson said Colbert knew more about the source material than their on-set Tolkien expert.
OOC calling out the terrible slapped-in love triangle as "tripe" is giving me life & strength. Every time that happens, it's at best distracting & usually just insulting.
I can't _guarantee_ that this is true, but Evangeline Lily did say that she specifically asked if she was just going to be used for a bullshit, slapped-in love triangle before she signed and was told she wouldn't be, assuming it's true, kind of makes it much worse. (I know actors traditionally get to read scripts before signing but, with the sheer scale of the production nightmare this thing was, we can only guess at how many major plot details where added while they were filming.)
Well hell, now that I know there's 98 hours of barrel river footage, I want to watch that, and then to go on a theme park ride based on barrel river from Desolation of Smaug.
I watched the hell out of the Rankin and Bass movie growing up because we had the DVD and I seriously think it's night and day between Richard Boone's portrayal of Smaug and benedict Cumberbatch's. Boone might sound like a grumpy old man, but he has such a powerful and booming voice and it totally fits the role of this ancient dragon. Cumberbatch just sounds... goofy. Like he never emotes past "I'm a slithery sneaky snake hisssss" despite being the size of a castle.
I can _totally_ see where you're coming from, particularly if you're used to the Rankin and Bass one (the voice acting in it _is_ awesome all round) and I'm honestly not sure I'm going to be able to word my defence of Cumberbatch's performance very well. All that said, you'd be surprised how much of a difference the jump from cartoon to live action makes and I just don't see how they could have made the important bit (the back-and-forth with Bilbo) work in live action with the difference in volume between the two without killing the tension if he'd had the voice of a giant man. I _definitely_ agree he could have gone bigger with, "I am fire... I am death!" but, beyond that I think both versions work very well for what they are.
2 fun facts about the '77 Hobbit for you Jay! - Just like how the Lemmiwinks song was inspired by The Greatest Adventure, the follow-up iLemmiwinks vs Wikileaks was inspired by Down, Down in Goblin town. - The voice actor for Gollum in '77 is Peter Woodthorpe, the most recurring actor to voice the character have voiced him in multiple productions across several decades.
Peter Woodthorpe’s Gollum is my favourite performance of the character hands down, he was fantastic in the BBC 1981 Radio Adaptation 😃 PS: PW also played Del Boy’s Dad in Only Fools and Horses and occasionally you can hear the Gollum voice come out 😂
Ah, a lovely way to end my week off work with a new OSW review and the follow up to my favourite movie review! EDIT: Man, I think this one was even better than the previous one and that one I loved. A lot of funny moments throughout especially when the GOW QTE prompts popped up during the Smaug chase scene. I guess V1 is going to be playing The Hobbit game that came out during the PS2/Xbox/GC era for The Battle of the Five Armies review next year then. I think I am looking forward to non-wrestling reviews more so than wrestling ones at the moment because I just love these deep dives and the various bits and bobs that it is provided outside of just the film or video game itself. I know they are time consuming to work on I reckon for yourself and all who contribute but many people like myself appreciate the work and are easily rewatchable and enjoyable. I look forward to The Battle of the Five Armies Deep Dive in 2024.
WHO TOLD YO- i mean...maybe! Hobbit PS2 is the first choice but it looks competent, gotta see if i can find some bollocks instead :D Appreciate the kind words mate, it's really flattering to hear you re-watch 'em. YOU are the best boy today :)
This is LITERALLY the only way I will re-visit this film. I want to hang a sign on my door that says: "I'm not watching this because I am a fan" to prevent an possible inquries from actual fans. Thanks OOC!
@@OSW so this is what I get for saying "I'll probably never watch those movies again". I'm just grateful the three of you make me laugh so much that I really don't mind seeing the last part of a 9-hour movie that should have only been 2.5 hours long. Again.
Have never watched any of the Hobbit films, nor have i shown any interest but I will literally watch you three review anything! From 80’s WWF to modern day AEW, video game epics to awful comics or Hollywood blockbusters to low budget porn, you never fail to entertain you divvy knackers. ❤
I can’t imagine how long this took to put together, THANK YOU!! You guys fucking rule, appreciate being able to laugh and forget the world for a couple hours and I’m sure I’m not the only one ❤
Great video as always boys. One of my major gripes when I first saw it was I thought the guy playing bard looked too much like Orlando bloom, so I spent most of the movie going back and forth on whether he was playing two parts or not.
He's somehow manages to be the cheap, knock-off Orlando Bloom, too. Bloom was at least genuinely excellent in Kingdom of Heaven, particularly considering the _staggering_ star power he was acting off, but I've seen that other guy in a weird number of movies and he's got... nothing to him. The only movie I've ever enjoyed his performance in was the live action Beauty and the Beast and that was probably only grading on a curve because, Jesus, was there very little else I liked about that movie.
1:39:40 It’s right here you can see why V1’s comedic timing is so damn perfect. That second fanfare for the Jackson 5 cartoon made me laugh so damn hard. Cheers to you V1
This might just be my own personal taste (and nostalgia) but I love "The Hobbit" 1977. I grew up with it and have seen it a dozen or so times. I wish the Lord of the Rings had been done entirely in the same style so there could be a complete presentation of the material. The art style (for me) is just such classic fantasy, with a storybook feel. I love it.
Really marked out to the Trine reference. I've never really heard it discussed anywhere since I played it with my flatmates when it first came out but, man, it was a great wee game. Surprisingly intense and difficult in the endgame, too.
thank u brother! I was going to cut about 7 mins of this out to be a tighter video but thought hey, if you’re with us for 2 hours you’re with us for 2h7! appreciate ya being with us all these years brother!
Another great episode, I come to OSW for the Wrestling bollocks and stay for the movie/video game talks. I really enjoy the retrospective and the fact you go into making of and alternate versions. Well Done lads!
33:30 In the early days of my original D&D campaign, we'd have made off with every one of those bottles and had half of us down us before we got to Laketown. In the name of upholding kayfabe, obviously, since it's much easier for an inexperienced player to lose themselves in the fun of things if they're hammered and it's easier to explain how your super-wise Cleric keeps shoot forgetting where he put his keys if he's drunk in kayfabe as well.
Ive re watched this twice already and I have to say. V1 was on top form this video. Really well timed jokes. Both Hobbit videos have been class. Cant wait for the trilogy.
Richard Luck put me onto you good fellas. Speaking of lots of local extras applying for a role; I was living in Sydney back in 2003 and auditioned for Revenge of the Sith. Needless to say, I didn’t have the last laugh.
1:05:35 They gave him a bit of wood to the face. 1:44:04 Gollum looks like Little Foot with human ears. I will always remember my friend Jeff standing up and screaming "What the fuck!?" at the cut to black. Then angrily stomped out of our spot in the middle of the row loudly grumbling as the opening weekend crowd had a big laugh. Probably bigger than any laugh in the movie.
Why does Smaug even keep so much gold? Not like he can buy anything with it. Bilbo shoulda been like "Gimme a five percent cut and I'll go buy cool stuff for you, totally honest not gonna just run away with your stuff."
1:43:35 Go Lemmiwinks! Stop Wikileaks! Run, run, the battle's on! Wikileaks and Lemmiwinks. Run, run, the battle's on! Go Lemmiwinks! Stop Wikileaks! Missed opportunity there Jay.
I have an actual RCA SelectaVision Video Disc version of the 1977 Hobbit animated film. It's one of my prized possessions for two reasons. 1) the obvious 2) one of my best friends found it on a moving job. We used to work for a moving company. He died in August. I love this thing. I should upload a video of it.
thank u for sharing that with us brother, and i’m sorry to hear about your friend. i’ve never heard of that version of the film let alone seen it, would love to have a gander! Lemme know if u make a vid or even send me a pic on twitter! slainte brah :)
So, I uploaded a video of the video disc and me showing it off and talking about it. I don't actually have any means of watching it lol. The video disc players from the 80s are like 200 bones on ebay. Yeah nah lol
Can't speak for The Hobbit, but it's not uncommon to have one or more blacksmiths on set for these kinds of movies. I worked briefly on Mulan (Bollocks, but also filmed in New Zealand) and they had a whole team of blacksmiths on location actively working alongside filming for alterations and changes.
@@OSW The sets were super impressive. Totally immersive full 3D reconstructions of ancient Chinese buildings. Only thing that broke... or perhaps enhanced the magic was the strong smell of weed coming from the area behind it where security and the transport departments chilled.
I love that Tolkien closed his own plothole before the end of the first book: at the Council of Elrond, someone says that Tom Bombadil could clearly handle the ring without being corrupted by it and the minions of Sauron can't get anywhere near him. But Gandalf points out that because he neither understands what the Ring is nor cares about what it's for, he'd eventually just lose it.
Just finished watching this and the first Hobbit movie review once again, such fun fucking videos, holy shit. I really hope you guys do the 3rd movie this year or early next year. As someone who hasn't watched any of them and still has no desire to, these reviews were great fun to watch.
Thanks brother! These were a gigantic projects, loved putting these together. I asked OOC to do #3 last year after this came out, and he said noooo it's far too soon. But I hope we do in the next off-season! 🧙♂️
i saw the first hobbit in the high frame rate 3d, and it was the most engrossing 3d experience i've had. but i can understand why people didn't like it, especially if it makes production more difficult / expensive.
Man, that's an _awesome_ idea. Warner Brothers even have the international distribution rights for Mad Max so they _might_ be able to make it happen even though WB own a patent on the system.
I did grow up with the animated Hobbit film, and it definitely is the definitive version to me. While definitely imperfect, I feel that it properly captured the tone of the book. A scary and exciting adventure, but one for kids. Not too safe, but not too horrific. Not pretentious or bloated like the film version. And the voices, dear god. John Huston could read a dictionary and I'd listen. Smaug's voice was also incredible, and the acting from Bean and others was on point. Love it.
@@OSW Never thought I'd be speaking directly to you lads! I'm a bit honored to be honest. :) I never catch these in time to do a What Bar but I'll find a way to hear my name on one of your shows SOME day! There are some good quotes, the ones my friends and I would say to each other back in the 80s and 90s was the abbreviated little "sudden truce" speech when the armies come together. You know, the one where these characters all show up with the explicit intent to kill each other but then IMMEDIATELY become BFFs when Gandalf says that there's a greater threat? "Oh great elf king, my truest friend and ally"! Fucking serious bro? "But of course! O noble king under the mountain, your people are like brothers unto mine". Double face turn!
Yeah! It’s amazing how concise and coherent it is, like it hits all the beats in a timely fashion, without feeling hurried. I’d never seen it before but the characterisation and voice acting was shockingly good (then u hear they morphed into Studio Ghibli!)
@@OSW funny enough, with the animated version I would have liked to have an "extended edition" with maybe 5 extra minutes to add some more connecting tissue to the story, like right at the end Gandalf just casually mentions that six Dwarfs died and I'm like, wait what, can I get a little more on that?
The Roshambo reference popped me hard, not standing for the Ed Sheeran slander though, that song bangs harder than any of the Enya shite we got in the original films
That truly was… “Hobbit 2 Desolation of Smaug (2013) EXTENDED EDITION | OSW Deep Dive!” 😛 Can of Coke lads. Always love it when you guys talk Tolkien…TALKien? Anyway. So much to pick out from this that I loved. Drunk Frodo, “Ah my Gloin”, the ridiculous double entendres in the dragon game at the end, “heartburn”...I could go on! Top work as always!
I appreciate the south-out!
Ah mate rock on! I've been dying to find a way to shoe-horn ya into the show and hopefully get ya some new followers. Love your work. Sláinte!
‘Who has held the ring the longest?’
I honestly thought the answer was gonna be Hulk Hogan.
Ah, but he gave it to Abyss
"AAH, MY GLOIN!", had me in tears 🤣🤣

What a coincidence, I had pig loin for dinner last night.
"The ring is huge and fits over his whole hand" and just like that we're back into Sunny Side Up

Cant wait for part 3, WITH THE REAL BILLY CONNOLLY 🤣
OOC calling out the terrible slapped-in love triangle as "tripe" is giving me life & strength. Every time that happens, it's at best distracting & usually just insulting.

THEHOBBITS THEHOBBITS THEHOBBITS THEHOBBITS
I watched the hell out of the Rankin and Bass movie growing up because we had the DVD and I seriously think it's night and day between Richard Boone's portrayal of Smaug and benedict Cumberbatch's.
Boone might sound like a grumpy old man, but he has such a powerful and booming voice and it totally fits the role of this ancient dragon.
Cumberbatch just sounds... goofy. Like he never emotes past "I'm a slithery sneaky snake hisssss" despite being the size of a castle.

I should upload a video of it.
I’m so sorry about your friend brah. Hope you are doing OK
thank u for sharing that with us brother, and i’m sorry to hear about your friend. i’ve never heard of that version of the film let alone seen it, would love to have a gander! Lemme know if u make a vid or even send me a pic on twitter! slainte brah :)
@@OSW I'll do one of the two soon! Thanks for the reply!
@@MsCholmondley-Warner thanks! I appreciate that!
So, I uploaded a video of the video disc and me showing it off and talking about it. I don't actually have any means of watching it lol. The video disc players from the 80s are like 200 bones on ebay. Yeah nah lol
Thank you lads!! Very interested in OOC's take on the Rings of Power TV series, even if it's just a small segment!
cheers brother! maybe before Season 2 comes out, or might combine them together; would love to hear OOC’s take on it!
Can't speak for The Hobbit, but it's not uncommon to have one or more blacksmiths on set for these kinds of movies. I worked briefly on Mulan (Bollocks, but also filmed in New Zealand) and they had a whole team of blacksmiths on location actively working alongside filming for alterations and changes.
that’s very cool! Any fun stories from working on mulan?
@@OSW The sets were super impressive. Totally immersive full 3D reconstructions of ancient Chinese buildings. Only thing that broke... or perhaps enhanced the magic was the strong smell of weed coming from the area behind it where security and the transport departments chilled.
I love that Tolkien closed his own plothole before the end of the first book: at the Council of Elrond, someone says that Tom Bombadil could clearly handle the ring without being corrupted by it and the minions of Sauron can't get anywhere near him. But Gandalf points out that because he neither understands what the Ring is nor cares about what it's for, he'd eventually just lose it.
Nearly made it a full video without PAUL!!!. You'll get em next time lads
I’m convinced it can’t be done. MAYBE if we actually covered million dollar mania :D
"Tri....I can't feel my legs, Tri!"
Just finished watching this and the first Hobbit movie review once again, such fun fucking videos, holy shit. I really hope you guys do the 3rd movie this year or early next year. As someone who hasn't watched any of them and still has no desire to, these reviews were great fun to watch.
Thanks brother! These were a gigantic projects, loved putting these together. I asked OOC to do #3 last year after this came out, and he said noooo it's far too soon. But I hope we do in the next off-season! 🧙♂️
@@OSW The review will arrive precisely when it means to.
"TRY"ne made me spit some soda I was drinking out. Another great episode added to an immaculate catalog. Cheers!
i saw the first hobbit in the high frame rate 3d, and it was the most engrossing 3d experience i've had. but i can understand why people didn't like it, especially if it makes production more difficult / expensive.
The meta humor of your team and the references, humor and accents are very infectious 😂
Jay's pronunciation of German and French is almost as good as his Finnish.
Lee Pace is the best in anything he's in. He's the reason i slogged through these 3 movies.
Fuck ya lads... I can't unhear it now. OOC sounds like a goose 🦆 when he laughs. He can now be referred to as Mr. Goosey
I wish they made a Mad Max sequel that used the Nemesis system or enemies. There could be such variety and fun.
Man, that's an _awesome_ idea. Warner Brothers even have the international distribution rights for Mad Max so they _might_ be able to make it happen even though WB own a patent on the system.
That's a mighty fine description box you have there lads
Now all we need is an ooc review of the lotr trilogy! Make it happen jay
Amazing video as always boys! Thank you for always proving amazing content to get us through these dark times.
Holy carp! You spoil us! Thank you for this massive feast!
Unless I missed it, I didn’t see the Tag Titles in Smaug’s cave, What a Pittance!
I did grow up with the animated Hobbit film, and it definitely is the definitive version to me. While definitely imperfect, I feel that it properly captured the tone of the book. A scary and exciting adventure, but one for kids. Not too safe, but not too horrific. Not pretentious or bloated like the film version. And the voices, dear god. John Huston could read a dictionary and I'd listen. Smaug's voice was also incredible, and the acting from Bean and others was on point. Love it.
that's lovely to hear. thanks for sharing! you can feel the warmth and cosy-ness of the animation. Any favourite quotes from it?
@@OSW Never thought I'd be speaking directly to you lads! I'm a bit honored to be honest. :) I never catch these in time to do a What Bar but I'll find a way to hear my name on one of your shows SOME day!
There are some good quotes, the ones my friends and I would say to each other back in the 80s and 90s was the abbreviated little "sudden truce" speech when the armies come together. You know, the one where these characters all show up with the explicit intent to kill each other but then IMMEDIATELY become BFFs when Gandalf says that there's a greater threat? "Oh great elf king, my truest friend and ally"! Fucking serious bro? "But of course! O noble king under the mountain, your people are like brothers unto mine". Double face turn!
Weekend doesn't get better than when a new OSW drops. I mean, folks, where's the lie?
Thorin has been called…a locker-room sellout!
This was so good to watch from start to finish. 😁 Thankyou for the uploads fellas, Great job.!!! 😊👍
cheers brother! Glad it popped ya matey. Lembas bread all round :)
It is interesting to watch the '77 animated Hobbit after watching all 3 of these movies, they just fly through that story.
Yeah! It’s amazing how concise and coherent it is, like it hits all the beats in a timely fashion, without feeling hurried. I’d never seen it before but the characterisation and voice acting was shockingly good (then u hear they morphed into Studio Ghibli!)
@@OSW funny enough, with the animated version I would have liked to have an "extended edition" with maybe 5 extra minutes to add some more connecting tissue to the story, like right at the end Gandalf just casually mentions that six Dwarfs died and I'm like, wait what, can I get a little more on that?
I know you guys want to be more positive in your reviews but you 3 giving out are always my favorite parts.
LOL! Please review the barrel riding and sexy dwarf scenes so i can see!

Man "Tom Bombadil" is my Boy:
Every Person who read the Book said "Yeah, we cut him"...and they do!
He’s the LOTR version of the Brooklyn Brawler! 😃
Love these lads. Like you're sitting chatting with your mates.
If I had any.
You sound like a nice chap. If I'm ever in your hometown I'll buy ya a pint!
@@OSW ha ha. Top man.
Positive of Lake Town sucking: makes the first couple minutes of Smaug destroying it in the next movie Godzilla levels of satisfying.
The Roshambo reference popped me hard, not standing for the Ed Sheeran slander though, that song bangs harder than any of the Enya shite we got in the original films
That truly was… “Hobbit 2 Desolation of Smaug (2013) EXTENDED EDITION | OSW Deep Dive!” 😛
Can of Coke lads. Always love it when you guys talk Tolkien…TALKien? Anyway. So much to pick out from this that I loved. Drunk Frodo, “Ah my Gloin”, the ridiculous double entendres in the dragon game at the end, “heartburn”...I could go on! Top work as always!
