I love how Saruman jumps straight into the "many colors" thing without any of the dialogue building up to it. The novel gave his cloak context. Here it's just "I'm eeeevil- and I'm FABULOUS!"
It was red and yellow and green and brown And scarlet and black and ochre and peach And ruby and olive and violet and fawn And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve And cream and crimson and silver and rose And azure and lemon and russet and grey And purple and white and pink and orange And red and yellow and green and brown and blue.
I love how the wise Gandalf did not immediately see anything suspicious in Saruman living in a tower full of spikes and demonic architecture in the middle of a hellish landascape, and acting like a mustache-twirling villain dressed in red when he's supposed to be Saruman the White. The novel and also Peter Jackson's movie surely handled better the setup for his "heel turn", giving the feeling that something was a bit off but not so plain to see until Gandalf was already in the middle of the conversation inside Orthanc.
Especially since in Jackson’s adaptation, Isengard looks like a pleasant place. The trees are all thriving and the place looks like a place a powerful, prideful, yet good wizard would live in. All that was missing in this scene was a sign that said “Turn back here.”
Fundamentally, Gandalf and Saruman are two friends. But two friends who haven't seen each other for a long time. They evolved their separate way, particularly Sarumane evolved in a way that is close to psychopathy. Which is a pity because he was probably very skilful and helpful before.
I love how the rotoscoped actors couldn't resist doing the old "milking the invisible cow" routine, and I love even more that someone took the time to animate those individual hand gestures.

Legend_Warp -- This is better than the PJ movies, you have no idea what it was like growing up watching this version. Everything is so accessible these days that people are too quick to judge entertainment.
I was young when I first read the books so my reading comprehension was a bit lacking. I literally didn't realize Sauron and Saruman were different characters until they locked Saruman in the tower. I thought to myself, "wait, the bad guy is locked up, shouldn't the story be over now?" 😂

@@josephpapisan9491 Apparently that's an error in production. They changed Saruman's name in post to Aruman, to keep him from being confused with Sauron, but they didn't change all the dialogue, so half the time they still say the S, lol.
In the novel, Sauruman the White reveals himself after his treachery as Sauruman of Many Colors. He chooses "Many Colors" because he believes it symbolizes what white light can be broken down in to, and thus his evolution from White to all colors represents his own evolution into a higher power. But Gandalf explains later that it signifies that Sauruman has "left the path of wisdom."
This is a hilarious comment, not least because in the Unfinished Tales, there is a scene where Gandalf smokes pipeweed during a White Council meeting and Saruman basically tells him to put away the fire toys as there is a serious matter in hand :-)
I love how Gandalf is both angry and horrified at Saruman's disinterest, later turning into righteous defiance when he found Saruman had chosen to side with Sauron, saying “Neither of you will have it!".
I. Thorberg That's what I thought when I first watched lotr,back when it was released but looking at his younger pictures that's when I realized its his aging!lol.

Say what you want about this movie but the visuals are absolutely beautiful, almost any moment you pause at can be a piece of art in and of itself or.... a legendary meme.
He's saying Peter Jacksons version was a totally hammed up, Sam and Frodo are gay, there are 228 invented crying scenes, Boromir is played by Sharpes Rifles, Legolas enjoys skiing down mammoth trunks and none of it actually happened like that! XD@@dogsarentdangerous1195
Skeletor and Saruman must’ve had the same real estate agent, when looking for houses. Unfortunately, though, neither of them had the jacuzzi’s and wrap around decks that they wanted. Damn you House Hunters International! DAMN YOU TO HELL!
The "Saruman of Many Colors!" bit will never cease to make me laugh. I remember watching this movie the first time and kind of getting bored, and then this happened and it woke me the hell up because I was laughing so hard.
Thats due to most of it being rotoscoped which Ralph Bakshi made a lot of use of in all his films. He was always critisized for it since it's only partly animated. Its also why some scenes look wrong. When the hobbits run into the black riders they are animated so they look like colorforms stuck over the image and lacks depth perception.
its the ironry ofit.:) especially since saruman was supposed to be known for the power of his voice. I think Christopher lee was perfect.:) another ironic voice thing was in pj's lotr aragorns voice gets very hig pitiched and squecky at the council, which always made me and my sister laugh. and then legolas an elf his voice gets all deep sounding in ttt when he says theyre taking the hobbit to isengard, we laughed at that one too.:)
The voices in this animation are actually incredibly good. Especially Aragon. Sarumans voice in the animation is much more seducing, instead of commanding.
I like the Peter Jackson films more but I like how this version references that Sauremon was more concerned with using the ring himself as apposed to aiding Sauron
This is over half a decade belated, but a comic was made, based on the Bakshi material ( Luis Bermejo, 1979 ). Where Gandalf is directed to Saruman by the Orc guards outside of Orthanc. Like business as usual. Quite surreal. The artwork was great though.
I love how Saruman's epic introduction is him standing with his back turned and looking like a confused mall Santa.
I guess at this time epic introductions was ridiculed and regarded as something childish.

Cause he's bloods.
His white robe is in the wash.
I AM SARUMAN OF MANY COLORSSSSS
I AM SO FABULOUS!!!!!!
Work it, Saruman!
My coat of many colors that my mama made for me.
DonaldJ.Saruman...
SARUMAN THE FABULOUS!
He should fight Smug Travolta on the disco fields, and who dance better gets the ring.
I love how they basically are doing sign language without doing sign language the entire time.

1. The Dark Lord

I would genuinely like to thank everyone in this comment session. Your observations of this beautiful scene made me laugh as I haven't done in years.
Wow, you're easily entertained
@@seethrough_treeshrew It's f**king funny, let's get it right. 😂👏🤔🎬
we're blessed that you laughed. thanks for letting us know
Yes, rotoscoping is kinda cringe, but these movies do have a certain charm to them, it would certainly be a shame if they disappeared 😊
Really? It made me do the opposite. I was able to enjoy the scene unironically and as intended by the creators.
2:01 “Saruman, stop messing around with your electric eel, this is serious!”
This is a hilarious comment, not least because in the Unfinished Tales, there is a scene where Gandalf smokes pipeweed during a White Council meeting and Saruman basically tells him to put away the fire toys as there is a serious matter in hand :-)
@Alexander Petrov Don't make me picture him with a smartphone
*George Takei voice* Ohhhh myyyy…..
I love how Gandalf is both angry and horrified at Saruman's disinterest, later turning into righteous defiance when he found Saruman had chosen to side with Sauron, saying “Neither of you will have it!".
"don't bother me Gandalf , I have presents to deliver"
Saruman looks like an old Asian man in a red robe who has also inhaled several helium balloons lol
+RGB Skull Lol I thought he looks Asian in the movie as well...Christopher lee looks a bit Asian just by looking at his eyes!
I. Thorberg That's what I thought when I first watched lotr,back when it was released but looking at his younger pictures that's when I realized its his aging!lol.
I'm interested in your icon. Which spectrum do you represent?
@@venusisland1546 not really
I thought the same thing. I was thinking that maybe I was the only one who noticed he looks Asian. Some ppl would've flipped out if they made him Asian in the films.
0:23 woah woah easy there Gandalf, no need to assert your dominance with that swag walk there.
Following it up with a Nazi salute was certainly a decision
And he follows it up with the Roman salute 😂
“AroOoOman! Sarooman!” Gandalf yelled calmly.
i like how when saruman brings out his staff an 80s music video commences
impressive for a movie from the 70s
Saruman: Nothing men, or elves, or wizards can do will avail against it.
Hobbits: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
I just imagined Pip and Merry dressed in 1980s hip hop outfits, doing the Ninja Rap from TMNT: Secret of the Ooze.
IhavecomeforyouraidSarumantheWhiteintroubledTimesThenineareabroaddarknessapproachestheblackRiders!
Yo Gandalf Chill, at least say Hello, How are you. I didn´t even have Time to put my white Robes on, those are my red nighties.
A thousand pardons, Saruman. I fear I am newly partook of some Longbottom Leaf, and it is hella dank.
Probably why Saruman locked Gandalf up in the tower..
roflmao
“SARUMAN! ARUMAN! SARUMAAAAN!”
That’s actually audio of the director debating what to call him.
''You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy Sauron, not join him! Bring balance to the Middle-earth, not leave it in darkness! You were my brother, Saruman! I loved you!''
This actually works and is right on so many levels.😂
However, having the high ground at the tower of Orthanc does not save Saruman.
I hate you.
Heheheheh
"The Middle-Earth" lmao
The movie: "Lord of the Rings"
TH-cam: *Yeah, this is definitely Princess Swan*
Dude it's still suggesting Princess Swan to me too!
Miss Swan: "He look...like a man!"
@@Grillo-j9g Google was too cheap to afford a top-shelf A.I. for identifying movies and TV shows, apparently
Saruman looks like santa clause XD
Yeah now that I think of it he does
Lol i didn't know santa lost weight XD
He's evil Santa.
Well, that look Gandalf and Saruman and Santa are all based on the god Odin "wanderer" look.
Rapter Jezus an Asian one at that
So sad that this cartoon was never finished. It was so good.
The fact that it's rotoscoped gives it such an uncanny feeling
Saruman frequently inhales helium.
And turns into the Mandarin who is also Father Christmas… :D
***** Why? I still loved this film, even with the mild silliness. It's fine to love something, and not be too defensive when people make fun of it. Right? :3
And HE scolds Gandalf for smoking the weed of the hobbits
Pár pařmenů
@@KonniWynn Like...weeeeeeeed, man!
Boy: Mom can we watch Lord of the Rings?
Mom: we have Lord of the Rings at home.
Lord of the Rings at home:
@Kristen Faith overrated comment, actually. Hate these overused memes
major oof
What are you talking about? This is the Lord of the Rings I have at home.
Ah yes, the comment that gets added to every single clip from this movie or the 1977 Hobbit movie.
Yonder Bagel I was going to say I’ve seen this before haha
Say what you want about this movie but the visuals are absolutely beautiful, almost any moment you pause at can be a piece of art in and of itself or.... a legendary meme.
The animation is a bit iffy but it is VERY faithful to the books!
@@dogsarentdangerous1195 No I'm saying the ANIMATION is a bit iffy
He's saying Peter Jacksons version was a totally hammed up, Sam and Frodo are gay, there are 228 invented crying scenes, Boromir is played by Sharpes Rifles, Legolas enjoys skiing down mammoth trunks and none of it actually happened like that! XD@@dogsarentdangerous1195
1:30 Gandalf legit looks like he’s about to punch Saruman.
Gandalf: "Neither of you will have it"
Also Gandalf: "If you stop me here, Sauron will get the ring!"
Why is Saruman living in Bowsers castle.
Right?
looks more like ganondorf's castle
@@ethand1004 Nintendo villain the same.
Skeletor and Saruman must’ve had the same real estate agent, when looking for houses. Unfortunately, though, neither of them had the jacuzzi’s and wrap around decks that they wanted.
Damn you House Hunters International! DAMN YOU TO HELL!
"We can deal with Sauron ourselves. You," gestures to himself "and I" points at Gandalf.
The "Saruman of Many Colors!" bit will never cease to make me laugh. I remember watching this movie the first time and kind of getting bored, and then this happened and it woke me the hell up because I was laughing so hard.
1:18
“Are you saying we should join with Mordor - with *him?”*
“Actually Gandalf it’s in the other direction.”
As funky as it is, the animation is actually really great and intricate. The amount of movement is damn impressive.
Thats due to most of it being rotoscoped which Ralph Bakshi made a lot of use of in all his films. He was always critisized for it since it's only partly animated. Its also why some scenes look wrong. When the hobbits run into the black riders they are animated so they look like colorforms stuck over the image and lacks depth perception.
I know I must sound ancient, but I miss animations like this. The skill of giving the characters weight in their steps. Amazing to watch.
I love the depiction of magic. 3d effects in a 2D world. It really show it’s something else.
i love the walking animation, cracks me up every time. also saruman claus
Hmm I was expecting Sarumans voice to be deeper (after hearing Christopher Lee of course).
its the ironry ofit.:) especially since saruman was supposed to be known for the power of his voice. I think Christopher lee was perfect.:) another ironic voice thing was in pj's lotr aragorns voice gets very hig pitiched and squecky at the council, which always made me and my sister laugh. and then legolas an elf his voice gets all deep sounding in ttt when he says theyre taking the hobbit to isengard, we laughed at that one too.:)
Late to the game you were. I bootlegged this on vhs from a rental as a kid in the 90s..
The voices in this animation are actually incredibly good. Especially Aragon. Sarumans voice in the animation is much more seducing, instead of commanding.
@@cuchulain55 Aragons voice was horrible and cringeworthy to me. No power, not hardened.
Um wierd
0:23 POV: you are 5 years old and your grandma sees that you've been playing in the mud again.
I wonder if it occurred to the producers that making him Red made him look exactly like Santa Claus
0:20 me entering my parents room at 3AM wanting to tell them I shit my pants.
lol
🤣
Laughed so hard nearly shit mine. 😂🤣😭👏
According to the auto generated captions, Saruman is demanding that Gandalf tell him WHERE THE RAIN MAY BE FOUL.
Helen
If the giant evil tower in the literal hellscape didn’t hint to you that Saruman was evil, those fingernails definitely should have
I like the Peter Jackson films more but I like how this version references that Sauremon was more concerned with using the ring himself as apposed to aiding Sauron
Really? I couldn't tell, I was too distracted by the trippy lights and the drunk voice acting.
Real films integrated with artists use of paint; Rotoscoping. John Hurt as Aragorn. ( r.i.p.)
As much as I remember in PJ's version too, Saruman suggested to use the ring.
This version by Ralph Bakshi is more faithful to Tolkien than Peter Jackson's films.
Eric Sierra-Franco in little things. Jackson’s films are more accurate in the overall story
I love Gandalf’s hand gestures throughout this movie
Watching this in the cinema must have been a trip
0:34 Saruman’s like “Don’t you come in here and zippity dippity me wit yo fingaz!”
0:22 when you step on saurumans lego at the bottom of the stairs
why is his staff the size of a damn log?
i was asking myself the same question... why... SARUMAN THE MIGHTY LOGHOLDER
p sure its a massive wizard dildo mate
Hahaheheh
Friedrich Nietzsche genetics
Compensating.
Was the entire fucking tower being covered in the most evil looking red glow not a giveaway that this wasn't going to go well?
No lightning on the tower though, should be safe ^^
This is over half a decade belated, but a comic was made, based on the Bakshi material ( Luis Bermejo, 1979 ). Where Gandalf is directed to Saruman by the Orc guards outside of Orthanc. Like business as usual. Quite surreal. The artwork was great though.
The voice actors are incredible so rare for animated films love the old aesthetic miss these types of animations and old school anime
