Thanks for watching the extended edition 😄
Fuck the extended edition.
Welcome to the Lord of the Rings fandom. A word of warning: once you start, there’s no going back!!
To the best of my knowledge, Bilbo was so loved by hobbiton because after his adventure and bringing back huge piles of gold, he turned into the un-scrooge of hobbiton.
"What did you hear? .... Here, take this parachute. You just volunteered for the operation."
Bilbo found the Ring about 60 years before the Long Awaited Party and his leaving the Ring to Frodo. Then 17 years pass before Frodo sets off.
My favorite subtle thing in the whole series with the characterization of the ring is that IT DOESNT BOUNCE when it doesn't wish to.
I love seeing people get introduced to this story for the first time :') Hope you enjoy it!
Gandalf did not 'Know' for certain that the Ring was the One Ring until the Fire revealed the Lettering. That was the final Proof: before that he had only a growing suspicion. The written description you see Gandalf reading earlier was a copy of that writing
The version is extended. My subscription is expected.
Bilbo Walking Song: “Roads go ever ever on, Over rock and under tree, By caves where never sun has shone, By streams that never find the sea; Over snow by winter sown,
And through the merry flowers of June,Over grass and over stone,
And under mountains in the moon.
Roads go ever ever on
Under cloud and under star,
Yet feet that wandering have gone
Turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the halls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they long have known”
The original version of the song is recited by Bilbo in the last chapter of The Hobbit, at the end of his journey back to the Shire. Coming to the top of a rise he sees his home in the distance, and stops and essentially sings what I shared above!
There are three versions of this walking song in The Lord of the Rings.
The first is sung by Bilbo when he leaves the Shire and is setting off to visit Rivendell:
“The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.”
The second version is identical except for changing the word "eager" to "weary" in the fifth line. It is spoken aloud, slowly, by Frodo, as he and his companions pause on their way to Crickhollow, looking beyond to lands that some of them have never seen before.
The third version is spoken by Bilbo in Rivendell after the hobbits have returned from their journey. Bilbo is now an old, sleepy hobbit, who murmurs the verse and then falls asleep.
“The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.”
1977: The Hobbit (1977 film): Sections of the poem are sung during the trip through Mirkwood. It appears on the soundtrack titled "Roads".
1980: The Return of the King (1980 film):
A song inspired by the poem is sung at the end of the film called "Roads Go Ever, Ever On".
1981: The Lord of the Rings (1981 radio series):
Bilbo sings the song as he leaves Bag End. It is sung by John Le Mesurier to a tune by Stephen Oliver.
1997: An Evening in Rivendell:
The Tolkien Ensemble adapted an original melody to the song, composed by Caspar Reiff.
2001: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring:
Parts of the song are sung by Gandalf in his first appearance, and also by Bilbo as he leaves Bag End.
2006: The Lord of the Rings Musical:
The poem is the basis of the song "The Road Goes On" sung by Sam, Frodo, Merry, and Pippin in the first act.
2014: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies:
Lines of the poem partially make up the lyrics of The Last Goodbye, performed by Billy Boyd(Pippin) for the credits of the film.
This is just stuff to know when you see the next films. Maybe seeing this will spark something you read here or in other people’s comments via future reactions to the other 2 films as well as the 3 The Hobbit movies!
The Account of Isildur describes the magical lettering on the ring as “a secret, now, that only Fire can tell”, not “five can tell”. It seemed to cause you some confusion.
She can turn on the subtitles option. ❤😂
The movies are masterpieces but they do Isildur some unintentional injustice. In book he NEVER succumbs to the ring, he instead spends his time being a fair ruler who practically gave power away to the people INSTEAD of being power hungry. He comes to realize that he is not powerful enough to truly bend the ring to his will. That it will eventually overcome him. Isildur resolves to give the ring to Elrond but is killed on the way to Rivendel. It's a tragic story of a man that tries to right his wrong but ultimately fails.
In the books isildur literally repented and was about to bring the ring to Rivendell and apologize as he recognized it was beyond him even for a great numenorean connected to the faithful line of the mighty Elendil
I preface the prologue & war, other depictions I LOVE, captured the themes WELL, the vibe of the whole trilogy! The significance of the duel between Elendil & Sauron was Nerffed; (He wasn’t some random old bloke in armour getting smacked around) This man was MIGHTY and gleaming with power which you’ll find out in the great videos you’ll soon react to with joy!
* He and Gil-Galad; last true Elven King battled Sauron and slayed Sauron’s physical body and both died in the process. GilGalad was held high by the face for all free peoples to see as he then incinerated his bodily form to a crisp of ash! Isildur was part of the fight too but not as prominently and he just comes up to the body to cut the ring finger off and…. So one example is how easily Sauron is killed in the intro.
* • He's set up as this super powered badass, but all you have to do is cut off his finger? That's not how it went down in the book, where the greatest man-king and the greatest elven-king had to double-team Sauron to strike down his body, but were killed in the effort (Isildur then cuts the ring from the corpse).
Especially for elves the title of king has many meanings & by the Third Age there isn’t a population large enough to even attempt to such a thing as creating a unified kingdom, which would put a target on their backs, let alone many of them are beyond all of that anyway as it’s seen as doing more harm than anything good.
* They also seen what happened when the elves fell upon the swords of their own hubris and passion no matter if it was for the right reasons some of the time. That it always ended up in some sort of tragedy which sometimes even damaged the earth itself.
They had long known about what’s called the Long Defeat as ever since Morgoth’s marring of the land itself; pouring his remnants into it that caused the “magic” to slowly drain away from the land itself, which is sad because for ages several clans of elves were born there. even the greatest ancestors were “born” in middle earth awakening to the stars !
Many of who are left have accepted the next phase of their life which is to become councillors, healers and loremasters to those with the heart to listen and the desire to learn. But above all the guardians and custodians of several things and the world itself for as long as they can remain!❤ The elves “exist” as long as the world does. And Tolkien made it obvious in many ways that it’s our world as he restored Anglo Saxon culture/Mythologies and folklore, and their languages too alongside Irish, Welsh and Finnish mythologies too. Especially Norwegian(of which I am)
This is what Amazon (the show that shall not be named) didn’t deliver either [[AKA the actual story which inspired everything we love into existence with games and movies and books and so forth. Skyrim, elder scrolls, oblivion, Diablo, and world of Warcraft and D&D. And Game Of Thrones was hugely inspired by Tolkien… yet as the godfather of everything and the heart of what caused many peoples lives to be saved cannot get the justice it deserves for adaptations?
People literally conquered cancer because of the books and the trilogy, the books were read to their children for years. All 25 of them. The man was a hugely respected scholar and professor in the world. Translated ancient artifacts and hieroglyphs and petroglyphs and so forth for the government etc.
(JRR Tolkien even rejected being recruited into the CIA several times & he wrote everyone by letter and referenced the dudes who came to him as “little boys who knew not what they got themselves into” which showed his fearlessness.). The readers of the trilogy that came out are who he writes back to despite always replying to everyone back and forth.
Many people have shared the stories regarding these conversations which were past down throughout the family lines of the people who had a personal relationship with Tolkien which was hundreds of people when he was alive. Thousands. (Some are in video format too or happened to be shared later on in the video or comes up during a video about him and his work.
Especially nowadays when many of us came out of the woodwork to defend professor Tolkiens legacy from amazons money grubbing hands and so forth. Giving many channels a new lease on life where some make Tolkien related content now amongst other things they create content wise.
You might have luck shopping for Drow Ears.
Drow are the myelinated elves of Dungeons and Dragons. It should have some shades in your gradient spectrum! Just beware of the spiders.
Lhang - name of The great elvish swords you see in the prologue being used in that frontline ebbing flowing strike formation tactic. This shows the skill of these warriors. Some are hundreds to thousands of years old. Their timeless prowess was caught on film perfectly. Awesome right?

(I wish someone got to inform you beforehand…. But you’re not the first person I’ve inspired to watch the extended.)
It’s not a big scene but you missed it by skipping the extended editions. - The song Aragorn sings has huge importance! Here is the full version: “The leaves were long, the grass was green, The hemlock-umbels tall and fair, And in the glade a light was seen; Of stars in shadow shimmering, Tinnúviel was dancing there, To music of a pipe unseen
And light of stars was in her hair; And in her raiment glimmering
There Beren came from mountains cold; And lost he wandered under leaves; And where the Elven-river rolled. He walked alone and sorrowing. He peered between the hemlock-leaves; And saw in wonder flowers of gold
Upon her mantle and her sleeves; And her hair like shadow following
Enchantment healed his weary feet; That over hills were doomed to roam
And forth he hastened, strong and fleet; And grasped at moonbeams glistening
Through woven woods in Elven-home; She lightly fled on dancing feet
And left him lonely still to roam; In the silent forest listening; He heard there oft the flying sound
Of feet as light as linden-leaves
Or music welling underground; In hidden hollow quavering; Now withered lay the hemlock-sheaves
And one by one with sighing sound
Whispering fell the beachen leaves; In the wintry woodland wavering
He sought her ever, wandering far
Where leaves of years were thickly strewn
By light of moon and ray of star; In frosty heavens shivering
Her mantle glinted in the moon; As on a hill-top high and far
She danced, and at her feet was strewn
A mist of silver quivering
When winter passed, she came again
And her song released the sudden spring,
Like rising lark, and falling rain; And melting water bubbling; He saw the elven-flowers spring
About her feet, and healed again
He longed by her to dance and sing
Upon the grass untroubling
Again she fled, but swift he came
Tinnúviel ! , Tinnúviel !
He called her by her elvish name
And there she halted listening
One moment stood she, and a spell
His voice laid on her: Beren came
And doom fell on Tinúviel
That in his arms lay glistening
As Beren looked into her eyes
Within the shadows of her hair
The trembling starlight of the skies
He saw there mirrored shimmering
Tinnúviel the elven-fair
Immortal maiden elven-wise
About him cast her shadowy hair
And arms like silver glimmering
Long was the way that fate them bore
O'er stony mountains cold and grey
Through halls of ireon and darkling door,
And woods of nightshade morrowless
The Sundering Seas between them lay
And yet at last they met once more
And long ago they passed away
In the forest singing sorrowless”
The true elvish version is far greater and so full of beauty & nuanced mournful sadness that’s break the hearts of mortals from its beauty and sadness so the true song has been sort of taboo and the mannish tongues that retell it is stated to only be a shadow beneath the tree of the true story!
(A clip of it is in the original definitive version though. Viggo Mortenson who plays Aragorn designed the melody and style himself and wished it to sound Celtic in nature.)
I recommend reacting to the cover done by Clamavi De Profundis and Tolkien Ensemble after the trilogy is finished and even “How Howard Shore Used Voices”. You’ll see just how deep it went. The lore itself went into the musics lyrics. Using the languages within middle earth. So even when stuff couldn’t be put in they found other ways to highly reference it via the music. It ties in all the themes at the very end in a very profound way. The thumbnail image for it is Galadriel and the image has a blue tint.
@@Makkaru112 it was the extended edition
@@cpmf2112which scene out of the highly edited video shows it was the ex?
@@Makkaru112 she cut the bit with Isildur actually putting on the ring, but had a bit of that extended scene before and after. There are several bits of the Shire scene which are from the extended edition, plus a bit of the conversation between Bilbo and Gandalf in Bag End.
@@Makkaru112also the bit with Bilbo hiding from the Sackville Bagginses, and the Green Dragon scene with Merry and Pippin singing are only in the extended edition.
I can usually tell within just a few minutes whether it is the extended edition or the theatrical edition despite how much they edit it.
Hi! I'm a little late but I just found you and I'll be watching. Cheers!
This was an absolutely amazing reaction. You really hit it out of the park with this one. Even the emotional investment and you genuinely following the plot instead of just reacting to the visuals like most reactors have been doing recently. Seriously keep up the wonderful work.
I'm sorry, I know it's quite the read but because you are asking, I actually have a list I've spent most of my life making just because these are the movies I find to be the best as far as acting, symbolism, cinematography and every single one has a phenomenal plot. Though many are different genres like comedy, drama and sci-fi, all are still wonderfully made stories. Of Course I don't expect you to pick every title on my list of movies, although that would be absolutely amazing, but even if you consider watching even just one, it would be a God sent. Hypothetically if you did pick one, any that you don't react to, I still recommend you check them out on your own time because I consider all to be very beautiful in their own individual way.

Hey, thank you so much for the support and the comment. Never feel the need to apologize for the length. My Achilles heel is that I get emotionally involved with the characters. I appreciate the list: one or two I have watched but a lot I haven't and some I had on my list already so I'm glad we're on the same page. I would like to point out that you have a movie called The Producers (2005) and can I just say that made me smile ear to ear me and my family grew up watching that movie we even had the DVD so I'm really happy that someone else appreciates this movie like me. Again thank you so much and adding these to my list.
@@MissybeeMOVIES I would add Top Secret, The Matrix, Big Trouble in Little China, and The Shawshank Redemption to that list 😂
Thank you I will definitely add
What up from Aotearoa/New Zealand 🇳🇿
Mic humming is kinda annoying, hope you enjoyed the movie. Kind of hard to believe it’s first time watch with all the props lol
Please, for the love of all things Tolkien: Read The Texts. The books are even better than the movies. Only half a million words. Easy
did the "reacter" cut out every second she didn´t talk? That makes no sense to watch.
Compared to a reaction, I would say this is more of a commentary on a movie...
I heard much more dialogue coming from you, than what can be heard from the film.
I wonder what the point is in watching a film in this way, and really annoying to listen to, I'm sorry to say so
Maybe you could just watch the movie for that? 🙄
@@cpmf2112 I have already seen these beautiful films more than once; I would like even the youngest to appreciate them, so while I see them butchered by interrupting them every 5 seconds and covering everything with all kinds of chatter instead of watching, I wonder what the point is.
If you are not interested in a certain movie, maybe it would be better to watch something else....
@@AllSides_07 I suggest that you try recording a video exactly as you describe and try uploading it to TH-cam and see how many times it gets rejected.
I see a lot of new reacters catching small bits of the movie because they're too busy commenting on every little thing, and then they don't know what's happening later because they missed the multiple times in the movie where things were explained. Smartphone generation I guess. Those that stick in there will figure this out for themselves. They won't listen to a boomer like me though.
You hit a nail on the head.
And then, it should be added that they try to emphasize the reactions or comment on anything probably to try to appear more captivating, but they don't realize, instead, that the result is almost irritating. Genuine reactions have become pretty rare now
