The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Uh, the, the biggest movies and, um, kinda entertainment things after that were a lot of fantasy.

Lord, that was Lord of the Rings, y'all.

Mm-hmm.

That was the Peter Jackson, um...

He didn't make it.

Shout out to Lord of the Rings.

They head out, and Chris is frantically trying to get ahold of Rose.

He finds a ghost town called Silent Hill, West Virginia, on the web, and we see Rose driving.

No way.

Uh, shout out to Sean Bean.

Again, didn't give his character shit to do in this movie, but Lord of the Rings, I'm not a massive fan of, but I like him.

And then he's also really good in National Treasure as a evil piece of shit.

Gimli was the first and only dwarf allowed to stay in the Undying Lands.

And at one point, and I know you remember at the very end of The Return of the King, at the very end of The Hobbit actually, of The Ring, or The Fellowship of the Ring, Tolkien had included, and this was portrayed beautifully in the film, Frodo had told Samwise, he's like, "The Shire's been saved, but not for me." And I always thought it interesting that...

But the, the, the difference between Frodo and Aragorn.

It- this would have corrupted any other man to have to carry the ring, and Aragorn knew that.

It wasn't Pokemon.

Was it Magic that Post Malone spent a million dollars on the Lord of the Rings? Yes, the one ring.

Yeah, the one ring to rule them all card.

I will never be finishing my series because I don't have $150,000 to just spend on cards.

It's set for life.

He doesn't need it.

I'd actually be really interested to know what his Lord of the Rings deal was.

I just saw an interview with, it was a Cate Blanchett, who was like the White Queen in Lord of the Rings.

Gleeson as well, so it would make sense.

yeah it's actually a pretty stacked cast it is an incredibly stacked cast one thing I noticed I didn't really care when I watched Pirates of the Caribbean because I didn't care for Orlando Bloom in that and then I noticed it greatly when I watched the Lord of the Rings films and then it was kind of confirmed in this Orlando Bloom is not a good actor at all he's just really good looking

yeah

Oh, and in Black Hawk Down, but I barely remember him in Black Hawk Down, so it doesn't matter.

Yeah.

Honestly, it's funny because Aragorn is easily the way better, more badass character compared to Legolas.

But Legolas is the iconic character besides Gandalf in Lord of the Rings.

But then when you watch it, Legolas is not a character in Lord of the Rings.

Okay.

I gotta call this out a little bit because take Fellowship of the Ring.

Okay.

Fellowship of the Ring works on its own as a movie.

True.

This is true.

Very much has two movies coming after it.

Right.

Yeah, you can't do that on a Peter Jackson film

... can't, at least not on a Lord of the Rings one.

Maybe on a-

No. Yeah, you could do that-

Sure.

I mean, you know he's making...

He's just making another Lord of the Rings movie, right?

Well, he took part in that animated...

I mean, what else is there to say? No, we've talked a little bit about this moment, I think, in maybe our Galadriel or Sauron episodes.

And I love the way that she references the lines from the Fellowship of the Ring.

The door is closed.

Like, you can see her slowly gaining resolve as the fight goes on.
