  • The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Reaction "Extended Edition". So today I'll be taking my final step into the land Middle-Earth and follow the quest of Hobbits, Humans, Elves, and Dwarves for a reaction to the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings The Return of the King. Yes, this is my first time watching this movie. After many years of waving it off as some overhyped project I can truly understand why so many people love it. I hope you enjoy my reaction of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

    'I wished to be loved by another,' she answered. 'But I desire no man's pity.'
    'That I know,' he said. 'You desired to have the love of the Lord Aragorn. Because he was high and puissant, and you wished to have renown and glory and to be lifted far above the mean things that crawl on the earth. And as a great captain may to a young soldier he seemed to you admirable. For so he is, a lord among men, the greatest that now is. But when he gave you only understanding and pity, then you desired to have nothing, unless a brave death in battle. Look at me, Éowyn!'
    And Éowyn looked at Faramir long and steadily; and Faramir said: 'Do not scorn pity that is the gift of a gentle heart, Éowyn! But I do not offer you my pity. For you are a lady high and valiant and have yourself won renown that shall not be forgotten; and you are a lady beautiful, I deem, beyond even the words of the Elven-tongue to tell. And I love you. Once I pitied your sorrow. But now, were you sorrowless, without fear or any lack, were you the blissful Queen of Gondor, still I would love you. Éowyn, do you not love me?'
    Then the heart of Éowyn changed, or else at last she understood it. And suddenly her winter passed, and the sun shone on her.
    ...
    'Then must I leave my own people, man of Gondor?' she said. 'And would you have your proud folk say of you: "There goes a lord who tamed a wild shieldmaiden of the North! Was there no woman of the race of Númenor to choose?"'
    'I would,' said Faramir. And he took her in his arms and kissed her under the sunlit sky, and he cared not that they stood high upon the walls in the sight of many.

    When Elrond delivers the sword, you can see Aragorn's last doubts about his inheritance. But the sentence in elvish is a quote from Aragorn's mother. I think this sentence was the last spark to convince Aragorn. Here is the background knowledge from the books: Aragorn was raised in Rivendell, as all Chieftains of the Dunedain. His given name was Estel, which means "hope" in Quenya. It was said that his mother, Gilraen, knew some of his destiny, as she had the gift of foresight. When Elrond revealed his true name and lineage to him, Aragorn was to set out into the world to fight Sauron's evil for many decades. When he came to bid farewell to his mother, her last words to him were the same words they spoke now :
    Onen i-estel Edain. U-chebin estel anim.
    "I give hope (Estel, her son) to men. I keep none for myself."

    Explanation of the Stewards of Gondor: Isildur cut the Ring from Sauron's hand with the sword of Elendil, his father. Isildur, "son of the king," was *not* "son of the king of Gondor." Elendil and his two sons, Isildur and Anarion, escaped from an island kingdom that was sunk like Atlantis. In the escape, their ships were separated. Elendil founded a new kingdom in the north called Arnor. The Shire was part of Arnor. Isildur and his brother Anarion landed in the south and founded Gondor together, becoming joint first kings of Gondor. So Isildur "son of the king" of Arnor was himself already king of Gondor.
    The problem is, Elendil never had any more kids, so who inherits his kingdom after he dies if both of his sons already have their own kingdom to run? Anarion died in the same battle as Elendil, so Isildur set things in order for Anarion's son to rule Gondor, then he renounced his claim to authority over Gondor and went to rule Arnor.
    A lot of generations passed and a lot of wars happened and some kings weren't so great. The last descendant of Anarion left a Steward in charge of Gondor while going off to war, died in battle, and the people decided they were better off just continuing with the Stewards than trying to find a new king. Meanwhile, the descendants of Isildur continued to rule Arnor. They noticed Gondor lost it's king and offered to take up the throne, as descendants of it's founder, but Gondor said, "no, thanks, your Isildur already gave up your claim to Gondor a long time ago, and kings haven't been so great for us recently." Since this was their attitude, the Stewards took pride in *not* sitting on the throne. Then the Nazgul that would stab Frodo in the future gathered an army from the region of Angmar, made a name for himself as a Witch King, and attacked Arnor. His war completely destroyed the infrastructure and government of Arnor.
    The Rangers are all that remains of the army of Arnor, still defending their citizens as best they can without a formal government or tax structure to support and pay them. The kings went into exile, raised in Rivendell to be chieftains of the Rangers while the Stewards continued to rule Gondor for generations. When Aragorn takes the throne, he becomes king of both Gondor and Arnor. He sets things in order for Faramir to take over as Steward and then goes back to restructure Arnor. The two kingdoms are so far apart that the Stewards are still necessary.
    Also, before you get too hard on Denethor, he always knew Gondor was the first obstacle in Sauron's way. He also had a Palantir (the "crystal ball") and spent years going head to head with Sauron the same way Pippin did, but without needing Gandalf to save him from it. When Pippin saw that Minas Tirith was where Sauron was headed, he was literally seeing into Sauron's mind, while Sauron was looking into his, trying to find information about the Ring. Denethor did this for years without letting Sauron get the upper hand, trying to fight Sauron mentally and see his plans. It slowly wore down Denethor's mental health.

    That the witch king could not be killed by a man came from a profecy by Glorfindel that he WOULD not be killed by a man.
    The witch-king had a magical defense so that anyone who stuck him would be poisoned and the weapon would be broken instantly. Mary used an elfish dagger to destroy his defense and then Eowyn killed him.

    Gandalf was sent to Middle Earth to advise and encourage the people to defeat Sauron, not to use his own abilities to do it for them. It was time for humans to come into their own and they could only do that by uniting and defeating the common enemy, bringing order and peace out of the lawlessness and chaos of Sauron's minions. They had to rise above even their own belief of what they were capable of doing to emerge ready to take over the stewardship of Middle Earth. By the way, two things happen toward the end of this movie that no one seems to notice. Pippin tells Merry on the battlefield, 'I'm going to look after you', when it has always been the other way around. Pippin has grown up. Later, Frodo says to Sam, 'I'm glad to be with you, Sam Gamgee...' when always before he'd said, 'I'm glad to have you with me...' He acknowledges Sam as not just an equal, but the one who got him through this god-awful time.

    I think you maybe missed the reoccuring theme of mercy - what Gandalf advised Frodo on when he first revealed Gollum was on his trail, and why Aragorn stopped Theoden from killing wormtongue. This is what separates the heroes from being as ruthless as their enemies and now stooping as low.

    The death of Saruman was only in the extended version, a decision that greatly annoyed Christopher Lee and remains pretty incomprehensible to me - Jackson had to cut something to get the running time short enough to force in an extra showing per day in cinemas, but that scene? Was important! Anyway, I'm glad you watched the extended version of ROTK just for that scene.

    You've probably heard this about a great many things regarding the books, but the Faramir/Eowyn was deeply developed in the books, and the Aragorn/Eowyn romance was contrived for the movies. I think it works with Faramyn, but I've read the books.

    Only the deepest and most ardent respect for those who cry during LotR! I honestly don't jive with reaction videos where they _don't_ cry LOL "I'm glad to be with you, Sam, here at the end of all things" ALWAYS gets me, too - EVERY time! (And then I just spend the whole rest of the movie crying.)
    Regarding Aragorn urging Théoden to spare Gríma (and ignoring the books for a moment), I honestly think this is poor storytelling on the movies' part. Saruman had been planning this attack for YEARS, and exploiting the culvert's weakness was CRUCIAL to his attack on Helm's Deep. Even in the movie verse, it simply isn't logical to have Gríma come in at the last second - even as Saruman is preparing the bomb and his army is marching out - to convey the information necessary to make those very crucial preparations. The only way for this sequence to make sense is to treat the voiceover as an incident from the past, and assume Gríma had already conveyed all of this information to Saruman long before Théoden spared him.
    But even more so, I think it's important to remember one of the most crucial tenets of Tolkien's writing:
    "Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends."
    Not only is sparing Gríma the just and noble thing to do, the action had many far-reaching ripple effects - including things that were beneficial to those opposing Sauron (such as drawing his eye away from Frodo and Sam).
    P.S. Hard agree on the Faramir/Éowyn relationship. Some people will try to argue it's more developed in the books, but... nah. Tolkien just didn't do much romance, and that's fine. And yeah, Sam doesn't leave in the books.
    Thank you so much for sharing your journey! It's emotionally draining, and I'm sure there's SO MUCH work that we don't see on the back end.

And much of Denethor's questionable behavior related to his use of a palantir (and resultant "influence" from Sauron)..

      I don't know about 6,000, but they had just about everyone in New Zealand who owned a riding horse, women included (about half the Rohirrim extras were women in fake beards).

    Loved your dissection in between parts of the movies! very rare amongst other reactors to the movie. I understand that you have to, unfortunately, choose to not make a reaction video to The Hobbit movies since it provides an interesting look into Bilbo's adventure few years back (and a few of us are interested to hear your take on the story) but yeah, you must be quite busy! but, but, buttttt, do please watch it whenever you get the chance to, yeah? Have a great day!

    "Smeagol hates Hobbitses", there are 2 reasons for that - Smeagol and Deagol were Hobbits, but after Deagols death, Smeagol got ran out of Hobbiton and 500 years later Bilbo took the ring, so Gollum knew where to send the riders to recover the ring.
    500 yrs with Smeagol/Gollum, 80 yrs with Bilbo but only a year with Frodo, the differences is skin contact - when Smeagol was excommunicated from Hobbiton, no way to get clothes so his contact with the ring gets limited, Bilbo always kept it in his pocket and occasionally touched it for reassurance, but Frodo always had it around his neck touching his skin (apart from the showing at Rivendell and when putting on the Mithril shirt). He was the only one with welts around his neck.

      There are three types of Hobbit, Harfoot, Fallohide, and Stoor. When the Hobbits first migrated West he Stoors went South and settled along a river near the Gladden Fields. They were the lowest class of Hobbit, whereas Harfoot was the middle and largest class and the Fallohide were said to have almost an Elven strain. Smeagol was said to have been from the river folk, akin to the fathers of the fathers of the Stoors'. He was, in other words, a long-sundered connection of Hobbits. It's somewhat like the connection between Europeans and the descendants of their early immigrants to the U.S. Smeagol was a creep before he took the ring, but with it he went home and caused so much grief that he was eventually exiled. Bilbo had the ring for 60 years, but was only beginning to feel its effects because he was a good person and had begun his ownership of it by feeling sorry for Gollum and not killing him when he had the chance. Also because Saruman had not yet regained his full power since his defeat in the War of The Last Alliance. Once he was fully restored, the ring was bent on reuniting with him and became much more virulent itself. The ring calls to and is called by evil, but can also turn the powerful (like Gandalf and Galadriel) to evil by leading them to seek ultimate power. Saruman fell prey by studying the lore of the ring, eventually trying to find it for himself because he thought the world would benefit by being run by 'the wise'. It's the downfall of all government.

    As to Éowyn & Faramir romance, the movies do a poor job of showing the growth of their love. But I get it. It's already a long movie and this was a B plot that didn't really impact the main plot. The scene where he takes her hand is one of the extended scenes, so the theatric release is even worse with the suddenness. It makes it feel like it happens overnight, but in the books they were both near death and recovering in the Houses of Healing while the army marched on the Black Gate. Plenty of time to fall in love. It's actually one of my favorite romances in literature.

    The Army of the dead were a group of people that dwelled in the mountains long past, but had sworn an oath of allegiance to Gondor to come to their aid when called. When they were called, they never came and so Isildur cursed them never to sleep until they had fulfilled their oath to the king of Gondor. I believe they were called to enter the battle of the Last Alliance, but I could be wrong.

      I'm sad to hear that. I JUST found your channel.
      This is such an amazing trilogy! Most definitely my favorite movies.
      Something that is not mentioned in the movies, but I think it puts a nice little bow on the series; After Frodo and Bilbo leave, the 3 remaining hobbits have long, happy, adventure filled lives. Merry and Pipin grow old and die in Gondor and are buried next to Aragorn.
      Sam becomes the mayor of the Shire and has a bunch of kids. After Rosie dies, Legolas builds a ship and him, Gimli and Sam leave Middle Earth and sail to Valinor.
      Sam was granted passage to Valinor because he was, even for a brief while, a Ringbearer. Gimli, the dwarf was granted passage because of his deeds.
      As far as I know, it isn't written if Sam and Frodo and the rest of the Fellowship me in the West. But I'd like to believe so.
      If you change your mind and watch The Hobbit, don't expect a Lord of The Rings type movie. The book was written as a children's book, so the tone is a little lighter. Its a very fun movie and it gives us so much backstory.
      Lord of The Rings, Rings of Power on Amazon Prime. I enjoyed it. The story takes places thousands of years before Frodo's story. It's visually breathtaking.
      They had to do a lot of padding on the story line because NOBODY has the rights to ALL of the Tolkien original material. Production had bits and pieces. The same thing happened with THIS movie, there was material that was relevent, but couldn't use because they didn't have the rights .Having said that,
      the Second Age is very fuzzy in the book, it is not as detailed as the First or Third. So that gives you a little wiggle room for storyline changes.
      It got a little clunky for me a couple of times, it was mostly dumb dialog. But I found the storyline is really interesting and seeing familiar characters is always fun.
      FWIW.

    Smeagol was not the most upstanding citizen to begin with. He was a sneak and a thief if I remember right. After he killed his cousin Deagol he wasn't welcome in his home village anymore. I've only read the books twice so far so my info might not be completely accurate.
    Be assured that in the books that neither Sam nor Frodo *ever* trusted Gollum. The only time they got separated was in the tunnel running from Shelob. What Sam did to rescue Frodo was even more epic in the book.
    The hobbits' return to the Shire was quite different in the book as well. It was not the same place they left and they all show their individual character growth when they faced what awaited them at home.

    @brwaters4924 Před 2 měsíci

    Yeah Eowyn and Faramir's romance is hella forced. It's a biiiiit more fleshed out in the book, but even then not the best execution. Tolkien originally didn't have Arwen as a character and was writing Eowyn to be Aragorn's love interest. But he decided that Aragorn was a bit too lordly for her, so he made the character of Arwen and pushed together Eowyn and Faramir. He openly admitted that he knows he didn't do the best job with her character, and that he didn't have the strongest grasp on writing women. In his defense though, she's *much* better written than a lot of other female characters written by his contemporaries AND in fantasy series that took great inspiration from LotR.

    Jackson's The Hobbit doesn't have the same amount of love put into it that LoTR did. Please, please give the animated Hobbit a watch. It's not that long and follows the book much more closely.
