The head went down some animal burrow, and thus the game of golf was invented, and the battle won at the same time.

I think its bc Mr Jackson created a safe environment for them and they all became like family. Plus they were kids and its easy to form strong bonds when youre younger. However, I dont see that reflected in the cast of Harry Potter? Not sure…
@khymaaren Рік тому
@@THEDOORIZCLOSED I think the two cases are completely different. In the case of LotR, the (majority of the) cast spent 1.5 years shooting the three films back to back, away from their own homes, working and, essentially, living together in New Zealand. And then there were the yearly pickup shootings that had them return for a couple of weeks or even months, I'm not sure. The HP movies were shot on tight schedules and in the UK, which allowed for the stars to commute from home, even. I don't think they had the time to form such deep relationships while working together. But I haven't watched the extras for any of the HP movies. I definitely don't have insight into the behind the scenes stuff the same way I do with LotR.

“Hush!” said Pippin in a terrible voice to all Bilbo's friends-and-relations, and “Hush!” they said hastily to each other all down the line, until it got to the last one of all. And the last and smallest friend-and-relation was so upset to find that the whole Expotition was saying “Hush!” to him, that he buried himself head downwards in a crack in the ground, and stayed there for two days until the danger was over, and then went home in a great hurry, and lived quietly with his Aunt ever-afterwards. His name was Stephen Colbert.

the Shelob question was easy if you know the Silmarillion imo but I didn't remember that it was mentioned where the entmoot was held (then again I would only know the German name for it too) and I do remember that it was a Tuck who invented golf and the story behind it but wouldn't have been able to name him even though hearing the name immediately rang a bell. As this is a TV show it could of course be just staged but even if it would be, I want to believe it is not.

Ungoliant is actually an incredible story. A story of an abused creature that gets power but doesn't know how to control it. And as such ends up killing herself from the same power. She eats and she eats and she eats. Nothing will satiate her. And in the end, we don't know for sure, but some believe she ate herself as the last option. She eats the light of Arda, she is the one who truly destroys the trees. And morgoth is betrayed since he intended to betray her anyway

@cleverusername9369 2 роки тому
@@gigantisaurusrex6647 absolutely correct. I will say though as a rabid fan of the Master and Commander books, I was surprised to see Billy cast as Barrett Bonden, he doesn't really physically fit the description from the books, and I was so used to seeing him so recently as Pippin that it was a little jarring, but he nailed it, as did everyone in the movie.
