[@123aasmund]

Ian's laugh at the end!!

[@matthewsaul3533]

I honestly didn't think I could love Ian McKellen anymore than I already do. But after seeing just bits of the environment in which he had to perform, as well as the process of constant direction being called out.. I'm not an actor, but I am an artist.. and being an artist I can intuit something about what acting might be like and what might needed to do a performance justice.. I feel a lot of empathy. I can very much imagine how impossible it would feel to perform that way as an actor. And yet, he committed himself to complete three whole films under such conditions. To me, that feels like an enormous gift of love to the audience. And that the crew decorated his tent to make him feel more loved and seen to support the whole process. It's just beautiful. It makes me love Ian McKellen, and these films even more than I already did. Wow.

[@sweetcheacks]

I just want to give Sir Ian the biggest hug on the face of the planet and have tea or coffee with him and talk about nonsense and randomness. I love him so much :-)

[@gwengreene9499]

When Peter talked about the low tec ways of shooting with Ian and the Dwargs, I snorted and laughed at Ian's favorite, saying to myself "oh, I wonder why?". XD lol

[@gasparagusproductions3563]

[@DanielosVK]

Maybe he meant the actor playing Ori. Afaik he's gay.

[@LeDameMarciana]

The "Thank you, Jimmy" at the end cracks me up almost as bad as Peter's deadpan expression EVERY SINGLE TIME.

[@ravenvalkyrie7725]

[@CaitieLou]

Lol, just watch Sylvester McCoy's face behind him.
