LOTR But every time Sam takes a step he keeps reminding himself of going farther from home (MEME)

First Draft of my response video to the awesome video made by "Patryc" ( • lotr but every time sa... ). If idea is liked, I will continue this edit. This is a rough first edit.
Instead of cutting back to the original scene and making the movie so much longer, I wanted to make it so that he keeps reminding himself in his thoughts every time he takes a step away from home.

[@Wistbacka]

Okay, this seems to be gaining more and more popularity. Perhaps I have to do it. I'm not enough of a nerd to know this, so please, if someone can link me some instructions about when Sam is ACTUALLY walking away from home, and not walking backwards (like when they run back from the mountains) that would be helpful. Thank you!

LOTR but Sam has PTSD.

[@AlisonBryen]

No joke this is a bit like a having intrusive OCD thoughts (except I cant hear them...I think them) 🥴.

[@LevCallahan]

Ok I wanna watch this whole movie like this instead of the 9-hour long "lotr but every time sam takes a step towards mordor he says it'll be the farthest he's ever been"

[@toddbender3463]

It would definitely be more entertaining

I genuinely really want to see this now! The mines of moria would be horrendous though XD

[@LevCallahan]

@@Aidan.w But if you put a reverb on it while they're in the mines, then it's hilarious.

I like how it fades out when the camera goes to Frodo. Also great work!

Please do continue this edit, it makes the idea far more watchable and I love it

Who’s here after the 9 hour version got copyrighted by Warner Bros 😃

[@nignamedmutt7270]

I thought I was losing my mind when I couldn't find that. I KNEW some lunatic had uploaded it at some point.

[@Pop-ms9zf]

I love how it subtly hints that if he takes another step, he’ll be the farthest away from home he’s ever been…

[@Darksaviour]

Warner brothers copyright blocked the originally video. So it’s now considered canon

[@epicfail3167]

We need a complete collection of every fan edit and cut them together as the extended fan edition of LOTR

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

This is what we need after the 9 hour version got taken down

[@ProfessorPesca]

I want the whole of Moria in this. Proper belly laughs from this video, thanks!

[@Fantomas24ARM]

We need the whole movie likes this.

Well, it's true, except whenever he takes a step BACKWARD, it literally IS the farthest from home he ever was.

I'm actually sad that the 9 hour one got copyright blocked.

[@rickywalter6707]

This reminds me of those annoying messages in Skyrim: “You’re over encumbered and you cannot run.” 100 gold removed, 500 gold removed” Ok ok shut the fuck up, I don’t want these messages to clog up my screen when I’m buying stuff. lol

[@Wistbacka]

Sam's mental baggage weighed heavily, but alas: he still found the strength to carry his best friend and the ring to the top of Mordor, all while knowing, he is yet again takin one. More. Step. Further. Away. From. Home

This totally cracked me up! I would absolutely watch a feature-length edit of this meme. :)

[@joseluisrojas220]

There used to be

[@trollge3712]

⁠@@joseluisrojas220they probably know they just mean this version

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

People said there was a meme where he did it for every step and I thought it would be a sound clip LIKE THIS. Apparently the thing (that's been deleted and I've never seen) played a clip each time which is annoying. THIS is what I was imagining and how it should be. Just do it for every step but as a sound!

[@trollge3712]

you call it annoying i call it dedication

[@Wistbacka]

@@trollge3712 One can argue what is more dedication; the guy who made the 9-hour edit did explain that while it did take a lot of time to make the edit, it was not very challening as he could just take the clip, and then have it inserted wherever the timeline-indicator was. It's a 1-button insert, and then you just use the arrows to move a few frames ahead each time. My edit on the other required me to sit there, look at the movie, but also figure out the rhythm of how Sam probably was moving to insert the audio-clips in the correct tempo depending if Sam was running or walking. And that small part where I also tried panning and changing the EQ was very tedious for a editing novice like me. I have since figured out how to do some of these things a bit faster, but a lot of work regardless (and regardless of the style of edit). However, watching the 9-hour edit. THAT is dedication.

[@trollge3712]

@@Wistbacka Yeah thats true. I didn’t watch the whole thing but I did watch the first movie while I was supposed to be doing zoom classes and none of the homies were on Minecraft. Good times

[@Wistbacka]

​@@trollge3712I presume all your answers on the exam was "Sam had never been this far away from home"?

[@TheSychuinTree]

To be fair, he also must've taken quite a few steps in the direction of his home, rather than away from it.

[@Wistbacka]

schhhh🤫

[@BendixX69]

Omg 20 years and the memes are still fresh!

[@ludwigamadeushaydn706]

Yeah but you need to calculate the exact direction of each step to make sure if he's turned around he's not saying it

[@Wistbacka]

NNEEEERD!!!! 😁 But also yes. But in the eventuality I will do this for real, I will utilize the knowledge of people who has already done this. I am not at all a LotR-nerd. I love the movies, but that's about it. 🤪

I'm sorry. But at the time I didn't have the interest to continue. Then I lost all my data files. And once I got them back, I learned that Warner Bros went hard on taking down any full length versions of the movie, be it meme or not. But I almost started doing it again. But glad you enjoyed this snippet. 🤩

[@Rev_9898]

Gold! How long did it take to make this

[@Wistbacka]

Thank you! 😄 I think it was like an evening? 4 h perhaps? That included making a whole another segment too. I have honestly not worked on this since, and a few weeks after this was done, my harddrive corrupted so I lost all of this. I might be able to recover it, but I have not worked on that part since.
