The Lego Lord of the Rings: A Cinematic Masterpiece

[@RTGame]

I love The Lord of the Rings and I loved this game. Me and Kiwo have wanted to stream this for ages but there's some very obvious copyright issues, as the game lifts audio and music directly from the movies. We actually had to ask a Warner Bros representative directly if we could stream it without getting into potential copyright trouble, and they said we could hahaha. If anything does happen to this video due to KZbin's systems we've now the means to get it reinstated. So thank you Warner Bros there!

[@cosmoblender]

That’s great to hear, this game is an absolute gem. Glad they let you stream it, Dan :D

Jokes aside, lego lotr did an amazing job shaping the series into more of a joking, e for everyone type story, while still maintaining the brilliant adventure told by Tolkein and Jackson. I recently replayed it, it’s one hell of a sitting.

He is! I grew up with the DS version (I had no consoles to play the full version on), so this was my first time seeing these games in their full versions.

There are 2 more possible instances. One in Moria where he says ‘come on’ to Aragorn and Frodo when they need to jump off a stair (although, knowing his record in the rest of the trilogy he was probably just talking to Aragorn and didn’t even realise Frodo was there). The other one is apparently in the extended cut, where Legolas explains something and the camera cuts to Frodo, making it seem like Legolas was talking to Frodo (although this isn’t likely).

On the split screen troubles, something that's helped my sister and I in some games is going into the menu and changing the splitscreen from "dynamic" to "fixed", which just splits your screen down the middle and gives half to each player, without the divider spinning.

[@yellobanana6456]

I’ve never even seen the movies lol

[@loftwingheropon2743]

Ah this takes me back this game was so much fun.

[@hotdog8109]

Easily the best Lego game

[@Lurts]

@@hotdog8109 It's tied with Lego Star Wars: TCS for me

[@vinnie3731]

So there was this one time, I went out on my favorite boat, and gave a big speech. "I tell you that I hate the state of things! My friends hate the state of things! I will change it!" I then pushed all 34 of my friends off the boat connected to a giant piece of concrete

[@vinnie3731]

SO LONG SUCKERS I rev up my motorcycle and create a huge cloud of smoke. When the smoke clears, I'm lying there completely dead on the pavement

[@notnik1738]

all the lego games are pure joy and nostalgia, literally brings me to tears sometimes because of how truly amazing they were and still are, if only i still had my wii and 3ds to replay them..

[@friendlystickbug7863]

Mate, I wholeheartedly thank you for playing this game. This one's an enormous part of my childhood. May you have a blessed day :)

[@ow_hollow4709]

Considering how many people RT killed with a banana in the Hitman games, and that Sean Bean performed as one of the mission targets in one of those games, I'm kind of surprised RT didn't catch the uncanny irony to how Boromir dies in this @ 39:18 LOL

[@sugoistalin7809]

Honestly, Lego games are just goddamn great. The batman ones are still my favourite but this one definitely is a close second.

[@yoshi396]

Every Time Gimli Cries it makes me want to hug him, he's such a good Dwarf.

[@The-Great-Penguin]

He's like the guy who comes late to a ttrpg session but brings snacks as an apology

[@JaredThe]

This video is the first and only time I have ever experienced the story of The Lord of the Rings, truly no better way I can imagine.

[@lord_ozymandias]

the “LEGOLAS NOOO” at 28:33 sounds so genuine it makes me laugh every god damn time

[@loki_is_tired]

Ahh, I miss this. I remember the one time i was like 5, playing this on the xbox 360 with my sibling. They wanted to speedrun it, but I was absolutely terrible at the game, and he slowly got angrier and angrier at me as we went on. Eventually, he just stopped me from playing and made me watch them win. They did, but it took forever because of my bs.

[@Nyghtking]

There's an achivement in this game for using a character to walk all the way from the shire and into Mordor.

[@satele42]

I finally get to watch Lord of the Rings for the first time, and, I'm sure, on it's greatest form.

[@sharksuperiority9736]

20:13 See when I heard that, I didn’t imagine an NFT. I was thinking about those “Adopt-an-animal” Campaigns that zoos run “Adopt-A-Hobbit”

[@slammednissan350z]

back when i played this a few years ago, i would nonstop play for hours splitscreen with my brother. This game was a miracle and literally my childhood lego games like these provided me the knowledge i have to this day, without this game i'd be useless

[@abyunee]

5:46 “Gollum was my nickname in school fo-“ “For 500 years” Lol

[@Bobb243]

I used to play this game when i was young, I remember finishing it at least 2 times. This brings nostalgia to me.

[@Something_Maybe]

54:28 I swear, that Sauron jumpscare scared me so bad as a kid, that I didn’t play the game for a week straight.

[@graysonc.6661]

Man I remember when this first came out and we were all floored by the fact it was voiced, also my first experience with the lord of the rings as a kid.

[@JessInThe999]

Ive never seen the movies or read the books so to me this is 100% canon

[@HazeEmry]

I mean other than the humour it actually is very faithful

[@F0rger513]

Kiwo can barely contain herself when the music kicks in and it's adorable.

[@vanillazy]

this video singlehandedly dragged me into a lord of the rings hyper fixation and i watched all the movies and read the hobbit and half of the lotr even though i haven't read for pleasure in years (mostly because of your enthusiasm). thank you im so enjoy

[@kate-km4he]

you guys have no idea how happy this stream made me - my favourite game, favourite film series, favourite streamers ?!?!?!!? can't beat it

[@CJ-ln5ov]

0:00 I would’ve loved to be watching that stream live just so I could hear that music cue and go “AYO HE PLAYING LEGO DIMENSIONS?!” and piss everyone off.

[@eskidz]

I notice throughout that the split screen was a annoyance to you, while I may be wrong, for future notice I am pretty certain there is a option in the settings that will make the black line stay still in the middle.

[@chiefzombie9184]

"Sam I'm in a little bit of trouble" "That sounds like a you problem mister Frodo!" KILLED ME

[@Jahamez_06]

I remember playing this game before watching the trilogy, so when 5 year old me sat down and watched them for the first time I was fully expecting Boromir to get killed by a fucking banana.

[@thornels]

"This looks strangely familiar" Sam says, as Gandalf falls to his death

[@DjTheFrog5525]

I remember playing this game with my siblings in our basement. We always argued over who got to play the pretty Elf lady, or Gollum. It was the best years of my life. Thanks for showing this to me again RT

[@manybenefitsofmarinebiolog256]

I absolutely love how that one king in the intro that dropped the ring kept his absolute incompetence in his Nazgûl varient-he’s holding the sword upside down, one of the ones to comically catch fire, etc. Like it’s not just a funny intro bit it’s part of that wraith’s character

[@its_ya_ma]

RT never fails to give entertainment, comedy, and nostalgia

[@wwiggle7906]

As someone who hasn't watched the original trilogy, this was an experience.

[@Endec-0547]

I love how Gimli gets his axe back, gets hit in the balls by it and is dying on Legolas and you don't even notice! 26:46
