Not joking I REALLY would have wanted to work at this movie. All the logistics and the community... It sounds absolutely FANTASTIC.

Watching this video 2023.... That feeling when Elijah Woods said "I turned 19 when I first came to Hobbiton for the first time 11 years ago, I'm 30 now. " It's been 11 years since this video was posted, he's now 42 years old.

Elijah: when I was 19
me: oh he doesn't look much older really
Elijah: I'm now 30

10:35 "my four daughters auditioned and they all missed out and I got in" I love this guy

[robertnyhus]

"My 4 daughters was audtitioning, but missed out, but I got a role. I was not a populare father then heh heh heh" That laughter when he says that :P

[Holmesy]

"remember, if you're on this plane, it's because you're so important"
All the guys driving the trucks: Well then, we'll just stay at home and see how well your movie goes lmao.

The creation of hobbiton is actually quite amazing. As a perosn who watched all the movies, you see all these amazing places like Hobbiton, and you dream that they were real. But, in most cases they are not. Just learning that Hobbiton actually exist is an amazing feeling that is very hard to describe.

I would never have imagine how much work and preparation goes into making a movie like this. It is truly amazing. And what an incredibly beautiful country.

6:51 “It’s weird when you come to a place you literally thought you would never be again”. I’m so happy, that Peter Jackson returned to this place. Noone could make The Hobbit better then him.

Randomly recommended to me in 2020. Im not disapointed.

Oh my Gosh!! This was 8 years ago now? 🥲 The song/instrumental of the movie always brings nostalgia. It makes you think about the good things, miss people, places and situations and made you think where did the time go? 🥺💘

[FireWhiskeyFan]

So... Elijah Wood just decided not age?

[MarkArandjus]

"I'm 30 now"
Hasn't aged a day, that ring did him good...

Ich bin 60 und habe Herr der Ringe und den Hobbit sicher schon 20 mal angesehen und bin immer wieder von dieser unendlichen Phantasie angetan. DANKE Tolkien, DANKE den hervorragenden Schauspielern, DANKE den Produzenten. Gerd F. aus Plauen in Deutschland

I wonder if they lost anything, like imagine walking through the middle of nowhere in New Zealand and finding a magic arm.

[FrKEaGuY]

Wow...Gollum really climbed up. Wasn't long ago he caught fish under the misty mountains, now he's 2nd unit director!!

I remember myself watching this vlog in 2011. It gave me an impression of almost been a part of this fantastic crew, creating the comming masterpiece. Seen the joy and botherings of returning to so beloved story was amazing! Suddenly had an idea to contact and really try to join, whatever the help I could provide. But we were just planning to become parents with my wife at that time... so put away that idea) Now we are experiencing the second war against russia since that time. Already twice lost all we had but were still lucky to stay alive. Now I am separated with my family, girls are safe far away abroad. And I can take a rest for a short while here at war. Watching this vlog is surprisingly bringing back the warm feelilngs of going back home. Back home to this movie and to my home, even in good memories. That is why would like to say THANK YOU, Sir and team! For the great story on the screen and great memories.

I wonder how much this movie helped New Zealand's tourist industry.

[markmarsh]

I'm not much of a traveller but I definitely hope to see Hobbiton before I die.
