I am a major Bogard fan and I loved this. Which movies did you use? I saw:
Casablanca, Maltese Falcon, Big Sleep, The Third Man (clever, Bogart was not even in it), Godzilla (also not a Bogie), and M (again, not a Bogie), and Dark Passage.
Bogart was a kick ass Frodo. The Dark forces would not stand a chance against the guy.
Well, I'll give the bad news first...that was by no comparison the worst Peter Lorre impressoin I've ever heard. Ever. My ears bled. The man is spinning in his grave as we speak.
But other that that, this video was a riot. All of the other voices were great. I love the clips you used, and the actors you picked for each part. Bogart's attitude was just priceless for a LOTR spoof. And I just love how you inserted the silly monsters into the story. Bogart vs. Godzilla was just priceless. XD
Hutt man this is utterly supoib as they say : ) i KNEW Peter Lorre would be gollum and as for Shelob, utterly priceless. The little details like the hotel signs being changed to the likes of 'Moria' fantastic. great work m8ty and the best parody out there bar none.
Originally released with the title Lorre Of The Ring, this short film inspired J.R.R.Tolkien to expand the story into a 3 volume trilogy he called Lord Of The Rings.
He never paid Warner Brothers a cent for royalties on the story idea.
Whomever did this has quite some culture under his/her belt. Godzilla's about 14 years newer than The rest of the clips, though. But seriously, how many Bogart movies have a giant, fire breathing monster in it?
Very enjoyable, thank you for posting but I wish there were more credits in your search criteria and I would have spotted this great video much sooner. At 6:01 to 6:10 that's Elisha Cook following Bogart. Could you add him to the credits even if his role isn't a speaking one? There are a lot of character actor fans who are also Tolkien fans!
I don't know how it got passed up... not even a mention... I think it should have got at least nominated right next to the Dictator with Charlie Chaplin...
Not sure which is funnier, the obvious brilliant parody we are presented with, or the low IQ types screaming that it's crap or pointing out that LotR wasn't written yet rofl
LOL - it's a parody a guy made by taking apart past films and editing them together using his own voices, not actually a film made by Howard Hawks in 1940. Unless you were just saying to the parody guy that it wasn't a plausible date to choose...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
little problem here, they dated the date wrong, LOTR didnt come out till 1952-1954 depending on the book. Its an okay parody, ive seen some better but i have seen soooooooo many worse.
An insult from a complete imbecile is indeed a compliment to the intelligent. So dodgesxt, I thank thee for your attempt to offend me. In actuality, you made it known once again that I have more intelligence in my pinky finger than you do in your entire body.
NOOO!!
