Gandalf meets Saruman

[TBStudios91]

serumeeeennn

[khav11]

And thon came Peter Jackson

[oshronosaurus]

i thought they renamed him aruman in this version?

[MrTheoriginalderek]

Ah-ru-mahn!!!!

[marchman3000]

Lololololol

[ItalianBlackheart123]

At 0:30 he sieges heil lmao

[SombreroKing100]

KHAAAAN

[panchamkauns]

Saruman is RED? This is worse than I expected

[MJRiley878]

thank you god for Peter Jackson

[amachin6]

this really is the worst adaptation of LOTR that I have ever seen

[Doog95]

@amachin6 also the first

[Trekiefreak777]

@amachin6 Than you have not seen the Rankin-Bass version.

[twilightzoneseinfeld]

Saruman looks a little bit like the crimson king in the dark tower VII

[CsnvLsRnst]

0:30 SIEG HEIL!!

[Hirvassalo]

Gandalf here doesn't resemble the book's character much. Behaviour-wise, anyway.

At least he didn't get any presents this year. He deserved none after pointing and yelling at Santa like that.

[SaawkRaawk]

the acting is so much worse than in the films...

[DarthRushy]

"We can deal with Sauron ourselves" sounded stupid.

[DarthRushy]

This may be a stupid question, but why doesn't Gandalf just walk down the stairs that Saruman(sometimes called Aruman in the cartoon) the Red is using.

[JHarrison646]

I always loved how Gandalf would have these mini spaz attacks episodes. For instance, Gandalf is clearly having an attack as he's going down the stairs and walking towards Saruman.

[MrJonesywales]

sarew man's staff is a fucking tree trunk

[frYZkYY]

nice staff saruman u ass....

[whoa92341]

0:21 every day I'm shuffling!

[jediking12]

I wish Ralph Baski made the third film

I wish none of this would of suffer thorugh this

so do all who live to see such times but that isn't for them to decide. All you have to do is do with the time that is give to you!

[MrShnard]

Saruman looks like a Persian cat

[jockejocke1]

Here they don't fight. This version is better.

[ScoTTishN1NJA]

after Moses lead the people out of Egypt......he decided he would become a wizard.......

[Yobidefy]

I didnt know LOTR came out long time ago... i

[mrrickstur]

Saruman looks like an asian santa claus

[mastercrowly]

this is fucked up like acid nightmare shit mang

[henrikhankhagnell]

this version is so much better than the modern one.

[Uzzie101]

@henrikhankhagnell hahaha fuck off how is it?

[GravitasNotIncluded]

Saruman sounds like an old Richard Dawkins

[tetrisclock]

Although Saruman isn't as evil and twisted.

[slytman85]

horrible voice acting 

[schoonfam08]

at 1:34 it looks like Saruman is flashing Gandulf.

[Yabuturtle]

Aside from living in a castle that pretty much every villain would be living in, therefore making it obvious that he'd be the bad guy, Saruman here isn't that bad. The thing is you don't see him that often despite being a major villain. The voice is ok I suppose although it would have been epic if this Saruman had the voice of Christopher Lee.

[zimstinka]

Saruman of many colers. LOL Never heard that one before.

[magykfyre1]

Oh the 70's...

Need I say more?

[EspadaUlquiorra0001]

I like how Gandalf waited for Saruman to receive his staff, instead of just knocking father christmas out right there.

[swrandomartist17]

What's wrong with Gandalf at 0:18?

And the voices? Who are these people? Nothing beats Christopher Lee and Ian McKellan.

[stripped5]

@swrandomartist17 Hes old and has heavey clothing walking down stairs.

[jjeesssica]

Saruman has girl nails! haaa

[Foulfangs]

Never saw this movie, whats the name and where do I get?

[Richarmadrid28]

@Foulfangs Mmmm, I think it is called... mmmm.... "The lord of the rings"

[Foulfangs]

@Richarmadrid28 Thats a bit basic for the franchise, isn't it? I mean the specific movie.

[Richarmadrid28]

@Foulfangs If you want to search it you can try "the lord of the rings animated film" or "the lord of the rings Ralph Bakshi"

[Slajjin]

Saruman of many colors! If I had a nickel for every time I had heard that I'd have 1 nickel.

[aranhaloco]

Aruman the Red

[mailchibi88]

Aruman used Flash!

[Draevan13]

0:30 why is Gandalf giving Saruman a Nazi salute?!?!?!?!

[doltBmB]

@Draevan13 Because before being stigmatized by nazi use it was a common salute used throughout the ages.

[VacuoCercare]

I like this version of that scene :)

[APolaris]

Saruman: I am Saruman of many colors!

Gandalf: You forgot to separate the whites again, didn't you?

[TheGojira84]

SAURUMAN OF MANY COLLAAAAAS

[goodmanners101]

saruman sounds like a gay here....

[MisterLollercaust]

I love how Gandalf walks into Orthanc. I walk like that when I walk to the toilet.

[Fullmetalminos]

wtf Santa is a wizard hahahahah

[ThePajilla]

in minute 1:40 saruman say "freeze" jajajajaja XD



[navras81]

saruman of many colors? hahahahah :D

[akica93]

@navras81

actually he calls himself as sauron of many colors and he did not wear the white robe but instead woven from all colors

[DavrosTheGreatHealer]

@akica93 Saruman* of many colours. It's in the book though the set up to him saying it is different.

[DavrosTheGreatHealer]

@akica93 "For I am Saruman the Wise, Saruman Ring-maker, Saruman of Many Colours!'

I looked then and saw that his robes, which had seemed white, were not so, but were woven of all colours, and if he moved they shimmered and changed hue so that the eye was bewildered."

[Tas123x]

Comunist Saruman

[JashinSacrifice]

@ UncleHobbysHobbys At this time saruman is already saruman of many colors

[KidGikku]

"A new power is rising..."

Pathetic. Christopher Lee is

way more charismatic.

[pacman5698]

I actually wanted to see more of Saruman in this film. Shame Bakshi did not get to do Return of the King.

[wuebboltc]

"You..." (Points to himself)

"And I" (Points to the air)

[PictureOnAWall]

he's actually called Saruman of many colours...

[WoWrofllolz]

'SARUMAN!'  'hehehehehehhehe'

[dashaftable]

Gandalf always was my nigga. But then his love of the Halflings' Leaf landed his wizened ass in jail. I miss that son of a bitch.

[TheRushingWind]

@dashaftable racism is immature

[Vampirewolfking]

0:30 Nazi salute :D

[2236Julius]

Is this movie exists???

[Sauron018]

0:37 Gandalf is showing devil horns. Ave! \m/

And... Why Saruman has pink hair?

[CyraUK]

Is that... Moses?

[jamestown111]

never knew santa claus was so evil..probably joined Mordor inorder to enslave more elves to his factories.

[Jeeves574]

Could someone explain what happens from about 1:53 onwards?

[Alariaify]

If you choose "transcribe audio" in the subitiles menu, Saruman reveals us being homosexual at 1:31

[TabletopwargamingHD]

0:23 Do a little dance!

[HowManyTimes234]

this scene = proof that this version sucks.. great animation but just really crappy telling of the story

[reksub10]

@BenjaminKaufman yeah another director took up the last part a few years later ,but i thought it was poor compared to the 1st half ,but its stillokay but they added some cheesy songs in the last part ..just search youtube for return of the king cartoon

[GilliganKrueger0829]

Or saruman of many colors!

-No, please don't flash me

[BioCrawl]

why does saruman seem asian?

[Jawarable]

I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS 

[gialloLantern1]

"And here you will stay, Gandalf the Grey, and rest from journeys. For I am Saruman the Wise, Saruman Ring-Maker, Saruman of Many Colours!" (Tolkien 258-259).

[NottinghamForest22]

Gandalf at 0:30

Heil Hitler

[josepasillas530]

saruman of many colors

[chukleheads]

The Two Towers, Page 195, He refers to saruman as Saruman the white. Saruman of many colors is a title he appointed himself after he became evil.

[codafett]

Someone needs to Rifftrax this movie

[jhibbitt1]

how exactly did gandalf get on top of orthanc lol, is it just me or does the ceiling just vanish and then the stairs

[Dragongod41]

Why do they pronounce Saruman as Aruman and Sauron as Soron? -_-

[askjiir]

@Dragongod41

Because they suck.

[GMinthehouse]

0:05 your kidding the villian lives here no wwwwwaaaaaayyyyyyy

[Johnlindsey289]

A decent effort but no cigar, Peter Jackson managed to be true and faithful to Tolkein's vision.

[supercrono144]

@Johnlindsey289

... what? That must be a joke. Pretty much every character is, well, out of character.

[Johnlindsey289]

@supercrono144

So you don't think Jackson's LOTR had no character? i thought Jackson nailed Tolkein's vision well.

[supercrono144]

@Johnlindsey289

Did I say no character at all? No, I don't think so. I said that they were out of character. Most of the time, they are inconsistant with their alter ego in the books. It's more obvious in the case of Gandalf and Frodo.

[MasterofArda]

@supercrono144

As opposed to this? Not freakin' likely!

[MasterofArda]

@supercrono144

Right, because there was an "Aruman" in the book.

[cujo9]

sauron is moving at last !

[Sacrilege83]

Is it just me or did Saruman just give a gansta salute to Gandalf when they first meet?

[Maestroshnitzel]

Those are some trippy stars...

[senseidryan]

Saruman's robe was supposed to appear to be white, but when he walked with Gandalf it appeared to glimmer and change to many different colors as he walked, symbolizing his loss of purity.

[Alterego912]

1:35 "Please, don't flash me!"

[GANGSTAELPASO]

why does saruman sound like gwonam from ytp zelda cartoons

[azn3000]

1:36

Saruman the flasher

[Varyalover]

or Saruman of many redness

[Varyalover]

They sems to nkow little of their own race.Istari are now 'wizards'.And Gandalf is clueless.

I will leave you here to souron's will

If you do this, Souron will shurely find the ring!

[Ali5tar]

It's more like "Gandalf meets evil Santa"

[theKrystalcharm]

@Ali5tar YESSSSSS!!!!!!

[larson269]

@Ali5tar HELLS YES. your comment made me laff.

[cujo9]

in this scene saruman could of easily killed gandalf but instead chose to bewitch him.

[ivkoacount]

@cujo9 but then he would have reincarnated again as Gandalf of many colou... i mean Gandalf the white, being stronger then ever...

[MasterofArda]

@cujo9

Thank you, Captain Obvious....

[UncleHobbysHobbys]

Saruman the white?

more like Saruman the red....

[haden9]

@UncleHobbysHobbys

in the books, saruman's apparent corruption became noticeable when he stopped wearing white robes to more colorful ones. i cant remember though if it was red though...

[UncleHobbysHobbys]

@haden9

he looks like an evil Santa Claus;)

[pharze]

@haden9 Yup. He wore more dark robes. Jackson totally whiffed on that one. And people who never read the LOTR ask questions why is he wearing a red robe instead of a white one.

[Ladypurpulhair]

@pharze Sauram? didnet we wear a white rope what was all sparkely and smimering in the light?

[kimcheestinks]

@UncleHobbysHobbys More like Wop the Fag. Do Japanese community accept you as one of them, fag boy? No self-respecting Japanese would deal with a half-breed like you. Most Japanese call you half-breed and mongrel behind your back. Hahahahahaha!!!!!

[UncleHobbysHobbys]

@kimcheestinks

stop trolling me you faggot ass jap;D

[CondeDrareg]

@UncleHobbysHobbys no...it is...SARUMAN OF MANY COLORS!!(rises arms)

[UncleHobbysHobbys]

@CondeDrareg

:)

[14Schofield]

@UncleHobbysHobbys His title was "Saruman the Wise", and he was also known as the Wizard of Many Colours, I believe.

[UncleHobbysHobbys]

@14Schofield

yeah

in the books,, white wizard are the greatest masters of whichery;)

[hamsikElavezzi]

@UncleHobbysHobbys Saruman in the book is not white...but he has a COLOR CHANGE wear it s like no COLOR

[NarnianHogwart]

@hamsikElavezzi  yes but its not red

[cujo9]

saruman has the ultimate power in this .

[cujo9]

this is by far the best adaptation of lord of the rings .

[cujo9]

for the time it was made ALL characters in this film were portrayed greatly , and made many of happier audiences back then and many many million now.

[sith1992]

@cujo9 Wow boy, aren't you vulgar? Says a lot about your intelligence if you normally communicate like that.

Oh an art piece? You gotta be kidding me Bakshi BUTCHERED the entire scene and not only this scene, the whole goddamned movie (Balrog looking like Chewbacca?)

And if this movie was as popular as you say it is then why is it not known so much more widely?

No one cares about your opinion as well quoting your words,your worthless shit little opinion isn't worth anything , monkeybrain

[cujo9]

saruman was portrayed very well here , more closer to the books . and even more so gandalf , gandalf here in bakshi version was always how i imagined him reading the novels.

[sith1992]

@cujo9 you really have to be kidding me about saruman being well portrayed. He sounds more like a decaying old man here.

Gandalf? Gandalf sounds like a whiny bitch.

Grow up and get some sense into you.

[cujo9]

@sith1992 you obviously don't appreciate a classic film when you see it, little scumbag . the only whiny bitch here is you, gandalf and saruman would break your fucking neck .

[JanoSeishu420]

@cujo9 Gandalf is definatlet more well portrayed here. Don't know about Saruman though...

[sith1992]

@cujo9 Saruman was portrayed better than the book? The book dictates how saruman SHOULD be portrayed. That just shows that Mr Santa over here was portrayed wrongly -_-

[cujo9]

@sith1992 dictates ? what the fucking are you waffling about ? what a joker you are , ANY film or cartoon adaptation would be hard pressed to uphold the book, you clown.

[sith1992]

@cujo9 *washes cujo's mouth with soap* now now, cant you make a single post without using vulgarities? I expected a bit more maturity for a man twice my age. :)

Dude listen to yourself, -you're- the guy who claimed that this film portrayed saruman better than the books, not me.

[cujo9]

@sith1992 no you misunderstood.

i meant this version for its time did a damn good job at portraying all characters including saruman . saruman was portrayed uniquely here , in a very convincing evil , cunning way , which gave this version a unique quality .

any screen adaptation , jacksons and this one bakshi , would always be hard pressed to uphold the lord of the rings triology .

[wilhelmscream25]

@cujo9 stop trollin

[sith1992]

@cujo9 Yep, I agree that bakshi's film managed to bring home the books to people of that time, beyond any doubt.

My point is that you should respect other people's opinions as well, if you want people to respect yours. I agree that so much bashing for the film is unwarranted but there is no reason to curse everyone who does it.

[cujo9]

@sith1992 i do respect others opinions normally, i just don't like people slagging this film , especially young us teens who weren't around back then and were never apart of that era.

also, slagging a good production that brought a lot of happiness and the works of tolkien to the cinema screens of that era.

[sith1992]

Love the way by which gandalf walks down the stairs xD

[jhibbitt1]

wow this is as far as the christopher lee saruman as u can get

[minato12100]

saruman looks like santa

[Jacob96159]

whats with the dramatic animation when gandalf walks? lol too funny

[magykfyre1]

anybody else think that Saruman looks like Charloton Heston as Moses from the Ten Commandments? lol

[Adeon55]

He laughs like Darth Sidious :P

[williamhad]

wow this is horrible

[HRVDNT]

There are tons of things to make fun of in this movie, like Saruman who resembles a well known Christmas icon. But I got very strong associations with it, since it's a movie I grew up with.

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 Here's the bet. You tell that to my face and live, you'll get $50 000 or whatever currency you have, in cash. You fail and I kill you, I get to keep them.

Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot. You don't have the guts.

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 Nah, you're the whining bitch who started this bullshit. Book a ticket to Sweden and get £50 000 poorer, tard.

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 Because drinking tea all day ain't gay at all. Hahaha... Don't guarantee anything before you end up in the hospital. Tard.

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 *You're. Learn english, kid. Ah, yes. Talk is cheap. That's why I always knock the teeth out of tea drinking english girls like you and leave conversation out of it. Millwall. Is that where all your lesbo friends live?

No, I'm from Sweden. However, you're obviously so fucking retarded that you can't tell the difference.

P.S. Don't forget to book that ticket now. Ta-ta.

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 *You're. Three comments in a row since Iast time I posted one. Wow. Desperate much?

Sweden - tea is for pussies. Coffee is for men.

[cujo9]

@HRVDNT dude carry on drinking your coffee , not sure what relevance coffee or tea has to do with anything im sat here with a nice cup of tea ;)

[HRVDNT]

@cujo9 Maybe I got other things to do than humiliating a brit fag like you? Hope you don't mind.
