The Shire

[skniwimmeL]

What's actually the name of this song?

[ChriosM]

For those asking, the song is called The Blood of Cu Chulainn, and it was in both Boondock Saints movies.

I love this video, can't believe it is only about 2 years old. I feel like I have been coming back to watch it again and again for longer than that.

[MegaGilliganitis]

@shawnandjeff2011 I have the same thoughts, sometimes I even get depressed watching these movies thinking its not real...

[yeKnowWho]

its from the bundock saints movie

[LordRoyoto]

I love the Shire, but only have the time or need to go there during the Halloween event (Harvestmath I think it's called)... I wish there was more content there for lvl 65+

[Hampe966]

@LordRoyoto PvMP should be there, like a mini area close atleast

[phel55]

what's the name of the song and who wrotes the song?

[Jetli390]

Gosh I love Celetic music!

[shawnandjeff2011]

is it weird that i wish i lived in the shire???

[Margygirl22]

ohh man das auenland der schönste fleck in mittelerde <3

[vancecoledotcom]

The Blood of Cuchulainn

Nice song choice ^^

[HoldenIOW]

this video makes me happy :D

[TheGamer040]

@HoldenIOW me too :)

[victoriaisabeau]

Why irish music?

[Olamtir]

@victoriaisabeau Why not? It's part of European culture and history and all-together folky.

Do you desire African or Islam music to satisfy your increasing multicultural tyranny??

[victoriaisabeau]

@Olamtir i'm irish ..?

[TheGamer040]

@victoriaisabeau i think its scottish music

[Jetli390]

@TheGamer040 I think it's more Irish than Scottish. Notice the extended use of the flute, fiddle, and penny whistle.

[sunburststratocaster]

makes me want to live in the middle ages, till the farms during the day, and play music like this in taverns at night.

[CanadianDude778]

I would spend my entire time in this game here

[MsPugLuver]

I <3 LotR and LotRO!!!!! and the shire theme is one of my fav songs =D

[sobolev499]

What zone is this in WoW?

[MsPugLuver]

@sobolev499 this isnt WoW, this is Lord of the Rings Online. <3 <3 <3 it

[sobolev499]

@MsPugLuver No this is WoW, it has gnomes. Is this in eastern Kingdoms?

[MsPugLuver]

@sobolev499 Dude, this is a song from a place called the Shire. which is in lord of the rings. i used to play WoW so ik wat im talking about. this isnt WoW, this is lord of the rings

[sobolev499]

@MsPugLuver Lord of the rings is a quest?

[MsPugLuver]

@sobolev499 LORD OF THE RINGS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WORLD OF WARCRAFT!!!!!

[sobolev499]

@MsPugLuver I'm still trying to find this place, I want to kill some alliance noobs here. Is it like an unlockable zone you need a code for?

[jguitarz1]

This is the Shire in Lord of the Rings online. ;)

[Guardiansaiyan]

How many Orcs survived who found the nerve to dislike this video?!

[Davkidboy]

I want to be a hobbit :)

[alistair1602]

its the ost from boondock saints yes ???

[zordzao95]

is this oblivion?

[Lotrtb]

I really want to live there!

[TrancoTechnizer]

Theme song of Bondook Saints,,,one of the collest films in my opinion...tho it has nothing to do with The Shire...it sounded a bit off for me,,,as I watched the film a few times...it just doesnt match with lotr

[haken1234]

@TrancoTechnizer it´s very easy! It not even has something to do with the film Bondook Saints!

It´s from a band that made this as a remember of time...when you heard bard´s that sung from big hero´s!

When i´m right....(i don´t exactly remember the name of the song)...is "The Blood of chuchullain" or something like this! The name of the band....don´t know xD

But i hope i could simply help everybody who search´s for the song!

Very happy greetings

Haken1234

[TrancoTechnizer]

@haken1234 but this is the Bondook Saints 1 main theme my friend, google it :P

[AtliGimp]

Amazing work, good job!

[TheRahan100]

How Can someone dislike this? It is genious..! Cheers for the uploader!

[nbleau]

at 3:19 I thought I saw the remnants of a beer pong game...haha, I was mistaken, but I so very thoroughly enjoyed this!

[iAmDeathSpank]

Music?

[skniwimmeL]

@iAmDeathSpank

Kid?

[iAmDeathSpank]

@skniwimmeL Huh? The music is called "kid?" ?

[dirkstorm]

Gorgeous. A friend posted this on FB after we were talking about a real world sustainable community template project done through the HELMS non-profit eco education group that is called SCCAP officially but is referred to as "Hobbitat for Humanity".

Do you know if it would be possible to simulate such a village and do a video of it using the methods they used here?

The village also centers around a biofuel system known as ORB that also looks like a hobbit house from outside.

[msadids]

das beste spiel überhaupt

[twloharms]

Great work!

[FearThisChannel]

1:23 That guys is always irritating me -_-

[bluffinboy01]

three people have been harassed by the color green

[azfantje2006]

Magnificent, and what a good music too. Does somebody know more of this music? I totally love it, Cheers!

[ZSSolomon]

Oh wow...

I appreciate your effort to create a nice Machinima in Lotro, but after copying literaly every camera angle and trick I used, you could have at least mentioned an "Inspired by Bain Ennorath" in your credits... ;)

[NeonNewversion]

Is lord of the rings online free?

[Luxai]

@NeonNewversion Yes. But if you wish to progress beyond lvl 45 and get a lot more quests and other goodies then you need to both subscribe and buy the epansions. However, all expansions can be brought via amazon and gametime cards can be brought over the net =)

[NeonNewversion]

@Luxai Thanks for the info dude=)

[VenusVagabond]

man what a beautiful video and song. It really brought joy to my heart friend. thank you

[SirPoloX]

[acw0123]

[Void339]

So gorgeous actually brought a tear to my eye thank you!

[joscha12345678]

[Indeed999]

What music is this? I really like it.

[LilPunKid]

@Indeed999 Its the theme of the Boondock saints

[Indeed999]

@LilPunKid Thank you so much!!! Lol, I love this kind of music.

[selearemus]

what game is this?

[the1Pipo]

[filipos1990]

Mordor is much gorgeous! xD kidding*

[knuze123]

This video is a copy from Jawins aka Davos1982 movie about middle-earth!

[BGJediOrder]

Favorites!!! This video was one of the best I ever saw! Cheers!

[Thistledove]

Well done!

[bloodgunslinger]

This video is awsome indeed,arkrend fire foot

[mbe102]

Congradulations, I'm in bree, watching this video on XFire In-game Browser, and you brought me back to this beautiful world. Thanks much :D

[little79bear]

The Shire was the first place I visited in the game and it is still my favourite place, thanks for reminding me why I like it so much.

[Oranpurple]

Great vid man ^_^

[Warrenjusti]

this made me smile :) for that I salute you

[CerebralSync]

@Warrenjusti Mission accomplished ;)

[mbe102]

God I miss this game.

[Malev93]

One word. Great!

[Armphid]

It may be a bit foolish but the peace of the Shire is very nice after being in some other zones. Which is why I bought a house there; just for the landscape and sense of contentment. All of which are well captured here.

[BornOfSong]

I am strongly considering using my game box I got a few months back in the bargain bin at target. If I did is there anyone who would be willing to level some with me? I have no desire to play another game alone. It has become the norm for me since I am the only person whom seems to have no desire to play WoW.

Also a friend has offered me a bunch of 60 day time cards he never used for $8.50 a piece. That helps.

[terrorflower]

Oh god, this was so beautiful. Thank you for reminding me how beautiful LOTRO is.

[Kruglar]

This video makes me want to play LOTRO again. Beautiful video.

[Dizzydogproductons]

this is a great vid. really good filming and the music works well too :)

[bachamn]

That still shot of the sun coming up was breath-taking. Excellent work, you just encouraged me to get back into the game after a long break. :)

[gwadamalla]

amazing video!

[CandaceMc2]

Beautiful video. I'm an avid Lotro player and I always find myself running through The Shire just to look at the scenery there.

[Archon877]

Fantastic work! I love the Shire, Turbine did a great job creating it, and you did a great job capturing it in a video. And I love the fact that the song you use is the same one from the Boondock Saints opening credits. Great stuff man.

-Kelazad, Guardian, Gladden

[ATAATX]

All those tasty fat hobbits. Oh how i wish i could wander the hills and dales, " and burrows " of the Shire.

Muzarg, Warg Stalker

[yellout22]

Excellent video. My favorite part was the time-elapsed night to day sequence. It just captures the true essence of the game's artistic look and design. There's another vid on youtube with a similar shot over Lake Evendim that I like just as much.

Thanks for making this video! - Mardoin, Guardian of Elendilmir

[Zamwyn]

Wow. Way to tug at my heart strings, I will never fall out of love with The Shire. Wonderful video!

[Loborian]

Superb!! I am thouroughly impressed by the exquisate scenery that you were able to capture in this video! I hope that you make more videos like this in the future! :)

[katespace]

Gorgeous. I want to live in The Shire! :P

What was the music? It's lovely.

[TheBerylknight]

The music was a good choice to accompany the landscapes and a lot of the scenes were finely chosen (my favorite was the water mill on the river at sunset) but could have used a little more drama from the hobbits. Fence running was the most interesting thing they were up to, and I think that proves my point. A glorified slide show, but a slide show none-the-less. Shame this game moves so quickly much of the rich scenery goes to waste.

[bubushum]

whats this song? amazing choice to simply very good vid!!! really hate how I can't play the game atm is untra high cos of so many players in the end-game places :P really hope to see more of this place if they follow on the mount deed stuff. ganna go here on all my hobbit chars and do it instantly :D

but please whats this song!!!???

[thomsenrox]

awesome video - I like the trastitions, very sturdy made - hope to see you make more from other regions :)

ps. Check out my HD lotro videoes... :)

[Rikitino]

awsome, before this movie i hate shire, after this....damn i love it.

thanks m8 for this movie, realy nice work, specialy 2:15 ....2:50...

stunning

[BethChainwrecker]

Oh what a fine job and thoughtful scenes...I really love it and so does my little Hobbitses on Meneldor server: Lizyanthia and Bethanie. WE salute you and thank you for sharing our lovely home with everyone!!

[picanol422]

Beautifully done! Hats off to you!!

Arthirus Arailius of Arkenston

[IMxFilms]

How did you record this video? I'm assuming FRAPS?

[moosedawg71]

nice vid - and GREAT choice of music - I have that album and it's one of my favorites!

[TheSmidgett]

The Shire ftw!

[Celeborth]

Super :D I love it Lotro Graphics is stunning when compared to other onlines :D

[BodyBuilderSteve555]

best game ever

[brokenURL]

awesome!

[kiminokoe]

fantastic video, absolutely visually stunning and a fantastic advert for LOTRO

[powerslayer94]

i want a new expansion !!!something that has to do with lord of the rings this time,,nice vid anyway

[HaMark123]

Hi CerebralSync, a friend of mine made a vid which is looking very similar to your one. I dont know if it is a coincidence but he also used the soundtrack "The blood of Chu Chulainn" and the cameramovement ist also nearly equal and he loaded up his film FIRST!

Here, watch this out:

"Lord of the Rings Online - Middle-earth" by Davos1982

You also made a good movie which expresses the entire beauty of middelearth but you didnt create this without inspiration i bet ;)

[balithag]

The beauty is real, no matter how virtual the world. Just wait till you get in and hear the nickering of horses, watch the leaves fall, and hunt the elusive rainbow.

[Aly1976]

aaahhh... Moonpetal misses her homeland sometimes... Excellent video, I still love this game!

[Silmarunya]

Amazing! When I first wandered the Shire, I was amazed at the breathtaking hobbit-ishness. And now I experience it once again. Thank you!

[highlandgirl]

Fantastic! Music selection was perfect, and went along perfectly with this wonderful video. I'll be sharing this on FB for all my friends who I'm trying to pull away from other games. :)

[HorseGal1590]

I really like this song to the vid. :) I think I heard it before...isn't from the Boondock Saints? Also, what a beautiful depiction of the Shire in LOTRO!

[Iavas87]

Loved it all except for the sped up sunrise, because it too clearly showed off the oddness of celestial motion in the game. Otherwise, great work, and very fitting music.

[Yurglarlotro]

best game ever, going back to it after taking a 2 month break :D

[ChriosM]

I always thought the Shire would fit that song well.. and I was right! :)

[CerebralSync]

Hey guys, thanks for the warm and encouraging responses! For those who are asking, the name of the song is "the blood of cuchulainn".

[captainhunter123]

Lovely, i commend you :)

Any idea what the name of the song is?

[tooZexy]

Very catchy tune that definately captures the spirit of the Shire, one of my most favorite areas of LOTRO!! Great job, excellent video.

[LunnaTheBurg]

Absolutely wonderful video! You did an amazing job! The Shire is my favorite place in the game, you showed off it's beauty perfectly :)

I especially loved the scene of the fence runner with the Shire rainbow in the sky behind him, awesome shot :)

~Lunna the Burg

Arkenstone

[CerebralSync]

@LunnaTheBurg

Thanks! That was my favorite scene as well ;)

[TheLithoniel]

Great video :D I love wandering around the shire but hate questing there. Am I weird for that? lol

[canadianlb]

/bow that was absolutely beautiful..thanks for the hard work..I've been playing for over 2 years and this reminds me why I fell in love with this game..Thanks again!!

[Joburack]

Nice video, Shire has always been the best area in Lotro. Sometimes, I can spend ours wandering around in it, looking at flowers, grass, bushes trees and other amazing parts of the scenery. Music fits perfect by the way :)

[pokemonfan357]

Nice music too.

[katistar4]

that was too freaking cute!!!! you just made my day!

[harleygs]

Perfect. Not like, love it. One of the best video ever created on the Shire.

[lotromusic]

Fantastic video. Very well done indeed.

[maniacc0]

Absolutely fantastic video! Great music, and my favourite shot has to be at 1:55, just breathtaking. Of course, the time-lapse sequence starting at 2:15 is great as well! Great video!

[tromtee]

The music is wonderful, where's it from? I've been thinking of playing the game and this video helps, hehe.

[lachimnamlok]

Very good video :)

[fuzzyqueen29]

This vid is amazing! How did you make it? Do you have to have special software to make a vid like this?

[AjAj32]

You should have finished the video with the music fading away, and having Gandalf humming the Road Goes Ever On while it zoomed up to Bag End.

[ErnildhirDunadan]

What's that song titled? Do you know where I can get the sheet music? :)

[umenihe]

Should I leave the vast reaches of New Eden space to return to my long loved home in the Shire? Hmm..

[Ewyndall]

@ CerebralSync - I hate you... You make me want to play LOTRO again. Reminds me when i played it, and spent more time wandering around the Shire rather than leveling :)

[CerebralSync]

@Ewyndall heh, i'll take that as a compliment ;)

[Magewildman]

This video just reminded me how gorgeous this game really is.

[CerebralSync]

@Magewildman I'm glad it did! lotro really is an exceptional game and the beautiful scenery really makes creating a video easy ;)

[Magewildman]

@CerebralSync The music is also very earthy and fits the video incredibly well. Nice work!

[CerebralSync]

@Magewildman Thanks guys! the music is indeed very 'rustic' which reminded me of the shire, in fact, the music was the inspiration for the video.

[RekzaFS]

Same here man.. I quitted for 1 year ago.. It's such an amazing game, but it was also very addicting to me. That's why I quit.

This video brought me back many memories from when I was a low level hobbit in The Shire :) great vid xx
