"You shall not pass. unconstitutional bills!"

[jhibbitt1]

[Kooovin]

[somethinrather]

[gutstotake]

11 people shall not pass.

[Eruaphadriel]

YOOUUUUUU SHALLLL NOT...BOUNCE

[kiwi1mango1]

If we were to draw a graph of his process, of his method, it would be something like this: Sir Ian, Sin Ian, Sir Ian, Action, Wizard, YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!, Cut, Sir Ian, Sir Ian, Sir Ian.

[mamadoritos]

y favorite part about this is that one minute he is goofy silly Ian and in an instant he's Gandalf [2]

[fslayer1290]

I just want to hug him! He's so adorable!

[mamadoritos]

He's amazing! What an wonderful actor. Altough I almost got deaf with that final line lol!

[bobdole9696]

Eleven orcs dislike this video.

[eLPHIE789222]

ive hugged him - most amazing man!

[Ermundos]

"The Dwarves delve too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the shadows of Khaza-dum....the Tennis ball."

[lynx655]

11 people shall not bounce.

[uhohlookwhoshere]

It almost sounds like he's a baritone opera singer when he says the line.

[aerouts]

very cool, cant wait to see him as gandalf again in the hobbit next year!

[piratchick97]

My favorite part about this is that one minute he is goofy silly Ian and in an instant he's Gandalf.

[doctorbeaumonte]

Eternally cool.

[klesc7]

10 people DID NOT PASS

[ZekeMahogany]

Ian, that's a SERIOUS CLOSER.

[btuncay]

when he said "YOU SHALL NOT.." i stood up and clap him infront of monitor.

[mrspatrickcampbell]

The idea of an ancient, nelly queen's 'privates' is enough to make us vomit!

[Kraken812]

BOUNCE!

[jackhartcup]

10 people have no life

[misteryry]

@jackhartcup Orcs !!!!!!??? lol

[kantlavar]

10 people thought he said "YOU! SHALL NOT! LIKE!"

[NotEnoughBooks]

Ian McKellan may just be my new God

[mirandasusername]

I was there when this happened!!!!



[mikekrnboy]

Ahh i know what he did there, you shall not bounce. Clever

[raimahk]

AWESOME. One of my fav scenes from the first movie.

[letaria]

OMG I CRIED =( IS JUST AWESOME

[Avidfan19]

ohhhh look at his package.....mmmmmm nice. :D

[Shiryutherain]

I wanna be able to stop tennisballs like that too

[TheShockwave]

@Shiryutherain When you're ready, you won't have to.  Wait, sorry, wrong movie.

[Clothahump]

Hilarious!!!

[glamrockprincess1]

Wow, I love him.... SUCH A LEGEND!

(from extras)

'Sir Ian, Sir Ian, Sir Ian

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

Sir Ian, Sir Ian, Sir Ian'

[AsheyCat]

This is probably the best thing I've ever seen.

[EclecticMuse4]

Why so badass, Ian McKellan?

[cphunk]

What's with the lump in his pants?

[johnnykool]

@cphunk That's his knighthood.

[drewsuschrist]

@cphunk balrog

[Vanderney]

What a Legend !

[Boratlon]

epic actor. he was made to play King Lear.

[NervXT]

I can imagine the dilemma of not knowing what you're yelling at.

I've only read the Hobbit and The Fellowship, but even so, I think he was the perfect choice.

[LockDown7]

Wow. The end right there. You can really see why he is Gandalf.

[Krijgsmetaal]

Anyone else got chills when he started 'YOU SHALL NOT ...'?

[peterthegreat86]

@Krijgsmetaal

Epic moment!

[tuckatangent]

@Krijgsmetaal Absolutely. Made me want to watch the scene, but my Fellowship dvd is missing. :(

[EmeraldSky33]

@Krijgsmetaal

Yes!

[Cromeman82]

@Krijgsmetaal

bounce? - meaning the bridge?

[RoseAnderson18]

@Cromeman82 err he means the ball.....

[deBurrows]

@Krijgsmetaal lol me too. Powerful voice and intense memories together.

[Benivey2]

But is it art?

[blackbellamy]

Holy package!

[bloodySunday77]

We might have the first Youtube video ever without dislikes!

(until some kid just clicks on it for laughs)

(haha, very smart)

(you just did, I saw you)

[simonx49]

lol the end was not funny at all lol

[xdeliciae]

@simonx49 Then why the lols? O_o

[simonx49]

@xdeliciae because it was hilariously bad :] which is endearing because of who it is

[Kezzybob]

@simonx49 And yet you used "lol" twice. Good job.

[tuckatangent]

Absolutely hilarious. Ian's shouting the line gave me chills. He's still got Gandalf in there, thank goodness. Jackson better be signing him for the Hobbit right this minute.

[XianL]

@tuckatangent I think up until a couple weeks ago, he was the ONLY actor signed for The Hobbit :P

[tuckatangent]

@XianL LOL! Yes. I still haven't heard "official" news on it, though. Lot of rumors going around saying he'll "probably" be back. But of course he'll be back. It's a nobrainer.

[XianL]

@tuckatangent I'd personnally incit a riot if he wasn't casted as Gandalf. It'd be even worse than the replacement they used for Dumbledore in Harry Potter.

[luchilenium]

@XianL Along with Andy Serkis.

The ONLY Gollum.

[balderdash4]

thanks ian

[crazymurdav]

@ianmckellen118'd here

[omazing2]

Hilarious!!!

[DanzNewzMachinima]

Ian McKellen... is THE man...

[philhumphrey2013]

I like the part where he says bounce.

[DarkApostleMatt]

win

[filmfan09]

I was there, got to shake his hand and take a picture with him. What a wonderful, patient, polite, and generous human being. I'm so glad that he came and ended his Q and A with this piece.

[Skippy4500]

Yes yes
