 Here's my boy Poor Boromir, way of the world on his shoulders Yeah, that's it. That's the L. Robbie. Like you're not gonna touch it, right? Yeah. I was like, no, no Yeah, you want that shit and where you live don't think so every corner of the West by the blood of our people Are your lands kept safe give gondor the weapon of the enemy let us use it against him Did you not catch the power it's evil Boromir evil one ring answers to Sauron alone. What would a ranger know of this matter? He is Aragorn. You owe him your allegiance. Look at that, the fist legolas bro moment and like oh the resentment Boromir has for Aragorn is just old Anathor This is the Sildur's heir heir to the throne of gondor. Gondor has no key Over your feet Thanks, there's a lot of great things to point out in this scene Boromir is teaching them how to fight on the defensive He's teaching them how to block and to parry not how to attack so if they need to be in combat He doesn't want them like fighting offensively wants them to defend themselves. He's taking the position of the aggressor Gandalf we could pass through the mines of Moria my curse and Balin give us a royal You'd also argue that he's taking the position of interest in these two he He's connected to Merriam Pippin quite a bit. It's not arbitrary that he defends them at the end I would not take the road to Moria unless I had no other choice I love it. It's really relationship building. It's a nice Yeah, it's a nice counterpoint to his character as well because it would be easy to write him off as like one-dimensional of you know He's this Arrogant, you know proud warrior an unfortunately large amount of people come away from watching a Lord of the Rings thinking Boromir is a bad guy and a piece of shit. Yeah Now he's a good man he really is he was just a hero who's a hero who seemed more shit than any of these Dude his scenes gonna get to me this time around like it does every single time Everyone's so fucking frozen like what's he gonna do? It looks like my wedding ring for my first marriage Did you throw it into the fire? I probably should have It's on a chain and it acts like the one ring now. You can't touch it Can't touch it can't let it go Give the ring to Frodo And look he comes through he gives it back even if he molds a little bit off to a little bit of molding Yeah Said like a true cock I care a lot Tussle the head and yeah, what what we come away with that this seat is everyone being more suspicious of him And then he spots who did that for you it was Aragorn Yeah, if you had to leap over a gap like that it's not far, but when you're hundreds of feet in the air it's fucking terrifying Boromir he stops them protecting him Because all the goblins are scattering around on the other side now as well Yes, there is weakness there is frailty there is courage also and honor to be found in me Yes, strike out for Mordor from a place of strength. There is no strength Yeah, Boromir's he's You were quick enough to trust the elves In the shadows scared of who you are what you are no big important scene coming well all of the big important scenes are coming I will not lead the ring with an hundred leagues of your city. Do you think you have? They will find you listen just lend me it just for a totally give it back bro, and you will beg for death before the end This is the thing from his POV. This seems like the most right decision He's just a little hobbit. What's he like ever a little hobbit ain't gonna destroy the ring after everything Oh It's not your same It doesn't make any sense to let it just be given to a hobby it's like fucking give it over idiot And but he realizes a little detail of making the wood shake That paranoia as well So it gets you praising all your weaknesses and fears You go to your death Man, this is Boromir's low point. He's gonna come out of it This is dude when you get the context of who this man is like back in Gondor Arguably his best scene is I mean if not here it'll be in the the extended in two towers. I Like the him getting emotional over that. It's not just like what he did to Frodo It's that like he knows what happens when everyone else finds out about what he did Yeah, there's just a weakness has been completely exposed Oh, this is the shit you can't help it absolutely thrive in emotionally here he comes Boromir get in there buddy. Yes, no hesitation just charges right in yeah, I'm very epitaph fighting as well look at him That ass fucking throw Yeah, such a like the music just stops for a moment. Yep, and that's think I don't know This is just like this sense of this is it but doesn't mean you don't need to stop. I Mean to go out like this one day I'm going to force Jay to watch these movies with me and if he doesn't like it. I'm gonna put him in a saw trap This so the I'm done, but then sees them. It's like no fuck. I'm not done The endurance of a fucking human spirit. That's all this comes across to me He's not gonna stop until he absolutely can't go on the third arrow Which to me is the correct amount you don't want it to get extreme like a thousand arrows We also want it to be more than one or two. Yeah, it's just too many And yeah, I love what Pippin has to say about this to Denethor as well. It's recognized It all goes back to the scenes with Aragorn and you know the Council of Elrond, right? He's talking about man's ability to defend Middle Earth for you know on behalf of all the other races man's strength and courage like that's something That's present that's something to preserve that man could defend the world from darkness, right? Like that's his insecurities as a person that he whether he's enough to be that protector And of course his last moments of that of failing as a protector to never know if Marion Pippin are actually gonna be safe It's like a perfect microcosm of the overall insecurities He has a gondor in Middle Earth, but borrow me it to these two. It's absolutely tragic, but bloody brilliant Based on that arrow like a champ as well The first thing he says they took the little ones Yeah, I tried to take the ring from forgive me. I Did not see it because that's what he is at the core He's a protector of people has his whole role and that's where the insecurity stems from is not being able to fulfill that role I have failed you all You fought bravely. It is over the world of man will fall Is that simultaneous like I would have loved to have seen what this story would have looked like if Barmia made it No My sister to ruin but also like it would have been very interesting because it would have been like very important Yeah But there's something so important about him recognizing Aragorn's role as well Yeah, absolutely pitch-perfect wouldn't change a thing This man who's been brought up under the shadow of a person who's desperate to prove that they like control You know like Denith those got a lot of insecurities that I think really help inform Barmia's point of view Which is that they need to make sure they earn their right to be in essentially control of minister of them till you know The line of Kings returns and so like they not only need to inspire they need to be strong They need to be courageous need to show the rest of Middle-Earth that they are the ones that can protect They're the ones that have been given this responsibility and that they can pull through with it And they do Barmia being the one that we get told is is regularly like keeping Oskilius within the realm of men instead of allowing it to fall to Mordor and then being sent to go and grab this weapon That's gonna end it it's gonna destroy Mordor forever and he's like that's kind of exciting That's kind of invigorating he gets there and all these people are like we're gonna destroy it We're gonna had it to some fucking child basically and he's like what in the hell are you guys talking about and then you know Because he has respect for Elrond on the nature of the elves and so it's like okay fine I'll go with you and I'll ensure this to happen spends the whole time ensuring the safety of the fellowship But at the same time falling gradually to the temptation of the ring Which is something that I always find is a really interesting variable for all the characters to have to deal with that Ring that fucking rings bringing him down all the time and yeah, of course He breaks one of the little bits that I really noticed on a recent wash through was when they arrived But I forget the place where it's basically I'm on hand and they're all getting off the boats Everyone's basically fine and the camera hangs on him for a little bit and he's just fucking like he can't handle it anymore He's constantly thinking about it and he's like shaking a bit looking down just like okay Like it's all he's thinking about he talks about when we when we reach Galadriel right that she tells him don't worry like men will be fine Gondor won't fall and he only says to everyone's I don't believe her it's not gonna happen man It's like doomed we have to get the ring It's the most important thing ever and his his interest is desperation to get that thing It just represents the fact that he wants to save the world He wants to protect people and he knows he's gonna fail without it And then he has his moment with Frodo, which is his obviously low point which brings you right into his highest point Which is sacrificing himself to save two people and those three arrows that that the way that he goes down It's like one of the most heroic deaths in all of media always stuck with me and Yeah, the everything he says to our one I love that argon takes the moment to inspire him and tell him like it's gonna be okay Like right before he dies he tells him everything he wants to hear which is that man will be saved The argon won't let them fail and the Bormya did his job is the there's nothing to be ashamed of he did everything right sort of thing It's uh, oh He's great Yo, the Chad those that claim to oppose the enemy would do well not to hinder us the enemy his sense of duty Was no less than yours I wonder what his name is a lot to throw on us suddenly And that I think isn't an extended scene too. Yes. Yeah talking way He came from if he was relieved at heart It's just a good insight into faramir right off the bat. Yep. Ain't no simple guy Whoa, we'll make corpses of us or we'll make corpses of us all right there except the lucky Victory Royale what a blast of character so quickly. Oh, yeah, so quickly Something has happened to Boromir. We would have you tell us torn washed up upon the river banks cloven in two Where's my brother? I used to call him bro. I'm near bro, bro, and bro. I'm here For a bro, bro. I'm here. You think part of the concern Frodo there is like I hope you're not gonna share Values, exactly. Frodo didn't get to see what Bormya did. Yeah, that's right There's different information. You know if he didn't get to see the redemption story I like he did fan Helsing after this. Yeah, I'm 300 right? Yes Well, apparently he did fan Helsing because he wanted to go for the exact opposite character that he played in this and that he did I love Van Helsing I like it too, but the same level as this that armor is so good. There's no man boobs on it Yeah, it looks good. It's not overly complex. It looks good. God those pictures comparing this armor to the rings of power Armor is insane. It's yeah, that's that new and our stuff looks fucking stanky. Good speech More time for drinking Bro Sean being a such a good smile. Yeah, now when you finish say more mead wench and throw it on the ground Oh shit No, he's here Yeah, you're gonna love their relationship right before he arrives And there's just as obvious like Barbaean knows exactly what the dynamic is Denethor is obsessed with Boromir and Boromir. I fucking eat some too. He's like his ass It's like that Tolerance of it though the city would still be standing always you cast a reflection on me You give him no credit and yet he tries to do your will fucking love you Boromir. I know his uses and they have few Damn Like you are a dick Faramir is so good and all his deleted scenes too for which there seem to be a lot The one ring. Oh that look on his face. He just it. Yeah, it's like the Bollywood also the hope of like winning My place is here with my people not in Rivendell. It's so amazing Why would you get rid of it though? Good God, but if Faramir had gone to Rivendell instead What would have happened what would have happened Faramir is he's kind of got a purity to him He didn't take the ring send me instead a chance for that a mere captain of gondor to show his quality Faramir wanted the ring to protect gondor sure but so much of it was like I want my dad to fucking respect me I try so goddamn hard Maybe if I give him the one ring he will like me. Yeah, and then he's like nah the rings fucking evil You guys better blow it up This is shit it killed Boramir. Oh, yeah, it's a big deal when they Sam tells Faramir What Boramir did drove your brother mad? It's last time they ever saw each other You was it not to spotlight you but was it a dream you say that you thought Faramir was probably one of the Lesser awesome characters could it be because you were you're more familiar with the theatrical versions I mean it's gonna be partly that Yeah, I mean Let's be honest here. There is a lot of awesome characters to pick from. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's why it's using it's not Yeah, it's not so much like I used to shoot character and it's more You know up against the least the least best is the yeah. Yeah Not even like the least best but Like the lower tier of all I think he's I think he's one of the higher tiers I think he's really excellent and complex and you put him above how many people uh 18 whoa name them Oh You know that farmer guy That who gets fucking killed by the Nazgul uh that guy. Yeah, he's above him There's this uh those two guys and those two those four guys. He's above them It's just nuts man without those Faramir scenes this seemed means different things Yeah, it really like man understand that you got to cut stuff because you got to get it to a certain runtime for theaters but like Fuck man There's an irony to it because he does end up showing his quality wonderful I think Faramir and Frodo having a competition to be the weirdest right now Sam is the totally like the out of the loop one No Stop it. He's got to destroy it. Will you not help him? The ring will go to gondar. Ooh That's lame, but it's not the end. The ring drove your brother Matt That look that's subtle. Yeah, I guess to him And it is for Then it's for Faramir coming through. Yep. That's right. I mean, I feel like the scenes in osculia have to really inform this decision Did he show his quality? Uh, don't do this to me. No I was just starting to get over it. No I'll never get over it. Oh drag me right back in. He failed defending us from many foes Just that little quick shot where he kneel before Gandalf. It looks so good It's all very important to maintain the fantasy of it, isn't it? Is that impulsive pippin? But who feels honor? Very very very interesting as a choice that you would make Instantly the mightiest man may be slain by one hour of Boromir was pierced by many This was yours. Yes, it was mine My father had it made for me back before he hated me. I'm taller than you. Well, then Though I'm not likely to grow anymore except sideways Boromir was always the soldier Man. Yep. There's just so much going on. I think you have strength of a different kind And one day your father will see it or he won't or he will as he's fucking burning to death Yeah, I wish now that our places have been exchanged that I had died and Boromir had lived Yes, I mean there's not a huge surprise. He's kind of an ass since you'll rob the Boromir I will do what I can in his stead. That's his role in this film because we don't get to have shulmbin's Boromir We have him if I should return think better of me father that will depend on the manner of your return If he just had that full auto crossbow from ven helsling, he would have totally taken Osgiliath would have never fallen if he had the full auto crossbow especially with the holy water Oh the bonus. Yeah damage against you evil symbolism Denith or just eating like a fucking pig. I mean while all of these men riding out to their needless deaths Needless death is this crazy asshole. Yeah, and then when you add on the elements as well Right of Boromir and Faramir is like a big motivating element of this happening in the first place
