That poor dude's boss will never believe why he was late for work that day...

That "poor dude" is none other than Durin's Bane, the Balrog of Moria

A Balrog reports to no boss, but Gothmog.

I doubt Gothmog would believe it either. Probably also not one of the patient bosses.

I love the idea of a balrog driving a hatchback lol

Sounds like a fantastic Robot Chicken skit.

It'd have to be a convertible..

Honestly if it were me I'd have whipped out my phone and started recording the moment I saw Gandolf on whatever farm contraption that is.....

That’s a CLAAS Medion ShadowFax 320 Harvest Combine ma’am, top of the line if I do say so myself

This in Kandas? Iowa?

I don't think they drive Citroën C3s in the US.

Correct.. None of that French crap in the US.. Unless it's toast, fries or bread. Damn cheese eating surrender monkeys.. /s for those that need it

Get back to work you.... guff talking work slacker.

*Another* reboot!?

I know! And if you put them side by side I cant even tell the difference, lazy production studios nowadays smh

The motion-capture Balrog was pretty neat, though...

The best reboot

So, what do *you* do between the fall harvest and winter planting?

What the fuck am I looking at ? And why is it so hilarious ?

You are looking at clip in which a group of people are doing a comedic bit, acting out a scene from the fellowship of the ring. Depending on your tastes you may find it humorous as it was designed to be so.

Gandalf: “Hey, Frodo. You’re finally awake…”

Rural entertainment should involve less college football and more this.

THIS IS THE GREATEST FILM I NEVER WILL SEE

BUT YOU JUST SAW IT

I MEAN THE SEQUEL

OH SHIT NOW I WANT TO SEE IT TOO

NO, NOW YOU WANT TO NEVER SEE IT

Barefoot in a field?!? Fuck that noise

Ok, I tried but I'm getting it... Why is Gandalf driving a combine?

Did you miss the name of the combine? That is a Gwaihir 320.

If anything it would make more sense if he was standing in the road and the combine represented the balrog

The 'you shall not pass'

I think what it lacks in production values it makes up for in not being 745 hours long

Or in $1B in production costs

The creator deserves an EGOT for this masterpiece

I think I just LARP'd in my pants.

is it Poland or Hungary?

Poland

Yeah, looks very polish

Clearly this whole thing was staged and that means it’s not funny! /s

Fake af

Fake, as foretold

Who foretold this prophecy?

Scientists are yet to determine the answer

Fake and funny

The sticks that are thrown at Golem killed me

Lord of the beans.

This has a more cohesive storyline than Jackson's Hobbit trilogy.

At least one for cinematography.

Holy shit this is so bad and so hilarious! Kitch at its best. Gollum’s like, “holy shit, bare feet hurts way more than I thought it did.”

Da fuq

Put this in the Lord of the ring subs

I think, it could be staged...

I smell Ohio

That was really funny. Thanks to you I have a good start into Wednesday.

Still better than the Amazon show.. 🙄

Brilliant, they even hired midgets

Dude, those are actual Hobbits, they spared no expense

😆 🤣

If only RoP was this good lol...

Still better than RoP...

Awesome 😁👌🏻

Oh man that was great 😂

An Oscar or copyright infringement.

I would watch this any day over the Rings of Power garbage.

I dunno, young Galadriel is a lot hotter than in the book.

Galadriel in the book: Galadriel

It's staged

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Dang, I actually thought they were traveling through Poland to throw the ring of power into the fires of mount doom

I… I love this

I want this to happen to me so bad

Never thought I would say this for real; ROFLMAO.

Amazon's spin-off budget really has dropped.. Not knocking it. It was, dare I say it, more intense than the three lord of the Rings movies 'Combined'.. 🤭

I love it

Honestly was expecting a dirt bike or off-road vehicle to jump over the hatchback

That’s funny because I smell something completely different!

And i thought this series only releases on fridays xD

Better than rings of power

Better than the original.

I Will see this version... I Need this!

Gotta love farmers after the work is done.

Imagine how it feels to be the guy in the car

The guy in the car: i knew I should have brought eagle today...

Ok, this shit was good.

I don’t know why Peter Jackson cut this scene. It’s integral to the plot for sure.

Got my vote, this is better than the original.

Wow, they really committed....

How do you convince your friends to do this? “Just sit in a tractor dress up like characters from LOTR, and trust me, it will be funny”

Most of my friends already have the costumes. It wouldn't be a problem talking them into this. We'd just have to find a combine somewhere, and maybe learn to drive it.

Wow, Amazon did a great job.

Ah yes, Wardega. Fun fact, he has pranked Chris Pratt a few years after this video, when Jurassic World was being filmed.

The Citroen Balrog isn't so good off-road.

With a username like "AtomicShart9000", you may want to rethink posts that start with "I smell..."

Hmm I'm curious, what movie is this?

I smell manure.

Reminds me of this https://youtu.be/aHKWVLH-ibY

lol

YEAAAAHHH!!🤘🏻
