Alejandra (@Sick__66), Sam (@SamShotFirst), Harrison (@Play_Champion), Rockie (@RockieWarAntz), and Marcelo (@MarceloJPico) have completed The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and you’d think that’d be it. No more Middle Earth to talk about, right? Right?? Well, you’re wrong. Now our podcastship begins their journey through The Hobbit Trilogy with An Unexpected Journey! They talk about the first half of the first film, they talk about the cast, the weirdness, the good, the bad, and the orcs. It’s quite a… journey.

Alejandra (@Sick__66), Sam (@SamShotFirst), Harrison (@Play_Champion), Rockie (@RockieWarAntz), and Marcelo (@MarceloJPico) reach the end of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, for real this time, as they discuss the ending(s) of The Return of the King. From the Eagles to The Grey Havens, they cover the final moments of the trilogy, plus they talk about the Oscars and they all (mostly) get excited to jump into The Hobbit Trilogy in the second half of the series.

Alejandra (@Sick__66), Sam (@SamShotFirst), Harrison (@Play_Champion), Rockie (@RockieWarAntz), and Marcelo (@MarceloJPico) all learn that The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is such a big movie that it couldn’t fit in the allotted two-episode breakdown. They talk about the second half of the third chapter in the trilogy, all the way through the destruction of the ring, touching on the emotional climax, the many battles, and those damn ghosts. They save the discussion of the multiple ending for the third and final ROTK episode, so stay tuned!

Alejandra (@Sick__66), Sam (@SamShotFirst), Harrison (@Play_Champion), Rockie (@RockieWarAntz), and Marcelo (@MarceloJPico) finally, FINALLY talk about the one thing they and you have been waiting for: Elf Sex! That, and they talk about the first part of The Return of the King! From mispronouncing character names, modernism, kissing cousins, orbs, dragons(?), and a whole lot more! Note: This was recorded in July 2019; Alejandra on this episode was suffering from an upper respiratory infection but she’s fine right now!

Alejandra (@Sick__66), Sam (@SamShotFirst), Harrison (@Play_Champion), Rockie (@RockieWarAntz), and Marcelo (@MarceloJPico) dig into one of the best action sequences ever captured on film, the Battle of Helm’s Deep, as they discuss the second half of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. From mispronouncing character names, massless elves, the dourness of Sam and Frodo, plus a lot of Helm’s Deep talk, this episode has it all (pertaining to the second half of The Two Towers)!
