🌿 Happy Hobbit Day everyone! Today Sam is celebrating by building the LEGO Bag End set while Elliot dives into his brand-new Hobbit Encyclopedia - all while making time for a proper second breakfast, of course. A huge thank-you to all of you for following along on our Middle-earth adventures and making this community so special. How are you celebrating this most hobbitish of days? 🍂 Cheers from the Shire – Sam & Elliot
✨ First update from my new office! ✨ I (Sam) have finally started setting up my creative space. One of the latest additions is my freshly built LEGO Rivendell and it feels great to finally have it on display in the room! 🌿
This is just the beginning of shaping the office into a Middle-earth inspired workspace. More updates coming soon! ⚔️📚
🚨 HUGE Lord of the Rings NEWS! 🚨 Ian McKellen has confirmed that both Gandalf & Frodo will return in the new Lord of the Rings movie 'The Hunt for Gollum'! Filming officially begins May 2026 in New Zealand! 👀✨ We’ve just made a full video covering all the details - go check it out! 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uJ9K...
Who else is hyped for 'The Hunt for Gollum' 👀 - the new Lord of the Rings movie that will explore this time gap? Some big news about the film dropped earlier, and we’ve just made a video breaking it all down and you won’t want to miss this one. 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHkK5...
✨ A milestone we’ll never forget ✨
This week, Elliot came to visit which is a rare treat since we live 4 hours apart here in Sweden. We finally got to hold our 100,000 subscribers Silver Play Button together for the first time.
We started Middle-Earth Updates because we simply loved sharing our passion for Tolkien’s world. We never imagined it would grow into such an amazing community. Every single view, comment, like, and message from you has made this journey possible and unforgettable.
From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for supporting us and joining us on all these adventures in Middle-earth (and beyond). This award is ours to keep, but it belongs to all of you too. 💛
And while our journey here is far from over, we’re also excited to explore new worlds - including our brand new Harry Potter channel. ⚡
Here’s to the next chapter! 🏔️⚔️
⚡ We’ve launched a new channel! ⚡
It’ll be just like what we’ve done with Lord of the Rings – behind-the-scenes content, fun facts, deleted scenes, and more from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Thank you all for the amazing support on our main channel – we truly hope you’ve enjoyed what we’ve shared so far and found it interesting!
If you’re also a Harry Potter fan, we’d love to see you over there too: youtube.com/@PotterUpdates
Hey there everyone! We recently released a different kind of video - the Top 10 Worst Scenes in The Lord of the Rings. It was a tough one to make, trying to find the few flaws in such a masterpiece. But thanks to all your suggestions on our recent community post, we finally nailed down a list!
We wanted to ask you a difficult question - what do you think is the WORST scene(s) in the Lord of the rings trilogy?
Might sound as a strange question as we always praise the trilogy in our content (rightfully so) but we're working on a video where we wanted to discuss the things we don't really like in the trilogy and that we wish they could have done differently, or skipped, and we'd love to get your input on scenes you don't particularly like, either because they don't fit in the movie, stray too far from the books or simply wasn't executed very well - SHOOT!
What did you think of our latest video?🎬✨ We put a ton of work into making it as cinematic and enjoyable as possible - hope you felt it! Are you excited for the upcoming Lord of the Rings movie, The Hunt for Gollum, or still feeling a bit sceptical? 🤔 In our new video, we take a DEEP DIVE into everything we know so far about the story, characters, and what to expect from this movie.
🎬 Our brand new video is out now! The Lord of the Rings wasn’t just some movies - it was a miracle of filmmaking. From near-death experiences to wig-related drama (yes, really), we’ve rounded up 25 chaotic, hilarious, and downright unbelievable behind-the-scenes stories from the making of the trilogy! Go give it a watch!
