Trivia:
Originally aired at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards. It can be seen as an easter egg (hidden feature) on the Region 1 (North America) Extended Edition DVD of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) . To find it, go to the Chapter Selection section of Disk 1, scroll down past the final chapter (The Council of Elrond), and a golden ring will appear. Push play to see it, with an introduction by Peter Jackson. more

Hilarious!, 19 July 2006
8/10
Author: Evil_Magus from United States

This is a short that's far more hilarious than most feature-length comedies. It's a fairly strait-forward concept: It takes place in the Council of Elrond and spoofs The Lord of the Rings. It's brilliantly executed (along with actual footage from the film). It might have gone a little bit far at the end, but that didn't much matter. Jack Black gives us a memorable side-splitting performance as a hapless addition to the council who doesn't seem to be taking his duties with the ring with all due seriousness.

This is a must-see for all fans of Jack Black and The Lord of the Rings. But I'm sure that most everybody else will still find this funny enough (and short enough) for at least one viewing.
