Description

To celebrate the release of The Hobbit, two Lord of the Rings super-fans, Kerry Shawcross and Chris Demarais, attempt to walk over 120 miles across New Zealand from the filming location of Hobbiton to the real life Mount Doom in only six days. Documenting the entire journey on video, the two Rooster Teeth staff members sleep on the ground, climb mountains, and of course, dine on Lembas bread in their quest to prove the one does simply walk into Mordor. Now in true Peter Jackson fashion, watch the complete extended version of their epic journey. For the first time, see the wannabe hobbits as they train for their journey, plunder porta-potties in the wild, and fall apart on Mount Doom. With over 15 minutes of never before seen footage, the extended version of A Simple Walk Into Mordor shows what really happened on the world's most idiotically nerdy adventure.

    I went into this thinking it was sort of going to be like most of Roosterteeth's stuff funny, interesting, and a little nuts. Tragically it leaned almost 90% to the nuts category. There were some good moments but by the 20 minute mark it becomes "Watch 2 Geeks Try to Get Fit" and doesn't ever try to get any better. I almost would have been happier if someone had re-eddited it into a found footage horror movie. Certainly had some areas where it could have been done really well. For six bucks and only an hour running time, it is not worth your effort.
