The Scouring of the Shire was an event that changed the Hobbits of Middle-earth forever. Not only was their homeland ransacked by an industrious wizard and his ruffians, but the Hobbits were forced to fight to regain the Shire. Thank you all for watching, let me know your thoughts about the Scouring of the Shire in the comments below!As always, a great thanks to the online artists whose visual works made this video possible! If you are one of the artists, please let me know and I will post your name and a link to your work in this description!

When Saruman died, the grey mist rising from his body first turned to the west, before a wind rose blowing it eastward and dissipating it. So in essence, Saruman's spirit wanted to return home after the death of his shell, but got denied access to the eternal lands from whence he came.

Btw I want a hobit house, it's my dream home but of course big enough for my fiance who is 6"5 (I'm 5"3 so no wonder I love it other than it's beautiful and cozy) and better made then most underground homes which alot of the problems with them could be prevented if you build them on the top part of the hill and not in the middle of lower. You have to worry about leaking, cracks, and temperature and etc I've seriously looked into it and no one has made an actual livable replication that doesn't have these issues and doesn't look like it's from some stupid sci fi movie. SMH I just want an exact looking hobit house that isnt a death trap and insurance will actually cover without losing at all the beautiful look.

It was too much.. kind of ruins the happy ending too. I agree though yes. Unfortunately, mainstream viewers still think the lotr trilogy was too long as it was already when it came out. Most films didn't review well if they were over 90 min long. Now that's not the case at all. Lol. Marvel movies anyone? Sadly the hobbit was made into 3 movies and maybe that's how the lotr trilogy should of been 9 movies long. Yes? Haha I would watch.

I just finished listening to LOTR on audiobook today (a fantastic way of experiencing the story by the way, highly recommended!), and after seeing this video I was just thinking how different things may have ended in the Shire had not Frodo, Sam, Merry, & Pippen gone through everything they went through in the War Of The Ring. Had they stayed as nothing more than normal peace-loving hobbits rather than becoming the warriors they became it's unlikely that they'd have been the ones to lead the uprising and overthrow of "Sharky" and his army of scoundrels & half-orcs. The Shire would have likely suffered far more for far longer as it would probably have had to wait for someone from the outside to fix things, King Ellesar for example, and without Lady Galadriel's gift to Sam, it would've taken far longer to recover from the destruction as well.

First, you cheer the Hobbits on into battle against Sharkey's men. For they are getting their revenge for what was done to their beautiful homeland. But then, some of the Hobbits die, their laughter and joy never to be heard in Middle Earth again. Evil comes home, even into the beauty of the Shire, and they will never be the same, no matter how hard they rebuild or try to heal. Frodo and company sacrificed so much to protect their homes by going to Gondor and Mordor. They came home to more of the same, and the Shire forever sacrificed it's innocence. It really is a profound ending to the tail.

Some things are worth fighting and even dying for. The hobbits are initially represented as being almost childlike in all the good ways. But children must eventually grow up, too often in the shadow of tragedy. This was Curumo/Sauruman's final act of betrayal against the Valar who had sent him to contest the growth of shadow of Sauron and against the children of Eru Iluvatar that he was meant move to beware their peril; not to rule by open displays of power, but to advise and persuade (re: Unfinished Tales, part four, ii The Istari). In the end he perished at the hands of one of his own slaves and his spirit rose like smoke from a fire only to be dissipated by a cold wind from the West into nothing.

I think you missed an important detail: the mist that rose up from the body of Saruman at first attempted to turn Westward, but a wind from the West itself dissipated the mist. To me this was a judgement from the Lords of the Undying Lands upon Saruman for his treacherous ways and if the damage he wrought on Middle Earth when he was supposed to be a guardian and teacher.

I have always argued the scourging of the shire was Tolkien showing the growth of the fellowship.

Then rebuilt the shire and were leaders of hobbits.

It's what the kids are calling an Easter Egg in LOTR. Remember when Frodo and friends first get to Rivendell. They meet Elrond, who comments that he admired Bilbo and thought him unique among hobbits until he met Frodo. I can't argue whether the Scouring should have been in the movies, but it's clear that the chapter meant a lot to Tolkien and on such matters, I trust his judgement. Remember what they said to Fatty when they pulled him out of jail "you should have come with us." It seems that JRRT is telling us that dodging hardship isn't always possible, so you might as well do the right thing.

@@BigBWolf90 Remember when they are coming back to the Shire, Merry makes the comment "it's like waking up from a dream" and Frodon replies "to me, it feels like falling back to sleep." The Scouring was not hobbits coming in to their own. It was Tolkien's showing that the Shire is part of the world, whether or not it's population knew it. Pippin saw Minith Tirith in flames, but that was his adventure. For Bergil and Bergeron, it was their home(ish). Tolkien feared that the reader would pull a Frodo and "just go back to sleep". I am not saying the reader has to like it. Not saying LOTR doesn't makes sense without Scouring. I just think it's a valid and useful part of the book.

I don’t mind it not being in the film. I love the chapter in the book, and seeing the hobbits take back their land, but the way PJ did the ending in the film was more fitting. The four hobbits return to their home, each changed with fancy new clothes. They go and sit at the Green Dragon, look around, and see how none of their fellow hobbits know of what was going on for the last year or more. So they quietly just clang their tankards together for what they all went through and saving their homeland from being destroyed by Sauron. I like the more quieter way it ends, with Frodo narrating how can you go on with a normal life after what he went through, and then the big emotional moment at the Grey Havens. Having another battle take place after all they went through in the film would just be a bit too much. Again, works for the book, but might not translate as well into film.

The ending in the movie is actually much more accurate to the feeling WWI veterans like Tolkien felt after the war. So in a way, the movie's ending is still accurate since the book is a reflection of Tolkien from both World Wars (While the movie is more reminiscent of WWI veterans feeling, the Scouring of the Shire could also be a symbolism of how the WWII veterans are helping the rebuilding process post-war era)

It is interesting that Saruman, out of all the places in Middle Earth he could have fled to, he chose to sack the Shire. Basally after Helms Deep and the Ents sacking of Isanguard, Saruman knew he had failed his new master and perhaps realized he had backed the wrong side. But instead of trying to atone for his crimes, the wizard's hardened heart to turn to vengeance.

All those complaining this was abridged in the movies, as much as I love the Scouring, it only makes sense you would leave it out. There are some things you can get away with in a novel that really do not work in a screenplay. The main focus was The Ring, its journey and the war around it. You had a truly *massive* epic climax after nearly 3 hours. You don't then start a whole *new* story, with new characters, new stakes and a new build up to a new climax. The Scouring would require a whole movie on it's own, and dramatically, it's a huge left turn diversion. Besides, it's good theres parts left out of the movies, as that allows their discovery in the novels.

Them returning home to the shire still being the same while they are forever changed was a powerful change I loved.

Do you think that Saruman looking to the West as he was dying was his attempt to rejoin Eru but the wind was the creator’s rejection of the traitor, casting him into whatever darkness was waiting beyond “God?” (Might have forgotten the details but I’m pretty sure there was reference to that lol)

With rolling hills and fertile lands of green Hobbits enjoying themselves with food could be seen But during 3018 the Sackvilles gave lands to the south Lotho the pimple other hobbits called him by mouth The Brigands plundered the food and pipe-weed And much evil was done through their hash deeds Bagshot row was made a quarry and the party tree cut down A bigger mill was then built that polluted the once lush ground The waters were murky and the whole place now stank The whole Shire was turned brown and was now very dank A man named Sharkey then came up and took over the place He wanted nothing but suffering for the entire Hobbit race Then the 4 hero hobbits would finally come back Much courage and stoutness their hearts did pack Marry roused many hobbits to him with his silver horn Mary and Pippin with weapons and armor they were adorn The Hobbits had gathered to clear their land Arrows, axes, and pitchforks they had in hand A trap they did set for the brigands at Baywater They ambushed them and it was nearly a slaughter Frodo and his gang went to confront old Sharkey It was Saruman who was acting just a snarkey A curse he made should he die by anyone in the Hobbit clans Frodo let him go even when the wizard tried to kill him with his own hand But Grima had enough when the wizard kicked him in the face His throat Grima sliced open and the Hobbits showed him no grace The Hobbits then set to work rebuilding their home The Shire healed quickly from elven soil Sam had sewn Lush berries with cream the Hobbit's bellies were full to near bursting Blonde hair, once rare, would then come to children of the Farthings.

“The fires of Isengard will spread. And the woods of Tabrune and Buckland will burn. And all that was once green and good in this world will be gone.....There wont BE a Shire Pippin” I’m actually glad they didn’t include this part in the film. For one thing it would have been another 2 hours or so, but mostly because it would have been too sad :( Tolkien was similarly devastated when he saw the affects of mass industrialization upon his home land. So clearly this part in his tale hit harm for him. But in the end the long and perilous journey that they endured with the ring and Sauron set them up for Saruman and dealing with his shenanigans. That’s an encouraging thought at least :)

I think this is really what cements the Lord of the Rings as a classic. The Scouring of the Shire and the aftermath turn it from a very good, but ultimately inconsequential fantasy epic into a modern war story. It shows how war does not just hurt the protagonists and rando soldiers and townspeople and how it does not just go away with the war itself ending. It affects everyone, it's drawn out and messy and it leaves scars on the land and the people that never truly heal.

I love the mercy he tries to show Saruman, and other who surrendered. Its so sad how little regard he ends up receiving in the Shire.

He was a distributist and firmly against both capitalism and communism, because it was capitalism that destroyed the ethnic diversity and the traditional life style that still existed in the rural places of Europe prior to the 1890's when industrial farming took over and that destroyed nature and communism was anti-religion.

One of the things that alienated me from Scouring of the Shire is that it felt like it was Mr Tokien's personal "exit from purgatory" rather than a proper closing slope to a novel. It's especially highlighted because they literally run into Grima Wormtongue and "Sharkey" on the way back from Gondor and, pace-wise, make it seem like that's the last of them.

Excessive laws and taxes are passed and populations disarmed so those Sharkeys and ruffians in charge can live it up, not concerned about the hellholes they create in the process.

It is sad that some of the Hobbits died, but I read this section feeling hyped for them. The new courage, leadership and strategic skills they picked up during their journey put to use in their home. The Hobbits could defend themselves and didnt have to be bullied. The Shire was quickly overrun by Saruman, because of their passive nature, but THESE hobbits were having no part of it. Some had to die in the fight sadly, but that's the price of defending your freedom sometimes. It also helped that Merry and Pippen were a little taller ;)

As much as I would have liked seeing this in the live action adaptation, it wouldn't really fit with the resolution in Return of the King. The Scouring would have interrupted the final scenes showing Frodo's discomfort with returning back to ordinary life while his companions did. Wish they kept Saruman's death in the film release though. It was a nice touch we saw bits of the events if tea Scouring in the way Saruman died in RotK and the Mirror of Galadriel though.
