One does not simply walk into Mordor… you need to take a soap box car.

There And Back Again is The Hobbit. Bilbo's trip with Thorin to the dwarven realm of Erebor where they defeated a dragon. So being under a mountain instead of a volcano is correct.

I really think you should add more checkpoints even if they are technically not needed to stop any shortcuts. It’s just helpful to know if you’re in the green or should just abandon the run

For a frack like this that wouldnt work, in general its ok. You really shouldnt have like 5-6 checkpoints in a 40 or so second track MOST of the time. Very few exceptions

16:59 This would have been a perfect time to say "You shall not pass!" lol

Should remove the top of the pipe near the saws and add giant spider looking down from the gap. Then if you hit a saw it means you were caught by Shelob.

Awesome track aesthetics, one idea: make finish look like a hobbit's house

My new life motto --> 11:07 "You gotta take in on the inside quite a bit"

Imagine if this game had the option for collision. It would be a fun challenge especially in this course.

Hobbit / Lord of the Rings theme makes this my favourite track yet Also the hobbit holes turned out great!

@@wee11234 The title on the cover of the book is “There and bag again by Bilbo Baggins, added to by Frodo Baggins”, Frodos section is called Lord of The Rings however the book as a whole is called There and Back Again. Also no matter what the small details about the book, Kosmo added Mordor which isn’t in the Hobbit xD

Imagine a track where you can go into a sort of free roam area to find digits of a code and then, on a different run, go forward through pipes labeled with numbers to input the code you found

There are many factors stopping the eagles from flying into Mordor. 1. Poisoned Skies above Mordor. (Imagine volcanic clouds not being poisonous, the poisonous clouds immediately clear out when the ring is destroyed. The entire region of Mordor is covered from anything coming at it from above and was quite literally shrouded entirely in darkness.) 2. Eye of Sauron. (Immediate death sentence should it see them.) 3. Mordor was prepared for it what with all the ballista they have. (The entire mountain was lined with defenses to stop such a thing.) 4. The eagles would have to get close to the ground to drop the heroes off safely, they'd be killed under a ton of bow fire before they could do so safely. (The chances of the heroes falling and dying would have been high. There's also the possibility of the heroes getting shot outright.) 5. The eagles work for someone and aside from possibly owing Gandalf a few favors, they are not suicidal and are meant to be mostly watchers. They leave middle earth after the events of the final rings destruction. 6. Nazgul and Fellbeast would have intercepted them if they weren't dealt with. 7. Giant Eagles are not immune to magic, arrows and or other forms of damage. The war with Smaug decimated them by quite a fair bit. Most of the Lord of the Rings is entirely built around disabling the numerous defenses and drawing tons of attention away from the hobbits actively entering the 'Death Zone' on foot.

It'd've been epic to have a few more details, considering how long the whole journey actually was. I kinda thought we were gonna see the spider after you went up that hill. Epic track nevertheless. Reminded me more of Bilbos journey than Frodos

Dang I was quoting LOTR the entire race, but chat was hidden. Guess I was a fool of a Took 😅

I have only watched 7 minutes of the video and it is a great layout, theme, story. Well better get back to the rest of the video. Keep it up kosmo

This is something I don't think they use enough. The boosters that only cover part of the track, so you have to make sure you get on the right spot of the road to get on them.

LOve it!! you could add spiders before the entrance to Mordor !!!

Kosmo: Don't take the grass on the way back, cos it messes u up. Me: Oh i will take the grass on my way everywhere

Map needs a train- that way you could mash two books together for "Mordor on the Orient express"

"The axis came out of nowhere" yup , they sure did XD XD

Very nice and thematic track! Well done

Watching the build montage and realizing what you were building... Dude that's brilliant!

Beside the 1st person in the volcanic supposedly being needed to ease the difficulty, I feel like it probably also gives a more dramatic effect :)

One does not simply ride a Zeepkist into Mordor.

Loved the music in today's build montage!

Amazing track, really creative and well made.

> no sunflowers in LotR Honestly I thought it was supposed to represent that scene where Sam goes "This is the furthest from the Shire I've ever been, Master Frodo" and wasn't gonna question it at all lol

You guys should do a build where you each build a section and then it has a big jump into a different section that the next guy makes but its all one track

In The Lord of the Rings's world There and back again is a book that Bilbo writes about his journey to defeat Smog. Sens there were still blank pages after he finished his story Frodo wrote his advancer in it as well.

Interesting theme this time around, great video from everyone, though

A really cool track idea could be an F1 track so it’s fast and has some tricky sharp turns and shicanes to try and maneuver around

so you can't walk, but you can soapbox derby xD

Really cool track. Lord of the rings is such a good theme to make a track with

Honestly, Photomode should be disabled for the first 1 or 2 minutes of a loby so everyone gets to try the map without having seen what they shouldn't have. Someone should probably suggest that to the dev... Either make it disabled for a certain period of time at the start of the lobby, or disabled until someone finishes the map once, or passes through a checkpoint... or even a special checkpoint that enables it for everyone. It's kinda annoying how every time everyone goes straight to photomode instead of doing the track.

“Not trying to make a painful track” -Kosmo 2022

I mean, they could have just flown on the backs of the great eagles, but sure, soap boxes will work.

"There and Back Again, A Hobbit's Tale" by Bilbo Baggins is supposed to be Bilbo's telling of "The Hobbit," not "The Lord of the Rings."

the "hahaha" was scary

Yours was definitely the coolest for this one.

but but but ... why not fly back the entire way? u know, fin eagles

You should make painful tracks

I think your understand of LOTR is less than you think. There and Back Again is Bilbo’s name for The Hobbit.

hobbit was the mountain and the dragon and the dwarves you were thinking about the lord of the rings. so you were actually right about the "closed volcano".

This is great

Ah, I never knew Smoldor was a vol-cave-no >:P

The shire lord of the rings lol once I seen how the rocks looked like hobbit hole I started to think the shire, then when you named it there and back again that's when my guess was confirmed

I never got hit by the saw blades once :D

Food track would be cool

"The road goes ever on and on.-", "-and on, and on, and on! Strangers, wait'n!!!" Sorry, I got carried away there. You know LOTR is a Journey. Journey is a band. They sang "Don't Stop Believing". Everyone believed in Frodo. . . . AKA "Don't Stop Believing" is probably the entire LOTR saga wrapped up into a 3 minute song. ~Conspiracies!!!~

I have been to the hobbit set in real life and I'm in New Zealand 🇳🇿

Eagles wouldn't fly them across the world, just part of a trip, like hitch-hiking. You aren't going to get a person to drive you from California to Maine, unlikely they'd be traveling there just like you, as an example.

“Acshually, The Shire isn’t that close to Mordor” 🤓

There and Back Again is just The Hobbit on it's own, not The Lord of the Rings

Aw, it's based on the movies, not the books. There's no invasion of the Shire by Saruman :/
