Tropes:
- Answer Cut: Gandalf debates with himself what to do now that Bilbo has entrusted him with the One Ring: "I have two options: I could either consult the Book of Infinite Knowledge to protect the poor and the weak from evil, or..." Cut to Gandalf smoking weed.
- Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: When Gandalf asks Bilbo for more drugs, we get the following list:
Bilbo: What do you need? I can get you anything: Speed, weed, crack, heroin, LSD, ecstasy, peace, shit, cocaine, jelly babies...
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Happens several times.
- Child Hater: Gandalf wasn't trying to amuse the hobbit kids, he is just a bad shot.
- Cluster F-Bomb: Bilbo reacts rather strongly to the prospect of having to give up the ring.
- Gag Dub
- German Humour
- Shout Out:
- Both "Sinnlos in Mittelerde" and "Jelly Babies" are references to that other German Gag Dub.
- The reference to 8mm Bilbo gives while watching with Gandalf the preparations for Wacken note World's biggest Heavy Metal festival (supposedly), which takes place near the village Wacken in North Germany..
- Straight Gay: Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf.
Frodo: Gandalf, I love you!
Gandalf: Hahaha ... poof.
- The Stoner: All of the characters, to varying degrees.
