This adorable video makes an excellent addition to Air New Zealand’s more lighthearted and fun approach to safety videos shown at the beginning of every flight.
Kiwi filmmaker Taika Waititi has taken two Middle-earth fans and placed them in the middle of an Epic Journey, surrounded by Hobbits, Dwarves, Orcs and Elves, and some of them are the actual actors from the films. All the bases are covered, seat belts, electronic devices, life vests, etc, but there is a very definite Middle-earth vibe going on.
Filming was done on a plane or plane mock up, inside the Wellington airport and at locations all over New Zealand. And as the end draws near, it is clear this is part of the overall farewell to all things Middle-earth. Watch the Most Epic Safety Video Ever Made and then tell us how many guest cameos can you spot in the comments section.
