You may already know about this, but there's an edit of Fellowship of the Ring where Sam says this line every time he takes another step. It makes the movie over 9 hours long.

If they had snipped it down to just him saying those words instead of the whole exchange the joke would have landed even better.

Hehe have you seen "version" of the fellowship where every time Sam takes a step on screen it goes back to that moment in the movie? I watched it for like 30 minutes just in awe that someone took the time to create it
