7. LotR: Fellowship of the Ring
When Gandalf arrives in the Shire for the birthday celebration of his old traveling buddy Bilbo Baggins, he first stops by Baggins’ hobbit home for a quick hello. As he enters the house, Gandalf gets a few laughs by stumbling through the home, even going so far as to hit his head on a low cross beam. The decision to go for some giggles was made in the moment by Gandalf actor Ian McKellan, who thought it might be charming. He was right.
