It's great too, because an educated wizard never uses his magic unless he absolutely needs to. Can you imagine if Gandalf was pulling some Balrog-esque shit in the Shire? Hobbit corpses, hobbit corpses everywhere. So we see as the video progresses that the wizard is getting frustrated beyond belief because he isn't getting the attention he is trying to command. He's a small guy, and the smaller guys don't usually get to command attention, they have to go the extra mile, sometimes they have to do something BIG.
Magic is pretty big...
