Comment on The Lord of the Rings spinoff the world needs right now isn’t Rings of Power or the Hunt for Gollum—it’s a film-length version of the Scouring of the Shire.

  Viggo is playing Aragorn!

  Viggo is now older than Ian McKellen was when he first played gandalf…!

      I’m a huge LotR fan (probably going to go see Two Towers in theatre tonight!) and am very much not looking forward to this movie, lol. I was reading Fellowship a few months ago and go to the part of the book that talks about what the plot of Hunt for Gollum is about… Aragorn pretty much summarizes the entire thing in less than a paragraph. It’s pretty wild.
