      It’s frankly something we don’t need and nobody, NOBODY wanted. We already have over 2 movies with a bunch of Gollum content. WHO really wanted to see a story on how Gollum was captured by Aragorn as a feature length film?
      We’ve seen major issues today with Hollywood: they have no good ideas left, and even when they bring the right people to work a project it does not guarantee success.
      The subject matter of this film makes it evident that Hollywood has no clue how to properly execute the Middle Earth IP anymore, and their announcement that they want more films here after HfG shows they need something. Hollywood isn’t our friend, they don’t care about good entertainment, they are a business like any other (they’re looking for $$$, which is fine, but we need to stop making a big deal about projects they’re taking on today).
      Yes, there have been some good products to come out of entertainment in recent years, but they are few and far between. I’d say there is around an 85% chance anything that’s announced for production will end up bad right now.
      Honestly, with the state of the entertainment industry, and the history of what we’ve gotten both with Rings of Power and the Hobbit (timelines aside, Jackson could not save that series, and it shows it can very well happen again), I just want Hollywood to leave Middle Earth alone. I am tired of seeing IPs I enjoy get demolished by modern writing/movie making (i.e., Star Wars, Star Trek, Wheel of Time, D.C./Marvel, Ghost Busters, etc.).

    I'm going to be honest, I hate this. It feels like Skywalker syndrome, where we're just stuck making pointless movies about the same familiar characters over and over again. Tolkien's Legendarium spans thousands of years, yet WBs brilliant idea is to give Gollum a movie, or Aragorn a movie. What wasted potential, man. Having access to Tolkien's Legendarium should have been a golden goose, but this just feels like Disney's Star Wars unwillingness to do anything outside of what's familliar.

    None of these films/LOTR projects are needed. Most of the material people are going off of are notes/appendices information. The extended cut of LoTR is a stellar, complete series. These projects barely have enough material to go off of. I don’t care the “right” people are working some of this, it’s just an overt attempt to milk a franchise because Hollywood is creatively bankrupt.
    I have 0 faith that any project moving forward would be good. I was initially interested with the original Amazon concept of a miniseries-esque show wherein each episode covered things like “The Hunt for Gollum”. It was initially supposed to be short and nice filler for things that occurred in the Third Age.
    Now, I cannot believe this will be good. The Hobbit trilogy was a mess, Rings of Power is just fanfiction masquerading as a real Middle Earth series, and no other good content has come out since.
    Leave LoTR be please. Leave Middle Earth, only to reflect back on a superior, possibly the last great movie trilogy to come into existence in the last 30 years.

    I'm only lukewarm about this idea. Don't get me wrong, Gollum is a good character and Andy Serkis plays Gollum VERY well but an entire Gollum centric movie might be a little much. If they use the idea of showing the dual hunt for Gollum as seen from both sides it could be an exciting movie BUT the stakes aren't there. We know how the hunt eventually turns out. One thing is certain, it would take a lot of mistakes and other fumbling to make anything worse than Amazon has done.

    Hi there - New subscriber here. Have you tried the Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio? I'm no sci-fi gal and this had me hooked! The prose is exceptional with so many beautiful quotes, and the world building is like no other, and the battle scenes will have you reading pages on end in one breath. It's a Name of the Winds meets Dune kind of book. It's told from a first person POV so it's easy to digest and understand. And the protagonist goes through so much he'll break your heart, but he's also such a badass and you'll root for him like no other character. Please give it a try!

Regardless of the studio decisions to do stuff like turn a barely 200 page book into a trilogy, Jackson coming in later, etc. you have to acknowledge that this group is really only good at adapting existing source material, not adding to it. This Hunt for Gollum story does not have a lot of source material to it, so they’re going to have to fluff it up to make it a feature film. There are not a lot of good signs here and contemporary Hollywood trends do not bode well for this project.

      @@CapturedInWords i disagree. Just having the “right people” involved in the project does not mean it will be good. Look at Doctor Who right now. It was failing for years, and with the most recent season, they brought back Russel T. Davies, who was the man responsible for New Who, catapulting it into insane levels of popularity in the modern era. Yet, he being onboard only further ruined the series and now fans are most disgruntled than ever.
      The fact of the matter is this new Gollum film has very little source material to base it on. We have seen Peter Jackson and crew do amazing things with products that have existing source material, but not so much with inventing new material. Jackson didn’t save the Hobbit trilogy after studio interference, and much of the filler he put into that mess was not that great.
      I love the Jackson LoTR franchise, I think it’s one of the finest points of cinema history and especially for book adaptations. That being said, this whole situation reeks of Hollywood being out of ideas, and wanting to milk another IP into the ground.
