Getting back to the original question--knowing Saruman knew Gandalf had that ring, there would have to be a very good reason he didn't take it. Maybe he did hide it from Saruman, decieving him into...

After Tolkien effectively created modern fantasy, there was that small backlash lead by Michael Moorecock (who was also clearly influenced by Lovecraft as well as Tolkien). Now there's a guy who...

Credit seems to be going where it should all around. I just don't understand why a lot of people seem to be so down on Hugo Weaving . . . but Christopher Lee, now there's a guy I enjoyed watching. ...

I'm going to have to check out this bemused woman, but the laughing guard (or Laughing Guard as he will from now on be known) should have been in the credits. You don't crack up at Elessar's...
