It's a bit depressing when this begins to happen. Lotr is a huge movie, and sure everyone in Hollywood knows its big, but if it got turned into a fashion trend by celebrities, it would take away the identity of true Tolkien fans, if you follow my meaning. To be seen out in the street wearing the One Ring now suggests your shelves are crammed with nothing but Lotr books and a 100-strong pile of cinema ticket stubs from all your viewings of the film. But if more celebrities went all ringy and elvish, people would just think you were trying to be like them, when you are in fact a total Lotr nut and showing your dedication to the books.
Kind of long-winded and not very well explained. But I hope you understand my point.
