May anyone who capitalizes on the works of Tolkien be forever smelling of horse poo!

But seriously, I thought about it and came to the conclusion that we probably won't be seeing anything more than published works, like the Hobbit, which is fairly certain of happening, and the Silmarillion, which is a BIG maybe. (it would not take well to movie or T.V. ; there is no main character. It is set up like the Bible. It wouldn't sell to anyone except die hard fans, like us, of which there is a sadly short supply.)

So we are mercifully spared the Merry and Pippin cartoon, although I can imagine it. *shudders* Hi-jinks prevail.
