When the movies are over, Will the craze for Tolkien still be around? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

What I wished to express has already been said; obviously a number of the movie-fans will stop their obsessions in a few years. But those of us already loyal to Tolkien's works before the movies will (hopefully) still remain, so the craze will definitely be continued on.<P>It won't be easy to stop the Tolkien-fans since it's been around for more than half a century. I believe I'm speaking for many when I say that The Lord of the Rings, either book or movie, is the greatest epic of our age, and such epic will not die out that easily.

In this elvish sheath dwells the Blade that was Broken and has been made again. Telchar first wrought it in the deeps of time. Death shall come to any man that draws Elendil's sword save Elendil's heir.
