This was just too funny. I found this great little list over at BBspot via the good folks at Filmrot. As most of you know… Mr. George Lucas made some… lets say “modifications” to Star Wars with his “special edition” releases. Well someone took the time to imagine what would happen if George was given charge over producing a “Lord of the Ring: Special Edition”.
The thing is… not only is this list funny… I bet it’s all true. :)
11. Hobbit’s resistance to the ring is caused by the high number of Midichlorians they posess.
10. One hyphenated word: Jar-Jaromir!
9. Gandalf to set off fifteen minute fireworks display every time the party stops to rest.
8. “Help me Tom Bombadil, you are my only hope.”
7. All Orcs actually clones of Wormtongue.
6. Extra hobbits added digitally. Like, loads of hobbits. Especially in Mordor. Kids love hobbits, right?
5. Witch King hilariously eaten by Oliphant.
4. “It’s about this one guy, Gollum, and how he is redeemed through hard work.”
3. Elves have these really cool houses in the trees.
2. At The Prancing Pony, Bill Ferny shoots Aragorn first.
1. All poetry of original restored, complete with musical backing and endless CG dancers.
I love it. Come on guys… can you think of a couple more to add to that list? Come up with some good ones and I’ll mention them on tonights Audio Edition. Go go go!
