Peter Jackson stunned the world when he first adapted the Lord of the Ring from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and proved to be one of the decade’s greatest epics and has had quite a number of imitators ever since. To drive the point home, Lord of the Rings has long been considered “unfilmable” by [...]
Lord of the Rings as directed by Peter Jackson in 2001-2003, proved to be a massive success and became a stepping stone for many actors and actresses to fire up or establish their careers in the film industry. Examples of these include Orlando Bloom becoming even more famous and taking on the role of blacksmith [...]
MGM or Metro Goldwyn Mayer has been around for quite some time already and has given us so many wonderful films to enjoy at home from the ongoing James Bond franchise based on some of the books written by Ian Fleming to the ever comical Tom & Jerry show created by Hanna-Barbera. Unfortunately, due to [...]
J.R.R. Tolkien’s work has always been one of the most popular titles of what we consider modern fantasy literature. In fact, it has gone on to codify what we consider “modern” fantasy with its wealth of demi-human races such as the stout dwarves, the fair elves and the savage orcs and no work of fantasy [...]
There are many actors and actresses whose careers take a turn for the best when they become part of an epic film similar to the way that Orlando Bloom became a worldwide heartthrob when he portrayed Legolas in the Lord of the Rings films or how Daniel Radcliffe became an international sensation when he starred [...]
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey proved to be one of the most successful movies of 2012 and the sales for home videos of the film proved to be large enough to earn a good amount for Time-Warner (the company in charge of selling and distributing home videos) despite the apparent recession that is a major [...]
The works of J.R.R. Tolkien remain to some of the most loved pieces of fantasy literature since their creation in the turn of the 20th century. Most of his works, especially those that would go on to pave the way for the fantasy literature we are all familiar with such as the proud and somewhat [...]
We’ve all come to love the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, most especially his great volumes The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. He went on to publish other works like the Silmarillion and the Adventures of Tom Bombadil all of which take place in the fictional world of Middle Earth. Tolkien codified many of the [...]
The Lord of the Rings film trilogy directed by Peter Jackson proved to be one of the most successful films in film history. It managed to top a lot of other movies in its time and Return of the King, released in 2004, easily beat Titanic out of the box office. It should be noted [...]
The Lord of the Rings trilogy was well-received when the films came out with Fellowship of the Ring in 2001, The Two Towers in 2002 and Return of the King in 2003. Many were pleased by these developments, especially those who were long time fans of the original epic by J.R.R. Tolkien as during Tolkien’s [...]
Well, no film franchise is ever really complete without its own share of bad guys. Heck, most horror films have their entire premise just based on one villain who haunts or outright hunts the protagonists for the rest of the movie or the rest of the film franchise. Anyway, when it comes to fantasy, almost [...]
J.R.R. Tolkien’s work in fantasy literature would modify the style and themes of the genre for generations to come. He gave people ideas on what nonhuman races would be like such as the elves which were Tolkien’s idea of a race free from Original Sin, the dwarves who are cranky and materialistic but nonetheless mean [...]

In all great films, there’s always something or someone who becomes a kind of icon for the whole franchise. There is always an image, if you will, of what the film is actually about or what may actually be in the film proper. In most horror movies, especially of the “slasher” type, it’s usually the [...]
Well, who doesn’t love bears? After all, some of the first plush toys are of course bears and they remain very popular to this very day. But then again, most people are also familiar with the damage that bears can do to both property and the human body. So does it really come as any [...]
J.R.R. Tolkien’s works have gone a long way in changing the fantasy genre for the 20th and 21st century and one can argue that he solidified a number of elements for how fantasy literature would be written in the modern age. Among these elements of course would be that of dwarves and elves, the most [...]
Well, we’ve seen just how important the wizards of Middle-Earth can be and how powerful they are when they decide to use their powers and unleash their wrath upon their enemies. Yep, old they may look but helpless they definitely aren’t. We’ve seen the conniving and vicious Saruman the White, played by Christopher Lee, as [...]
So we’ve seen them in almost every fantasy franchise, from Lord of the Rings, Dungeons and Dragons, World of Warcraft and many, many more. So what is it about these little people that have taken the world by storm? What makes these creatures linger so long in the imaginations and stories of fantasy writers everywhere? [...]
Okay, we all know that sex sells, that sometimes, in order for a movie to succeed, the leading (or at least supporting) actor or actress has to have some sex appeal in order to attract a larger audience and contribute to the film’s overall success. Of course, most of you know what we’re talking about, [...]
Middle-Earth became a worldwide phenomenon when Peter Jackson finally decided to adapt J.R.R.
