The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim & The legacy of The Lord of the Rings [Part 5 of 5]

The final of five special episodes to celebrate this podcast's 300th episode, focused on J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy epic The Lord of the Rings, this episode goes into what happened after The Lord of the Rings - namely The Hobbit trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: the Rings of Power, and the various struggled with the rights, plus multiple lawsuits that were filed after The Lord of the Rings.

The possibility of losing the rights led to New Line and Warner Bros fast-tracking The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, itself an ambitious anime that needed help from 60 international animation studios to get finished on time.

This is the end. The everlasting legacy of The Lord of the Rings, from Tolkien’s stories, through each adaptation we’ve gone into, to this, the end of all things. It’s time to drop the One Ring into the fires of Mordor and think about how far we’ve come...

This episode is Part five of a five-part group of episodes. You probably should take a listen to the previous episode(s), if you haven't!

I would love to hear your thoughts on The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim & The legacy of The Lord of the Rings [Part 5 of 5]
