The Lord of the Rings

In October of 1937, Stanley Unwin of George Allen & Unwin informed J.R.R. Tolkien that sales of The Hobbit had exceeded expectations and "that 'a large public' would be 'clamoring next year to hear more from you about Hobbits!'". Tolkien's initial reply included the comment that "I cannot think of anything more to say about hobbits. Mr. Baggins seems to have exhibited so fully both the Took and the Baggins side of their nature...." (Letter 17, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien).

Xenite.Org has provided the most complete coverage of Lord of the Rings news and Hobbit movie news since February 1998.

The Lord of the Rings movies
· Peter Jackson, with funding from New Line Cinema, produced three movies based on J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings". Filmed entirely in New Zealand, and starring actors such as Elijah Wood (Frodo Baggins), Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn), Sir Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Liv Tyler (Arwen), Orlando Bloom (Legolas), and Christopher Lee (Saruman), the movies approximately follow the three volumes of The Lord of the Rings with which most Tolkien fans are familiar: "The Fellowship of the Ring" (December 19, 2001), "The Two Towers" (December 18, 2002), and "The Return of the King" (December 17, 2003). Xenite.Org has been keeping fans informed about the progress of the movies since February 1998, longer than any other LoTR movie news site. We are also home to some of the best Tolkien and Middle-earth forums, fan fiction, and commentary on the Internet today.
