Above is the trailer for The Hunt for Gollum, a 40 minute fan-made prequel to the Lord of the Rings movies, and it looks pretty darn good. If you like the trailer, you can watch the full thing only online. I haven’t gotten a chance to see the whole thing through myself, but I can’t wait.

    It’s worth the 40 minutes and impressive for a low-budget fan production. But the plot’s a bit thin and there’s a fair amount of filler.
