It appears to be a comedy site. Read the other headlines.

As such, he probably won't get many e-mails.

This is funnier then that petition to rename " The Two Towers". And I still can't believe that some people thought it was serious.

I sure can, it's not that hard when you consider the shear volume and level of idiocy that gets posted and linked to here.

Shut the fuck up, any fiver who cares enough about the series to discuss it and read analyses of it, knows what's what.
Most fivers know that the plot was partially based in LotR and partially on Babylonian creation myths.

A more ironic article would be "Did the anonymous writer of Beowulfe plagerize LotR?"

No 'e' on Beowulf.



Frankly, I've always thought that people look for similarities where there aren't necessarily any.
