Colbert Writing Lord of the Rings is Cinematic Blasphemy

Stephen Colbert is officially writing a new Lord of the Rings movie, proving that being a superfan is now a substitute for actually having a vision. We are trading Tolkien’s linguistic majesty for whatever punchlines did not make the monologue cut. I have spent decades defending the sanctity of the frame, only to watch a talk show host turn the Grey Havens into a three-minute sketch. If the Orcs start doing political satire, I am burning my entire library.
