Middle-earth Conspiracy Theories Can't Post

We take a left-turn with this week's conspiracy:

What is the real cause of The Hobbit's filming delay?

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded b*****d with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

They are writing it off as a business expense, claiming they are scouting for locations.

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds, distributing swords, is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

Peter the Great is interfering from the Beyond, [In reply to] Can't Post

as he is incensed that such a great cultural achievement has been produced by an impostor, who has even dared to assume his name! And now there's yet another attempt!!!

As is obvious from the latest AP photo, he demands that his own script be used, (and intends to buy MGM with the Hermitage as collateral . . . ).

Thanks very much, Gramma, for the idea!! (See below--or above--or wherever new posts go . . .) // [In reply to] Can't Post

You know, with all the Bilbo casting discussions and hopes and arguments that have been going on, I think you've found the solution:

"Jackson Cast As Bilbo"
