Middle-earth takeover of other stories ...

"Aren't you a little short for a storm trooper?"
[removes helmet] "I'm Bilbo Baggins! I'm here to rescue you!"
[ Star Wars, IV, A New Hope]
(The news that Bilbo has her R2 unit, AND ++Thorin Oakenshield++ sure gets the Princess moving...)

Witch-king hands Sauron the phone, pushing down the blinking line. The call is from Smeagol and we see both ends of the conversation.
SAURON
This is the Dark Lord. What can I do for you, Mr... ?
WITCH-KING
Smeagol.
SAURON
... Mr. Smeagol?
SMEAGOL
I was just wondering if you had found the "Precious" yet, Mr.
Dark Lord.
Sauron almost drops the phone. Witch-King sees his shocked expression...
WITCH-KING
I told you you wanted to take this call.
SAURON
(to SMEAGOL)
Alright. You have my attention, Smeagol. Can you tell me who the creature in the picture is?
SMEAGOL
Oh yes. The creaturein the picture is me.

Nice one..
Do you suppose that later in the same film we have:
[Gollum capering madly the One Ring at last in his Clutches.]
Gollum: We's king of the world, Precious!
[He slips and falls off the bowsprit into the ocean.]
