Remake of "Lord of the Rings" ! - - Includes my complete script

Mates,

Having seen the three episodes of "Lord of the Rings" directed by Peter Jackson, I've decided that this bloated set of computer generated is deserves a remake. This is in the interest of correcting the annoying and illogical aspects of the Jackson original as well as cutting out the numerous scenes contrived to unecessarily pad out the story and distract the audience with filler material.

Here's the complete script for which I'd appreciate comments:

OPENING THEME: ""

INTERIOR- BILBO BAGGINS RESIDENCE

BILBO BAGGINS: Frodo, it's my 113th birthday. I'm leaving tonight, so here's my Ring of Power. It causes obssession, and makes you invisible, but as far as I can tell has no other use. However, the evil wizard Sauron over in Mordor wants it.

FRODO: "Moredoor" -isn't that the place over in the Dale with great prices on both garage and entry doors as well as moat supplies?

BILBO: Don't joke. Sauron is a great big eye and in a really bad mood.

FRODO: Small wonder. Not having a body must really cut into your sex life!

BILBO HANDS THE RING TO FRODO

FRODO: O.K. I'll look after it. I think I have an old phone bill envelope for it. Say, this is a really nice ring!

ENTER GANDLOFF

Say, here's our old friend Gandolff! What it is dawg?

GANDOLFF: Frodo, you're in great danger. Sauron will stop at nothing to possess that ring even though he doesn't have any way to wear it and as far as I know, it doesn't do anything except make you crazy and uncomfortably invisible. Sauron is gathering a big army of these ugly monster thugs that are also very expensive to animate!

FRODO: What can we do?

GANDOLFF: Well, ithere's only one way to end the probable large scale regional conflict. You have drop the Ring into the lava of that big Volcano near Sauron's house.

FRODO: O.K. This will be an adventure involving thousands of soldiers, huge battles, and a personal quest that will almost fail in it's difficulty. Let's assemsble a set of 7 magical warrior friends and start gathering the forces. Then we will face impossible dangers on out months--long trek.

GANDOLFF: Not so fast. Waiting outside are a pair of giant eagles.

FRODO: The Eagles! They can fly anywhere.

GANDOLFF: That's right. It'll tale abut two hours, but we'll ride the Eagles over to Mount Doom.

FRODO: What about those noisy flying dragons the evil guys use?

GANDOLFF: Oh, I've got my magic "staff" which , when I want it to, produces bright rays that will kill anything. Of course I usually only use it when a battle has gone on awhile and everyone's had a chance to suffer.

FRODO: Let's go!

GANDOLFF and FRODO fly off on the bakcs of the eagles to Mordor and Mt. Doom. No one expected this. FRODO drops the ring in the lava and Sauron's tower falls over.

INTERIOR: BILBO BAGGINS HOUSE

ENTER GANDOLFF and FRODO

BILBO: Gandolff! Frodo ! You're back already? I haven't finished the sandwiches for my party tonight!

GANDLOFF: We had a tail wind on the way back.

FRODO: Can I have one of those beef ones?

BILBO: Sure, you derserve it! You're both heroes that will be spoken of for centuries to come.

GNADOLFF: No big deal really. All these magical powers and I still haven't had a date for 1100 years. Any ale?

BILBO, GANDOLFF, FRODO LAUGH

FRODO: Gosh! I'm glad that over! I"m a bit sore in the posterior region, but- thanks giant eagles!

FADE TO BLACK

THEME NUSIC: "THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC"
