As an avid (though I wouldn't go so far as to say "voracious") fan of author J. R. R. Tolkien's work—The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, etc.—and many of the subsequent multimedia adaptations that have followed in the decades since, I was certainly intrigued by the concept of a biopic about the man who brought us Frodo, Gandalf, Smeagol, the One Ring, and the benchmark fantasy world of Middle-Earth that they inhabit.
