Typical Hollywood tripe. No guts no glory. Tolkein and Lewis were Christian brothers who worked tirelessly for the advancement of the Christian faith. The Ring trilogy is a masterpiece of Christian literature. The utter stupidity of this move makes it of no more value than a cheap confection.

I wouldn't go so far as to label the Ring trilogy as "Christian literature"

True it has many of the attributions and morality of Christian themed books but I doubt you will find it categorized in the Christian/religion section of any library or bookstore.

Any first time reader of the Hobbit or Ring trilogy will be disappointed it has no mention of actually Christians or Jesus in it.
