Grima Wormtongue becomes a movie director. He makes a film titled "Fellowship 9-11," in which he accuses Gandalf of having been the real mastermind behind all Orc attacks that have been blamed on Sauron or Saruman. Grima's explanation for this is to say that Gandalf is secretly a Big Oil tycoon, who wants to conquer and rule Mordor so he can drill it for oil. Then he makes a film titled "An Immolating Tooth," in which he claims to "prove" that the fiery nature of Balrogs is caused by global warming.
This is really funny and goofy but I think the original is a lot better. Modernized versions of old stories happens way to often and are often cheesy.
How about Eowyn getting involved with the feminist movement? The elves could also go into the ship making business because all the forests were cut down by the orcs and the Ents are the enviromentalist.
I don't see Eowyn starring a cooking show she is way more independent than that she is more likely to teach a self defense class. I don't see the connection between a preacher and youth pastor. And i see Merry or pippin more the youth pastor type and Gandalf or Elrond as a preacher.
