Yeah, I just heard about that today. It's so bizzare. I have no idea how they can pull that off....

I didn't know about this till I read your post. I'd be curious to see how they do this. ;)

Sounds odd, but interesting. Although... I'm reminded of that video I once saw somewhere of Leonard Nimoy singing "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins". That SO freaked me out. And not in a good way.

I'm never sure if anyone is joking. :LOL:

But seriously, it could be good, but I doubt it. Can you imagine die hard Tolken fans liking a musical version of their favorite stories?
 
It really doesn't have to be bad. Some musical adaptations of treasured books have done quite well and are really, really great: i.e., Les Miserables.
