The Lord of the Rings Movies, 58 Billion Dollars an Episode?

Game of thrones is making 20 million dollars an episode. That compared to other major projects like stranger things season four at 30 million dollars per episode. The lord of the rings, hobet and tolkey and ip are all being acquired in this like, late night bombshell by embracer group. They're acquiring it all from the sa zent company, which has been the rights holder for the franchise since 19 76. It's a little bit of breaking streaming news. I'm glad you aske that question because i'm just different, because lord it like that's the right student to adapt that book's story.
