   _Probably_!?   
      
   Well, duh.... (which, in Blighty I believe is spelled "doh").

   Personally I am so starved for Middle Earth film footage that   
   I would pay money to see just about anything (even if no higher   
   production quality than _The Blair Witch Project_.) *   
      
   I don't think I'm alone on this. When a group of amateurs   
   decided to produce _The Hunt For Gollum_ free for viewing,   
   film-making professions emerged seemingly out of Hobbit holes   
   to donate their expertise pro bono.   
      
   * I'd even pay double if the story line was reasonably accurate.
