LORD OF THE RINGS: FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING\nA shy young hobbit named Frodo Baggins inherits a simple gold ring. He knows the ring has power, but not that he alone holds the secret to the survival--or enslavement--of the entire world.\xa0 Now Frodo, accompanied by a wizard, an elf, a dwarf, two men and three loyal hobbit friends, must become the greatest hero the world has ever known to save the land and the people he loves.\n\nCraig and Alan kick off a month long look at the Lord of the Rings starting with guest Valerie Cameron (@moviesmakeus on twitter) as they talk about the defense of Boromir, how the internet shaped the trilogy, the gleeful lack of Tom Bombadil and the movie \u201cLord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring\u201d on this week\u2019s Matinee Heroes.\n\nShow Notes\n\n\n \t\n1:05\nCraig, Alan and Valerie jump right in and discuss "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring".\n \t\n59:27\nINTERMISSION - Contest rules:\nWe\u2019re celebrating this great series of podcasts by giving away The Lord of The Rings Trilogy: 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray set.
