5 awesome facts about LotR you might have not known (Part 1):

1. And the first and only fantasy film to ever win an Academy Award for "Best Picture" is... *drumroll* "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" !!!

2. Instead of writing The Lord of the Rings trilogy, J.R.R Tolkien intended to write "A New Hobbit". It would be about Bilbo Baggins who spent all his riches from The Hobbit and wanted to go on another adventure. Luckily, Tolkien remembered the powers of the ring from his first book and decided to write about that instead.

3. Tolkien himself often mentioned that the War of the Rings takes place in the real world and that we are now currently in the Seventh Age. (How cool is that? You might be a distant relative of Legolas or Aragorn and you don't even know it, lol)

4: The budget of the first two The Hobbit movies is almost twice the budget of the entire The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

5: Samwise Gamgee (Sam) is cosidered by Tolkien as the "chief hero" of The Lord of the Rings.
