If disney does what disney usually does, LOTR will be dead to me.
Who cares what any of the movies do? The LotR is originally the written work. The books are the substance.

I have listened to these at least once per year since 2015 (holy smokes, that’s a decade!), and they are still the best audiobooks I have ever listened to. They utilize music and sound effects from the movies, and Phil has an uncanny ability to replicate many of the movie star’s voices. I cannot recommend it enough!
