      But it's a privilege reserved only for him: making a clip out of it on the very set starring himself, with the actors and the director of the original movie appeared as cameos, had it aired and seen by thousands, and made many tolkiens' fans like me super jealous

If he was actually coerced, he firstly probably wouldnt have acted that way and even if he had, he wouldnt have agreed to put nearly as much effort into his role as he did. He got fully in costume and also agreed to lines basically mocking himself, if he didnt want to do this, he could have done far less.

    Peter Jackson’s first movie “Bad Taste” is an absolute must watch, he wrote/directed/stared in 3 of the major roles, filmed in South New Zealand in the 80s and shows the real Kiwi life without being overproduced by mega Hollywood budgets. As an American born to a NZ mum I found this movie in a dumpster in the back of a licorice pizza record store and it changed my life! Mum thought it revolting and wanted to stop me from watching it at 12yrs old but AHHHH HAAAA Mum this movie was made in New Zealand! “Oh! Well then you can watch it”.

Stephen has done so much keeping us all sane in these troubling times, so glad he got to take a break and make this - really grateful

      He really is super nice.

Then he held the door open for me as I went inside the building. I was just some random girl he didn’t know. So sweet.

Suddenly, I hear a voice from outside: "F**k it, I'm going in!" - It was Elija Wood. Just went in there and saved me and 4 orphans. When he came out of the building, everyone clapped. It was the best day of my life.

    I would pay a lot of money for a series, (better yet a podcast) or even just a one-off thing, where Colbert discusses and explains, at length, the lore behind Tolkien's work, and I know I'm not alone.
    I've spent a good bit of time searching for each and every time Colbert mentions LotR, it's enthralling to hear him talk about it, to see his eyes just light up - I swear, he looks ten years younger. He would have the enthusiasm to do it right, and there's no one else on the planet who could do it as well as he could. The fact that Tolkien's work has become so deeply ingrained in Western fantasy culture is a fact that merits investigation and study, and, again - no one on Earth could do justice to the paradigm shift that is Tolkien's fiction works like this man could, absolutely no one has the breadth of knowledge, memorized, that Colbert does. Plus, with the amount of lore one can dig out of the LotR, the Hobbit, the Silmarillion, and the other short stories and whatnot that exist, there's easily enough content for a series, probably multiple seasons depending on just how wide they could decide to go with it. I guarantee any streaming service out there would pay top dollar for the chance to create that.
    It would make a huge amount of money, guaranteed, it would have a massive audience, it would cost very little to make and would be quite easy to shoot/record. I know Tolkien's estate is careful about what sorts of things they'll allow, but Colbert has never shown anything but respect and reverence for the works or the author, so I would be surprised if they were against something like this. Not to mention, Colbert himself would probably LOVE it! Speaking as a fellow nerd who loves nothing more than getting to talk, in depth, about the subtleties and minutia of my nerddom, I'm sure it would be a lot of fun for Colbert to do. Maybe it's something he could do for fun after he's ready to, hopefully a long time from now, set down the crown of King of Late Night Comedy. I know I'm not alone when I say that even the idea of this brings a childlike grin to my face. I really think people underestimate the audience for this type of media. Billion dollar idea for you here, Mr. Colbert. Fly me out to N.Y. and I'll consult pro bono. #colbert #LordOfTheRings #LSSCinNZ
