This past weekend Jeannette took it upon herself to watch the three Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings movies. Though I am not a fan of these movies, I did end up catching a few minutes here and there.
After watching the movies Jeannette and I were both quite taken with the similarities between the Lord of the Rings story and the Harry Potter story/books.
Of course, this discussion reminded me of the Radiolab piece from a few years ago about Wagner's Ring Cycle. While this piece is mostly about the Ring Cycle, they do discuss some of the similarities between Wagner's work and Tolkien's.
