i think saul zaentz is the problem with LOTR stuff...he's a notoriously hard negotiator.buff-beardo wrote:Licensing to do an adaptation of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy would surely be profitable, but probably to difficult to get rights to. I think I've read where other publishers had tried and were unable to work out the details with the Tolkien heirs.
zaentz used to manage credence clearwater revivial, john fogarty wrote "old man down the road" about him so zaentz sued him for plagarism....of a ccr song that JOHN wrote.
the case was finally thrown out due to the court's ruling that fogarty couldn't steal an idea from himself.
saul zaentz is a major league prick from everything i've heard.
