The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

Oh Oracle most wise,
What will be the biggest surprises when "The Lord of The Rings" film is released?
And in response, thus spake the Oracle:
10.The Religious Right will be out in force to condemn the evils of cohobbitation.
9.Martha Stewart will have a special on what to do with all your leftover lembas.
8.The same no-life looneytune who created a programming language for Klingons will announce his own hacked version of MacOS localized for Sindarin.
7.Read the f'n ShadowFAQ.
6.Nursery rhymes will become mysteriously longer.
5.New flavors at Ben and Jerry's: Frodo Fudge, Sauron Patch Kids, Bilboberry.
4.Rosie O'Donnell starts referring to Ring Dings as "My Preciouses".
3.The US Army Rangers get an even bigger case on themselves.
2.Forests finally get fed up and literally walk picket lines until loggers give up.
And the number one big surprise when the LoTR movies come out...
1.One ring to rule them all,
One ring to find them,
One ring to bring them all,
And in the darkness bind them...

but no smokers/weirdos, be discreet, and only if you're serious, box 1138.

You owe the Oracle an ent (and an uncle).
