I know it's only a story, and being a dramatized radio program, some leave is often taken when writing the script. But, I don't remember ever reading Frodo swearing.
Now, it's been a couple of decades since I've dusted off & cracked open my copy of this Tolkien literary masterpiece. In part 2, 50:00 Frodo, in frustration says "Butterbur making a FUKKING mess of things!" And, although they have produced 3 or 4 different versions of LOTR in the past 40+ years, this is by far their best.īUT, I don't remember Frodo cursing when Butterbur gives him the letter he failed to send from Gandolf. Launched two months after the Lord of the Rings removal from Netflix, HBO Max will likely retain the series permanently.BBC has never failed at bringing classics to life with their radio productions. The final nail in the coffin came last spring with the launch of HBO Max, which is owned by Warner Media. While Fellowship of the Ring was on Netflix, the rights to The Two Towers and Return of the King were owned by Hulu and later Starz. Throughout its entire run on the platform, Netflix also had to fight an uphill battle for the series' streaming rights. Despite Lord of the Rings' immense popularity, none of the series' films managed to make Netflix's top 10 most watched movies in 2019. Its streaming numbers also played a role in Netflix's decision to only host the films temporarily. By constantly cycling through popular films, the service's vast media library appears even larger.
In addition to being more affordable, this practice also benefits Netflix's user model, which keeps users watching by suggesting new popular content. Although films like the Lord of the Rings trilogy encourage more subscribers, their streaming rights are more expensive, which is why popular films that aren't Netflix Originals don't last long on the service.
