What if "The Lord of the Rings"had been written as "The Wizard of Oz"

"The Wizard of Middle Earth", written by L. Frank Baum and adapted to movies by Victor Fleming

by GRAS

As the remains of the fellowship stands in front of Gandalf, after the ring was destroyed...

Gimli: "I want a sense of humor!"

Gangalf: "You can't "have" a sense of humor! There is only one sure way to make the audience laugh- Slapstick!"

By that, Gangalf rasies Gimli and toses him back to Moria. The audience is LOLing.

Legolas: "I want love!"

Gandalf: "Love will come by itself. For the time being, you'll have the next best thing."

Gandalf is raising his hand, and suddenly Legolas is clad in leather clothes. Another raise of Gandalf's hand, and Legolas disapears... Only to reapear in a gay bar in happy hour.

Aragorn: "I want a brain!"

Gandalf: "It is not the brain that makes you smart. It is your look that makes people THINK you're smart"

Gandalf gives Aragorn a shaving machine. Aragorn gets rid of the stubble that was on his face for the last two years. Arwen leaves him immidietly. Aragorn is now scheduled to present the head actor award in the Oscar ceremony.

Frodo: "I want acting skills!"

Gandalf: "Wait a second! I may be a wizard, but there are things that even I can't do!"
