They did Robin Hood, why not LotR?

I think because of copyright stuff. Once LOTR is public domain, it's free game

Won't Bugs Bunny go into the public domain before LotR does?

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

actually yes, there are actually some loony toons episodes which are currently in the public domain. So the only thing keeping this from happening is the will to do so.

Considering that this is goofy enough to be a parody, it's fair game now.
