Need a little Tolkien fix? Independent Online Cinema produced a not so short 45 minute feature of Strider on the hunt for Gollum. The time line is set early in Fellowship of the Ring when Gandalf had left the shire and Strider would then await them in Bree.
While the special effects are respectable and the acting is well and good, the story seems useless outside of filling in a small blank to the story.
It's a nice little piece of work that should keep people thinking about the next two Hobbit movies.
