But it still would've been released as 'The Lord of the Rings', which effectively IS claiming to be close to the source material.

With Gimli being beaten in a hole and Frodo engaging in sexual intercourse with Galadriel? Really?

I don't know about anyone else but I thought that movie was awful. It discards the fantasy of Arthur's story so it can claim to be realistic, yet is then riddled with so many historical inaccuracies and ridiculous sequences that it actually ends up being neither.
And let's not even discuss Keira Knightley's role.
