Just a thought I had while replying to the Wight's downs rating thread... after the movie, I would not be surpised if we had a large flood of new members with no background to Tolkien, just the movie of the Fellowship, and with nothing better to say than 'the movie was great, did you see that battle scene, yeah, Elrond or something' (ect.) Of course, most will wither away quickly, finding themselves out of their depth by several metres; but it will be rather annoying.
What do you think?
