I don't knowvif they dumbed down for a soap actor or if this means that the films have gained the upper hand.

Putting a positive spin on this . . . perhaps the framer of the question was aware that the movies were marketed as a trilogy but that Tolkien himself said LotR was not a trilogy? It was printed in three parts I believe because of economic issues in England in the mid-50's.

It's an idea straight from St. Jude.
