Save The Shire!
“We have discovered that Saul Zaentz Company, amongst countless other trademark filings, is attempting to trademark the word ‘Shire’. We don’t know why. We don’t understand why. But to us it indicates a greed in trying to buy up anything to do with Tolkien’s work, ahead of the fans, and ahead of the Tolkien family.”
