We're back with a special quarantine episode! From the time we published The Princess Bride until today (11/19/19 to 04/01/20 -- over a third of a year!) we at Hate Expecations have had a good long Christmas vacation, planned and delivered the culmination of a four year Leap Day party, read some non-adapted books, and mostly enjoyed taking some time off. However, now that home isolating is a reality, we have had time to re-read something we expect a lot of people are also re-experiencing, the first book of John Ronald Reuel Tolkien's epic trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (1954). We also watched the seminal film adaptation (dir. Ralph Bakshi, 1978) and some other lesser conversions of the work. We don't have any special guests this time, in part because of the quarantine, but mostly because this episode wasn't planned. Like Gandalf the Grey, sometimes a podcast arrives precisely when it means to.
