    It's not a Tolkien story, but rather inspired by his works.

    Doesn't that describe the vast majority of fantasy novels ?

      Heh, True. I was gonna say the same thing.
      The Dogma movie was probably, somehow, inspired by the bible. Yet I know plenty of church-going people that just don;t like it.
      I wonder how many Tolkien lovers are gonna hate it becuse it ain't Tolkien.

    the king of one group of people is having his judgement clouded by a wicked chancellor who is actually working for the evil one.

    Yeah, not like that particular story element goes back to the Bible or Homer or anything.
