What has Warner Bros. got in its nasty little pocketses? Copyright strikes apparently.

After announcing Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum — an Andy Serkis and Peter Jackson-backed movie set for 2026 — Warner Bros. has taken down an old fan-made movie that shares the same name.

Now blocked “on copyright grounds” for allegedly containing Warner Bros. content, the 15-year-old YouTube video from Independent Online Cinema had previously accrued 13.6 million views.
