Warner Bros. Celebrates Tolkien's Birthday In Style
Normally when it's someone's birthday, you buy them presents. But Lord of the Rings scribe J.R.R. Tolkien has been dead for quite some time, so Warner Bros. is sending his fans presents instead. Check out more pictures of the loot below.
Here's what was inside the box shown above:
I asked Jeff Cork to pose with the shirt. Instead he hid behind it. What a baby
Here's the rather mundane message on the back
Here is the misleading beverage that came with it. The nonalcoholic drink burned our throats like a vampire drinking holy water
Here's a closeup of the cups. Are they shot glasses for humans, or normal-sized glasses for hobbits? You be the judge!
So, how are you celebrating Tolkien's birthday?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
