It is being directed by Gollum!

yep. It's based on a boring, but relatively well made fan film from 2009 where Aragorn runs around in Middle Earth and is angsty. I have watched it and I appreciate the passion from the fans who made it, but there is no way I would ever think this movie/idea had enough flesh on the bone to make a feature length film. The fan film is like 40 minutes long, and it is so slow and dull, that I genuinely cannot remember what happens in it.
