NC: Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so you don't have to, and welcome to another edition of Old vs. New. NC: This is where I take something old and nostalgic and compare it to a recent remake. With that said, let's take a look at Lord of The Rings. NC (voiceover): Becoming the holy bible of geekdom, Lord of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien has revolutionized the style of fantasy and given a whole new respect to the genre. NC (voiceover): Many of us know about the Peter Jackson movies based on the books that came out between 2001 and 2003.
