• ... that Tom Bombadil, dropped by Peter Jackson, appears in a Russian film of The Lord of the Rings? Source: "A Soviet television adaptation of The Lord of the Rings ... includes some plot elements left out of Jackson’s $93m blockbuster, including an appearance by the character Tom Bombadil, a forest dweller cut from the English-language version because he was too long-winded and failed to move the plot forward." Andrew Roth, The Guardian, 5 April 2021

• The article is new enough and long enough. Reviewing the article, I see the characters Goldberry and the Barrow-wright do not appear in the Guardian and BBC sources, but I trust the nominator that they were mentioned in the cited DVD commentary. As per the quote, the Bombadil character in the hook is definitely in it. As somebody unfamiliar with the entire story, I trust that the plot summary is accurately representative of the cited video. The critical reception section reflects critical consensus of the low production values of the film, with appropriate levels of praise where necessary. Hook is short enough, cited and neutral. I'd personally say that Bombadil is a character in case someone thought he was an actor, but that's not a deal breaker. The hook is interesting to a broad audience as even those who didn't see the billion-grossing films know that Peter Jackson directed them. QPQ is done.

Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 15:50, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Basic stuff and comments

• Add alt text to both images.

• Done.

• Lead and #Context look good.

• Thanks.

• Plot is 444 words so that passes WP:FILMPLOT.

• Noted.

• "entertains them at table" - word missing?

• None that I can see. Maybe this is a British English thing.

Shouldn't it be "at a table"? Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 03:52, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

Fixed.

• Remove the comma after "in the snow to Bree".

• Done.

• Remove the comma after "bridge across a chasm".

• Done.

• Change "realise" to "realize" - AE and consistency.

• Done.

• What is the purpose of the #Crew section. Is this not covered in the infobox?

• Well, the infobox summarizes the key points of the article, several of which are in this section; the section covers also production design and costume design, not in the infobox.

Well, then I would suggest adding sources for the rest of the crew. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 03:52, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

Added.

• Archive sources for future use (you can use this tool or do it manually).

• Done.
