Here's an interesting factoid about my world. Matt grew up down the road from where J.R.R. Tolkien lived (and died without knowing he would be famous), he went to school where he did, and we've all attended enough Tolkien festivals there where there are sword fighters, fire eaters, giant pigs on sticks roasting on an open fire (gross), and all sorts of interesting stuff. You can very much see his hometown brought out in some of the movie in different aspects.
