NFTs exist solely to destroy the planet and occupy the eye of people that imagine within the possession of imaginary nonsense. And but, Warner Bros. Discovery’s new NFT plan for Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring appears much more ludicrous than regular. The plan is to launch the film as a set of NFTs… that sound suspiciously like glorified digital copies of the movie.
There are two variations of the prolonged version of the film being launched in NFT kind: the Mystery version and the Epic version, the previous “limited” to 10,000 copies and the latter to 999. What differentiates this from proudly owning the film on some type of residence video? Well, the Mystery model has certainly one of three particular menus based mostly on the Shire, Rivendell, or the Mines of Moria, whereas the Epic has all three. Both have “location-specific image galleries” and eight hours of particular options that are pointedly not specified as unique to the NFTs, and “AR collectibles,” that are additionally unspecified.
If you need to buy a replica of the extended model of The Fellowship of the Ring you possibly can solely view on Web3, the Mystery version will run you $30 whereas the Epic is $100. If you desire a model you possibly can watch anyplace you might have web entry, Amazon sells it for $10 (or you possibly can watch it without spending a dime when you have Amazon Prime). A Blu-ray/DVD combo can be $10 on the time of this text’s publication. But if you happen to actually desire a model you faux you completely personal, the NFTs will go on sale tomorrow, October 21, here.
Just a reminder: Tolkien loved the natural world and would completely hate this.
