Fun fact: Noted 'mockbuster' movie production company The Asylum wanted to profit from the Peter Jackson Hobbit trilogy craze, so they filmed "Age of the Hobbits," about "a prehistoric struggle between a community of Homo floresiensis (known as 'hobbits') and their brutal oppressors, Java Man."

Warner Bros. and New Line Cinemas did not find their reasoning persuasive, and after a trademark lawsuit and injunction, The Asylum changed the title to the less litigatable "Clash of the Empires."
