A writer is demanding $250M because he claims Amazon's Rings of Power ripped off his Lord of the Rings fanfiction.
An author is suing Amazon and The Tolkien Estate for what he claims is copyright infringement in The Rings of Power, last year's TV show based on the appendices of The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit.
Here's where things take a turn.

The Tolkien Estate's attorney"rebuffed any attempt at collaboration the very next day," according to the complaint Polychron filed.
