PKD was an amazing author as well. Offhand I can think of quite a few movies made from his books/short stories:
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep -->
Blade Runner
We Can Remember it For You Wholesale -->
Total Recall
Second Variety -->
Screamers
The Minority Report
Paycheck
Impostor
and some others...
Some "hits", many misses.
If you look hard you can find "Bored of the Rings" in pdf format on the web.
"Aiyee," shouted Legolam. "A ballhog!"
