I don't think that I could say anything without violating the by-laws of this site that I helped create.

Read carefully:
The film script of the book 'Tolkien is Klone'it' is offered to the highest bidder.
I think it's real. Whether this book is any good, or whether someone would want to make a movie of it, is another question entirely.
