MGM studios says it has bought the script of Henry Bates and the Sorcerer's Balls - a comic parody of both the hugely popular Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings series.

Out go the Hobbits and Gandalf the good wizard and in come the Bobbits, who are under an evil sexual spell, and the good wizard Gandolfini who battles the bad wizard Enron.

Henry Bates (Master Bates?) attends a school called the St Buggerers Academy for Boys and One Girl, and sets out on a quest to regain his kingdom - the Land of Middlefinger.
