The Lord of the Rings

The Lord of the Rings a series of three books, turned movies. Dr. Bill Lee is a self-confessed fan of it.

When the Trust infiltrated Atlantis and rigged the ZPM to overload the next time the city dialled Earth, Lee and a team planned to send a team to P4M-399, which would send a subspace communication to the Daedalus, who would then relay the warning to Atlantis. Lee cited the signal fires through the mountain tops of the saga's third movie as a comparisons.

In 2008, while hunting Poole's Replicator, Lee suggested to send it to the "fires from whence it came", which was a phrase from the movies.
