AintItCool's Holiday Gift Guide has, for years now, provided the ultimate shopping list for those searching both on and off the beaten path for the intersection of pop culture curios and art world opuses. Thus I could not be more pleased that -- amidst Roald Dahl, Marylin Monroe, Michael Cain, Brian Sibley, and a lovely edition of The Hobbit -- The Music of the Lord of the Rings Films has made this year's list!

This is Part 1 of the full guide, of course, which covers "books, comics, music, and gadgets." So if you're in a shopping mood, there's plenty more to come. But if you're already in a Black Friday shopping frenzy today, do yourself a favor and hop over to AintItCool.com
