O.k. I'll break my silence with this. As an unabashed Tolkien fan and a fan of the Peter Jackson adaptations of The Lord of the Rings, finding this movie has me very happy.
Not affiliated with the Tolkien estate or Peter Jackson or New Line Cinema "The Hunt for Gollum" is a not for profit short film made by fans of the author's work. It's set for release on May 3rd.
I only just came across its existence but from the trailers it looks way cool. The story comes from the appendices of The Lord of the Rings. The appendices have so much background material that many more shorts or even features could be made from them. And that's not even getting into the epic Silmarillion (which is rumoured to be in the early stages of a film adaptation).
Here's the original Trailer:
