Randal's rant against the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was taken almost [verbatim] from 

Kevin Smith's diatribe [against] the movies 

in the London section of his "Evening with Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder" DVD. Many of Randal's lines are taken directly from what Smith said in the Q&A (including the line "and just before the credits roll, Sam bricks in Frodo's mouth").
