Middle-earth Enterprises filed for the following trademarks back in January. This does not imply that any of these are being made, but in general you must have a 'bona fide' intent to use the mark as filed in the near future, or your application would be rejected. These are from various categories that the USPTO uses, so not all of the individual subcategories are potentially being considered, but some things from those categories are. I found it really interesting to see the appearance of financial instruments/cryptocurrency (likely a blocking move rather than an intent to make a cryptocurrency themselves, due to the lawsuit of last year...)
