Did you know that in the 1960's J. R. R. Tolkien started rewriting the entire novel of "The Hobbit" in the same style of The Lord of the Rings? What survives of this attempt is reprinted in the "The History of The Hobbit" box set. So Tolkien played with the idea of not just re-doing one scene, but in fact revising the story telling style of the entire work.
