I don't know if The Silmarillion would really be that hard random thoughts Send a noteboard - 04/06/2010 05:52:39 PM
and I suspect we will find out since it Hollywood will make any movie that will sale.

The real problem with it is there are to many characters and to many small stories. If they broke it up into several movies they could cover the major story lines without to much problem and either ignore or use a narrator to cover the rest. The purest won’t like but then again they never do.

Luhrman largely stuck to Shakespeare's dialogue, though... and that worked amazingly well imho. *NM* Legolas - 05/06/2010 04:25:08 PM 457 Views
