Hell, they could get a whole trilogy just out of Beren. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 01/01/2015 02:52:38 AM

If you take all the extant material out there, you could definitely create three movies that tell the tale of the Silmarils through the lens of those three heroes, culminating with the fall of Thangorodrim and the ruin of Ancalagon the Black, the chaining of Morgoth...it could be awesome.

  1. Upbringing as a junior forest commando with his dad, and meeting Luthien

  2. First attempt, where he gets captured by Sauron & rescued by Luthien

  3. Raid on Thangorodrim and theft of the Silmaril, including stuff like the battle between the hound and the werewolf, and their fight with the sons of Feanor.

Alternatively, they could combine 2 & 3 and make the third movie of the stuff that happened after they grabbed the Silmaril, up through the fall of Luthien's father and the recovery of the necklace from the dwarves.


They could get a whole movie out of the story of Turin (if I am remembering the name right - I refer to the guy who married his sister and killed the dragon).

Can you give me your assessment of - LotR Trilogy vs. Hobbit Trilogy - 12/12/2014 05:52:50 PM 987 Views
I think this was a case of Jackson being forced to make them. - 12/12/2014 11:37:49 PM 866 Views
I don't wanna come across as hating either the Hobbit or the newer SW trilogy. - 13/12/2014 10:46:42 PM 788 Views
The crap CGI was not the problem. - 14/12/2014 10:57:34 PM 682 Views
I wouldn't assume it is the last. Hollywood never lets a cash cow die. *NM* - 12/12/2014 06:13:09 PM 350 Views
Nah. What is there left to show? - 13/12/2014 10:49:22 PM 718 Views

You could also do one movie about the fall of Numenor. *NM* - 26/12/2014 08:44:58 PM 294 Views
Um... if YOU'RE saying this about a big-budget film - 12/12/2014 08:52:08 PM 790 Views
What's that supposed to mean? - 13/12/2014 10:50:42 PM 815 Views
Nothing insulting - you're just better at enjoying the spectacle - 14/12/2014 03:40:02 PM 722 Views
Uh-oh. So even worse than the previous two, then? - 14/12/2014 08:54:43 PM 646 Views
In the book, Bilbo is knocked out really fast and the battle is basically a few pages - 15/12/2014 08:39:56 PM 708 Views
I remember that much, yeah - 15/12/2014 09:28:56 PM 671 Views
Ah, then that does change the perspective a lot. - 16/12/2014 01:22:02 PM 676 Views
Hm, found it better than I expected. But then I expected very bad. - 16/12/2014 10:50:51 PM 700 Views
