For example the story of Beren & Luthien, or Turin Turambar's story (which has a standalone book: The Children of Hurin). My dream is The Silmarillion to be made into a bigass-budget miniseries. All those huge battles with balrogs vs uberelfs duking it out would be amazing to see. Fingolfin vs Morgoth, etc. Never gonna happen though. =/ While they could break it in parts, I think it is the very vastness of the chronicle, encompassing eons, being midway between a creation myth and an homeric epic, that makes the Simarillions such a unique work of literature. A miniseries might do it better justice, in an ideal world, but I don't think miniseries are there yet, seeing what they did with the Dune miniseries, for example. They just don't make enough money with those things. | ||

I actually would not like to see a miniseries of the silmarillion. it has much to small an audience and there is just no way that tv could do justice to the stories. | ||

Really sounds like the 3d in this should be more like Avatar and less like the other money grabbing version that every single movie since then has had Check it out https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150451523596807 | ||

. I'm blind in my right eye, so 3D means I have to pay extra to see a darker version of the same movie while wearing ugly glasses.I'm super excited to see this, though. I've probably read The Hobbit a dozen times since I was 10 or so. | ||
