Do you believe it should end here or that more movies should be made.

Yes I think there should be.

The Silmarillion?

Nah.

It's far too complex, IMO.

Intellectuals like us get it.

I've tried to figure out a way to create a Silmarillion series, but the problem is quite simply the ending, the War of Wrath. It would need large revisions to make a film from it. Still, I'd love to see it.

can't see it happening, ,,, i wanna see peter jackson work for marvel or dc

Yes but with Guillermo del Toro.

If the Silmarillion were to happen it would need to be done very differently. Taken out of Jackson's hands and produced with the understanding that it's not being done as any sort of tie-in with Jackson's films.

I wouldn't want live-action. The Silmarillion is too grand and sweeping in scale and scope for that. Couldn't be a movie either; movies follow arcs, 3-act structures, themes etc. The Silmarillion isn't formatted that way. Animated (hand-drawn, cuz old school) and done in the style of a documentary, or an encyclopedia come to life.

I would hate to see his talents wasted on something so irrelevant.


I can only hope that we've seen the last of these movies. How about we just be content on the three great movies we received with the original trilogy until they most assuredly remake the damn thing in another ten years.
