Would you want to see The Silmarillion on the big screen?

YES!

Well, a TV show would be cool...

No. No I don't. Peter Jackson: KEEP AWAY

The Lord Of The Rings movies weren't as good as the books (obviously) however they were still fantastic, I thought. The Hobbit movies were nowhere near as good as the book, but were okay. Now, The Silmarillion. Should Mr. Jackson make that in to a film? Or TV show? I think not. The book is to intense for either, he could NOT do it justice. Nobody could.

  • there isn't really a way to turn a massive history lesson like the silmarillion(thousands of years time) into one cohesive narrative and formatted to 90 minutes and remain a profitable venture. Not many people outside Tolkien fans/nerds are going to know it, it doesn't have the massive brand recognition. people don't have that attention span. it would have to be mutilated to be a movie. maybe a 100 season long TV series like doctor who except less retarded?
