The Lord Of The Rings writer clarifies the plans for future movies in a new Empire interview. Read more.
“It’s a specific chunk of incredible untold story, told through the perspective of this incredible creature.”.
Yes. Living in a dark cave with some water in it is so incredible. We can only guess why the story was never told.
Also, Gandolf in both films. But they won't do anything in the 1st or 2nd era. Cowards.
Middle heart: literally thousands of years with if low and characters to be explored
Hollywood: Gollum.
Tolkien's heirs will not let them touch The Silmarillion. The current show is based on the appendices to LOTR. I watched it for a while and enjoyed it, I'm not caught up. Certainly better than the Hobbit bullshit. Hopefully this opens the door to doing stuff from Sil.
it's *Gandalf, not "Gandolf" lol
Listen. He's whoever I need him to be, dammit! Who are you to take my dreams away!
Maybe M. Night Shamalan is directing
The only one in the world asking for more Gollum content is Andy Serkis' bank account.
Fuckn YAWN Everything has to be a franchise now doesn't it? They already butchered The Hobbit by turning a short story into 9 hours of crap by padding out and blatantly making shit up. It's not like all these "safe bets" the studios are making are paying out too well at the moment, so why not try taking some smaller risks with new and different projects? I'm sure Hollywood is flooded with people with original ideas and scripts that are being bypassed because Fast And Fuckaround 11tyone needs to be made because money.
Nah I'm good
Look, either make "Ken Burns' The Silmarillion" already or let the franchise rest.
I want a Lego Lord of the Rings trilogy.
There will only be three and a half LOTR movies. I'm counting that weird one from the 70's as the half.
The Rankin/Bass Hobbit cartoon movie from 1977? Or the Ralph Bakshi LotR cartoon/rotoscope adaptation from 1978?
I'm thinking more the 1978 version with the crazy rotoscoping!
confirms? warns more like.
