Peter Jackson should just step back, shut up and start making the Silmarillion. Three more movies please!

YES. The Silmarillion would tie up the other things alluded to in the scripts of the first six movies. I wonder if he would include the kin slaying an the betrayal at the ice flows. That would be cool too. Galadrial was one of those who survived crossing the ice in the north and came into middle earth. So many things to choose from...where to start.

Unfortunately, the Tolkein Estate hasn’t sold the rights to any more material than JRR did in the 1950s.

There was a question early on of the Hobbit getting filmed at all because MGM, Warner Bros and New Line each held portions of the rights and were reluctant to share...which is why the Hobbit films start with the logos for all three entities.

Out of the shadows—and into the surf! It’s Beren the Barbarian on his bitchin’ board and his singin’, dancin’, guitar-playin’ Goth girlfriend Luthien the Luthier starring in Beach Blanket Beleriand!

“Wow! Two of them! And so beautiful! We’re Silmarillionaires!”
