I remember hearing about this and visiting the website nearly two years ago. I don't think I'll bother with a return trip. It looked terrible. <P>I have to say though, that beyond ripping off the language (as severl books have done, more out of unoriginality than in homage), I can't see many similarities to the Beleriand described in The Silmarillion. <P>I'll go to see the movie if I get a chance, but there is no way I'll consider it a part of Tolkien's world. No more than I consider The Sword of Shannara books. This movie is just more proof that all modern fantasy erupted from one source.
