<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>No, I don't think it should be attempted, although it may well be as they seem to be making movies of everything these days. Too many movies...<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I agree. I really, <I>really</I> don't want to see the Silmarillion as a movie, show, or miniseries. I wouldn't trust anyone short of Tolkien himself in doing something like that. Maybe (and I stress maybe), if Christopher Tolkien had a major voice in the production, it would be a good miniseries, but it seems highly unlikely that he would want to do that (and I certainly don't blame him).<P>Of course, that doesn't mean it's not fun to talk about possible castings. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Sean Connery strikes me as a king of Numenor. Maybe Tar Palantir?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Ooh, I didn't think about that... yes, he definitely has the presence to be a Númenorian king.<p>[ July 11, 2003: Message edited by: Estella Brandybuck ]
