- Morgoth stealing the Silmarils
-Morgoth destroying the Two Trees by poisoning them
- Morgoth retreating to his great fortress of Thangorodrim with the Silmarils
- Feanor leading his people into exile
- War between the Eldar and Edain against Morgoth and his forces
- the defeat of the Eldar and Edain
- the union of Beren and Luthien and their lineage
-Beren and Luthien steal a Silmaril from the Iron Crown of Morgoth
-Luthien becomes mortal and gives birth to Dior
-the city of Gondolin with Turgon as its king
-the wedding of Earendil to Elwing
-the overthrow of Morgoth
-the ship of Earendil is set into the heavens
and it says that all this is from The Silmarallion.
UA and then Zaentz owned the rights to place all these things in a film. But the publishing of the book length SIL makes this nearly impossible and places them at risk of either losing tons of money produing a film that will be mocked for not being the real thing or risks a lawsuit if it is the real thing. The publication of the SIL placed those rights in a nearly impossible lose/lose situation. That is very clearly a diminishment of rights that they paid for, held and now can not use. And who is responsible for this situation? CT.
That is in the Appendicies. It is far more than just a few names here and there as you claim. And that is just the tip of the iceberg for there is much more on other Middle-earth history that goes beyond that list.
