Well, a film would be amazing but there isn't enough dialogue in the book to make it properly. So, someone would have to make it up, which is not always good! Plus, only tolkienites would go and see it probably.<P>Personally, I think a documentary would be cool, which would be able to span all of the age and have an overview. They could even have those maps with moving arrows, etc. This would show all the movemtns of the men and the armies movements from thier homes toward Angband. It sounds like a ten-parter thing that the History Channel would have, maybe? I WISH!!
