Movie remakes?

[Saraphim]

Somewhere in America, a kid with a bad complexion and a limited social life is busily filling a secret notebook with plans for "Lord of the Rings -- The Right Way."

I think that writer is channeling me, only the notebook is entitled "The Silmarilion--Please don't let me screw this up"

Thanks Encaitare for the links! Most of my mental pictures are slightly based on pictures like those.

I was thinking of doing a made-for-tv special type thing, but I've settled (for the moment, nothing is set in stone, of course) for making it story by story and releasing them as movies. Like that it won't be done for a while, but that's the best way I can think of doing it.
