re: Speculating on Amazon's LOTR series...

At this point, I just want a smaller animation company to strike a deal with the Tolkien estate and just do The Silmarillion (or at least parts of it) right. I have no faith in any major studio to faithfully pull off anything anymore, let alone a live action property.

Too bad Christopher Tolkein is no longer around. He could have started a studio himself. Silmarillion is essentially the Old Testament of fantasy literature.
