Yeah that would be awesome to see the story of Beren and Luthian. A tough one to do though would be Turin Turumbar. Its just sooooo tragic and depressing. But Beren and Luthian has a happy ending so it wouldnt be as bad I think;people wouldnt leave the theatre in a down mood.

I read somewhere (can't remember where!) that tolkien wrote the simarillion as Middle earth's bible so itwould be hard for someone to turn it into a film unless they only concentraited on one accpect eg beren and luthiun
If anyone thinks I'm speaking rubbish Just say I don't mind Lol |

But don't they live out there lives in the far south regions of Ossiriand as mortals? Beren would have stayed in the halls of Mandos if not for Luthian traveling to valinor in spirit form to bring him back to middle earth(I think it was spirit form). She gave up her imortality to live as a mortal with him and die a mortal death together with Beren. To me that is a happy ending because they are together till death and are never bothered again untill years later when they are old and grey.

Men do not go to the Halls of Mandos. Beren was the only one to ever see where men go after death before returning to ME but he never spoke of it to anyone.

It won't even be untill the rights are purchased. Once that is announced which may take another 2-3 years they can start planning on making Hobbit. Once they start planning it may take another 2 years for development. Once the film is developed it must begin principle photography and editing which generaly would take Jackson 1 year or so. After this it must be distributed another few months for Europe usually. So 3+2+1+.5?= 6.5 years. There you have it potentially 6 and a hald years! Though if things go smoothly for P. Jackson, Hobbit rights, King Kong, production team, and actor age, we may see a Hobbit film in theaters as early as 5 maybe 4 years from 2004!(I don't forsee anything sooner.

How can men not go to the Halls of Mandos but Beren saw where men go after death; which is the Halls of Mandos?...unless I'm missinterpriting the book. I think you canceled out your first sentence with the second. |

Telcontar did not negate his first sentence with the second. These are the facts; 1. Elves when they die go to The Halls of Mandos on Valinor. 2. Men go to another unknown place that is NOT The Halls of Mandos. 3. Beren was the only man to see the place(which is not Mandos) that men go to. Beren saw this place but never spoke a word of it to any other man!

I hope they do not make a movie about The Hobbit. As has been proven by the LotR movie, it is impossible to make a movie as good as the book. All that will happen is that the director will change and leave stuff out as he pleases - and the result will be another fake movie completely different from the book.
