LotR remake crew and plans - Page 9

**Nurvingiel** · 11-27-2003, 09:15 PM

I think we should do LotR first, then film The Hobbit as a prologue. Once we've honed our cinematic skills, we could spend roughly 10 years filming the Silmarillion!

Hey Kiwi! We're the team (plus Hector of course)! (If you still want to be Asst. Director that is.)

So does everyone want to do the signature thing? Show a little 'Moot Movie pride. Hm. Do you think " 'Moot Movie" should be our slogan? Just kidding!

hectorberlioz · 11-27-2003, 09:22 PM

we will be known as the greatest filmmakers of all time!
several bronze statues will be put up outsied the whitehouse in memory of us after our deaths.
and in all the capitals of the world!
and inscribed underneath: bow to this statue.

**Nurvingiel** · 11-28-2003, 07:53 PM

I was wondering where we should set the movie? I think we should choose one country for continuity purposes.

British Columbia would make an ideal location. In Vancouver, the established movie industry would give us the resources we need. Vancouver is surrounded by the beautiful Cascade mountains, covered with snow in the winter (Caradrhas). We have every type of ecosystem classification in the world, except tropical rainforest. We do have temperate rainforests, and the old-growth ones would make a perfect Fangorn! Last but not least, my hometown of Kamloops, would make an ideal Rohan. Kamloops is a beautiful grassland with rolling hills and Ponderosa Pine forests. There are also many ranches nearby where we could rent horses. Kamloops also has a strong film industry!

sounds like an exciting place!
i'll look up pics, if there is any availabe on the internet.

You may have found this already but...

http://www.city.vancouver.bc.ca/

Vancouver also has access to places like Stanley Park, Cypress Bowl (which is a provincial park in addition to a ski hill.)
And there are also two good bogs we could use for Dead Marshes Scenes.

And if you do an image search in google, you get a decent selection.

I havent posted at this forum for a while but this project inspires me! I'll gladly compose music.

hectorberlioz · 11-29-2003, 03:11 PM

oooo.....
Tell me, have you much experience with composing?.
i want timpani and trumpets in some areas.
contact azalea for moods you need to capture in the score.
alright i'm adding you to the list.

b.banner · 11-29-2003, 06:54 PM

Varda Oiolosseo · 11-29-2003, 07:46 PM

We still need roles like Sam, Bilbo, Gandalf, osv, so I reckon it'll take some time.

Lollypopgurl · 11-29-2003, 08:02 PM

I would like to help. I don't know if you have any director positions left but I have experience in directing movies.

Scriptwriting, screenplay, editing or anything.

Telmelion · 11-29-2003, 08:15 PM

Yes, I do have some experience in composing...i performed some of my own music on the piano a little while ago.

I 'write music' in the sense of "thinking it up" all the time, but i'm too lazy and busy to write it down.

I'd definently write it down if it gets played in a movie though

We also have to decide where we're going to film it. I'm going for British Columbia, especially Vancouver and Kamloops. (I already posted why.)

If anyone else has a place they think would be good to film, they should post a description and why they think it's good. Then we can make an informed decision!

There's probably tons of great places to film around the world, but I would personally prefer a location that at least one of us knows well.

It's super cool we have you as a composer Telmelion! I think original music is the best to have as the main theme of a movie.

ohmygoodness! a real composer!

ever tried writing a symphony?

i am really, really, into classical music.
Nirvingiel is right. it is best to have original music.

write away!

**Nurvingiel** · 11-30-2003, 02:13 AM

It seems like we might not have enough people to fill the major roles. IMHO, whoever has an off camera role should also double as one of the characters. What is LotR without Bilbo? Sucky, that's what!

hectorberlioz · 11-30-2003, 02:26 AM

true, true, but we have time for casting as we write the script and visualize stuff a bit.....

Beor · 11-30-2003, 08:12 AM

Well, its been a bit since I've been in here, seems like alot may have happened. Anyway, I was just going to say that casting shouldnt be a problem at all. I'm sure there are many people who would love to fill roles in the movies, and who would do a good job.

b.banner · 11-30-2003, 02:47 PM

cool can i be gollum to?

Agalayth · 11-30-2003, 07:32 PM

I write music. I may be 14, but I must say that some of the stuff I compose is damn good. Maybe I could help with the score.

True, true. I see a lot's happened. I haven't been on much lately, but I figured it was time to come out of the hole and say "Hi" to ya'll.

Anyway, I'd gladly double as a character! Has Lobelia Sackville Baggins been taken yet?

Also, have you talked stunt doubles yet? (like I said, haven't been on this thread in a while) I'm guessing we need a few.
