I was assuming they will ignore the Peter Jackson story line and cast random thoughts Send a noteboard - 14/11/2017 03:30:12 PM

I know I would in their place. You can always just claim you are staying truer to the book. Of course these characters have become so iconic it may be like giving Dorothy silver slippers.

Amazon Making a LOTR Universe Show (Prequel) The Shrike - 13/11/2017 08:17:44 PM 1450 Views
Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Legolas - 13/11/2017 08:51:39 PM 1005 Views
What would you have them make instead? The Shrike - 13/11/2017 11:47:34 PM 977 Views
Uh, nothing, I guess? They've made movies of everything they could, and way too soon for remakes. *NM* Legolas - 14/11/2017 06:37:41 PM 639 Views
This is illogical. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 06:43:11 PM 985 Views

This worst that could happen is it would suck *NM* random thoughts - 15/11/2017 05:24:34 AM 586 Views
Probably. But that's how I see it. *NM* Legolas - 14/11/2017 08:49:47 PM 610 Views
So not looking forward to this Roland00 - 13/11/2017 09:11:32 PM 991 Views
It's a business. And businesses are inherently conservative about gambling. The Shrike - 13/11/2017 11:49:01 PM 1025 Views
Yes there is some logic to it. Roland00 - 13/11/2017 11:57:04 PM 947 Views
Chances are good. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 12:23:08 PM 1123 Views
The GOT tv show will still be there in a decade or so Roland00 - 14/11/2017 05:29:43 PM 994 Views
But by then you will be spoiled on how it ends. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 05:33:15 PM 1001 Views
I didn't think it would end this way. / End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another Roland00 - 14/11/2017 06:49:38 PM 1100 Views
You're starting to become Joel-like in the length of your replies. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 07:01:24 PM 969 Views
Sorry I get quotey when I get sentimental Roland00 - 14/11/2017 07:26:03 PM 999 Views

I haven't seen anything about Frodo. The Shrike - 13/11/2017 11:49:50 PM 928 Views
The first paragraph of the article you linked random thoughts - 14/11/2017 02:04:13 AM 1020 Views
Yeah, I see that now. Sloppy journalism. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 12:20:32 PM 985 Views

Nooo AgentApple - 14/11/2017 06:26:01 PM 920 Views
there really isn't a scenario that doesn't have high a likelyhood of sucking random thoughts - 15/11/2017 03:14:46 AM 1007 Views
You could go with Turin Turamber, And Beren and Luthien. *NM* AgentApple - 15/11/2017 02:34:16 PM 579 Views
Beren and Luthien would be great The Shrike - 15/11/2017 04:31:33 PM 914 Views
There's not a lot of Tolkien that isn't sad, though. Ghavrel - 17/11/2017 11:16:17 AM 975 Views
Perhaps we can do a series about the EntWives The Shrike - 17/11/2017 01:48:15 PM 961 Views
Also, if the network wants to go wild with Trump stand-ins they could do Numenor *NM* AgentApple - 15/11/2017 02:44:58 PM 568 Views

You got it damookster - 14/11/2017 11:39:46 PM 888 Views
Whether you're a goblin or whether you're a hobbit you're tired of the rings, tired of the rings *NM* Tom - 15/11/2017 04:27:12 AM 569 Views
Nicely done *NM* damookster - 15/11/2017 04:35:57 AM 534 Views
I heard it was going to be a musical Tom - 14/11/2017 10:28:28 PM 940 Views
I really do love that version of ROTK. The Shrike - 14/11/2017 10:53:50 PM 962 Views
It's a guilty pleasure, isn't it? Tom - 15/11/2017 04:25:23 AM 900 Views
I have no guilt. I'm done with guilt over what I do like and don't like! The Shrike - 15/11/2017 01:12:50 PM 1089 Views
I have to admit to being worried. nossy - 15/11/2017 08:46:57 AM 1576 Views
I think we all are. We have been with these characters for decades. The Shrike - 15/11/2017 01:15:12 PM 934 Views
Everything I hgave seen says a LOTR not a Hobbit prequel so I don't think you will get any first age random thoughts - 15/11/2017 02:42:50 PM 895 Views
Well, The Hobbit is a prequel. The Shrike - 15/11/2017 04:33:03 PM 948 Views
That is like calling the Fellowship a prequel to Two Towers random thoughts - 15/11/2017 07:09:51 PM 981 Views
It's not really a prequel if it was written before the thing it's a prequel to, is it? *NM* Tom - 17/11/2017 04:19:35 AM 591 Views
So we have two separate entities here. The books and the movies. The Shrike - 17/11/2017 01:49:45 PM 965 Views
I see your point ... but is it really a prequel without Jar-Jar? Tom - 17/11/2017 02:34:24 PM 953 Views
I wish they'd make a Pern series instead. Rebekah - 15/11/2017 03:33:46 PM 1276 Views
Re: I wish they'd make a Pern series instead. The Shrike - 15/11/2017 04:36:57 PM 921 Views
I want them to make 2112 into a movie *NM* random thoughts - 16/11/2017 01:10:23 AM 543 Views
A Temeraire series would seem easier to sell then "the main enemy is mindless space fungus". *NM* Dunstan - 16/11/2017 06:28:12 AM 564 Views
Hmm, not sure what to think of this! Anonymous2000 - 17/11/2017 02:00:36 AM 991 Views
