Well, thank you for reading and sorry for the long paragraph, if you think i am just saying nonsense i wouldn't mind at all, it is just what appears to me after taking a while to think of it.
I often make some attempts in my mind about it, but, for now, I don't really have the time to get involved in such director-like matters :PI never knew you had dealings with directing Mr. Walkure hahaha xD xD
I can nonetheless modify a bit the title of this thread, if you want, in order to make it a wider space for possible upcoming films and speculations based on fan-thought scripts :)I would definetly be more than glad to have you change the title to make it suitable for this rich content' discussion. I have no idea of the new title, but any Silmarillion friendly title would do the work hahaha, i know you will come up with something great ;)
The destiny of this topic is all in your hands, aminetude xD
And the Oscar for the best Hobbit fighting scene goes to... *drums* ...aminetude!!! xDThanks hoho96, that's very nice of you xD.
I would definitely have liked this more than the weird sweaty Galadriel.
I always imagined the story of Tuor (and Earendil) to be a very good possibility for a film adaption. If someone wanted to make a trilogy, the story could be split up like this:I like this, very much ! Now we only need a competent director to take up arms and start making the movies :) hahahaha
1) The first film would tell the story of Tuor's journey to Gondolin, covering his youth in Hithlum and his travels through Nevrast and Beleriand, with the Orc ambush near the Sirion being the climax of the film. At the beginning, a short prologue about the Nirnaeth Arnoediad could be used to introduce the characters of Turgon and Huor and their fateful connection. The film would end with Tuor being escorted into the Hidden Valley. The main characters would be Tuor and Voronwe.
2) The second film would be about Tuor's life in Gondolin, with the battle and fall of the city being the climax. The prologue could be about Aredhel and provide the backstory for the main antagonist, Maeglin. The main characters would be Tuor, Turgon, Idril and Maeglin.
3) The third film would be about Earendil and Elwing, with Tuor fading into the background. The main character here would be Earendil.
I think those three films would work well as a cohesive narrative and would not require much background knowledge, I believe.

I don't think that (from a dramatic point of view) Tolkien's work is that great, apart from (obviously) the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit and to an extent the Children of Húrin.I will gladly adress all your Points in the Lore Corner as soon as I have a proper Computer (right now I'm on travelling gear), because as far as I see it, everything you mention is actually explained in the Silmarillion. ;)

However to be perfectly honest, I doubt, that these logical problems can be explained. As I was saying: The points I already mentioned where just the ones I could remember quickly enough. ;)
1. The Oath was not something so simple to break since it was sworn directly to Ilúvatar, with Manwë and Varda as witnesses.
2. The Noldor don't get immediately mad for no reasons; there are some subtle elements involved that don't refer solely to Fëanor or the Silmarils themselves.
And you, Melkor, are directly involved too in the discord among them xD
3. Melkor is evil both by choice and by destiny.
It's a bit complicated to explain, but it's also a recurrent theme in Christianity.
Melkor chose to follow the path of the evil by his free will, but this is something Ilúvatar has always known/foreseen from the beginning with its Omniscience, and the Evil is a necessary part of the Universe just like the Good is, so that the Evil is metaphysically necessary.
Yeah, and I liked the movie (as well as the Hunt for Gollum), but they were just "Extras" there. I would like to see them as the main characters of a wild Adventure. ^^I actually liked these fan made movies too, even if they werent graphicly very good, but those people really did a good job trying to make them, it would be really wonderful to encourage other fans of creatins such short videos. If i had the opportunity, i would do something about the forging of the rings of power, having Celembribor, Annatar ( Sauron ), Galadriel , Elrond and Cirdan as main charachters, some dwarf lords will also add a nice touch. If only i could :(
Maybe a tale of how Elladan wanted to avenge his mother and thus lured his brother into the misty mountains on a Scout Mission, just to kill as many orcs as possible. Elrohir goes along at first, but realizes his Brothers pain just in time to save him from the fangs of a great beast of the mountain, and his own death.
Something like that. ^^
I know those videos.Yes that's very true, i am still now watching all his 29 videos about middle earth, i really like how he explains them, very simple but beautiful at the same time.
The author has a great style in explaining things and displaying graphical features :)
