Just a small survey. Now that they've announced they're going to make a new trilogy after JRRTolkien's works, which epoch or story in particular would you prefer to be filmed? Say, from the Silmarillion? Many are citing the saga of Beren and Luthien as an obvious candidate plot, others are saying the saga of the Children of Hurin, or Feanor and the Silmarils... or why not Acalabeth, the fall of Numenor. All in all, there's lots of material out there. So... any ideas?

And what titles would you give to these films?

WTF!

I hope they do a better job than Jackson. Beren and Luthien is the obvious story, but Turin's story is human, epic, and tragic beyond anything in that book this side of the death of the two trees.

The Fall of Gondolin could be a series in itself.

Game of Thrones without the swearing and sex. Maybe a bit too C20th for now, but who knows?
