It would need to be spin offs or prequels (First Age maybe, do they have the rights?) The Jackson movies aren't long enough ago to demand a remake.
I am looking forward to the Rohirrim animated film that's in production, that's fleshing the world out a bit.
I wish, instead of making good movie adaptation remakes, they'd redo shit movies based on good books.It would need to be spin offs or prequels (First Age maybe, do they have the rights?) The Jackson movies aren't long enough ago to demand a remake.

But I’d want one of the best modern day fantasy novel writers (not Martin) penning a treatment, someone who knows Tolkien lore well.
Eddings maybe? Robin Hobb?To me that is Brandon Sanderson but I doubt he would do it.
Eddings maybe? Robin Hobb?
I forgot that. I thoughtDavid Eddings? He has been dead since 2009.
I wouldn't be against Robin Hobb.
I suppose people want orcs and goblins, right?
Never mind, just realised that A New Shadow would work better as a series, set 105 years after lord of the rings, following the decay of society.

Interesting...was that the sequel he started writing but never finished? That would give a fair bit of room for original story threads to be worked in.
Yep. I wish he had not have abandoned it. I would like to see how he envisioned his world post-war. We have some glimpses of what happened but not a thorough story or even an outline.

Need to read the Silmarillion. Not easy, in the way 19th century novels aren't. But the there are good story threads in there. It helps understand what is going on in the Rings of Power.I'm interested to see a map of them middle earth. It obviously was different back then.

I read a couple of time back in school, PEDs helped.
There are vignettes that would make excellent episodes of a longer series. (well scripted and directed as requirements obviously)The First Age and the battle against Morgoth would be good.
that's so 90s and Starbucks (Seattle was part of my balliwick)Tea and coffee?

first season of this was utterly awful. I have little hope it turns around.
It looks crap, tbh. I'll still watch it but with no expectations what-so-ever.
There's an asian looking elf in it. Will cause debate
