Thanks for the heads-up. At least with Ridley Scott it has a chance to be well done.

Ellester: Right on. The same can actually be said of movie "remakes" as well. But there are times a movie is better than a book, too. An open mind is the best approach. Some examples: - The H.G. Wells Book and original movie "The War of the Worlds" are very different. I loved the...

Agreed, Warmark. But there has never been any proof he *is not* the reincarnation of Berek. A friend had an intersesting idea twist... one we will only be able to acknowledge or not after the next three books are out. He thought it possible the history of the Land is a cyclical story, where TC will ...

The UT engine handles detail-at-distance better than the Q3 engine. But, perhaps we are looking at this wrong. Perhaps a series of scenario games: - Lord Mhoram's Victory - Fight Satansfist's army - Journey to Mount Thunder - Fight your way through Mount Thunder to retrieve the Staff of Law - Battle...

Yes, but it would be tough to have a minimum hardware requirement of a nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra. Not everyone has $350+ to spend on a graphics card.

As a Quake 3 Arena player, I would agree - the engine is quite good and flexible. There's a reason the game has lasted this long. However, The UT2004 engine is more up-to-date - and capable.

...any scene that involves going to a theater to see it. Particularly: - Nom (would have to wait for movies 5 and 6) - The wraiths in Andelain - The battle at Doriendor Corishev - Brinn vs. the Guardian - Under Mount Thunder (particularly the retrieval of the Second Ward) - Satansfist squeezing gree...

Fantasy Bedtime Hour is hilarious. However, you can tell the love for the books they really have. SRD has referenced the FBH site himself, so he must see the parody/love mix himself.

Mhoram's POV in TPTP is not the only one in that book alone. Recall Triock's travails to the Unfettered One's cave and visit by your firendly neighborhood raver - all from Triock's POV.

I'm guessing (hoping) he has been too busy writing to respond to any GI submissions lately...

I *could* see a McFarlane series of TC, though.

You have all missed an important fact regarding the Elohim, the Tree and its guardianship: The Bloodguard did not exist (at least as Bloodguard) when Berek put the guardian in place. In this way, and many, many others, the Bloodguard have been at the root of the failure of the Land's protectors - al...

Myste - thanks, though there is little to buy right now! I'm having a blast with these. Here are a few for the DVD release of the movies: - The "Lord Foul Punching Bag" - Each time you hit it, it laughs and gets a little smaller. - The "Mhoram in Battle" action figure - push the ...

Oh yeah - it means "The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe"

Sergio, I think I know what you are trying to say, even if your "profanity" is spelled wrong! (m**turb*****). I was more thinking the imagery Kubrik created with "Barry Lyndon", "A Clockwork Orange" and "Full Metal Jacket". And Sylvanus, I am a huge fan of Lyn...

Any actor, any time?

Lon Chaney Jr. as TC
or
Jack Nicholson as TC

...and don't forget these favorites: - The "Haven Farm" set, complete with pre-urinated studio in the woods, and burning barn. - The "Ur-Vile Wedge" set, including a loremaster with a stave that has Real Spurting Action. - The "Orcrest" - a revival of the Pet Rock, sure...

I'm not going to flame, but offer some additional perspective. - You are right, there is not the "awareness" of TCTC there was of LOTR. But, had you read "The Sentinal" before seeing "2001: A Space Odyssey"? How many people read "d'Entre les Morts" before seei...

Oh yeah, action figures would go over well. Especially if they did series like was done for The Matrix. Could you see: - The "Covenant/Lena Rape Scene", complete with red soiled thighs - The "Satansfist At War" action figures, complete with flashing green fist-held stone and ston...

Thewlis has the right visage and age - but Covenant needs to be an American (or, at least speak like one). Might make a better Callindrill.
