How about when TC utters NOM? Imagine the fear, dread, and anticipation on the cast sfaces when those words are uttered and the silence that ensues. then when NOM actuall comes??!!!!!!!!!

The part right at the start when Covenant suddenly finds himself on Kevins Watch would be mind-blowing. The entire Sandhold experience would be wonderful if done right, and also the isle of The One Tree, when they first see it at the bottom of that hole. They'd all make amazing cinematic scenes, just trying to imagine the fight between Nom and the two Haruchai Ceer and Hergrom, it looks awesome in my head but how would Nom be translated to the screen?

There are so many to choose from that it would take a veritable archive to list them all! There have been quite a few good ones mentioned, including one of my fave's, Lord Mhorams' Victory. But only if they had the right person playing him, someone who could have the hotly prophetic eyes and the stature that I have envisioned within my personal minds' eye. The panorama as seen from Kevins' Watch, TC's victory over the Illearth Stone, The Ranyhyn rearing in homage (fear?), and so many countless others would all be magnificent to behold. But it is probably better that they remain within my minds' eye, for there is unfortunately no way that they could get together a cast to do proper justice to the two chrons., or even one of the books for that matter.

And the image each and every one of us holds within is different, but having said that the LoTR films work and Elrond is played by an Agent in the Matrix!!! Ya'see it works regardless who you use as long as they can act the part well. Maybe Harrison Ford as Covenant, ok so he was Indiana Jones, in every way opposite to Thomas Covenant but if he could pull it off, why not him? He'd only be playing a part, the rest would be down to direction/production. Of all the films which have been made from books primarily, how many have truly done the book justice at the end of all that, not many. I think the whole series could work spectacularly if done right, even with the rape scene at the start. As long as viewers weren't expecting anything false it wouldn't put people off. When LoTR was imminent there was lots of talk of ,'oooohh, you must read the books first' But with TCTC I think you really would need to've read it, be under no illusions, it would be dark,gloomy and hard to accept, but to those who appreciate the books it'd be glorious.

I'd go with:
1 - The Great Caamora (both FF's and the dead's)
2 - HT's first sight of the enemy's army in IW
3 - The heights of Skywier crumbling in IW
4 - the Raver hung at Gallow's Howe in IW
5 - when the Ranyhyn rear in LFB

The scene where Findail and Vain become one after Vain speaks and Findail is fighting like mad, then he gives up in a dignified manner and faces his fate.
The scene where Troy sees Foul's army from atop KW and tries to leap off out of despair, then Mhoram practically has to slap his face off to get him to calm down.
Elemesnedene..........the maidan......Callowail..........
The First when she lifts her new glaive from its case in Braithairealm. Ah, her eyes glinting with danger!
The Nicor......
The impassioned pleas of the dead imprisoned on the ice floes of the Soulbiter
The last underground rhysh of the Waynhim and their secret garden and zoo
Too many scenes to name, and they all make me want to cry........

LFB: when the Firelions are coming down mount Thunder before TC leaves the land.
and the celebration of Spring.
and Foamfollowers Rampage during the Battle of Soaring Woodhelvin.
IEW: Mhorams Battle in the shattered hills. which for the most part goes untold, ( i would like a Short story version of that too)
of course Hyrims Journey to Coercri or Tulls Tale.
the battle of Dooms Retreat .Doriendor Korishev, and the Last stand at Garroting Deep.
PTP: The battle of Callendril during the Fall of Revelwood. (Mhoram Mentions How Mighty Callendril is and I would love to see it)
when Satansfist Shows up at the gates of Revelstone.
The Battle of the Waynhim destroying the Ration Trenches of Satans fists Army, while Mhorams group rides out to kill the Raver.
and the Battle between TC and Lord Foul.
I left out about 80 or more scenes that would also be very good to see on Screen.
