Looking forward to this.

Not sure what is up with the comments...either a botnet or some very dedicated and disgruntled fans. But lets face it - making any part of Silmarillion into a movie or series is bound to piss off a lot of people. If I was a hardcore Tolkien fan, I suppose I would want them to leave that book alone.
