A valid point!

My guess is CT will get the money (Newline have, after all, gone belly-up and been bought out along with their debts), since the first three franchise movies have achieved a turnover of – reputedly – a billion dollars EACH, and I can’t see a Hollywood movie company worrying themselves about parting with piddling small change when there are such massive profits at stake.

But what still fascinates me most is what Third Age info he thinks is going to be in the second film that could possibly only be found in the Silmarillion. It will be interesting to find out in due course. Or maybe he’s simply putting up a target to see if anything hits it…
