    Mairon/Sauron

    I've also been thinking, since we nixed the idea of Sauron being blonde (since Melkor is blonde) then we could totally use Bale as Annatar. That's still Sauron, but him when he's more cunning and more corrupted which I think Bale would play nicely.

    Mairon/Sauron

    I don't necessarily think they appear young...in my mind 30-40 cause that seems to be the perfect age elves stay at and the Valar fitted themselves to look like elves. I think that the elves youth does speak to how old they are and how much time has passed. I mean you have legolas who looks...

    Mairon/Sauron

    I think I'm saying the same thing as you; I'm just saying a little differently! :p I didn't mean we change actors until he takes on his Annatar like state and then obviously when he's not allowed to take a pleasing form again. I think I was cramming those two together when I'm talking, makes...

    Mairon/Sauron

    I cannot get over this! I love this! It fits very well with the Elrond quote, "For nothing was evil in the beginning, even Sauron was not so." We need to explain this. This is especially true being as Sauron/Mairon is my favorite character of Silmarillion/LOTR! I have a personal problem because...

    Mairon/Sauron

    I like Jonathan Meyers...I just worry he's a bit too old for Mairon. Perhaps that because of his role on the Tudors and City of Bones (Oy, that movie!)...He actually would make a great Vanya elf I think because he has such distinctive features.

    Mairon/Sauron

    I blame Peter Jackson for my lack of interest in Radagast's character! But you totally re-intrigued me! I actually think Eddie might be better for Radagast as I've been thinking over the past few weeks because I think that Mairon needs to have a bit temper and a darker side...not sure Redmayne...

    Mairon/Sauron

    In response to Azure Skye Melkor pic post: Yes, I see Mairon as kind of taking things people say personally and is always self-conscious when Aulë or other smiths say something that might be a slight. I see the "seduction of Sauron" as Melkor starts twisting things Aulë and the other smiths...

    Mairon/Sauron

    Haakon - could we make Christian Bale Melkor??? That last pic is just spot on for Melkor as he's looking down on Manwë disapprovingly! This goes great with AzureSkye's idea! Is this the pale hair you were thinking of AzureSkye? Your Melkor pic has me on board with the light hair for Melkor I...

    Mairon/Sauron

    AzureSkye23- I love the red hair (with the freckles!)! ;) But definitely don't want Mairon to be blonde or brunette! Silver would make him look weirdly old or like Lucius Malfoy or a Targaryen. I was originally picturing Sauron with black hair and once he's Sauron, and not Mairon, I think that...

    Mairon/Sauron

    The difficulty casting Sauron is that we're going to need multiple actors. This is because Sauron changes his appearance and name A LOT. You have Mairon, Annatar, Sauron, The Necromancer, etc. First, (And most importantly to me!), is the casting of Mairon (the Admirable). I want to go with...

    Recasting Jackson's Actors?

    Will we recast Jackson's actors? Viggo Mortensen for Aragorn? Sir Ian McKellen for Gandalf? Sean Astin for Sam? We aren't following the CME, but will we use its actors?

    Maeglin

    Junesong - Spot on with Cillian Murphy! I'm envisioning him with some longer hair and he's got that perfect broody/indifferent vibe that I get from Maeglin. Or is that just me??? Here's kind of how I envisioned him (this is totally Silm Art I bummed off Tumblr - it's not mine!). Kate J - I...

    Offer to Do Narrative Version of Script

    Thanks Kimberly! I'm an English teacher, so after grading numerous papers on grammar all day, I'm not efficient at "grading" my own! I'd love to have an analytical mind look it over! I'm so excited! Do you have a good email I could send drafts to?

    Episode 0-2

    Are we going to give each narrator their own "writer's voice?" Could we change storytelling styles per narrator since their age and cultures differ? Personally, I wouldn't mind a voiceover if it was done in the same manner as it was in the beginning of 300. It would have to be a small story...

    Offer to Do Narrative Version of Script

    Hi! I'm not fabulous at script writing, but I'd love to do a narrative/novel version of each episode (in sort of a fanfic format!) I could really incorporate detail about sets and costumes that we're developing and I'd post one chapter per season episode! I would put the dialogue and details...

    Frame Narrative

    I adore the Aragorn frame idea! That's been a big question on my mind: Is the frame narrative going to be told pre or post- LOTR (or even pre/post-Hobbit)? It would make sense to have Sam or Aragorn telling these stories to their children after Sauron has fallen and the elves have left, but I...
