I think that The Silmarillion would make a much better TV series or miniseries. There are way too many sub-plots and characters for it to be made into a movie, and still stay faithful to the book. The way that the book is set up, each chapter, or each couple of chapters, could be made into an episode in a TV series. I think that would probably work out better.
