Based on Christopher Tolkien's litigious experiences with the current film producers (and anyone else who infringes on Tolkien trademarks, for that matter), not to mention the unabashed failure of Bakshi's cartoon, as well as his father's noted disgust with an early film script, I can't see the Tolkien Family Trust every granting film rights to material from The Silmarillion.
Nope, can't see it happening at all. At least not within CJRT's lifetime. Sorry, but ''a snowball's chance in hell'' is the apt metaphor here.
