 I do agree that the copying of the PJ visual style is a disappointment (to say nothing of the lack of dwarves in these films...such a scandal), but I'm hoping that if these projects are successful there will be more like them by individuals who are willing to break from the PJ mold. Who knows, maybe *we'll* get inspired to make our own film.

We watched those trailers with Noggie last night... amazingly well made, both of them, but I must say I was a little disappointed still. The Hunt for Gollum looked so good, but they had copied the characters to the last detail (imitating PJ's cast's voices etc), so I could not really enjoy it (like, I can enjoy PJ's stuff most of the time, but a bad copy of it... no
 ).Born of Hope looked better in this regard, but some things in it made me raise my eyebrows a bit... I guess that what you get in originality you lose in canonicity...  Anyway, it seems more interesting to me out of these two films, also because it seems to have a lot more of a plot than the other one.Quote:

Well,I have to admit that I liked the PJ-ish look of the trailers.It brings me back to the good days of December 2003...Former glories...
This feeling is exactly what ''Born of hope''mishes.I wish them luck as well,though! Oh,by the way,was Gilraen fair-haired?

Thanks for the link, Rumil.
But what's this! They have anticipated--possibly upstaged-- the "bridge" film that PJ et al were rumoured to be writing!  Quote:
