I hadn't heard that (though I'm not surprised) and yeah. The Tolkien Estate must be absolutely frothing by now. But even if it wasn't PJ directing it, it would still be something I would love to see. Because the shiny and the pretty would be incredible, and even though a ton of it would have to be changed, it would be worth it.
What we have to go on for royal names and titles doesn't add up to much at all. And what might be commonplace for royalty in our world doesn't necessarily hold for those in the Tolkien-verse. Though I suppose Aragorn's Random Quenya Word eventually evolved into "of the House of Telcontar" rather than having all of his heirs named (for example) Eldarion Peredhellion Telcontar etc.
Lol, you should! My paper copy of The Silmarillion is a fairly ancient hardback that I inherited off my Dad. (Apparently he didn't make it past page two of the Ainulindale XD) I miss it so. Reading on Kindle is kind of weird.
I know, right? I'm really looking forward to it now. It seems so less daunting now that there's a person I can bounce ideas off. Now I just need to actually have the ideas... XD
