But yes, Zahn would be a challenge to translate into 3 movies, but if you gave it the Peter Jackson treatment, it could be done. Just have to film about 6 hours worth of material for each movie, then figure out how to cut that down to 3 hours per movie.
Then of course release the 18 hour 3 film version on Blu-Ray later on. :)
What is more interesting is hearing that 20th Century Fox forever owns the Original Star Wars movie (otherwise known as 'Episode: IV') rights, and owns the other rights until 2020 or something like that.
In general though it is good to see someone doing that in general though..
I guess that is the question that needs to start being asked in all respects.. how much is too much. Apparently George is one that thinks that something near 4 billion dollars is a bit much for one person.
It doesn't mean they own the complete rights to the movies. How much is too much? Personally I think the question is flawed, it implies that there is some amount of money that is "wrong" for anyone to have.
I consider that to be silly, if you earned it, more power to you, do anything you want with it.
It is nice that he wants to leave the world a better place, but it isn't required. That actually is what makes it such a good deed, because he doesn't have to do it, and is doing it anyway.
That is your choice I suppose, but you need a place for such discussions to be moved to other than the trash.
I understand that you guys are trying to keep things on-topic, but if you rule with too heavy a hand, people will lose interest. Sometimes things that get deleted, should be deleted... This was not one of those times.
I appreciate you have lot of passion for this topic, and have invested a lot in this conversation, but, seriously, this isn't the place for it.
Everything I've archived was posted on the last page, mostly in the last few hours; and it was, IMO, way off topic
But consider that if we go somewhere else to have these conversations, that is less time spent at brickset, less chance we will click on links to buy stuff and pay the bills.
Most forums have an off topic section for a reason, to keep people on the site but to allow conversations to drift off topic and to keep people engaged. In general, I think people will visit maybe 2 forums max on a regular basis, and for many people, Facebook is one of them.
If you want me to go away, just say so. But if not, don't tell me to go to other forums and web sites, that is just not good business.
All my opinion of course... :)
LEGO forum...LEGO discussions! Off topic discussions will only detract from the reason we are here, to enjoy our hobby. Conflict has arisen from genuine LEGO threads, allowing discussion of other subjects, such as politics, is only asking for friction.
