  1. There is still hope. Thanks to the Internet, you can write a compelling story, your friend who can draw and a good visual designer can collaborate with you to storyboard it, a good voice coach and some voice actors can perform the dialogue, and then the CGI artists can model and animate the story. None of this requires any two people to be in the same room at the same time. The only part that takes a long time is the CGI work. You release the preview reel on all of the video sites (YouTube, Rumble, Vimeo, etc.), and then release the rest as 5-minute episodes over the next couple years.

  2. The other difference is that Tolkien firmly believed that man has a spiritual component to his character, and that this is why things like courage and especially honor are important. Modern Hollywood, because of the choices that Hollywood's leaders have made for their lives, firmly believes that man is just a clever animal. There is no honor among animals, just the false notion of honor that makes people claw their way up the social order.

  3. The only weak points in the film were where the film deviated from the book. That's how good the underlying story is.
