   Is the Silmarillion based on a true story?

   • Next to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion is the most well-known work of Tolkien’s.

   Is the Silmarillion a good book?

   • The Silmarillion, on the whole, is an establishment of the deep lore of Middle-Earth, and while the individual stories outlined within it would make for excellent films or series, the book as a whole is far too expansive to tackle in a single film. Even a trilogy of films wouldn’t be able to coherently capture all the details of the book.

   So there’s a lot of talk about the Silmarillion being impossible to be adapted to live action film or even TV show. Well, what about a more fluid and free flowing medium like animation? Like a long running anime series?

   The first thing to know about The Silmarillion is that it isn’t one story that follows one character from beginning to end. It can be broadly considered to be one story, but that story is that of Middle-Earth and the world of Arda as a whole. The Silmarillion is essentially the Middle-Earth equivalent of The Bible. It tells the creation story of th...
