So I was sitting here in my living room watching a Chinese drama on my computer, simultaneously the first Lord of the rings movie started on the television...
So how do you think China would do in making of a LOTR adaptation?
They do have a history of spectacular cinematography, as well as some powerful CGI if done tastefully...
Also who would play the parts...
It was just an interesting thought...
So I just dropped it here :P

Seriously, anyone attempting to make an adaptation without the approval of Tolkien Enterprise will get sue by them. As a matter fact, they had sued New Line Cinema, the makers of LOTR films for USD20,000,000 just because they think New Line short-charged them profits from the film.
On a different arc, China has hired Barrie Osborne, one of the producer of the LOTR film trilogy to act as production consultant for their USD460,000,000 Fengshen Trilogy - hopefully we will get to see the first film in 2020.
Oh wow, I was just wondering about the artistically and astetically, like not really that they would re-make it. Of course they would have to get permissions and so to actually make it.
But for me this post was just a thought - experiment nothing more, as far as I know China is not going to be making a remake anyways :p
Thanks for posting tho
