A bit Akallabeth action would be nice to see.
Then again, a bit Beren Lúthien romantic would be nice as well.
If Hobbit, Estel hould be included.

Akallabeth... ooooo..... that would be spectacular. Tough to do right, but spectacular.
Beren and Luthien would be nice as well, but that would be much better in context than as a stand-alone story, and I don't know that anybody will provide the capital to cover the entire content of the Silmarillion (at least in a satisfactory way).

This is a very plausible treatment of the Akallabeth as a movie I found it really interesting.

Allakabeth would be interesting, but far too confusing for the people who didn't read it. That's why I'm sticking with the Hobbit.

I have always thought an animated Silmarillion series would be a viable option. I am surprised it has never been attempted or even spoken about in Anime.
Another option would be either the story of Turin or Tuor, though non-Sil readers would have a very hard time making a connection to LotR.

Silmarillion as a cartoon? I've never thought of that one, though it'd be quite...interesting.

I voted all of them. BUT the thing is I don't think anyone could pull off the whole Silmarillion. It just doesn't seem possible, I guess. Like the Ainulindale.. how the hell could they pull that off?? But I think it would be interesting to see 'Of Beren and Luthien', and I guess the Allakabeth would be exciting, but mostly only to those who have read it. So they'd have to pick and choose which story to put to film.
As for the Hobbit, I say go for it. I think it'd have to be Peter Jackson along with Ian McKellen as Gandalf doing it though.

I'm thinking the story of Tuor and the fal of Gondollin would be quite suitable. We follow Tuor being brought up by elves, then his life as a slave. Then how he find finds Gondolin. Throw in a romance with Idril and Maeglins jealousy and final betrayal. If you want a big batlle at the end, you could always show the war of wrath...

I voted 'Other' as I would like to see a better making of Lord of the Rings. The ones that PJ Boyens & Co made are a nice fanfic, and with some changes in the screenplay, could have been much much better.
