DRAGONLANCE best rpg book ever..This would just own to see caramon an raistlin, sturm brightblade, goldmoon an her hubby, forget the rest of the cast..This would be such a epic movie..If you guys never read any book pick this series up..Just remarkable..You would learn to hate raistlinn but love him all the same..Sturm brightblade is just a fantastic character that would draw you in..Hes a paladan if there ever was one..If any thing can come close to lord of the rings book wise its this book title..Please read if you havent you wont put it down..TRUST ME!!!!!!!!!!!

[QUOTE="cd_rom"][QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"] No it's not. It doesn't even have a director.sammyjenkis898

No one is signed on, but Jackson is supposed to be in talks to direct it.

Jesus, people really dont know the meaning of the word epic. Stop mentioning movies like Inception or even Sci Fi movies. Those are not epic movies. The word epic has a meaning. Inception is a great movie, maybe one of the best movies ever, but its not an epic movie. Drakes_Fortune

The term epic, as recognized by the Academy and film schools, is determined by a high budget, music, cast, and plot. It has nothing to do with genre. The term itself, epic, does originate from the old poems like The Odyssey but it was prior to genres such as adventure or science fiction. An epic is not limited to a single genre and there are certainly science fiction epics. 2001: A Space Odyssey comes to mind.

Inception is actually the direct definition of an epic. It has a massive budget (at $160 million), a vast and well produced musical score (Hans Zimmer isn't cheap), an ensemble cast (DiCaprio, Murphy, Page, Caine, Watanabe, Hardy, etc), and a plot that took Nolan eight years to write.

Lord of the Rings is an epic. So are Lawrence of Arabia, Titanic, The Godfather, Gone with the Wind, Black Hawk Down, The Departed, The Lion King and... well I could keep going. But these films are defined as epic by, again, the Academy and film institution.

What's all this? I thought "epic" was just short for "I don't care to articulate how I feel." Example: "epic lulz"

Ha! Well the term is so loosely thrown around these days, figured I'd give some incentive to the technicality behind the terminology.

Nothing beats two huge armies charging towards eachother with sharp things. :twisted:
