That's what I'm afraid of.....
Personally, I'd much rather several miniseries'. Not necessarily one per book - but at least four of them total....

well as far as financing 12 movies .... let's put it this way. Each of the Lord of the Rings movies made almost 1 billion dollars. So successful in fact that now that they are doing the Hobit they are actually splitting it into 2 movies instead of 1. The only regret they have is that they don't have another 9 books to do lmao.
If they do the first one well and it draws a large audience the money will be there for the rest. If they screw up the first one the series will probalby die a cinematic death at that point. Hollywood isn't very forgiving if the first in a series flops.
As far as the length of the movie goes what is wrong with all you Attention Deficit people that can't stand a long movie lol ....... I for one feel like i get my money worth when a movie is a decent length and as long as it is fun the longer the better. Although I must admit when i went to see Return of the King in theatres it was a bit late when the movie started and i was praying for it to end about 30 mins before it actually did lol.

Well, it was ending for thirty minutes ;P
Hey, if any of them have the guts to actually do it in 12 films, I'm happy to support that. I just don't want them to screw with it.

I think if they got everything together first. Like all 12 movies, then just kinda went at it, it wouldnt be too bad...

computer generated? are you mad woman? no offense, but either do a proper real live series or don't bother... and yes, by proper real live series, i mean taking the time and budget to actually film all the books and not try and wrap it in 2 or 3 movies. There's to much background in the books to frick it up like that...

I would like to see it be a once a week seiries like they are doing with the sword of truth saga.
I just don't think they could cover the detail in a 1000 page Robert Jordan book

You guys can go ahead and laugh, but I like to mess around with Photoshop and I recently discovered Windows Movie Maker and started playing with that too. I made 2 sort of WoT movies based on the Roleplaying site. The Towers, that I write on. So, enjoy them or pick fun at them, but I say if you want to pick on them then show me something you made thats better. www.youtube.com/profile?user=edvar11&view=videos
