I too would like to see some more fantasy movies being made, whether they be Forgetten Realms or some other setting. Hopefully The Lord of the Rings' great success will help to show Hollywood that there is a large demand for these types of movies.

Although I wasn't a *die-hard* fan of the Drizzt books, I still liked them very much. They just seemed to taper off in quality with the later books, and Drizzt became too powerful and holier-than-thou-art in my opinion. BUT, I think the Drizzt novels would translate very well onto the big screen, with all the action and swirling scimtar goodnees. A Drizzt movie starting with his childhood in the Underdark, then his escape and first few adventures on the surface all the way up to him meeting with Bruenor in the Dale would friggin OWN. The sequel would of course carry on from there, with the Crystal Shard, the attack of the Drow, and Drizzt's epic fights with Entreri... I can't wait
