Oh! A movie, what's it about!? (lol, just kidding! n.n)
I say 2-D. I mean, I like 3-Demension and all, but some beautiful movies come out of 2-Demension...like Balto and, my favorite, the Lion King! It may also be easier, and come out much nicer! Because of the coming of depth and 3-D (like Shrek and Toy Story,) 2-D is becoming less and less popular! I like 2-D, personally, and due to the fact 3-D would pose too much as a challenge.

Hey guys, Sudak made it clear he wasn't selling anything...just to remind you. What sort of animation software is this? Does the company have like a warranty or something of the sort?

What's the movie going to be rated? How long do you think it'll take to come out? Who else is starring? Are you going to change the plot at all? You aren't going to leave out characters are you? Or scenes? I hate that in movies! That's why Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings stink...the only reasons really...except that Harry is really corny in the third movie and Shelob the spider didn't talk AND Tom Bombadil was cut out AND Merry and Pippin didn't die and come back to life like they were supposed to. That pic up there is good, but the claws REALLY need some work. They look completely fake. What's Brassa going to look like? How about the other characters? How soon will it be in theatres? How long did it take for you to finish the music. About the pic again...it's features are kinda twisted. Is Mr. David Clement-Davies going to help you? He needs to. If he does, they'll never need a remake because he'll describe to you what all of the characters should look/sound/act like. It'll be a big help. Please post actually "clips" from the movie here! I really wanna see if you're doing the job well.

Wow! A movie huh? That's great!
2-d and 3-d animation don't really bother me. I really don't care what sort of dimensions the movie is made in, as long as it looks good.
As for getting the help from DCD, that would probably be a good idea. Like Farrah said, it'd probably make the movie look a little better.
The only bad thing about making a movie would be you'd sorta be stripping a person new to the book of their imagination of the characters. Even if DCD was helping you invision them the way he created them, I think it would still take something away from the book. Not that I'm complaining or anything, I've just read a lot of good books where, when they make a movie, the characters don't look even close to the way I imagined them. But... don't listen to me, I'm rambling away. It'd be cool to see it come out on film too

Again, I agree with somebody and have other things to say! ((Am I predictable or what?)) The movies of ALOT of books have been trashed (take Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and the Series of Unfortunate Events for example...they all stunk because they either added scenes, left out scenes, didn't have the author to help them, wacked up the character's profiles, actions, etc, or all of thee above! It's wack! I agree that it would take away from the actual essence of the book, and kind of stereotype the characters for those who wish to read the book in the future. I am not dissagreeing with the actual idea of a movie! No. Actually, I just wish to ensure that the movie is good so that the readers and viewers are not severely ticked off and your movie-making career trashed at the end of the film. Again, you need DCD! Without him, the movie will suck, I assure you! Don't try to do it without him! You need him to answer questions and make sure that you don't screw up so the above does not happen! Heed my warning!

I completely agree with Farrah, DCD should most definatly be involved, seen as he wrote the story and the characters belong to him. If he doesnt want any involvements in the movie, then It should definatly not be made, he might not even want a movie of it... Seen as Farrah asked alot of questions up there -really wants to know the answers to those questions to- maybe you should put all that infomation on your site... I know you have a site which has some info on the movie, and some music...If I remember rightly, Although I haven't checked the link in months, the link wasn't working for me last time I looked at it, and even when it did work there wasn't much on the movie there either... ^^ If its done right I'm sure this'll be my all time fav movie!!

I think I'll probably cry when "L" dies (for those of you here that didn't read it, I don't want to spoil it, so I'll refer to that particular varg as L) It'll be so sad...it was bad enough in the book but when you're actually watching the inevitable...*wails in anguish knowing how terribly melancholy it will be*...

Wow, I've been out of this thread for a bit... Ok where to start... first of all, I'm having some trouble trying to personally get in touch with DCD. second, yes 2d is now what I will officialy declare the movie in. third, the music is going to be totally reworked into a more realistic and flowing score, as soon as I find someone capable and willing. I am going to upload a new website for the movie soon and will include applications for anybody that wants to become involved and has some talent. Hopefully DCD will see this and I will finally be in one on one contact with him. I am in the process with one other here from TS, designing the characters (concept art). I do believe after having a few examples for each character I may open a poll to the public addressing which they believe is the closest to their imaginiation while reading the book and also what they would improve, add, take away, etc. just a quick couple of comment for ya

Referring to the Varg as "L" still gives it away... >.<
Anyhoo, I can play the harp...but I ain't that good on it. Perhaps if you could find someone to play the harp for you...I'm sure that would be lovely. I love the sound of a harp, and it would give its own mystical feel to it...though I am not entirely sure if they play the harp in Transylvania (or if it is widely used among those parts)...

The harp would be good during the more tranquil scens, but also sad ones, like perhaps when Brassa dies, because she had such a good life, but she carried her burden and it ended up killing her.
Um...-blushes but raises paw- I can play the piano, and if you end up having humans/horses, I'm not bad at drawing the latter.

Hmm...Sudak, do you want me to send you the first three scenes? So far, nothing but dialougue has been changed...I'm trying to get together a style... Still nothing from DCD? Did you try Firebird, the publisher? Maybe you'll get a better response...
