#4: Adapting my book

As someone who would be trying to turn The Hobbit into a movie, I would make it either a TV show or a Movie, as with a TV show I could split the novel up into sections, and be able to cover the entirety of the book within a TV show. As a movie however, it has already been proven that The Hobbit could be split up into at least three separate movie and accurately cover almost all the events in the book, with the note that in the movie several changes and additions were added into the current movie. Without said changes, the movie could be cut down to a more accurate two-set movie, or perhaps a single movie. As a director, I also feel as though I would have to limit the number of changes and cuts to an absolute minimum, removing what is only necessary to keep the flow of the TV show/movie going. To ensure that the audience would be captivated, the cast would require a group of diverse and talented individuals. Re-using some of the actors from the movie series would be preferable, as many actors were more than adept at their roles. The soundtrack would also have to be similar to what is currently played in the movies, great epic music that sound like it's taken from the mind of a bard or minstrel. Something that captures the grandeur of the world that they're in, while also fitting with the fantastic adventure that the group goes through. Lastly, the true challenge wouldn't be truly any of those things, but instead it would be much more simple. It would have to show that it wasn't the plot of the book that was spectacular, or what threat was conquered, but the journey that took place and the change that happened in all places of the world touched by this company of companions.
