Tim's Dragonlance Chronicles Fancast
This blog will serve as the home to my attempt to fancast a trilogy of movies based on the Dragonlance Chronicles book series by Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman. Growing up this was the first book series that I can remember caring about and reading over and over again. My hope is that the huge success of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies along with television properties such as Game of Thrones, The Shannara Chronicles, Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings and The Witcher will prove the time is right to introduce the world to another classic fantasy franchise.
It appears that I am not the only one to feel this way. Just check out the link below from a very well know website...
This is my second attempt at casting a Dragonlance film series. Almost every fancast out there tends to ignore the fact that most of these characters were around 22 to 26 years old (Tika is only 16). With that in mind, I went back to the drawing board and tried to make choices that were more realistic based on the character ages. Please keep that in mind when evaluating the fact that Henry Cavill isn't Sturm or Tom Hiddleston isn't Raistlin.
