What exactly has Stevie said about the "Rhiannon Project"??
 

What exactly has Stevie said this "Rhiannon Project" would be all about? :woohoo:

Is she just getting involved with doing a soundtrack for someone else's film
or is she going to be a part of this film?

Will she pull out those "Rhiannon songs" ... Like 3 Birds of Rhiannon, Forest of Black Roses... etc
???

:lol: I have so many questions

She said years ago that the songs were already written but that she backed out of the project because she could not get a good screenplay and the Hollywood people gave her the creeps. So, I think that is all that is needed - at least it was then.

Um...I was thinking when I just read about it that it has to be animated, right? I mean, really....gosh, I hope so. A la The Last Unicorn.... :D

This sounds like an amazing project......... :angel:

I also heard once that she was thinking about making it a stage musical.

But I've never seen a definitive (or even realistic) list of which songs were specifically for the project, other than Forest, 3 Birds/Maker, and of course Rhiannon.

Anyone have any idea on that?

Blue Water and Forsaken Love, too.

How about claymation Unicorns.

Wow, can you imagine Stevie and Rankin/Bass (the animators of Last Unicorn) teaming up? That would be amazing! Animated Rhiannon would rule.

If it's going to be animated, she needs to get in touch with Hayao Miyazaki or just can the whole idea.

love your sig...I've been listening to Tori's The Beekeeper a lot lately. Loving her recent live at AOL sessions.

Wow, I couldn't disagree with you more. If that happens the spirit of rhiannon will turn out to be some stupid elemental figure as a twist ending. Wow, I have hated everything that man has done from Princess Monoke to Spirited Away to Howl's Moving Castle. Yuck! What he does is usually interesting but not very entertaining and not usually a good story.

I saw Moving Castle the other night and thought it was superb. Storywise it wasn't nearly as good as Spirited Away, but I still liked it. Considering that Rankin and Bass haven't done anything in nearly twenty years, Miyazaki is the best I can come up with for the job and I think the results would be outstanding.

What's wrong with Hanna-Barbera? :shrug: ;)

Thinking about it, "Rhiannon" would definitely work best as an animated project. Not "kiddie-fare," of course... but I think the realm of animation would allow more room for creativity.
Something stylish... with both fantastical qualities and dark elements. My only hope is that they'd stay as far away from anything resembling animé (or at least to what I've been exposed to of it), as humanly possible.

Of course, I doubt it would ever be a huge hit movie, but I don't think that's really Stevie's intention. From past interviews, I think she just wants to get the story out there in a bigger way.

Ann-Margrock could play Rhiannon. :]

I don't want Rhiannon to be the next Finding Nemo! This whole cartoon idea just sounds disturbing.
