Really, its just too much, a nearly impossible Wagnerian feat, for one director to capture in even a series of several full-length films. By comparison 'Lord of the Rings' was child's play.

"pre-industrial"?

I was thinking specifically of ornithoppers. They sound like some strange Leonardo DaVinci flying contraption. Plus they fight with swords and the teeth of sandworms.
