"Descent to the Hollow World" could make a rather interesting movie. The question would be what region of the Hollow World to use? And how?

I think the Warriors of the Eternal Sun computer game might be used as a basis. In any case it is a good example of how to include quite a few Hollow World cultures. If not, having it set somewhere near Neathar and Azcan lands would be a good idea IMO, and ofcourse you would have to have lots of Dinosaurs.

To really get the Hollow World feel in a movie or a campaign I think it is advantageous to use people from the Outer World who somehow end up in the Hollow World. Elsewhere, I introduced the Serpent Caverns as a way of travelling quickly between the Outer World and the Hollow World. The World Elevator or the Aegos Elevator from WotI would be other possible means of entry.

I rather like the "how to get 'em there" approaches taken in the Blood Brethren trilogy:

-- compressed-strata travel via a summoned Earth elemental
-- travel to the HW via a burrower's ... digestive tract ;)

With the right amount of editing and cutting together, the Blood Brethren trilogy would make a nice bit of movie entertainment...

There are already several versions of Journey to the Center of the Earth... and DC did 133 issues of The Warlord between 1975 to around 1991, which was set in the interior of the Earth, called Skartaris. I figured that, if anything, someone would do a movie based on the comic series...

I think they should make a movie based on the D&D setting the Hollow World.

Perhaps based on the HWA trilogy. Would be sweet...
