The Writers' Guild of America's website has an interesting article about how Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy was adapted into movies; the article interviews the three writers (Peter Jackson himself, his partner Fran Walsh and co-writer and Tolkienophile Philippa Boyens), and goes into some of the technical problems faced in adapting such a project into a viable movie and keeping the spirit of it (largely) intact.
