I would definitely want to see real actors. Drizzt and friends should actually be MUCH easier than LOTR. Tolkien was extremely detailed in his descriptions and area settings. Salvatore focuses more on character development and action.

I think the actor that played Darth Maul (and the Toad in the X-Men movie) would be perfect for Drizzt. He's about the right size and a martial arts expert - so the fighting choreography shouldn't be too difficult.

I also agree that each book ought to be its own movie. I'll wager that if LOTR does well with this concept(3 movies released 1 year apart), then the possibilities for Salvatore's stories hitting the theaters will be much more likely.
