Peter Jackson on The Hobbit |
|
We've all heard rumours about Peter Jackson wanting to make "The Hobbit" but I haven't seen much by way of evidence. MyWay is <a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20040306/D814VP480.html" target="_blank">reporting</a> an Associated Press article that quotes Peter Jackson on the subject:<blockquote><em>Jackson said New Line Cinema has the rights to make the movie, but MGM has the rights to distribute it.
<br>
<br>"I guess MGM's lawyers and New Line's lawyers are going to have a huge amount of fun over the next few years trying to work it all out," he told reporters recently in Los Angeles, according to AP Radio. "I'm obviously busy for a couple of years on 'King Kong' so those lawyers can just go at it for a long time."</em></blockquote> |

'couple of years'? Wow, is King Kong going to be a trilogy also? |

Two years isn't that long a production time for a special effects intensive movie production. All of the Jurassic Parks were filmed back to back, for example, and they were two years apart easy. |

I'm just glad Sir Ian looks to be in such good health and shape. It might be a few years. |

King Kong is due out next year apparently, and the short piece said that he'd been working on it for a while already. I'm glad he's on both projects, who else could do The Hobbit. Going to have to revisit that book to refresh my memory when it gets to it. =) Going to have to watch a bunch of oldie King Kong and Godzilla movies come time for the ape flick. =P _________________ Patito |
