Is Peter Jackson Turning Into George Lucas?
Film-makers never get a break, do they? They spend years struggling in obscurity to improve their craft and gain some kind of recognition but, when notoriety finally comes, what happens? Well, admittedly, bags of money and simpering adulation. But after that they’re only ever a Jar-Jar Binks action figure away from ruining everything. Recently, people have worried this might be happening to Peter Jackson after the first part of the Hobbit trilogy was released. Oh, sure, it made lots of money but all the CGI and vomiting gave some people horrible, PTSD-induced flashbacks where the disembodied voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi repeatedly said “I have a bad feeling about this..”. So, are people right to be worried? Could Peter Jackson be on the road to flannel shirts and a bad 1950s quiff?
