No wonder Mav gets mistaken for BKB sometimes...

I won't start arguing again with a person who's acting like a 12 year old offended child whenever someone's not sharing his opinion of Lucas being this allmighty movie god everyone has to bow to... speaking of licking balls...

I would agree with Mav's argument in this instance, maybe not the wording of it but...

Jackson is all over the Star Wars DVDs jizzing about Star Wars and its themes.

Lucas' impact in the industry is so wide spread that I don't think we'll ever see an end to it.

As far as the advancement of technology goes, there is no other technology evangelist with his power and level save for maybe Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, etc.

If Lucas is pimping technology, with Cameron, Spielberg and newbie Jackson in tow... maybe some of the most important directors of sci-fi/fantasy material alive/of all time... I can't imagine it being bad.

Lucas, unlike any other person in Hollywood, is endlessly stubborn, and if he can't have his way in the theaters, he will open up a chain of theaters just to show his 3-D technology until he convinces the public.

That's just the way he is...

The rest of us can discuss the actually subject of the thread, something Nazgul has never been able to do.

I've never denied his impact. But that doesn't change my opinion of him being an average director and a poor script(dialog)writer. I find it a bit laughable calling someone who's collecting razzies with his movies "the greatest ever filmmaker".

Another day, another lie...

And this thread backs me up perfectly, so save it...

Read it again...

We all know, you trolled and then wanted to make it a "I love Peter Jackson" thread.

What's even more laughable, is that you have a very limited knowledge on what a filmmaker is, as was pointed out to you on page one of this thread. It's also laughable that the razzie voters do your thinking for you, as you actually named them as your credible source of validation...hahaha . Name a filmmaker that has done more than Lucas as a filmmaker, and list his credentials, and then I'll list Lucas', and we'll see how they stack up. If you can't do that, we'll just assume that you can't.

The thing is that Cameron, not Lucas, is the driving force behind 3D cinema, so if anything it's Cameron's 3D technology.

I didn't even mention Peter Jackson, weirdo...

So Jackson was at ShoWest? First time i hear this...

No word of a Kong presentation, so what was he doing there, just hanging around with his moviemaking buddies? :???:

The thing is Nazgul, whether I think you admit it or not, you are still arguing against the filmmaker moniker. We are still arguing definitions in a way. It's not really a question of what you believe...

Listen, I think even I wouldn't feel comfortable calling Lucas' last few scripts 100% great. If someone told me that Lucas was a fantastic dialog writer, there would definately be some head scratching, but there is sufficient real, honest-to-god factual evidence and more learned opinion than me or you that Lucas is indeed one of the greatest film innovators of our time, being that he creates these films to showcase them means that there is evidence to believe he is one of the greatest living filmmakers, or if you dispute that, definately one of the more important filmmakers. Just as Harvey Weinstien is also an important filmmaker.


I would think that Cameron would probably disagree with you. But if anything, all these directors are moving together in rhythm to secure the future of their art and their enterprises. They are smart to band together, all of them. Being a maverick (no pun!) in the industry, like the Spider-Man boys or John Geta and his almost forgotten Matrix movies just insures that your technology goes absolutely nowhere.

WETA and ILM and the directors that work in and out of both companies and subsidiaries (wasn't WETA also going to work on Battle Angel?) are going to REAP the rewards of splitting the industry in two and having their pick of the thousands of projects that come their way.

Not to derail the current argument but there's something I'm curious about if Lucas does stick with the 1 film a year schedule for the 3D rereleases beginning in '07.

It seems to me that if A New Hope is rereleased in '07, by the time they get to Sith in '12, won't the 3D technology be so far advanced that it'll beg for another rerelease starting with ANH.

I would almost prefer a release schedule similar to '97.

That was followed by an article in which you highlighted the parts mentioning Jackson. If you had any credibility, you would have lost it. #-o
