Pan's Labyrinth was very good. We'll see what he comes up with for the hobbit.

Well, he looks like Jackson, so we should be fine!

I'm holding out that he will do it even better. I hope he captures the true true spirit of hobbits.

Jackson is an executive producer of the film. If you have the money, that's the way to go.....it avoids the 18-hour days!

If it's anything like the rest of his work it will bring a darker edge to the films. Looking forward to seeing the result.

Yes me too. I mean, exec. producer isn't what I wanted him as but oh well. Transformers had Spielberg as exec. and that was just okay.
