re: How much of a joke is it that Star Wars was ever thought to be equal to Lord of the Rings?

The initial deal was for 2 movies and Jackson added the third because he thought he had enough story to tell.


I’m pretty sure as that clip shows that he said the exact opposite. You can tell with the final battle that they had no idea what they were doing in it. The only real thing that was important there was to give Thorin an impactful death, which they succeeded on that front.

It is only at the end of a shoot that you finally get the chance to sit down and have a look at the film you have made,” Jackson wrote. “Recently Fran [Walsh], Phil[lippa Boyens] and I did just this when we watched for the first time an early cut of the first movie — and a large chunk of the second. We were really pleased with the way the story was coming together, in particular, the strength of the characters and the cast who have brought them to life. All of which gave rise to a simple question: do we take this chance to tell more of the tale? And the answer from our perspective as the filmmakers, and as fans, was an unreserved ‘yes.’
