Does Peter Jackson pull a George Lucas?

FOTR needs more CGI Ents walking around imo

Jackson doesnt have the fanboy following like Lucas does(or had).

Does it matter? You have a different actor playing the role. From a continuity standpoint, is it really that big of a deal?

Now, if he casts Ian Holm in a scene in the later film tying into the LOR Trilogy, I'd see the necessity.

As far as Star Wars is concerned, I understood replacing Ian McDiarmid in Empire, but I didn't get putting Hayden Christiansen in at the end of Jedi. My two issues: #1, Luke had never seen his father before he removes his mask in the Death Star hanger. How would he recognize that the man standing with Yoda and Ben is in fact Anakin?
#2, the entire death sequence with Vader, Obi Wan, Qui Gon, etc makes no sense. Obi Wan and Yoda speak about them becoming "One With The Force" which is why they disappear, yet Qui Gon and Anakin do not. What gives? Furthermore, wouldn't your projection in the force be based upon the moment you became one with the force? So why does everyone else look like their older selves, but Anakin look like he did 30 years ago?

No reason to. They look similar enough and it won't add anything.

Wikipedia says Holm will eventually replace Freeman as an older Bilbo

im aware of this, im talking about in the beginning of Fellowship when Holm plays a young Bilbo, finding the ring in Gollum's cave. Does he go back and replace that with the scene of Freeman finding the ring?

I wish he would go back to King Kong and take out that god awful dinosaur stampede scene completely.

that shite looked awful when it first came out and now its even worse.
