Default Peter Jackson signs on as Executive Producer of the Halo movie.

That's right...

It's looking like this movie's going to be pretty sweet.

What if its total crap like most other game to movies are?


What then?



This could either make Halo really good, or make Jackson a total douche.

Picture Starship Troopers.

Now picture it newer, and directed by Peter Jackson.

Just one problem: Peter Jackson is executive producer, not director. Those are not the same thing.

I'm sure he'll be a good influence, but if you're expecting Lord of the Rings in space, forget about it. This is going to be an bang bang explosion action movie. It could be a fun action flick, but in the end, it's not going to be the next cultural phenomenon.

Let's take a look at the other time Jackson dabbled in sci-fi:



How is this movie btw for anyone who's seen it?

How would an alien know what the meaning of single raised middle finger is? That movie looks really weird.

I'm still excited for a Silent Hill movie.

If that sucks...I'll...I'll...I'll probably cry.

Anything by Peter Jackson = Automatically Good

We just watched King Kong in film class 2 weeks ago. I can't wait to see how his adaptation plays up against the original.

Well....Peter Jackson hasn't "screwed up" yet. Maybe this will be the first project he will look back on, laugh and tell everyone what a stupid mistake he made
