Peter Jackson Not Pleased EA Experience

Posted by Zonk on from the could-have-been-better dept.

The New York Times reports in an article about the King Kong movie based game that director Peter Jackson wasn't entirely happy with his EA dealings. From the article: "Mr. Jackson, said close associates, chafed at his dealings with the industry heavyweight, Electronic Arts, during the making of the Lord of the Rings games. 'Electronic Arts was not interested in input from the filmmaker,' but later marketed the games as if he were closely involved, said Ken Kamins, Mr. Jackson's manager."

    Lol.

    But the fact of the matter is...who cares? It's a fricken movie...AND it's a fricken book! If both were erased from existence tomorrow the Earth would still spin on its axis and life would continue on. Getting upset about this crap is kind of silly.
