Star Wars was a Lucas creation or he was at least a great part of the process. The only thing Peter Jackson did was take a great story and turn it into a poorly digested travesty, made up of all the cinematic eye-candy of the day. As a longtime Tolkien reader, I hated all the LOTR movies (Aragorn, for instance, was one of the worst misscast character I ever saw; or perhaps it was just his... haircut).
Peter Jackson should drop his pseudo bohemian-intellectual act and direct unabashedly commercial and brain-numbing movies. It would be honest at least.
