    Del Toro was the director and Jackson stepped in last minute to savage.

    EDIT: Salvage

      Yeah, I wouldn’t blame Peter Jackson for that one. Although still not hopeful for a Gollum focused movie. Would have much preferred something outside of the known characters.

        Oh yeah I’m not particularly excited. But Peter Jackson * Time = Great usually.

      Wait, savage or salvage? Sounds like both. 😂

      Either way, I’m still very excited for this! I think they’ll try to redeem themselves after The Hobbit trilogy.

        Salvage whoops. Yeah basically the movie got replanned last minute. Given the circumstances they are better films than they had any right to be.

        It’s a shame we never saw Del Toro’s vision.
