Production Video #3
PJ’s Personal Note:

Good news and bad news today. Bad news is that we won’t be doing any Hobbit presentation at Comic Con in San Diego this year. New Line and Warner Bros were very happy to support a presentation, but I declined, simply because I felt it was too early. There’s so much more of the films still to shoot. I just wanted to get that out there, because I’ve seen various references to the possibility of something Hobbity at Comic Con. Hate to disappoint anyone. But something tells me we will be there in force next year.

Now for the good news… We’ve just finished a new video blog, covering a little more of the first block of shooting. So please enjoy this—at least you don’t have to travel to San Diego to see it!

Thanks The Hobbit!

Jackson and Del Toro talk about The Hobbit

Finally, speculations and debate about what would be the plot for the second Hobbit movie can stop, Petter Jackson and Guillermo del Toro talked to Empire magazine and revealed all.

“We’ve decided to have The Hobbit span the two movies, including the White Council and the comings and goings of Gandalf to Dol Guldur,” says Del Toro.

“We decided it would be a mistake to try to cram everything into one movie,” adds Jackson. “The essential brief was to do The Hobbit, and it allows us to make The Hobbit in a little more style, if you like, of the [LOTR] trilogy.”

Now we can begin to speculate where the cut is going to be =)

Thanks EM!

Peter Jackson Plans Flying Visits To New Zealand?

Never mind the global recession – filmmaker Peter Jackson is believed to be taking to the skies with a new, $106 million jet.

Aircraft industry insiders are abuzz with speculation about the Oscar winner’s upgrade to a Gulfstream G550 jet, one of two exclusive private jets sold to New Zealanders in the past 18 months.

Jackson, whose net wealth is estimated at $450 million on the NBR Rich List, already owns a G-IV jet, but those in the know say he’s decided to upgrade.

“Everyone in the industry is talking about it,” said a source. “He’s got a G-IV at the moment so he probably wants an upgrade and it’s a pretty good plane to upgrade to.”

Another source said there was a wait time of 12 months for the jet, so Jackson most likely would have got in early. “I’ve heard about it from a number of people and I’m not surprised he’s bought one. They are great planes.”

The jet is decked out with four living areas, an office, satellite communications and can seat up to 18 passengers. It has Rolls Royce turbofan engines, allowing for longer-haul flights to be completed easier.
