Independence Day was a joke. Much better film: THE FIFTH ELEMENT

Darth Wyndisis

District 9 was awesome.  It wasn't just the typical alien movie.

Mysterious F.

Including the director and the estimated time of release in the US:

  • Alice in Wonderland (Tim Burton; Mar. 5, 2010) (This is set ten years after her previous adventures in Wonderland, which makes it much more interesting than a straight-forward adaptation.)
  • Shutter Island (Martin Scorsese; Oct. 2, 2009) (Scorsese fourth collaboration with Leonardo DiCaprio yet. Do I sense some jealousy, Robert DeNiro?)
  • The Tree of Life (Terrence Malick; Dec. 25, 2009) (Terrence Malick is awesome. It stars Sean Penn and Brad Pitt.)

Peter Jackson is supposed to be working on The Hobbit, damn it! DX

Did he not say he would work on the movie adaptation after his King Kong remake?  What happened?

He's working on it. These things take time and he has a buttload of projects on his shelf.

PS: Quit whining.

Big-budget blockbusters take years to make, so I wouldn't line up at movie theatre yet, if I were you.

I once read somewhere that he was going to make a Halo movie? WTF ever happened to that one? It would have been big probably.

Well, yeah, I know that, but it has been years since Jackson finished King Kong; I was hoping to hear something about The Hobbit by now.

My sister's husband was telling me the other day that Jackson couldn't get the funding or something like that.

Well perhaps he should try a little harder, because there are at least 30 million Halo fans out there that would have died to see that movie, i know me and my friends where really looking forward to it, and seen how Peter Jackson would have been apart of it, Im sure it would have sold a lot :)

Don't blame Jackson, blame the Studios for not having faith.

I'm also looking forward to Alice In Wonderland, I love the story, it's one I grew up with so it's pretty close to my heart, and hopefully they will do it justice.
