    After the Hobbit, I really don’t care for another Jackson LOTR movie. The trailer did nothing to change this.

    On top of that, the first two episodes of Rings of Power bascially killed all my remaining interest in any further adaption.

      The Hobbit wasn’t really Jackson’s fault. He did an amazing job considering the circumstances. He probably should have told the studio no but he was just trying to save the movie from oblivion. He’s merely a producer on this, probably just getting paid to put his name on it.

      From what I read in another thread, this isn’t really a Peter Jackson product. He was apparently signed on as an executive producer after production had nearly wrapped, his name is just attached for the advertising.

      Ultimately this is a LotR fanfic. If it’s good, it’s good. If not, oh well, it’s not like it ruins the canon, which already ended over 50 years ago with Tolkien’s death.
