I want to make movies just like King Kong. You know, dinosaurs, big gorillas - it's everything that a nine year-old boy would fall in love with.
Peter Jackson
Image
I adore physical miniatures and try to use them as much as I can and have a bit of a fetish about that.
Peter Jackson

In an ideal world the script is written lean and tight and therefore there are no scenes left on the cuttring room floor and therefore no extended edition.
Peter Jackson
Image
A pregnant woman is like a beautiful flowering tree, but take care when it comes time for the harvest that you do not shake or bruise the tree, for in doing so, you may harm both the tree and its fruit.
Peter Jackson
Image
Motion-capture is not a genre. Motion-capture is a tool and technique and what we tried to do was to really use both motion-capture and traditional animation to build a system.
Peter Jackson
Image
The only thing about 3-D is the dullness of the image.
Peter Jackson
Image
One does not simply walk into Mordor.
Peter Jackson
Image
I just got to the point where I literally didn't want anyone else to do it.
Peter Jackson
Image
He who must search a haystack for a needle is likely to end up with the attitude that the needle is not worth the search.

I wanted people to believe that there could still be this little undiscovered piece of the world that survives still on Skull Island.
