Every film is a challenge. I always say that making a movie is like film school - you're always learning. But unlike most schools, you never get done with it. You never learn everything.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

I regard myself as an entertainer much more than an artist.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

Writing a screen play with a ...

Writing a screen play with a group of collaborators is like the Lennon McCartney collaboration .... sometimes one or two people do more than others on certain parts of the process and vice versa.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

There's a generation of children who don't like black and white movies. There's a level of impatience or intolerance.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

As human beings, we always have resistance against things that are different and there's always suspicion.

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 86 quotes

In an ideal world the script ...

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 86 quotes

I wanted people to believe th...

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

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

New Zealand is not used to wealth. In America wealth is kind of a thing of pride. Here it's the opposite. The more you've got, the bigger the target you are.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

Elijah can register such subtle emotion on his face that I loved doing close-ups on him. He really brings a superb emotional level to Frodo's scenes and although he is a very instinctive actor, we discussed the character thoroughly.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

[While shooting close-ups] yo...

[While shooting close-ups] you study real eyes, you study how the light reflects in them, you study the back of the eye, you study the way irises reflect emotion. You go into great scientific detail.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

Aragorn: Gentlemen! We do not...

Aragorn: Gentlemen! We do not stop 'til nightfall. Pippin: But what about breakfast? Aragorn: You've already had it. Pippin: We've had one, yes. But what about second breakfast? [Aragorn stares at him, then walks off.] Merry: Don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pip. Pippin: What about elevensies? Luncheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper? He knows about them, doesn't he? Merry: I wouldn't count on it Pip.

I want to make a series of movies that run together, so if any crazy lunatic wants to watch them all in a row, there will be a consistency of tone.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

I don't believe in the concep...

I don't believe in the concept that 3D should be shot separately. I mean, every director has their own style, sure, but I don't think any of that is really an issue with 3D.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

Everything is in a script for a reason, and only by being part of a writing team (or writing it yourself), do you really understand the intention of every beat.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

The one thing with 3D present...

The one thing with 3D presentations is I think that 3D itself, whether it's 24 or 48, is at a very interesting point in time.

I'm a Beatles fan, and I remember in the mid-1980s, when CDs first came out, there was a sound of vinyl and the sound of the needle on it that people loved, and suddenly CDs were threatening.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

I think that you can treat a classic like a museum piece -stuffed and mounted- or you can make it a living, breathing narrative that is unfolding right then and there.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

To people in my industry I'm usually a guy that tries to generate his own projects and I remain very elusive when people try and attach me to big projects.

Peter Jackson 86 quotes

When I start a film, I can so...

When I start a film, I can sort of shut my eyes, sit somewhere quiet and imagine the movie finished. I can imagine the camera angles, I can even imagine the type of music. Without knowing the tune, I can imagine the type of music it needs to be.
