IF so, he should branch out and take on the Dirk Pitt novels by Clive Custler. Or better yet, Re-do Buck Rogers.

I would love to see the whole Dirk Pitt series movies made into movies. But I think Clive Custler would have to seriously re-write Raise The Titanic, though.

As far as Peter Jackson, I would love to see this new King Kong movie. Can you imagine what Ray Harryhausen could have done with today's CGI technology? Bring on the T-rex's and pteradyctals, something which was sorely missed in the remake. If the LOTR trilogy is any indication, then this movie will be terrific.

Also, I've heard or read somewhere that for his next project, he's going to do The Hobbit. Since LOTR was so successful, and a lot of fans, myself included, would have wanted to see the whole book on film, rather than a 5 minute briefing that didn't even include the dwarves or the dragon, he's going to do it. Don't know when this will come out, but if this is true, I can't wait.
