Beery, i think you just said he's done better than anyone on LOTR, hence he's a very good director.

Again, I think you're putting words in my mouth. I certainly never said any of those things, and I am BY NO MEANS convinced that Peter Jackson is a very good director. He has his strengths, and he has very pronounced weaknesses - weaknesses that I've mentioned. In many ways he's very similar to George Lucas - he can make a movie look very good, and he can do very good pacing, but where a script is concerned he's a liability. But what's important in the end is that Jackson did make a credible version of LOTR where others failed. LOTR didn't need a genius to bring it to the screen, but it did require competence. The same is true of King Kong.
