I don't think we can pass this off as a 'rumour' anymore. Obviously it's been relagated to the EE version, a sad mistake in most all of our opinions. I would think that boycotting the premiere might be a little extreme for Lee (& quotes have pretty well proven that he probably never said he would), but I wouldn't blame him if he didn't go. I mean, it's hard enough for what was probably his biggest stage in any of these LotR movies to be cut, but as others have said, for him not to be told about it right away is flat-out outrageous.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>However I think I will trust PJ until shown otherwise.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I'm with Saucy. I'd like nothing more than to trust PJ, but it's just getting to hard to really give him the 100% benefit of the doubt anymore. I disagree with the statements about his quality of directing, because: <P>1- Before LotR he never did any major movie (don't tell me that that's only because he wasn't picked for the good ones, if he wasn't there must've been a reason for it ).<BR>2- Although he's done a fairly admirable job on FotR & TTT (especially FotR, he is certainly not above making a grave mistake. The brothers that produced the Matrix movies where all great directors, until the 2nd & 3rd movies came out, now their labeled as 'busts'. Any director can make mistakes & go through highs & lows, & PJ isn't exempt for them.<BR> Wow, this is getting really long, I'll end it now. <p>[ November 13, 2003: Message edited by: The Only Real Estel ]
