A nutless monkey could have made the LOTR trilogy and made a billion dollars.

Yeah, right. You speak from experience?

What have you got against Peter Jackson?

Several people bombed trying to make the Lord of the Rings, and many considered it to be impossible to make. Ralph Bakshi had one bomb, and there was a terrible cartoon version of the Hobbit.

I'm not that big a LOTR movie fan, and haven't been able to sit through all three movies, but it's an impressive feat to finish the film, particularly with the problems of some of the characters like Gollum and the Hobbits (making them believable.)
