    Peter Jackson (and his team) has now shot the equivalent of 20 million feet of film on The Hobbit. For reference, he shot 7 million feet of film on The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

    Peter is shooting up to 50 RED Epics on The Hobbit. And there is still time to go...

    When I had dinner with Peter a couple of weeks ago... he was happy. If Peter is happy, I'm happy.

    Even with a shooting ratio of 100:1, the movies would each be over 16 hours long :-)

    Peter has the most incredible Army to handle all they are shooting. It is amazing... really.

    If Peter is happy, Jim is happy. If Jim is happy, we're all going to be happy.

    And it's not like they'll have their rushes stored in just one place...

    Nothing but respect for the Hobbit guys. I've seen a few crew members burnt out by the sheer effort but the film goes on. Madness.
