Peter Jackson (Director)

One of the fathers of modern fantasy. From amateur zombie blood baths to epic sweeping battles, Jackson is known for his ambitious visual effects. Also famous for creating over-the-top dream-sequences. And wearing shorts. Always.

loooove the lord of the rings trilogy, and finally got round to seeing The Lovely Bones recently, and cried my eyes out. Peter Jackson Rocks!

Love the graphic picture! Agree he is 'the father of modern fantasy'

Unfortunate not to be in the Gold category for LOTR alone. Being labelled 'the father of modern fantasy' may be doing both Spielberg and Cameron an injustice. Definitely re-wrote the rules in terms of epic scenes and battles with help of WETA workshop in NZ.
