    DUDE!! We went to the theater last week and they had a little deal on King Kong before the show and saw this. My wife and I couldn’t believe it!! The first couple times they showed Jackson I was sure it was stock footage from 25 years ago or something!!

    He’s looking like he did in Bad Taste

  3. Sebastiaan

    what and the who and the where…
    if he keeps on going he wíll end up like Gollum :)

  4. Ewan

    i think they just got a look alike to mime the video ( i bet hes even fatter then ever)

  5. Sebastiaan

    or they totally compressed the width to 50% :P

  6. TJ

    That man needs a haircut.

  7. Vesty

    I sorta liked the way he used to look compared to now, seemed more friendly looking *shrugs*

  8. Bach

    I agree with Vesty. Good to see he lost all the weight, has to better for him in the long run, health wise. But, he was like a jolly fat guy before.

  9. Abby Normal

    He needs a damn shave also. He looks like a homeless person.

    after earning so much money with the lord of the rings movies, its only natural, i would treat myself to a rockstar life of drugs and whoremongering, i would be even thinner.

  11. BIGGIN

    Actually, that is just another Andy Serkis + CGI masterpiece. Peter is even bigger than before and actually was Kong’s stand in for certain scenes.

  12. Spencer

    I was noticing that last week during the King Kong trailer.

    Good for him!!!

  13. Sentinel

    He looks kind of like Dr. Forrester now.

  14. Sigma_Crow

    I think I liked him better when he was fat. He looked, as mentioned before, jolly. He just looks emaciated in that.

    So I take it you folks haven’t been watching the video diaries at Kongisking.net over the past year? Appears he lost that weight before Kong began shooting.

    I thought maybe he puts the pounds back on during editing (sitting on his butt all day), but he seems to be keeping it off. Good for him!

  16. Ewan

    i think before he looks like a geek which lived in his parents basement (when they wre makin LOTR i thought he was just the knowledgable geek at first instead of the directer)

  17. Jaded Falcon

    Running from giant things will do that to you.

  18. Alex

    Jolly fat person eh……

    PETER JACKSON = SANTA CLAUS!

    But now he is a tiny elf :P

    About time I worked off my m00bs too :P

    Peter Jackson is Pippin, Merry and Gandalf… He was the blob, after all, so he must have consumed them, infuseimg himself with their DNA, which just happened to be on the thin side of the scale.
