The greedy suits at New Line finally crawled back and confirmed Peter Jackson is returning to the fold. We hit them hard in the pockets and showed them that fans have power. Stay vigilant because these corporate hacks will try this manipulation again.
In short this petition/boycott is in response to New Line\'s decision to move on with The Hobbit without Peter Jackson. This is a man that brought magic back into the cinema and made all those greedy money-grubbing execs at New Line rich. This decision not only shows complete disrespect to the filmmaker, but also to the fans of this franchise as well.
This boycott on New Line and all its films is effective immediately, starting this weekend with their release of Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny. Let\'s send a real message to New Line, and let\'s hit them where it hurts: their pockets.
UPDATE: As far as this boycott (which is not just limited to this particular petition - visit boycottnewline.com and sign their petition as well) is concerned, it was a success. Last weekend New Line\'s release of Tenacious D saw an opening of just 3.3 million. We may have won that battle, but the war is yet to be decided. This weekend, New Line is releasing it\'s movie The Natitivity - and with that, the boycott continues...
We are right on the edge of 100 signatures and those greedy suits at New Line need to feel every bit of this heat. Push this out to everyone you know right now so they see how many people are done with their disrespect.

Peter Jackson IS middle earth. Without him it will just be another generic blockbuster. New line is making a huge mistake.
