No, he took westerns and put them in space. SW has a plot many times more simple than LOTR.

Anyone of you has any comments about Peter Jackson changing Tolkiens story line? I've read remarks from a few dissapointed people.
Oh well, that's why I never read the book first before the movie adaptation (if i haven't read it yet, anyway). 9 out of 10 you always get dissapointed with the film.
In the case of LOTR, i read the book eight years ago before FOTR. That's why i can't recall all the minute details in the book. So when I watched the two films, I enjoyed the films for what it is; a great movie and not a long book with multiple plot lines.

I'm sorry to repeat myself, but what I wrote (below) on the other thread in the LOTR forum, is more relevant to this topic, so here goes :
I saw the two towers ... and its absolutely awesome. To put it bluntly, it was MUCH more enjoyable than SW ep.2; the things is, the story is powerful and deep for both the movies .... the difference is, in the case of the two towers, emphasis has been placed on the story and the characters, and the CGI, SFX are used in a role supportive to that ...i.e. they are used as the means NOT the end .... whereas in the case of ep.2, although the story line and characters bore lots of potential and depth, the makers have focussed their energy primarily on the visual and aural " eye / ear candy " part, and havent seemed to have spent enough energy or attention on developing the storyline and the characters, which as I said had lots of potential ... the graphics etc. became the end not the means ... as a result the movie suffered ... the acting except for Christopher Lee and Ewan McGregor was banal ... and the story, which had so much "meat" in it was left " half cooked " so to speak. That left me with a dissatisfied feeling .... I saw ep.2 4 times in the theatre anyway, but that's because I love Star Wars. It could and should have been much better.
The Two Towers was magnificent. From the opening shot to the end ... I was completely engrossed. The battle for Helms Deep - that stuff is unreal man. I dont think there has been any battle filmed like that on screen before.

Yeah, ROTK's gonna blow our minds away!! It's gonna be the finale to end all finales. Though TTT will be very hard to beat, I have all confidence in Peter Jackson that he will be able to deliver. Unlike some directors I know.

I thought this movie was great! This was the first of the Lord Of The Rings trilogy I saw, and I think this one is great for action, and the first is great for action and environments, I can't wait for Return Of The King!
