Peter Jackson, Weta and NZ - will they challenge Hollywood for real?

Well, why should they? Other people/companies don't get tax breaks for no logical reason (other than that they want one)...

The army doesn't do work for free for other companies either. This was a national pride thing as well and therefore they are willing to give advantages to them that others do not enjoy.

Lotr was funded by New Line Cinema as I recall, I think it's Disney who owns them...

Actually NLC is owned by Warner, but they're not located at Warner Bros Studios. NLC is based in Hollywood, while WB is in Burbank area.
