Old news, actually.
They released several different DVD versions of the original film yesterday, and they showed it on TCM last night, along with an hour long documentary on the making of the film.
I am going to go see it.
If it were anyone but Peter Jackson I would not be so sure I would want to see it.
But he has proven himself MORE than capable at creating big-budget blockbuster films that kick ass. -
The effects did look good to me.
And I caught the 1933 original on TCM last night also.
Was a fan of the last version with Jeff Bridges and Jessica Lange.Comment

I wasn't.
But...no matter.
HERE is something fucking cool.
I was talking on the phone last night with a friend, and had the TV on. Suddenly, I saw the latest trailer for the film.
It blew my head clean off!
Check it out...you can even see it on ipod or high-definition!

I thought the previews of Kong atop the Empire State building were killer.
And the shots of the island and the dinosaurs and shit.
Obviously the effects available now beat the shit out of stop animation and a dude in a suit.Comment

The question I ask is this:
How the hell can they make a King Kong movie into a 3 hour flick???
I don't know, I'm thinking its gonna be a borefest for a while until Kong starts to get nasty with the Lizards/brontosaurus and finally ends up in New York.
I'm a big fan of the original. I saw it last night on TCM as well. I'll be picking up the collectors DVD. I even liked the 76 version, in all its cheesiness glory (afterall, Jessica Lange was a hottie!).
So, with that, I'm not sold on this Peter Jackson version. No doubt it will be leaps and bounds better than Kong '76 and I appreciate the guy's enthusiasim on Kong, but I don't know---3 hours???? of what??
Is Kong gonna meet up with Frodo and Gollum on Skull Island??=V V=

Nah.
Anything that has to be as hyped as this thing was half a year prior to the release ain't gonna be worth it. Plus, am all done with Black after that School of Rock crapfest. His schtick isn't even marginally interesting, I'm bored to fuck with remakes and movies that ooze with special effects instead of a decent plot, and had no interest in any of the Lord of the Rings movies, so just the fact that this director did this remake isn't sweetening the deal for me...
...if I do change my mind and end up seeing it, it will be in a theater, as none of the CGI stuff ever holds up on the small screen. Won't be worth a rental.
I am going to see Aeon Flux, though.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment
