Post King Kong
The Special effects look amazing. Plus Peter Jackson from Lord of the rings is the director. I've seen the original one many times while growing up. I cant wait to see this new one.

I love Peter Jacksons old films while he was still making them in New Zealand. Bad Taste, Dead Alive, and Meet The Feebles are three of my favorite movies of all time!

They come highly recomended by me! You wont be able to stop laughing with all three. Just make sure no kids are around while watching them. If you watch Dead Alive make sure to get the uncut version.

I know it's going to sound real strange...but I really like the original version.
It's one of my favorites. I've got to get it on DVD.

Yeah, but I'm a gore hound so the more blood and guts the better! The lawnmower scene is classic.

Seeing Jack Black play a regular role in this movie should be funny. It reminds me of when Jim Carrey did that war hero movie. The Majestic.

He has done serious before. Like The Jackal or Dead Man Walking. I'm a huge Tenacious D fan so Jack Black is reason enough for me to go see King Kong. Too bad Kyle Gass doesn't get as many roles as Jack Black. The D is supposed to have a movie coming out next year.

At least Kong won't be claymation anymore. Usualy when they do remakes they end up sucking but I have faith in Peter Jackson so I'll go see it. The remake I cant wait for is The Omen 666, due out June 6th 2006.

The only place Jack Black has in that movie, IMHO, Is the Gorilla.
