King Kong First Look
Here is a first look at Peter Jackson’s new masterpiece, King Kong, opening December 14th.
Will it rival the Lord of the Rings? Heck, no! Will it be an amazing film? You Betcha!!!!
Kong is definitely a heavyweight, coming in at around three hours. Back is the missing spider scene cut from Cooper and Scoedsack’s original film. Most obvious is the fact that Kong is going to be a very different creature than the 1933 version. The undisputed King of Skull Island is going to be a battered, bruised, slightly pudgy denizen that has proved his mettle due to the years of battles with the T-Rex and the other inhabitants of the island, leading to his scarred and rough appearance.
Naomi Watts and Adrien Brody make sense. Jack Black, not so much. However, I really think Black is going to give us an amazing performance. The fact that Peter Jackson was borderline “stalking” him proves that he had faith in Black’s ability to be right for this film.
This is going to be awesome. Narnia and Kong back to back. What a Christmas it will be!!!!!
