Never want to see that fucking awful film. I don't care how good the special effects are. A 30 foot gorilla?? Fuck off. Pro-christian piece of shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So you decided to give it some free publicity instead? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Attack of 50ft Woman is better imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not all publicicty is good publicity. Ask michael jackson. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Pro-christian (why?) or not it's just plain silly. |
||||||||
|

i don`t think there is such a thing that can make me stare in one direction for 3 hours. |

Is the Gorilla meant to be Jesus? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it's a good zappa song killer keyboard fill, right after the exposition of the main theme. brilliant. |

the gorilla is played by lou ferrigno |

MJ's recent press is good publicity. People say "It's a shame, his old stuff was so good". Then they go out and buy the new Hits album he has out. |

yeah, that king kong is excellent |

The movie is simply bad, I prefeer the 1933 version |

I had that attitude, then I was forced to go and see it yesterday with some girl and I grumpily agreed. I was actually pleasantly suprised. They graphics are incredible when the dinosaurs are fighting with Kong, the acting (from Jack Black especially) is suprisingly good, the plot well developed and it all works pretty well. The 3 hours felt like 2. Just a few problems I had with it: *How did they get a 25 foot gorrilla onto their small ship to bring him back? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. *How did this island remain undiscovered for so long, yet jack Black's character had a map leading straight to it. Where did he get it from? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. *Why do those bat creatures gang up and choose to attack Kong precisely the minute that the girl & guy are escaping from his lair and so putting him off. They've been there for decades presumably, why that second fight a battle they know they'll lose? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. *Why is there a huge Gorrilla on an island populated by dinosaurs? Anachronistic or what? Where is his mate? How did he come to be? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. I give it a resounding 5/10 |

i refused when a friend proposed to check this movie in a cinema. don't care about it. He said that "it's a Peter Jackson movie". So fucking what. I'll better watch peter jacksons Bad Taste once again. |

Youre right, jackson didnt explain any of that, and neither did the writers of the original king kong in 1933. Perhaps, fantasy film remakes isnt your genre. *How did they get all these events on tape? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. *where was all that music comming from? Peter Jackson conveniently didn't try to explain this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
erm, you basically all fantasy films characteristcally have huge errors/gaps in their scripts? Does that make it cool, does that make it funny? Are you saying you LIKE the film!? Dolleater conveniently didn't try to explain this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how is it pro-christian again? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Gaps? Like lame scientific explanations to support the fantastical elements of the film's premise, in order to satisfy a whining fix for the amateur movie critic? Like the film? Im not stupid enough to see that movie! |

btw. I realise Im acting like a dickhead. Sorry. Im just trying to irritate you becuase im a dork. |

Saw it and its missing that essential movie magic that all the great adventure yarns have..... Films like "Raiders of the lost ark", "alien", "big trouble in little china", "back to the future", "jaws", "dark star", "logans run" etc. Amazing special effects don't cut the mustard when part iof a film that has such shit dialogue, crappy acting, unsympathetic characters, woefull music, crappy pace, cul de sac sub-plots and all the holes noted above. Seems you can polish a turd. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the original king kong was not a turn and CG can polish nothing.... but CD and puppetry all the same thing really i guess... all tools yeah? or shall we argue PCs against Mac . . . or guitars against synths.... hmm...... was bill hicks any good... all i hear is assholes reciting his routines in my office... boring me shitless.... they claim he was so many things like "intelligent", "offensive", "funny", "dead" and many others...... but hey never say he was "kind" or a good man.... hmm anti heros are still popular then.... hmmmm is jesus an anti hero.... or only for the jewish and is peter jackson an anti-anti-hero now he is popular. . . ..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

shit i meant "turd" and "CG" obviously.... my english is very bad sorry..... im studying. |

I liked the way you managed to touch upon every subject in the world in that short yet inspirational post. |

Erm.. Delerious by name, and by nature - PJ DIDNT WRITE THE FILM! - someone should have told u! hma - 3 hours? What the fuck else would u be doing that is so interesting? You should be grateful for the value for money these days. Oh and seeing as he spent about 2 years on this maybe you could just sit on your arse for 3 hours. Fuckin hell, some people. Oh well seems he wasted about $50million of his own money trying to please as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So he didn't write the film, he's the Director if a football team plays shit all season, it's the manager who gets the sack. His players may be the ones making the mistakes where it counts but he has to take responsability in the same way that PJ has to take responsability for the major problems in his film. Exaph = Peter Jackson? |

*How did they get a 25 foot gorrilla onto their small ship to bring him back? It'll be on the extended DVD version *How did this island remain undiscovered for so long, yet jack Black's character had a map leading straight to it. Where did he get it from? It'll be on the extended DVD version *Why do those bat creatures gang up and choose to attack Kong precisely the minute that the girl & guy are escaping from his lair and so putting him off.

|
|
isnt "king kong" what dog_belch calls his penis? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No no no no no, you've got me all wrong. "Skipper" is his name. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ahh...right... perhaps its glue_made_out_of_horse_factory that calls his dong the kong? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do u understand the difference between directing and writing? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw the film. and i didnt think it was that bad. sure it wasnt great. but some of it was kinda enjoyable (considering it was a movie about a big monkey.) and yeah, it didnt explain why it had big monkey and living dinosaur (and other oversized animals,) but like, the original had dinosaurs as well. so meh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
PJ Didn't conveniently didn't explain the meaning of life in his film - idiosyncratic or what? Just a little problem I had with it but the directing was ace - the acting (from Jack Black especially) is suprisingly good, the plot well developed and it all works pretty well. The 3 hours felt like 2. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i found it a bit fake...i mean a huge monkey? puhlease... what's next a rich guy opens a park where dinosaurs live? haha...childish |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate the new peter jackson, he needs to watch his old movies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, probably better than tridenti |
||||||||
|
|

There's a 30ft gorilla in Narnia? |
||||||||
|
|

holla back girl |

It's just some nicely crafted entertainment, not Wildlife on One. There are plot holes, so fucking what? It's just a nice bit of escapism. Are you pissed off with Terminator 2 because there wasn't a nuclear war in 1997? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought it was a great piece of escapist entertainment. And if that sounds patronising, tuff shit. The special effects were mind-blowing and had me screaming with glee for the first time since I was about 9. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just a 30ft christian. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I can't wait to fucking see it. |
