I actually like the first one -- the second one's a little awkwardly composed. What is the American poster, anyway? The face shot?
I bet you anything...ANYTHING...that this will be the worst of t by indiephantom	Nov 11th, 2005 08:18:30 PM
The 1933 version is classic in every way and lots of fun. The 1976 version is great nostalgia camp and has a hottie Jessica Lange. This one has CG Kong...I rest my case. What's exciting about this? Why is Harry pimping it like his newborn troll?
cgi argument is silly by double_A_Ron	Nov 11th, 2005 08:26:19 PM
Someone who likes the original with stop motion puppet and fingerprints thinks the new one can't be good... because it uses cg? I don't get it.

indiephantom by puter1803	Nov 11th, 2005 08:59:38 PM
i very much doubt this movie is all about the spectacle of the cg. if you havent experienced any emotion in the trailers, especially the last one with the shot of naomi crying and then the one of her yelling "no".. well my friend, you have no heart and you probably wont enjoy the movie.
How Much... by BCfreeB	Nov 11th, 2005 09:03:59 PM
Kong coverage is this site planning to do? It seems that every image, idea for an image, talk about an image or soundis put up here while a lot of big news stories come late or not at all...slightly annoying. next we'll get a special sneak peak of the sound effects for Jack Black's snoring aboard the Venture. www.unseenfilms.com

this site is whoring KONG to the max. I think Harry is responsible, personally. I mean if there ever were a character he could identify with...well, expect for being strong and able to scale buildings. Metaphorically, I mean.
why do people seem to have so little confidence in Peter Jackson by freak2thec0re	Nov 11th, 2005 09:16:58 PM
right after he made the Lord of the Rings trilogy? I mean, what exactly does he have to do to get you to have the tiniest bit of confidence that he might be able to make his next film good. LOTR could have just as easily been a cgi spectacle, and I think he handled it pretty well. If this movie indeed sucks, then go ahead and post serious doubts on whether his next film will be good, but cmon, I'd think he should have earned a little confidence with his last effort

Why American Posters aren't as good as Foreign posters by TheGinger Twit	Nov 11th, 2005 10:12:19 PM

Hey man, awesome name! Since you slammed these posters so hard, does this mean you're a photoshop graphic designer? I'd love to see some of your work or something if you think THESE suck!!! I've used Photoshop pretty much every day of my life for about 7 years, and that looks to me like some REALLY great work!!! If that looks like "the worst photoshop job ever" to you, point me in the direction of some GOOD work!!! I'd love to see it!!! Do you have an online portfolio somewhere?

INDIEPHANTOM by Captain Katanga	Nov 11th, 2005 11:58:18 PM
"the only thing going for this KONG is the effects"... er right. Were the lord of the rings films just showcases for effects? why would you say that? Clearly with those films Jackson managed to generate a lot of emotion and drama, and bring something worthwhile to a well known story...so why do you think this film will have none of that? Are you just relentlesly negative about everything? Surely, given the quality of Return of the king, theres a CHANCE that this film might be worth watching? People like you depress me. And if you do reply, try to do it without using your best playground put-downs like you did with the poster above...
James Newton Howard the greatest of all composers whoever compos by watashiwadare	Nov 12th, 2005 12:07:24 AM

Katanga by indiephantom	Nov 12th, 2005 12:34:26 AM
Certainly, you may be right about there being a chance it's all right. I'll probably cave in and download it for shits and giggles...but I happen to remember movies like "Jurrasic Park"...that film had a well-known cast and respected director and still it was only concerned with wowing us with the effects. The idea that this film is going to stand on its own and contain 'emotion' and 'drama' is funny to me. But then again, I felt the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was pretty to look at, but pretty much empty on every other level (certainly Ian McKellen brought emotion and prestige to Gandalf). I'm not saying this will be the worst film of the year, but I'm pretty damn sure it will be the worst KONG. Has there every been a film at this site that was hyped TO THE MAX for months that didn't end up being abso-crap? That's my point. If raging fanboys can drone on endlessly about how fucking amazing this film is going to be, I can represent balance by denouncing it and its shameless corporate existence. Since you don't want me to insult you, then I'll just call Harry an assbag again for emerging from his kiddie-porn infested dungeon to trump Jackson's masturbatory swill.

Sort of weird that they didn't mention they had switched composers. I know we all know what happened, but if someone is following the PDs in the future (it could happen), won't they think, "Hey, what happened to that nerdy-looking ex-SNL composer? And weren't they composing with the New Zealand Orchestra?"
What in McCarthy's name is Knhl Hohl?! by seppukudkurosawa	Nov 12th, 2005 02:41:01 AM
If the title was "Untitled Monkey Movie" then sure, you'd have a right to change it, but King Kong's a damn name ya stupid commie swine, you don't need to translate it. Goddamn. The next time some random movie about "obeying the supreme will of the people" crosses over from your shores, we're gonna have to rename it: "The Divine Republic". Fucking reds, what did you expect anyway. I hope you all freeze to death. Naw, just ribbing ya, you crazy commies.
I thought it was less of a translation and more of a DIFFERENT W by TheGinger Twit	Nov 12th, 2005 03:06:14 AM
JNH don't give no fuck about no half baked New Zealand Orchestra. The Man works of the latest technology to get the score perfect. You don't get that shit in some where house in back water Mountains and Ice sheets. Besides, the Man is possible working on 2 other films at the same time. In fact, I'd make a bet he was called off them to write this. The Score will be Tremendous! It'll be better than the film, let me tell you!

The ONLY thing I'm worried about with this project is the sc by Sheeld	Nov 12th, 2005 03:41:25 AM
Will the score be up to the standards of the rest of the movie I wonder. I love some of JNH's work, but King Kong needs an absolutely classic score, with very recognizable themes, and I don't know if that can be delivered in such a small time. Then again, he did it with Waterworld, where the score was easily the best thing about the movie. I just hope they're using the classic Steiner score as an inspiration. Iconic imagery should be accompanied by iconic music. Let's hope JNH can deliver.

R.E: Ginger Twat by seppukudkurosawa	Nov 12th, 2005 04:23:13 AM
I'm sorry the draining of your precious bodily fluids stunted your prose, it happens sometimes. We've all seen that Woody Allen movie with the quote from Balzac, said after the neurotic one gets down with a lady, "There goes another novel", though I doubt so many of us have actually read the book. As far as the translation comment goes, it was a fucking joke bruv. I used to live in Georgia so you don't think I'd pick up on the fact that they use a different script? I mean, people realised that your spiel on World War I being a planned conspiracy by the Illuminati was just you funnin' them, without having to call you a dipshit. Actually wait, you were serious about that!

we must remember this film is a story of "the beauty and the beast" (as was the 1933 classic) ie. it is about the beauty ann darrow played by naomi watts and the beast kong (cgi movements by andy serkis). cgi-kong should not be more (or worse solely) the focal point of this film than its real star/character naomi watts/ann darrow in any discussion on and publicity for this film.
I kinda like em by Novaman5000	Nov 12th, 2005 08:13:37 AM
The full KONG face shot of the US poster left me a little cold. I kind of like the shots of the two of them interacting... I think the one I like the most is the one where he's holding her in his hand. I just think it gives him more personality than him just snarling into the camera.
Tasko! Tasko! by BlueMax	Nov 12th, 2005 08:34:08 AM
Learn from your mistakes! Do not fall victim to the hype and slick poster images. If you line up with the rest of the chumps and pay to see this movie what will you get? Super slick CGI visuals (big deal - gimme old school FX anyday) a lame script that only hints at what a great adventure the original is and some new irritating characters. In other words, a major let-down. Just buy the Kong toys and have your own adventures.
The toys look kind of goofy by Citizen Arcane	Nov 12th, 2005 09:15:25 AM
All the Kong figures have swinging arms and kung fu grip and stuff so they all have these distracting joints and obvious buttons on them. And they're all based on the original design from the teaser so he has that snaggle tooth.

actually, i thought sith wasnt all that great, and definately didnt hold up upon repeat viewings. if you wanna talk about a movie thats all about the effects and cg, talk about star wars. so no, i didnt cry in sith, but i probably will in kong, im mature enough to be at ease with where i am in life and know that its ok to be taken up by a movie, go on its emotional rollercoaster ride, and enjoy every second of it, thats what movies are for right? and if you dont like aicn's constant coverage of kong, why dont you do something worthwhile with ur time like boycott the site instead of continuing to come back and post? i mean its because people like u keep coming back that this site is still running in all its kong propaganda glory. so if u dont like it.. dont come here! wow. what a concept.

Hey Harry by Knightsong	Nov 13th, 2005 12:27:14 AM
Does onyone else agree that Harry should just go ahead and post his review for Kong without even seeing the film? There's is absolutely 0% chance that he's not gonna like it. He loves Peter Jackson to death and, hell, the wall paper on his site is from the 30's King Kong. So I think Harry should just go ahead and post his review for Jackson's King Kong without even seeing it. It's gonna be a love letter anyway, regardless if the film smells worse than Kong's butthole. So I say, rather than make us wait you should go ahead and just lay it on us. That's my two cents anyway.

i thought that people here liked movies too but it seems that they hate everything.....i know they think they are awesome for coming to every KONG article and abusing it like it makes them cool (unfortunately they seem to forget that they are posting on aint it cool news...we have to be the most uncool people around!!)...but you know what - they are obviously incredibly sad and lonely people with no real lives. i mean why spend so much time and energy into coming here and saying the same tired shit over and over again about a film you seem to have no interest in. be honest now....admit it..you have nothing better to do do you? why come here and write "King Kong is of absolutely no interest to me".I mean if that is the case why did you click on the article? it is weird to me because if i see an article about something i am not interested in i don't fucking read it because I AM NOT INTERESTED IN IT. so why did you come here..there are two reasons possibly 1. you thought by writing that it made you better than the people who are looking forward to it to try and bum them out a bit or 2. because you a liar and i will see you opening night. surely you guys have better things to do than waste your time coming to every kong article to abuse it? surely......
slappy jones i commend you by puter1803	Nov 13th, 2005 03:04:20 PM
hes right. a perfect example is a new article today showing a new image from ghost rider. i was barely interested enough to click the link and see the image, then did my "meh" (without posting), and let it be, and now ill probably never go back to that article again. why? because im not looking forward to the movie, i have no interest in the movie, so it would be a huge waste of my time to continue to go back to that article and spread hate about "this is gonna suck" and "wha wha wha" crying like a sissy cause i think the cg isnt good enough and blah blah blah. i.. dont.. have.. interest in it, like 50% of you dont have interest in kong, so why dont you do as i do, and not bother posting about it! whats the fun in a site like aicn when you cant pick and choose which films you are anticipating and which you arent. anticipating movies gives me something to look forward to, i like the excitement it gives me, and its obvious that harry shares my anticipation (along with half of u in the talkback) about king kong. and u know what? its HIS site, he can choose to post or not post anything he wants (pretty much i think). if u dont like it, do as slappy said, go make ur own hate filled site about how shitty films are gonna be before they even come out. now im not saying that no matter what im gonna love kong, i anticipated rots in just the same way and now i realize its a flawed film and maybe didnt live up to my excitement in every way, but i still loved getting hyped over it in the months leading to its release. and if kong comes out being a big turd, i wont be afraid to admit it, but for now, every frame of film ive seen of this pic has me excited (as opposed to ghost rider), so thats what is driving this positive hype from me. so far.. it just looks good. thats my opinion, if u dont share it, thats fine, but please dont feel like u have to right post after post after post of how much this is going to suck, u dont know that yet. just like i havent said this is gonna be gold. ive only stated excitement in it, that doesnt mean im psychic and know it will either rule or suck, i just wanna see it.. now. that is all. (sorry for the long post, everytime i tried to end it i thought of more to say, u haters make me angry..)
right = write by puter1803	Nov 13th, 2005 03:07:22 PM

That poster is pretty sweet, Ringbearer by BendersShinyAss	Nov 13th, 2005 10:58:34 PM
The font is better. and Kong, with his smooth look and massive arms reminds me of the Kong I fell in love with as a kid. Did you make this? I know it's not real.
they screened ten minutes of unfinished footage to some uk repor by slappy jones	Nov 13th, 2005 11:09:11 PM
and so far they all have loved it....spoilers though so beware www.mirror.co.uk - look for the article "kong frontation" and another one here http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews /hi/newsid_4400000/newsid_4407 800/4407852.stm and another one http://www.filmfocus.co.uk/new sdetail.asp?NewsID=484 myfavourite quote is this ""The truth is, making a trip to see 10 minutes of unfinished footage of this film held more worth than seeing, in entirety, some of the films we've seen this year." can't wait.
or is it?? by BendersShinyAss	Nov 13th, 2005 11:09:55 PM
Either way, I think Kong might actually be an interesting film. Lots of city street rampaging and dinosaur butt kicking. Lets just hope the other 2 hours and 15 minutes is worth the price of admission.
Now THAT'S how Kong SHOULD look by BendersShinyAss	Nov 14th, 2005 12:47:18 AM
Much more monstrous -- not just a big ape. More of a prehistoric Mammal from the lost world he comes from. Oh well. I think LOTRs has the same problems. Those Olyphants sould have been more monstrous also.
That's right Goatzinger by mortsleam	Nov 14th, 2005 07:58:34 AM
I appreciate that Harry created this website, and gives us tidbits and scoops and reviews of movies he likes. But I in no way, shape or form trust his judgment or value his opinions. And the fact that he likes shitty brainless action crap is a big part of that. I use this site to get a look at things I'm interested in, and make up my own mind about them. And I've come to the decision, based solely on my own response to what I've seen here, that King Kong looks like a movie that I will in all likelihood enjoy. I'm not saying it will be second coming, I don't even think it will deserve to win any awards other than on a technical level, but I do think that it will be an entertaining film. Not because Harry said so and not because you and OrsonBearer say it won't, because none of your opinions matter to me whatsoever. Sorry I can't put that in dyslexic retard for you.
Wow, Second One looks like the Titanic posters with Kate and Leo by Drath	Nov 14th, 2005 09:04:35 AM
And James Cameron's ego has been physically represented!
hey kimble! by Malebolgia	Nov 14th, 2005 10:50:42 PM
why don't you photoshop Kong's nuts in your mouth, no matter how it turned out I.bet.you'd.love.it.
Ring, That's a Fan Poster by Dewder	Nov 16th, 2005 04:17:24 AM
And so I don't think you'll find a high rez version of it anywhere. I do like the iconic quality of the poster you picked out, but it does have some scale issues; he appears about twice the size in that poster as he does in the film. One of the things Weta tried to avoid in this version was the major scale changes that took place in the '33 original - in many scenes kong went from 25ft to more than 100ft in some posters. This time around, however, we kept him the same size throughout.
