Story: Set in the 1930s, this is the story of a group of explorers and documentary filmmakers who travel to the mysterious Skull Island (near Sumatra) to investigate legends of a giant gorilla named Kong. Once there, they discover that King Kong is a real creature, living in a massive jungle where creatures from prehistoric times have been protected and hidden for millions of years. As the explorers search for the great ape, their quest puts them up against both Kong and his dinosaur enemies. Ultimately, it is the attention of a beautiful human woman that soothes Kong long enough for him to be subdued by the explorers and shipped back to New York, where his bleak future involves being put on display in front of humans... but how long can even the mightiest shackles of man hold back an ape 25 feet tall?

Release Date: December 14th, 2005 (wide) *May change*

Yes I heard about this movie about a month ago. Peter Jackson said in an interview that he will only do movies that he feels close too. King Kong, as was the Lord of the Rings, was a childhood fav of his.

Certainly has potential. Shame on me, for i have never seen the original movie. Sounds like it could be good.

Shame, shame on you! That' s like saying you never seen the original Godzilla!

So I shouldn' t confess that i haven' t seen the original Godzilla (or the remake)?

Not in my house! My son actually has all Japanese Godzilla movies. Me? I' d rather watch hmmmm, I' d rather think about that.

Slap me if you wish but... I just can' t see how this movie will be any good *runs and hides*
