Is everyone as excited about Peter Jackson's King Kong as I am. The new trailer is out at the Apple's Quicktime site in High Definition and it is a beautiful thing to say the least. I attached a screen capture to get your mouth watering. Man this movie is going to rock![approve]

Oh the ingorance of youth.[:D] (or the shame of old age)

The origonal King Kong (1930's) had all kinds of dinosaurs in it. It is really an amazing film that is going to be released later this month. The 70's version was a terrible remake that cut out all of the good stuff. Those who have only seen that version are in for a treat as the orginal King Kong has all kind of cool monsters on Skull Island.

(I am embarrassed at my level of geektatude.) [sillyme]

Update: Here is the link to the 8th Wonder of the World

Actually, its very good advertisement for the movie, and it brings in extra money. Plus instead of having to run a major add campain for the game, they just casually advertise it, and it advertises the game, as well as the movie as well, so its like a bonus in a way.
As for the game, the graphics look good, but if they had more time on thier hands, I think they could have made it more detailed, and used some more graphical options for better graphics.

I just noticed that along with Jack Black, Collin Hanks will also be in this movie, both of them were in OC. Although these are 2 different kinds of movies, its cool to see them continue to work together.
