This movie was incredible and I am really glad I saw the origional 1933 classic before I saw Jackson's version because there are so many quotes and tributes to the original such as the dialog between Baxter and Darrow on the ship when Denham is filming, "You don't much care for women..." is quote for quote taken directly from the original. This movie is incredible I loved the scenes in the beginning featuring 1933 New York, in fact this would have been a great film even if it didn't have King Kong in it. Jack Black is great in the role, which surprised me because I had heard critics appauling and disliking his casting, but I think he was perfect for the role as the glory-eyed, over-the-top, alcoholic, director. A perfect film and dare I say better then the Lord of the Rings films. And if you disliked this movie do us all a favor and go watch a "Weekend at Bernie's 2" or some other crap because you clearly have no taste for a great film, that far exceeds the original masterpiece.
