Firstly, MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS TO ALL! And in case I don't post before the 1st..HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO!!!!
I just got back from watching King Kong..and I must say, BEWARE of this movie if you are 1. a very emotional person who cries at the drop of a fly or 2. an animal rights activist (yes, you know who I'm referring to). I cried, yes, I admit it. Heck, my brother and cousin teared and they're both guys over the age of 20. I guess what Peter Jackson was able to do was establish that relationship between the gorilla and the girl and touch the audience with the soft, heroic and childish side of him. Which was also why it was so unbearable to see anything happen to him >.< Then there's also Andy Serkis (the guy who played Gollum in LOTR) who was SO good at playing Kong this time. Personally I think Jackson did a pretty good job (again) with this film..he didn't disappoint me =p Guess this means he'll only be getting another handful of Oscars next year. And yes, I'm so getting the DVD when it comes out with the directors cut/extended version with special features and all.
Gah, I don't remember when it was the last time I cried so hard watching a movie. If I was watching it alone at home or something, I'd be sobbing so hard in the end. It really sucks to watch a movie and not be able to cry to my heart's content...that's what absolutely sucks about watching a movie in the theatres..with FRIENDS. It's torture I tell ya, trying to hold it in -_-
And people are purely STUPID IDIOTS who can't leave nature the way it is and who're DUMB enough to screw themselves over by intervening! I'm glad King Kong is a fictional story, because if it wasn't, I'd be so pissed off. But then again, to come up with a story like this is bad enough >.< But it does correctly portray humans being the greedy, selfish, conceited species we are. GAAH ok, gotta find something else to do and get my mind off this...(hm, maybe I should stop listening to the soundtrack first...) >.

I think it may have been that famous scene where King Kong climbs all the way to the top of a tower and gets shot consecutively by a bunch of military dudes.
