I’ve been looking forward to Peter Jackson’s remake of King Kong since I first heard about the project shortly after the last Lord of the Rings film was complete. I’m a big fan of Peter’s and I have a great amount of respect for him as a director.
Not long after production started on the film I found a wonderful website that offered lots of news/inside scoops on the production of King Kong as well as some short production diaries in video format. I was hooked. If you haven’t already seen them, you can check out the full list of production diaries on KongIsKing.net. The movie was released yesterday and the critic’s reviews have been astounding, some even calling it one of the best films of all time.
As much as I would have loved to have gone and seen the film on opening night, that’s one of several movies I plan on seeing with my dad when he gets into town this weekend. So, I’ll have to keep myself from thinking about it until then.
