Never said it was stupid. I said i was put off by how anatomically correct he was in this new one, because i preferred the HUMANOID monster of the classic 1933. NO KIDDING he was supposed to act like a gorilla in the new version! Hence, I made the comparisons...that he walked on all fours, exhibited gorilla personality, he wasn't a MONSTER that the original depicted him to be. It's like when they remade Godzilla for the 1998 American version, they made him more realistic...acting like a huge lizard (who gets easily taken out) rather than a merciless unstoppable monster.

As for the natives, YES, they were totally different than the original one and my belief is Jackson did it to prevent any insensitivity complaints that the original faced for its depiction of African American islanders. Rather than show them as just some random island tribe that happened to be black, he wanted them to be more horrifying, act like bloodthirsty orcs...and therefore, letting the audience know there aren't people in this world who actually act like this. Just a perception.

OH WAIT, you haven't even seen the friggin film yet?! And yet you're already defending it? With what?! 😑

I haven't seen the film but I already know a lot about it,enough to back up my statement.

A good and accurate backup of a pervious statement cannot be made, unless you have really seen the movie. I Thought I knew alot about the film before I went to see it. But trust me, There is alot more to it. Especially in 3 hours.

Does Kong fight any other kind of dinosaurs besides the Venotasaurus?

Jesus, Keep the Grapics level down. Or don't mention those kinds of things at all.

A description is required to be graphic, otherwise it wouldn't be a written representation.

Don't call me 'Jesus', he's my son.

Don't be a smartass. Remember that this is a PG-13 forum.

What all dinosaurs appear in the film?

The original had different kinds. The brontosauruses (apatosauruses) were there, although depicted as swamp-dwelling monsters that bit people. There was a stegosaurus, a T-Rex, an elasmosaurus, and a Pteranodon.

The remake had more of the same kind. More brontosaurs, more smaller carnivorous dinosaurs, and more T-rexes....oh and one triceratops drinking water. There were definitely more kinds of other animals. Leeches, bugs, lizards, bats. I think the bugs were the scariest. The dinosaurs weren't terrifying, because they look and act like real animals...as opposed to real monsters (as in the classic).

In that case, the decription falls well within the boundaries. If my language was inappropriate, why was it not censored seeing as all the 'harsher sexually derived words' are replaced with '****'.

EDIT: If you're calling me out for using 'penis' and 'foreskin' a couple of times, then I suggest you edit your profile...half of your movie quotes are R-rated.

"Neck! Neck! Come in please..."

Indeed. I don't see how Ya Krunk'd Floo's post was not PG-13...

Those Movie quotes themselves aren't R-Rated. If I remember right, you can say the 'F word' 4 times before it's considered inappropriate. Plus the F words themselves are censored.

Well, 'penis' and 'foreskin' are not censored, therefore - according to your rationale - they can't be considered inappropriate. FACT.

An apology will suffice.

They aren't filtered I'll give you that. But inappropriate on the subject none the less. If you could refrain from using those terms in MDF, I'd gladly appreciate it.

Back on topic:

Who else thought it was lame when King kong fell off the Empire state building and didn't leave a crater or any form of mark on the street whatsoever?

Okay! That's it! I've had enough of this!

I'm going to see King Kong TONIGHT! ✅

That's what you've told me.....

what? 4 nights in a row? 😐

Man, all of them were great, but Watts was the biggest factor in making this film great.

I saw it today at a matinee.

There were a bunch of teenage girls in the back who laughed when Kong died.

Heartless bitches.

WTF?! I was seconds away from crying. How in this world could they laugh? That was one of the saddest death scenes in film history IMO.

O M G!

Spoiler:
King Kong dies?!?!?

That ruined the film for me. 😐
