King Kong Trailer to be shown during Fear Factor!
I was watching Fear Factor tonight, only because I just discovered my cable is actually hooked up, and they showed a little tease of the Peter Jackson King Kong Movie. It showed a T-Rex, like in Jurassic Park, sort of, I think this one was more yellow. Then it showed a hot blonde chick in despair, the T-Rex was going for the woman, suddenly this huge grey hairy leg plops down from the top of the screen, sort of like how in the first Jurassic Park, they show the T-Rex leg come from the top of the screen. It was as if to say, "Hey Steven Speilburger! My big hairy ass leg is way more badass than your stupid T-Rex." When the leg comes down, the startled T-Rex roars and looks up at Kong as if he must be huge!
Anyway, it was pretty cool nonetheless. The look of the film is awesome. I was so lost in the awe of seeing this, that I didn't pay attention to when they said they would show it. I know it will be during a Fear Factor episode, maybe this week, but I want to say that it will be next monday. Look for it! You can't go wrong!

As part of the ambitious, multi-pronged effort, the two-minute, 30-second teaser trailer will be broadcast at the same time on NBC, SCI FI, USA Network, Bravo, MSNBC, CNBC, Telemundo, Mun2 and Universal HD. The trailer will be offered in high-definition on NBC and Universal HD. The estimated potential audience of the combined networks would exceed 109 million viewers, surpassing the total distribution of any previous promotional broadcast.
The specific schedule for the airing of the teaser trailer on each of the NBC networks is as follows:

Doesn't seem to want to work for me.. "Quicktime is missing components.." but it's up-to-date. Is this encoded for mac in QT7? Or is there something special needed to play it. I usually can play anything thrown at me; this bothers me.
Yeah I'm looking forward to this also. I know absolutely nothing about King Kong. I hope Peter Jackson can make it a good popcorn flick at the very least.
