That movie had a giant monkey? All I saw was a giant di...... Wait a minute, I thought you were talking about King Dong. I knew it did not have a monkey in it, I about wore out my vhs copy with the pause button.

As for King Kong I never really enjoyed it, the original or the recent remake. But alot of movies try to deal with the issue of human "greed". Problem is most movie makes are not philosophers (sp?) so alot of their point is lost on the more intelligent. And stupid people miss everything. So the "target" audience is basically the peers of the director.

I have been meaning to go to this movie, and almost went tonight but I got a quasi-migrane headache and had to sit in a dark room while I pondered the existance of dog (I am dyslexic). Nothing against these "fantasy world" type of movies but they are really not my bag. I love science fiction, but sometimes the plot takes a bachseat to the "impressive visual effects" and I hope that is not the case with this movies.

For the record most movies attempt to highlight human flaws. It is the base of "story" in general. Kind of like modern day fables, entertaining but also trying to impress upon us the importance to see the big picture.
