I was ragging on the action scenes and the content therein, the story of Kong and LOTR was pretty good as well as the acting, but the action and plot peaks and valleys were horrendous, and IMO, that is solely the fault of one Peter (over glorified) Jackson.
How many climaxes, tearful reunions and last stand prewar speeches were in LOTR ROTK? How many times did Froto and Sam look like they were going to kiss, hug or cry. I mean, they broke every rule in the filmmaking book and still came home with all the Oscars, it was disgusting. I could have really got into Kong if they would reduce or completely eliminate the ridiculous CGI scenes, models seem much better to convey depth and realism, the CGI looks 2-diminsional on the big screen and ruins the effect of putting me in a suspended disbelief mode, and my pointing and laughing out loud probably ruins it for others as well. Somebody on Peters staff should have laughed out loud during the first screening to show him how many would react to such a silly take on dinosaur behavioral habits and movements, I’ll bet some paleontologists spit milk out their noses during that scene.
