King Kong [DVD]

Product Information

From the run down Depression Era New York to the hellish Skull Island, the scenes are beautiful, detailed and captivating. Someone even asks Peter Jackson just why he is so open about the making of his films, and why he chose to allow these Diaries to be produced in the first place. It's effectively 90 seconds explaining about the shooting and 30 seconds for the actual commercial itself. Although the long-awaited release of the original 1933 King Kong is clearly timed to coincide with the arrival of Peter Jackson’s behemoth remake, someone at Warner Home Video must have deliberately scheduled this deluxe DVD’s street date as close to Thanksgiving as possible.

The towering new 4K restoration of the 1976 event movie reimagining of the classic monster story, KING KONG. This is just about the best presentation of King Kong one could hope for, and it not only serves as a respectful, essential edition of an all-time movie classic—not just a genre milestone, but a cinematic one—but builds a bridge between the original and Jackson’s upcoming version. For many of us—particularly in the New York area—our first memory of seeing the father of all monster movies is tied to Thanksgiving marathons (on Channel 9, the old WOR in New York) of Kong, The Son of Kong and Mighty Joe Young, the latter two of which are also debuting on disc separately and as part of a four-DVD collection. Since his debut, King Kong has appeared in eleven other movies and has taken on some very different roles, some portraying the jungle king as the antagonist and others positioning him in the starring role.

Whilst this is only for a few minutes, it’s a scene that will unsettle insectophobes (or even turn you into one). I like the feature but somehow I feel a historical look at the Ape and his influence would have been a better option. Let us just hope that it manages to condense some thoughts and feelings from the cast and crew into some more relaxed and composed documentaries, putting this huge undertaking into some proper context with the added benefit of hindsight.But, as it stands, these diaries are very extensive and entertaining and, in a great many ways, form the perfect Making Of, in that you see exactly how things were done, meet all the unsung heroes and have almost everything explained to you along the way. What he didn't count on were some scary natives who find that the comely Darrow looks like prime sacrifice material for a mysterious giant creature. Despite a few noticeable moments, which sadly haven’t got any better over time, the visuals for this film are incredible.

La versione Ultimate Edition include anche scene inedite, che rendono il film ancora più apprezzabile e che aggiungono ulteriori dettagli alla trama. That’s the risk of such a sharp transfer of a vintage film—the clarity reveals such details that went unnoticed in past versions—but in the case of both Young and Kong, it detracts not one bit from the enjoyment of the films themselves. We will introduce you exclusively to Newpay finance products provided by NewDay Limited under this Introducer Appointed Representative arrangement. Hubiera estado mejor poner en el menú todas esas escenas sin tener que ir a la película para acceder a ellas. Whilst it’ll never have the same impact and legacy of the 1933 classic, at least Peter Jackson had this in mind and pays loving tribute rather than trying to surpass it or make out to be the first film to feature the giant gorilla (cough, 1976 film).Plus could you really see Robert De Niro in a dinosaur stampede or George Clooney fighting giant wetas? All the aspects of the film’s production are covered thoroughly, but the centerpiece of the documentary is a stand-alone segment on the missing “spider pit” sequence, one of the Holy Grails of film historians and lovers since Kong’s release.

Like his own Heavenly Creatures, he is having fun making a nonsense of our notions of beauty and chastity. Naomi Watts stars as Ann Darrow, a vaudeville actress down on her luck in Depression-era New York until manic filmmaker Carl Denham (a game but miscast Jack Black ) entices her with a lead role. He finds the diamonds and something even more remarkable - Kong's son who has a winning personality and amazing strength. Naomi Watts beautifully executes all emotions needed with believability and is even better when she interacts with Kong.

Ann Darrow (Naomi Watts) only speaks three words to Kong (Andy Serkis) throughout her entire time with him: "Yes", "No", and "Beautiful". While this talk, like Kong’s, isn’t as thorough as the best historical commentaries, it benefits from the inclusion of Moore, who contributes a number of sharp and enthusiastic recollections of her Young experience. How about the chugging of the Venture as it steams through the seas with a sound very reminiscent of the spacecraft approaching Earth in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home?
