The World of Kong Version 2.0 - FINISHED 12/17/06

[Raven Crowking]

I've finally found the time to watch my King Kong extended edition I received as a Christmas gift.

How is the extended version? The extended LotR movies answered almost all of my complaints about the initial release versions.

What sort of stuff was added?

Thanks for the high praise, Shade!

The Kong extended edition is rather a different beast than the extended LoTR movies. Rather than dramatically adjusting the plot and pacing, most of the additions to the extended King Kong are relatively minor. Some of them (a Ferrucutus is riled up by the sound of gunfire right after the expedition enters the jungle) are pretty disposable (because, I thought, the Brontosaurus stampede was a better introduction to the dinosaurs), but the highlight is a five minute long Piranhadon attack sequence in the swamp. It's exciting, well paced, and should've been left in the movie instead of, say, the ice-skating Kong sequence.

Demiurge out.

You earned it.

Yeah, the piranhadon attack was slick. Having never seen the non-extended version of the film, I'm suprised it wasn't included. It was one of the better monster encounters.

Awsome stuff, and I'm glad I looked here before I started my own lol. Anyways, what is the document everybody is talking about? If it is a combined manual of skull island, I would love a copy as well. Just checking first, but anyways yeah, awsome stuff!!! Great job.

The "document" is indeed the compiled Word document of all of the Kong stuff. I'll need an actual email address if you want it, since the "send USER a message" doesn't allow for attachments, but I'd be glad to throw a copy your way.

Demiurge out.

I hope to use a bunch of these critters in my next campaign, which I plan to have take place in large part on an island similar to Skull Island.

I'll just say three words:-

Isle of Dread

I must say I have found Demiurge's stuff very useful for the Isle of Dread and can't wait to kick off a Savage Tide campaign.

Ok so that ws more than three words.
