Jackson's King Kong: 3 Hours.

[ddvmor]

I notice it's over-budget. Sounds like Jackson and the Studio execs are falling over each other to cover the extra costs!

Interesting proposition - this looks like this could be Jackson's Empire Strikes Back - or his Howard the Duck.

If it's a hit with Joe Movie-goer, then he's retaining his "Golden Boy" title. On the other hand, it could be a bad move to make it this long in the theater, and not just offer up about thirty minutes on DVD.

Either way, I'm on it like Kong on the Empire State, this, and Narnia too.

Sometimes its hard to tell what's studio hype and what's genuine excitement. It really sounds like everyone with a job at stake really thinks they've got magic waiting to happen with this one.

3 hours?!?!!!

That's it. I'm wearing Depends before I see the movie.

I like long movies. In fact, I love long movies. And Peter Jackson is the kind of person who really works best with long movies, it seems.

And besides, its King Kong!! This December's going to be great!

I'll sit this one out 'til DVD. Much as I like PJ's work, it's a two-time remake, and I've never been that keen on KK anyway. Sort of like Titanic -- the ship sinks, what's the point?

well this is a remake of the original and it looks to be a fantastic. I personally can't wait. A good old fashion monster movie creepy jungle crazy natives..lots of fun!

Wow, only he could make a 3 hour King Kong and it be a good thing.

The trailer looks nice, so it may be one of the few movies I see in the theater.

May I add, that there will be a buttocks strengthen excerise classes for the rest of the month. Followed by a self-impowering meditation bladder yoga discussion on how to; when to hold and when to go, discussion.

I'll need it. During the Return of the King midnight premiere, I had to pee twice. The theater lets us in at 11 so we didn't get too cold. During that one hour, I ingested way too much soda.

When I started checking out this thread I was just interested in info about the movie, but now I just want to know how come so many of you have bladder issues
