We’re a week away from the arrival of the possibly life changing trailer for Peter Jackson’s King Kong film, but as is always the case tidbits are already starting to leak out. The movie news site Movienewz (who has a spell checker these days?) showcased a clip of TV video with a few beautiful seconds of Naomi Watts, a T-Rex, and a shadowy foreground ape (ironically also the ingredients of my Mom’s ziti) and it’s available RIGHT HERE.
Look, it’s way too early to proclaim this as the best thing since Kim Coates, but between the knowledge that Peter Jackson is a demigod and that this, not The Lord of the Rings, is his labor of love makes the cockles warm.
I don’t like primates all that much (which explains why I can’t tell you Terry Labonte’s car number), but this is as "can’t miss" as it gets.
Enjoy the video and prepare for the seemingly endless wait for December.
