Now there's no denying that the 1933 King Kong is a classic but I have to say as far as the two remakes go I way prefer the 1976 King Kong over Peter Jackson's 2005 version. While it was a fine film and a project close to his heart there's some flaws that hurt the film for me. The 70's Kong on the other hand holds a nostalgic place in my heart.
Here's my ten reason's why I prefer the 70's Kong to The 2005 one.
10-Charles Grodin is less annoying then Jack Black.
9-Both movies take forever, but seventies Kong is a little shorter.
8-Jessica Lange.
7-No weak looking CG scenes-like the dinosaur stampede or CG Kong ice skating.
6-Adrien Brody isn't in it.
5-Kong stomps the hell out of the paparazzi.
4-Kong's big Petrox crown.
3-Giant fake ass RoboKong.
2-Rick Baker as Kong.
1-It stars the Dude! And The Dude Abides
