In Defense Of The King And His Jesters

i think you're misleading your readers about this film in the following areas:

1. the cast of this film is NOT jack black, ....then so on to the rest of the cast.

the official cast of this film as per universial pictures is naomi watts, jack black, adrien brody...and then the rest of the cast. naomi watts is the lead of the film, both jack black and adrien brody are supporting.

2. the plot of this film is NOT about a moviemaker carl denham (jack black) and his adventure.

the official plot of this film is about a down-to-her-luck actress ann darrow (naomi watts) and her tragic love story with an ape kong.

3. peter jackson picked and signed up naomi watts to play ann darrow LONG BEFORE he considered the respective roles for adrien brody and jack black.

Thank you. What you need to understand is the fact, several facts, dozens if not hundreds of facts about movie making in general and this one in particular. Jackson began his search for the actors with Jack Black. Everything else was who would fit-in, but he wanted Black to portray Denham. To suggest otherwise is he-said, she-said, so let's leave this momentous discrepancy for posterity to sort out.

How preposterous is the concept of a love affair between a woman and a giant gorilla. Don't answer. Suspensions of disbelief can only go so far.

Peter Jackson is a big fan of the original, and only King Kong. The vagaries of Hollywood did force him to turn the story of an adventurer finding such a creature into something the gals would sit through, but the history and lore of Kong remains the same no matter what obese Brit trifes with the legend. I have featured your email as something of a reference to the several I received on the matter to illustrate the paucity of understanding regarding what makes or breaks a theatrical presentation.

She fell in love with a giant gorilla after spending a couple hours with him. I see. Not even Hollywood could be that weird, and regardless of my guffawing Jackson's other misadventure with cartoons, I really didn't think that the Hobbits were gay and loved one another. That's one of his problems with living actors. Jackson wouldn't know a good performance if it bit him on his ample ass so pity and sorrow and sadness SEEM like love to those who's understanding of love is as shallow as his understanding of acting and drama.

This Kong saw Ann feeling so very sorry for the creature. In the real Kong, she ran like hell every time he gave her an opening, so tell me, what is easier to believe.

The studio won't lose any money over this bomb, but it was a great disappointment to them. The legend lives on, and someone will eventually remake the remake of the remake with professional entertainers who live up to that title in more than name only.
