Peter Jackson's King Kong

I couldn't tell if I liked the new King Kong better or worse than the first. Even though it had color, and amazing graphics and animation, I liked the first one just as much. The story in both were the same even though there were a few differences and additions in Peter Jacksons's. One of the main differences in the story was the love aspect to the movie. In the second one Ann actually felt a connection and bonded with Kong, while in the first he was just holding her captive. One other difference between the movie was the spider pit scene. They said that the scene was lost in the first movie, so Peter Jackson attempted to recreate it in his. I thought that it would have been an accurate representation of the scene but there were more monsters in the second. The natives on the island were alot more hostile towards the people in the second as well as more scary. Another difference in Peter Jackson's movie was that there was an actor playing the main character. After Kong had been captured, the actor was given credit for fetching Ann and capturing Kong. While only Jack was given credit in the original. The graphics in Peter Jackson's movie were incredible, there were vibrant colors and cool effects that made the movie more interesting. The trees and leaves in the jungle looked real when they were not, and even the dinosaurs looked real. My favorite scene in this movie was the T-Rex fight. Even though it was not the same as in the original movie, Kong still won. It was really cool how the T-Rexes teamed up to fight Kong, and the whole time they were fighting was great action. When Jack finally reached Ann, Kong seemed alot more mad in this movie. It was too bad he was being attacked by the bats which was also a huge difference. Capturing Kong also took much more this time, and he broke free the first time they tried to get him. When they brought him to America it didn't seem like as many people showed up as the first but he still was a huge hit. I thought that when he broke free was really cool, because he tore the auditorium apart. But he eventually found Ann and made his way up the Empire State building. When he was shot down, it was alot more heartfelt in this movie too. He had such a better connection with Ann and the audience as he fell. Overall this movie was really good, and am glad it was re-done. Even thought I kind of liked the original, it was good to see some color and more action. There were a few scenes that I liked more which included the natives, and the T-Rex fight.
