(Dec 19 05, 04:23)Very funny kuz...
That was a joke, right?

Umm, u didn’t start a thread on it did you? Just thinking, when the Gay marriage thing happened in the states, there were threads for weeks talking about the rights and wrongs. I honestly don’t think the Brit’s on this forum are gonna be morally outraged. Cos we’re better people. :P

this thread full of spoilers then?
and before anyone says it, I know the monkey dies.

Yeah, kuz spoilt the thread.
- KuzII0
no actually Nairn spoilt it by arguing with my uncontestable points
;)

(Dec 19 05, 04:29)No. I'm not that interested. Just your "up asses" comment had me laughing out loud.

it's more of a visual feast, kelpie - the story's ... well, it's 70 years old. :)
kuz - I went through a bit of a Conrad phase after 'doing' Victory for A level - the Secret Agent's a brilliant book too - especially for this age! :)
To be honest, I wasn't trying to make a point other than 'I don't see why issues of race are particularily relevant' to the movie. Only how we define humanity, or a lack thereof.
Your tone just makes me react this way sometimes.
one.

--------oooooookaaaaaaayy
still not read the thread, but I get the picture now.
Kuz. stop it.
- KuzII0
haha, rasko.
Nairn, i was just giving my critique of the film, and i do trip on shit like that. I guess you reacted like that cos you THINK i'm always bringing up race on this forum or something.
I was gonna say something else about how i think Jack Black's character saved the film by giving it that tongue-in-cheek quality. But i wont cos skt thinks i'm being a smartass.
(ps, Nairn, i just finished reading Heart of Darkness last week, so i guess it was in me ol nogging whilst i was watching the film).

My 2 cents: Meat fest.
This movie is f*ing insane and extremely intense. Definitely entertaining and does what a movie should do, but all of what happened was just horrible and almost too much. It's an f*d up story. My heart was pounding for much of it and I probably did cry for the chef guy *tear.* I loved his character.
Anyhoo, King Kong's likeness to a real ape was amazing, and truly, the movie was a meat fest. The CGI is so awesome that...well, you'll see what I mean by the meat fest. Ick.
Extremely intense and entertaining movie, but I don't know if I could see it again for a long while.

I'm definitely seeing this movie. It's probably amazing in theatres, but I'll be broke until after the New Year. But I'll find some way to watch it...
- kelpie0
it was the Late Review-esque speculation about racial undertones I wanted you to stop. Dafty; it's King Kong, not Birth of a Nation. pffft.

(Dec 19 05, 04:55)haha, I hope you mean beautiful woman + huge monkey, but not '
'together'...because that can get a bit disturbing...
