Well I liked it and I also liked the old 1930's King Kong aswell. If you ever seen the making of the 1930's King Kong you would be amazed on how much work is involved in doing a stop motion film. You learn to appreciate the film makers in the early days because they did it all by hand no matter how fake it looked. The people in the 30's thought it looked amazing. Because Kong in film history marked a milestone in visual effects, I have learned to appreciate Marian C Cooper's work. Peter Jackson brought back a classic tale to todays standard which to me is a fun idea.
Heck if you get the 1930's King Kong on DVD you can see the making of it and plus see Peter Jackson make the missing spidar pit scene in the same style as the 1930's. The animators at Weta loved doing that. It was like a break from the computer which is cool.
Those backgrounds of the jungles in the old 1930's Kong were the combination of large Matt paintings done on glass and miniatures. I am actually looking into doing glass painting myself in the style of Kong.
I have stories I am doing illustrations for and I think glass paintings will make for the best results for a lush scene.
