OMG, I forgot about that 60's cartoon series! Thanks for sing-posting the theme song!
I just watched the new DVD of King Kong last night. (No big surprises for me, as the previously censored material had already been restored to the laserdisc version I have). I wish I'd splurged for the $40 "Tin" package that had 'Son of Kong' and 'Mighty Joe Young' included.
But watching the original just reminded me what folly it is to remake this film. Perhaps the primitive effects just scream out to Jackson that a remake is necessary, but the film is as iconic as they come and I believe any remake attempt is doomed to be inferior. Let's wait and see which movie is remembered in 50 years.
