Miscellaneous Movie Musings

My only long standing complaint about Jackson's King Kong is just how horrible the dinosaur stuff on Skull Island was handled. I liked the stuff before the island and the stuff after the island. But most of the stuff on the island sucked.

The dinosaurs were a bit heavy handed. I liked some of it, but a few things definitely triggered my gimmick alarm. Piles of brontosauri, t-rex swinging in vines. Just unnecessary. I like the idea of increasing the dino roles, he just went too over the top for my taste.
