"King Kong" - monkey talk and movie talk

For me suspension of disbelief starts with Kong - if I accept him the rest follows easily

I don't know about that. (It's funny that I'm debating Kong's weight here.)
In filmmaking, there is always an attempt at adding plausibility to what's presented. If his weight can crush a theatre balcony, then he should break through the ice. It's the way he's presented in the film. He's not magic.
I don't know it I'm making sense here. Just because we buy the idea of Kong, doesn't mean he doesn't have to conform to the rules just like everyone else being that he's in our world...
