It's a shame that King Kong wasn't turned loose on Washington D.C. today. Think of it ! King Kong -- sitting in on Congress and the Senate. I could picture Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi running for their lives. If I were Bruce Cabot and Fay Ray was Nancy, I'd leave her on top of the Empire State Building.
Yea I figured that out right after I titled it hahaha....that it's not the ORIGINAL trailer, but a trailer for a re-run a few years later.....still the best KING KONG movie ever~~~
@drbotanus That's correct. Original trailier is lost. As is obvious by the titles here (STILL the most amazing show on earth, etc) this is a rerelease (either 30s or 50s, hard to tell). My guess is 50s.
still more convincing than half of cgi movies today

I spliced this onto the head of my 16mm print of the movie. Something I'll never part with.

Thats not the original trailer. Its a re-release trailer.
I dont think anyone has found an original.
(I'm not B-busting. I just wanted to let you know.)
Kong Rules. Take it easy.
